This is a fun kung-fu fantasy with a little bit of attitude thrown in. The RZA wrote & directed it and Quentin Tarantino produced it so you know what to expect in terms of atmosphere, dialogue and bloody action. Also, Lucy Liu proves once again she is both cool & hot at the same time. Recommended for fans of Kill Bill, Crouching Tiger, House of Flying Daggers and any other over-the-top martial arts epic.

WTF man? This is the whole reason the thread exists! I personally love reading people's thoughts & opinions on movies and the more they have to say, the better. I'm only bothered that you don't post more.
Loved it. Bonnie stole the show.
6/10
Flight – good, but not great movie. Denzel is great as always, but I actually thought the cast as a whole was pretty weak. Phoned-in performance by Cheadle (rare), and Goodman needed more screen time! The 10 minutes or so leading up to the crash were gripping and intense, but the rest of the movie was unable to capitalize on that high mark.
7/10
Seven – a top-tier film in its respective genre, right up there with Silence of the Lambs in my opinion. Fincher is one of my favorite directors, and I thought Freeman, Pitt, and Spacey were all outstanding. I challenge anyone to watch the first 30 minutes and then turn away.
8.5/10
The Number 23 – another pretty decent Schumacher film. Carrey’s by far the strongest point in the movie, the rest is just okay. I liked the “dark” nature of the film, but the whole amnesiac guilt thing is getting a bit played out. Both this and Dream House tried to emulate The Machinist, and they come up well short.
6/10
House at the End of the Street – a pretty good little twist on an otherwise typical horror movie. I thought it was pretty effective, despite not being very gory at all. I think it had more potential than it showed. It also kept me guessing, which is a rarity in horror movies.
5.5/10
Cross – an extremely ho-hum cop/detective thriller. Very poor casting with Perry, but I’m not sure who’d have been better, honestly. Denzel is too obvious, Freeman is too old, and Jackson’s not made for this type of role, so I don’t guess there’s much cause for complaint. They could have considered going with a nobody, but it doesn’t really matter now. Matthew Fox is passable as the psychotic hitman, Picasso. They tried throwing in some type of plot late in the film, but they would have been better suited just accepting it for what it is.
5/10
Munich – very intense, mostly factual film about the Israeli Mossad agents tasked with taking down the Arabic terrorists who killed some of the Israeli athletes/coaches competing in the 1972 Olympic Games. Anchored by a very strong performance from Eric Bana, it does a very good job of telling a true story, while interjecting enough action (not unnecessarily so) to keep it a little more entertaining for some. It didn’t have a strong conclusion, and was a bit talky sometimes, but I still enjoyed it very much.

Here Comes The Boom - 7/10
This movie could have been a lot better, had they casted a more passionate cast. Blake Lively ruined the whole narration aspect for me, and Taylor Kitsch as usual turned in a dreary performance. Good story and nice visuals so all in all not a bad flick.
