Re: Rate the last movie you saw
I like it when it is used effectively. The Marvel, Star Trek and Pizar films look fantastic in 3d. I have only ever seen Avatar in 3d. I think i went to see it at the cinema 9 times and then i bought an active 3d tv and 3d bluray player and bose surround sound system so i could watch it again.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
The Mummy: 6/10
Wasn't what I expected it tbh. It was nice and dark which is what I was hoping for but they tried to blend it in with some cheesy moments like the Brendon Fraser movies and it just didn't work. Like Batman vs Superman, this is clearly supposed to setup the Universal Cinematic Universe (which I know nothing about) with Jekyll and Hyde and it doesn't do anything for me.

It is on my to do list and I have been putting it off because I was worried about that. I watched the new Underworld film last night and didn't think much of it. I still need to watch Resident Evil and xXx and I am not expecting much from them either. If you would like a pleasant surprise though, you should watch John Wick 2.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
The Mummy - 3/10
Yep despite saying in the other thread that the trailer put me off, I still gave it a chance and of course it failed miserably. I actually liked Brendan Fraser's versions, the theme, the setting, everything. This was nothing remotely close and was merely Mission Impossible: Mummy Protocol.

From Foxnews:
Quote:
Warner Bros.' "Wonder Woman" wrapped up Cruise's "The Mummy" at the weekend box office, pulling in an estimated $57.2 million in North American theaters, according to studio estimates Sunday. Universal's "The Mummy" looked its age, selling a relatively feeble $32.2 million in tickets in its debut weekend.
That couldn't compete with "Wonder Woman" in its second weekend. The Gal Gadot superhero film, directed by Patty Jenkins, has quickly earned $205 million domestically in two weeks.
The poor North American opening for "The Mummy," which cost an estimated $125 million to produce, meant a weak start for Universal's ballyhooed "Dark Universe."
"The Mummy" is intended to launch a new, Marvel-style connected franchise that resurrects many of the famous monster characters — including Frankenstein, Dracula and The Invisible Man —from the studio's vaults.
Universal could still point to strong ticket sales overseas, where "The Mummy" grossed $141.8 million in 63 territories, including $52.2 million in China. According to Universal, it's the biggest worldwide opening for Cruise, whose star power shines brightest internationally where audiences have been more forgiving of the actor's baggage.
But critics slammed the film, directed by Alex Kurtzman; it has a dismal 17 percent "fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences agreed, giving "The Mummy" a B-minus CinemaScore.
Universal distribution executives trumpeted the film's international performance while acknowledging the North American gross left something to be desired. But should there be any doubt, it's still full-steam ahead for the Dark Universe. Johnny Depp is already signed up to play the Invisible Man, as is Javier Bardem to play Frankenstein's Monster. "Beauty and the Beast" director Bill Condon is set to helm "Bride of Frankenstein."

You are thinking of Fast and the Furious (which was really really good). This is the third installment of the xXx franchise. Previously there was xXx (which was excellent snd what i always wanted James Bond to be) and xXx: State of the Union.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
I liked the latest xXx movie (its the only one of the series I have seen).
Went to see Wonder Woman on Sunday.
Good action movie, slightly different to my expectations - 7/10.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
yup, I was well chuffed with myself that I went to see it at the cinema. It is one of those films/sequels where you go in not expecting much and then you get blown away.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
I did also really enjoy xXx 3. Was a daft but fun film and what the second one should have been.
Wonder Woman = 8/10
Cracking movie from start to finish. really well done origin story too.
