RE: New Movies...
300 = Very good movie, must see.
Smokin Aces = I really enjoyed this movie and was suprised and how well done some of the acting was, watch it.
Ghost Rider = The acting in the beginning made me wanna walk out, but once Cage came along he fixed it back up, it was a decent movie... had its moments. No clue whether or not if followed the comic or not but it was "entertaining" nothing great...
I really wanna see Spiderman 3... I've enjoyed the last 2 a lot and this upcoming one looks VERY interesting

300 was two hours of kickass. Everything about it was stylized.

Regarding Premonition, Deja Vu etc - there are only so many ways that Run Lola Run or Sliding Doors can be remade, and quite frankly I didn't think that hollywood was intent in finding out just how many times that concept could be rehashed.
I had never heard of those 2 movies. Had to google 'em.ORIGINAL: HansBlix

Franky, the descriptionsI read of the movies didn't make them sound too interesting.
If I come across them, I'll check them out, though.

I dont know if its out on video yet, but Blood Diamonds starring Leonardo DiCaprio is an EXTREMELY good movie. Like I've said in past posts, I'm a huge movie guy, and DiCaprio's acting in this movie is superb. Its hard to imitate an african accent, and he does it perfectly. Definately a movie to see.
RE: New Movies...
Departed
Really good movie with an amasing cast.
300
On of the best movies i have seen in a wile, Alexander sucked and Troy was just ok but300 was a truly great flick. But ImGreek so I have know the story of "threakosa" greek for 300, sence I was a kid.
Ghost Rider
Was entertaining but not even comparable to movies as good and Departed and 300.

The Queen - obviously meant for Brit audiences, portrays the inner bickering of the Prime Minister's office in a 7th grade Civics book style, portrayal of royal family slightly more convincing.
The Depaahted - overrated, unimaginative, lacking any discernable directorial or cinematographic style. Clean, well-lit sets make film seem like an episode of Law and Order, while the stench of the actrors' fear of screwing up a line can alnmost be felt in the theater. Unconvincing but funny dialogue makes up for most of the firm's shortcomings. A supersize serving of cliched surprises at the end stretches the suspension of disbelief to the breaking point.
Death of a President - a stunning and disturbing cinematographic achievement, takes the mockumentary genre to a whole new level. Unique in that it demonstrates just how unrealistic seemingly believable action thrillers are.
The Prestige - ambitious, but ultimately fails to deliver a powerful, well, Prestige at the end. This film has an identity crisis, is it a sci-fi film or a human drama?
Borat - clearly produced for theater release, as opposed to the TV series where all of Cohen's characters aren't after just just gags, but provide powerful social commentary.

No, I'm just capable of describing films using terms other than "awesome" or "sucked"ORIGINAL: scg87Wow, so are you Siskel or Ebert???
And Gene Siskel, if I'm not mistaken, died a few years ago.
