What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

Prisoners

I predict GG and Oscar noms for both Gyllenhaal and Jackman.

8.5/10

Sinister

Yep, I enjoyed it. Kind of figured out how it would end although

  Spoiler: ending spoilers 

I thought it would be the son, given his night terrors etc.

Solid film, though and Scott Derrickson did a nice job on it - looking at his previous credits, this must be his best film to date. Still a few too many jump scares, but it was well paced and different enough to be well worth a watch.

Jackman has a shot if the year remains light, but it won't. They'll get GG noms, Paul Dano might too.

Performances are all there but I was mixed.

White House Down

Super dumb, but just edges out Olympus Has Fallen in the fun stakes overall. Olympus still has the superior action set-piece with the opening attack and WHD has clearly been toned down for violence (I guarantee there's a harder cut coming to DVD), but this was still a passable couple of hours. The car chase on the White House lawn is probably the highlight, though there's a nice helicopter attack sequence too. The effects are nowhere near as bad as they seemed in the early trailers, in fact I thought the whole film looked pretty nice. Chan Chan is fine, but everyone else apart from James Woods seems to not have much to do, including Foxx. Always nice to see Jason Clarke as well.

Fun, but probably a once and done for me.

This is the End.

eh. It was okay. 25 mins too long.

This is Rob's Post.

Eh. It was okay. 1 post too long.

Seriously though, Totes agreed. Trim that shit down, felt like FOOOO-EVA

It lost some steam towards the end (ironic?) and I didn't care for the final scene at all, but McBride, Cera and Franco were all great. Also, Pineapple Express 2.

Fuck you, Backstreet's back.

Alright?

[Ben Thomas]

That was the kind of ending a Shrek movie would have. Trot out some ironic celebs and have a sing song - boom, you've got an ending!

[Captain Russ]

I think people give Rogen and his friendo more credit than they should be afforded.

[B_Metal]

I didn't really dig This is the End that much. It meandered far too long in the beginning, and other than Craig Robinson and McBride nobody really impressed me.

[FilmNerdJamie]

Fuck you, Backstreet's back.

Alright?

I'll never let you go, Russ.

It had it's moments but it was too long and not all that funny in long stretches.

That being said, it was nice to have Jay in a bigger role. I've liked him since Undeclared.
