^ B-movie is the right description. Which I guess is not always a bad thing. I did not like the movie as a whole but Downey never disappoints, he was good in the movie.

Well...you didn't like Kiss Kiss bang Bang so we might have a difference of opinion. But Meet Monica Velour wasn't really laugh out loud funny (at least not to me) but it had some amusing moments and it was a tale that actually had a moral and was entertaining also. Kim Catrall was very good and her character was completely different from Samantha (Sex And The City). She had to abandon any vanity and act from her heart. I would recommend it and if you don't like it you can tell me I have lousy taste.

Yes, I reversed myself a little on KKBB. I just thought the plot was pretty weak but it was fun to some extent. Like I said, I like R.D. Jr. From his first movies of the 80's (remember Weird Science?). I thought he would never snap out of the drug thing. But like what he has done with his sobriety today. People like that give me hope.

Yeah if he had continued on his downward spiral he would have ended up in jail or dead.

He did end up in jail for a few months in the mid 90s.

Currently watching Apollo 13 on Blu ray. Great stuff!

Until i watch the film i will continue to assume that it is a film made to show off the effects of 3-D and have an average storyline. To me it looks like Transformers, placing too much emphasis on the special effects in a bad way.

I'd give that a 10/10. Everything was fantastic about this, great humour, characters, storyline, direction, the lot. I rewatch The Crazies which is still very good. I also watch Fast Five which is a fantastic action film and has a great rewatchability factor with great comedic elements and a perfect unpredictable ending. I watched most of Blade Runner and it bored me, i haven't decided to whether to watch the rest of it yet or not, it looked good and there was something a bit captivating about it, other than that it was just dull and pretty actionless.
