    I can't wait to see Gatsby! I've heard it was pretty Boom or Bust opinion wise.

     

    Reception has certainly not been positive thus far.  It being overly artsy is basically a given with that director.

     

    One of the more interesting critiques of the movie is that the portrayal of Daisy is whitewashed and the movie lost the opportunity to explore the glorification of one you love but can't have, or something along those lines.

    I watched Once Upon a Time in the West.  It was a great movie, but The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly was better.  I thought this one could have been shaved down a lot time wise, but the way he built tension was excellent.  That final showdown was a great scene, but he had a few endings and let it run for too long.  I can see why it's considered a classic though.

    Glad I didn't let my friends talk me into seeing it.  I went to Zero Dark 30 instead.

     

    I would have preferred seeing Zero Dark (the last) Thirty.  The rest of that movie doesn't live up to the final scene, which for me was one of the more emotionally evocative pieces of cinema that I've seen.

    Watch Iron Man 2 again, so you can be set for the new one.

     

    I literally just did that tonight.

     

    I also watched Bernie.  I'm not sure how to classify it, but it was great.  For all the Jack Black haters, especially those who say he can't act, check it out.

    Yeah thats true. If you're up for that kind of Steve Carrell movie, Crazy Stupid Love is very good. I'd have to say it's one of, if not my number one, favorite rom com.

     

    Crazy Stupid Love is really great.  It's a bit atonal from one hour to the next, but it's still really enjoyable.

    I read the other day Will Smith was supposed to play Django but he turnt it down because (paraphrasing here) "it was brilliant writing but it's not the lead role" which is pretty pathetic and wrong to me. I think he would've done great playing that character though.

     

    Will Smith would have been a terrible Django, the dude has no edge.
