One reason Woody Allen started to bore me, in revisits I mean, and subsequently his latest releases. Martin Scorcese. His take on New York (Mean Streets, Taxi Driver) vs Woodsters (all of dem Noo Yawk pictures).

And... Spike Lee/Coppola/Lumet..
Win-Win. Mccarthy makes another 'visitor' film, easily his weakest but still a enjoyable yawn like Giamatti's uneasy & uncontrollable grin
Midnight run..Top entertainer..
Deniro is the man..
Four Rooms
Somehow I never watched this film until today and the DVD in which I have the film states 6th June 09. May be I just wanted to have one QT film which needs to be watched. Now I have none. Loved the 1st and the last segments. 1st one was very hot for some reason, not just the nudity something else just kept entertaining me. :P
The last segment which was very obvious that it was directed by QT (which I dint know prior) was a riot. The last one minute monologue was better than the best chase scene I've watched. And the usual neglection of the actual subject and it getting just two-shots in the entire section was so Tarantino. In the 'misbehavers' segment the little girl was very cool inspite of her grown-up attitude. But except for QT's segment I dint find the movie that funny. It was certainly very entertaining but not that funny.
The descendants on big screen. Very nice. Works mainly because of the performances. Clooney and Ms. Woodley were fantastic. In fact this film should bag all the best acting ensemble awards. Set of interesting characters/events around a dying woman. Fascinating at places, quite warm in a few and a little boring in a few. Loved the film.
Have to see the descendants. It is running over here.
Living Daylights - 4/5 Fantastic. My fav Bond movie in last 30 years. had really nice locations and action sequences. certainly much better than the tame versions from Moore era.
2nd fav in 30 yrs?? License to Kill.. Dalton was a terrific bond.
The Grey. Good. Not in a mood to investigate any angles, metaphysical, metaphors etc., It seems there was a three second shot AFTER the end credits and I missed it as I was hurrying for offshore call. It seems that shot is also very metaphorical. (Even me leaving before that shot is also some metaphor it seems). Feel very betrayed that I am not thinking about this film at all.
But yeah, good film.
