Since January 1st, 2008, I've been keeping track of all the films I've watched. Because I don't feel like taking the time to highlight each movie up until this point, I will start at the previous week, Week 29 and continue from now on.
328. The Dark Knight (2008)
-My second time seeing it. Such a great movie. Although not good enough to be considered 'best film of all time'.
329. Teeth (2007)
-The storyline attracted me to it. Within the first 20 minutes I wanted it to be done. I hated this thing so much.
330. Heima (2007)
-Such a beautiful documentary for such an amazing band; Sigur Ros. Check them out if you haven't yet.
331. La Haine / Hate (1995)
-One of the best French films I've seen. If there's one thing I'll remember about this movie years from now, it'll be the ending and how shocked I was after it was all said and done.
332. À ma soeur! / Fat Girl (2001)
-There was something sad in the way that the relationship between Anais and her older sister works out. I can't quite place my finger on it. The whole mood of the story is it's strongest part. Even a week after watching it, it still lingers with me.
333. C.R.A.Z.Y. (2005)
-I had heard much about this before but now finally got around to watching it. I enjoyed this quite a bit. It deals with real people and real family issues.
334. Me and You and Everyone We Know (2005)
- When I first saw this when it came out, I really liked it. After viewing it for a second time, I can't remember why. It's filled with unrealistic dialouge and characters I didn't care about.
335. À bout de souffle / Breathless (1960)
-What had been hailed to be the 'crown jewel' of the French New Wave was also the last thing I saw before I feel asleep on Thursday. I think I'm going to have to give this another try.
336. Son of Rambow (2007)
-After the rave reviews and catchy trailer, I had been looking forward to this. But after finally viewing it, I was left unfulfilled and wanting something more.
337. Phone Booth (2003)
-Are there plot holes? Sure. Is the story likely? Nah. I mainly watched this for mere entertainment and nothing more.
338. Dazed and Confused (1993)
-Immediately reminded me of American Graffiti except this took place in the 70's. I always fall for the movies that focus on how familar characters interact with one another. Although American Graffiti played this out much better, I thought this was pretty alright.
339. Batoru rowaiaru / Battle Royale (2001)
-Although the dialouge seemed kind of cheesy, I can look past that because this was one hell of a ride. A group of 9th. graders put on an island and ordered to kill each other. Man, if only America had the balls to put something like that out.
340. Dazed and Confused (1993)
-Yes, I watched it again.
341. Cool Hand Luke (1960)
-My dad told me I would like this film. I did more than like it. Although many of us have never worked on a chain gang, the theme and spirit that this movie has is something that we can all relate to.
342. 21 (2008)
-The only reason I watched this is so I could have an opinion about it when I hear kids talking about it in the hallways. I thought it was decent. Although it had many cliches, it was a little better than I expected it to be.
343. Vanishing Point (1971)
-One of the first movies from the 70's that I fell in love with. Probably one of the best road chase movies out there, it's easy to tell why Quentin Tarantino decided to use it as his inspiration for Death Proof.
344. Casablanca (1942)
-Classic, classic, classic. What else can I say?
345. The Breed (2006)
-Such a horrible movie. Don't ever watch it.
