I need some new movies to rent.. :) I wanna see Maid in Manhatten.. anything else good that you've rented lately????

The Count of Monte Cristo was pretty good.

We just saw "The Ring" which was creepy but good and "Changing Lanes" which was ok

Hindy

Van Wilder - NOT FOR KIDS, hilarious

About a Boy - Very good even if it has Huge Grant in it

Sweet Home Alabama - Funny and fun to watch

The Bourne Identity - Lots of Action, good story, fun

I Am Sam - Sad, Funny, Fun to watch, Sean Penn is amazing

The Banger Sisters - ok, not worth the $3.99 I paid, sleazy Goldie Hawn was annoying! I spent the movie doing a make-over on her in my head

The Count of Monte Cristo - Very good

Kate & Leopold - all around great!

Hannibal - I love the Lecter series, not as good as Silence of the Lambs, but worth it for the $ I spent to buy it ($10)

Life as a House - Wonderful!

kater07.. you've watched alot of movies lately!! LOL But I've seen all of those except for I think Life as a House and The Count of Monte Cristo. I do think DH has seen the Monte Cristo one though..

I'd really like to rent The Ring, but DH is a weanie.. LOL He won't watch scary movies with me.. me on the other hand is a horror movie freak!!!! :D

I have Pay Per View :D and a LONG list of movies I want to see!

LOL we got free pay per view coupons in the mail today from directv, so I plan on getting one free movie a month until May or June. Of course I need to call them and complain about the fact that one coupon expired 3/31 and I didn't recieve it until then.. lol

Well, we rented

Ghost Ship~kinda creepy, and very graphic in nature. I am not a weak-stomached person, but the things they showed kind of got me woozy. ;) Otherwise, very good.

Joy Ride~DUMB! It's really weird, I wouldn't recommend it though. :(

Half Past Dead - it's a Steven Segal and I usually hate action films, but this one was a little bit interesting...more so than any action I've seen inawhile...

Pluto Nash or something like that with Eddie Murphy--I think he's so funny usually but I actually thought this was pretty dumb.

I Spy-Eddie Murphy and Owen Wilson- LOVED IT...way funny and wanna watch it again.

Simone-Al Pacino... I didn't think I would like this but it ended up being VERY interesting and I'd definitely watch it again...

We bought the Ring and I usually LOVE scary movies but I decided it was WAY too disturbing so I sold it to my sister because I didn't want it in the house after that!

And lastly, White Oleander--very interesting and I'd watch it again, but kinda weird- the acting was great but it was more sad and weird than I expected.

:) ENJOY!

I agree... that was pretty weird and sad.. but I enjoyed the movie.

Maid in Manhattan~ Very cute romantic movie

8 Mile~ this was interesting to see

Swimfan ~ eh not that great kinda predictable, but okay


I want to see
The truth about charlie w/ mark walburg
Two weeks notice


Valerie

We borrowed Ghost Ship last night. I didn't enjoy it. It wasn't scary at all and went downhill quickly. 20 minutes in I was hoping they would all die so the movie would end faster...:p

Changing Lanes was sad but really well done, we enjoyed that a lot.

The Ring has one incredibly scary part (at the end) that made it worthwhile but we went to the theatre for it-I won't have that movie in my house :O

we just bought treasure planet so i can't wait to see it...

recently we saw:
darkness falls--i closed my eyes a lot but the end was more stupid than scary

trapped--very good, edge of the chair thriller... i totally liked it but trying to move away from rated R

possession--too much s*x and so i hated it

anyone else seen good ones recently?

I want to see two weeks notice--it's out on dvd now.

I rented A Walk On the Moon and WOWY WOW WOW.
I wouldn't watch it with the kids, don't have a DH either, but boy does this movie show his best features.
Tough movie with family issues, but good if you are a Viggo fan.
just my 2 cents

I just watched Far from Heaven (Julianne Moore, Dennis Quaid) last night and I thought it was really well done.

I just saw Spy Game which was really disappointing. The plot they had going to try to hold everything together seemed very contrived.

Ransom - that was ok, nothing spectular.

Vanilla Sky - Pretty good. Had an interesting twist that I didn't see coming (of course, I never see the interesting twists coming :) )

We usually rent a handful of movies when dh gets paid, so we've seen quite a few lately.

White Oleander-Really good, stayed pretty close to the book which I like.

The Rules of Attraction-We liked this. It was kind of depressing though, at least for me.

Red Dragon-We liked this one too.

Jackass-Stupid!!!! I can't believe dh talked me into renting it. It was awful. I have a very strong stomach and I almost threw up a couple times.

Abandon-Ugh...we made it through 40 minutes or so and went to bed. Boring, slow...we couldn't wait any longer to see if it got better!

We rented Road to Perdition but haven't watched it yet.

L.I.E-very disturbing. I am not sure how I feel about this one.

I know there's more but those are off the top of my head.
