My son requested Moulin Rouge. He said that it was the kind of movie that would be fun to make fun of if we hated it. I imagine it won't be on very long.

Ocean's Eleven verged on the truly terrible but son and hubby enjoyed it. They don't mind the plot inconsistencies and the suspension of belief in reality that the film required. I still don't think Brad Pitt can act.

My First Mister and Donnie Darko are both really good.

I thought the sets were gorgeous and the cinematography was excellent. Those were the only positives that I saw. I didn't even mind the modern music at the Moulin Rouge. I couldn't stand the overly emotive acting, and the terrible dialogue (can speaking in song titles really be considered dialogue?). We were hoping for Plan Nine From Outer Space bad, but this one was just boringly bad.

If you like film noire you'll enjoy The Man Who Wasn't There.I liked it a lot.
