In Time

Interesting concept, I think this goes side by side with Equilibrium.

I was 10 when I went to the cinema watch this movie for the first time, and to this day it still is the deepest movie I've ever seen. I had the book at my home but I lost it while moving out and unfortunately never got to read it (yet). The plot is awesome and it's based on true science - the factorization into primes, for instance, that the aliens use to communicate with us, was actually tried out (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecibo_message) and you can learn more about it in a fascinating paper called "A Tale of Two Sieves" by mathematician Carl Pomerance:

"The cardinality of 1679 was chosen because it is a semiprime (the product of two prime numbers), to be arranged rectangularly as 73 rows by 23 columns".

@BenFranklin: Thanks for the suggestion, regarding the DNA - I saw a similar theory in Through the Wormhole I think (or was it NOVA ScienceNOW?) S02E09 or S03E02 but I Googled a bit and I think they haven't found an intelligent slope in our DNA plotting, the frequency seems to be near-randomic.

Before Midnight

I've loved the first two Before movies, but this one kinda felt short... Don't get me wrong, it was still great, but I didn't saw the "magic" I saw on the first two.

Incredibly beautiful and profound... So much truth!

I highly recommend this to everyone feeling like they are still growing up.

Jack Reacher

Fantasy is missing in the Genres!

Was expecting a more realistic movie, the plot was just too convenient for Cruise.

Matchstick Men

This movie is awesome, I highly recommend it.

Boss

Just started watching this, Kelseys' voice gives a new dimension to his superb acting.

Connie is also an excellent actress, you can see her facial expression subtly change everytime she's alone with Tom.

And the camera work is just superb as well.

Lord of War

Agreed, this is my favorite Cage movie.

The second one is Face Off, and the third is National Treasure. xP

Argo

IMO, Django should have won the best motion picture award.

However, Argo is quite good as well (way better than Lincoln) and it kinda makes up for Affleck.

Well, I enjoyed this movie...

The Incredible Hulk

This movie is destined to fail no matter what lead actor they choose.

In the end, Hulk has its own face, he's pretty much speechless and also quite inexpressive in terms of acting.

Lady and the Tramp

Epic!

Pretty good premiere, the rest of the episodes are just going down the hill.

Don't waste your time with this.

Parks and Recreation

I'm currently watching 4x08 and I'm loving it.

This is like The Office, only dumber and a bit less funny.
