Bourne Supremacy and Catwoman
 

Has anyone seen either of these? How are they?

Halle Berry. In a leather catsuit. How bad could it be?

Evidently pretty bad.

Well, me to violence is kinda like most guys to sex, so as long as it has action, and not "sexual" action, I'm fine with that. I don't care about the story, acting, or whatever, just give me the action, which is sort of why i really want to see Bourne, but the bonus is great story and acting and such.

Wait wait wait. Let me make sure I understand this. Did you just say you prefer seeing violence onscreen than sex?

The reviewers are feasting on this movie like a zombie on fresh meat:

One of my friends wants to see Catwoman only because he'll be able to see Sharon Stone get kicked in the teeth.

Ooh, that's harsh. Why doesn't he like Sharon Stone?

Beestie, that whole post is hilarious! :lol:

Haven't seen either yet (will probably wait for it to come on cable or DVD, like I always do LOL), but I just saw the first Bourne movie the other day on cable, and I thought it was excellent!!! Matt Damon kicked 100 kinds of ass in this. And I love "spy" type movies with neat gadgets and stuff (a la James Bond, etc.).

As far as Catwoman, I don't give a damn about the story...just seeing Halle Berry kick some ass in that suit will do just fine, thanks. :D I think she's a great actress, although I would not have picked her for the role of Storm in XMen, but she did a good job in it.

Ditto, why even ask?

That's correct, as strange as it sounds.

I saw Bourne Supremacy tonight... or should I say that I _tried_ to see it. The storyline was fine, but the cinematography was absolutely hideous -- it was if the entire film was made with handheld cameras, carried by epileptics, standing on the bed of a moving pickup truck on a bumpy road, during an earthquake. There was one fight sequence in particular that was an utterly disjointed mess, but the entire film was jittery; it _had_ to be intentional, but I haven't the slightest idea why.

I went to Hersheypark two weeks ago, rode coasters and other rides that'd pull your teeth out, and I was perfectly fine. THIS movie, on the other hand, literally gave me motion sickness; the shakiness was _that_ bad. I had to go out for a breather after about an hour, came back, then left entirely.

Pity, as the book was good.

I honestly disagree, I thought that however "motion-sickness" inducing the hand-held scenes were, I think that the reason for including them is to make the feel of the commotion and chaos as real as possible. I know exactly the fight scene you are talking about, as I heard grunts and smashes and such and I saw blood on both faces, but at the time of the fight i had NO idea who as getting knocked. My review of the movie is "This movie redefines the meaning of intensity." While parts of the story were a bit confusing, I got most of the story and action scenes were great. I would give it a B+

Disagree if you like. EVERY scene was filmed on a handheld, even the quiet ones.
