What Are You Screening?


We don't do a lot of movie reviews here about billiedoux.com. TV is just too much fun. But we do like to hear from you about movies you've seen. We can all use this thread to rant and rave about recent (or not-so-recent) films.

Do you want to see a particular movie reviewed? Drop us a note in the suggestion box!

I saw Pandorum last night on DVD, and I can't recommend it. The good sci-fi elements plus Ben Foster and Dennis Quaid that could have made it a decent movie take a complete back seat to monsters and repeated fight scenes.

It's not a movie, but I'm not sure where else to put this:

I'm 17 minutes into The Chicago Code, and it's awful. Like an episode of The Shield that got hijacked by The Comish.

I had such high hopes!

I thought it was a little too fast-paced (I had trouble understanding Jason Clarke's character half the time), but I liked several of the characters (NOT including the rookie beat cops), and by the end, I was intrigued enough to give it a few more episodes.

It's no Homicide though.

I already mentioned it to Dmitri but BBC series "Zen" is awesome and it kinda counts as movie(3 feature length episodes). And as an all time favorite SF movie: "Man From Earth"

Hi Zob,

Zen doesn't seem to be available here in North America (unless the Canadians have some sort of special BBC hook-up). But Rufus Sewell! When it does come out I look forward to watching it.

Watched Duncan Jones’ Moon this weekend and can’t recommend it enough. It’s exactly the type of intelligent, character driven science fiction film we don’t see enough of post-Star Wars. Sam Rockwell gives an amazing performance and should’ve been at least Oscar nominated.

Just watched Tangled with the family yesterday. Very enjoyable movie. I was surprised by how much it made me laugh! I really enjoyed some of the editing choices, which felt very modern and different for a Disney princess movie. Plus, several of the action sequences were very visually striking.

I know it isn't the usual fare for the crowd on this site (aside from #1 Disney Channel Fan, Dimitri), but I wanted to mention it because Zachary Levi voices the male lead, and he did a wonderful job. He sings, too! Current or former Chuck fans might enjoy the film for his performance alone!

I just watched Tucker and Dale vs Evil and I'm so disappointed to not find a review here on BD! My viewing experience is sadly incomplete ...
