That sort of crap ruined Quantum Solace too, bit of a comedown after the expert long-take action sequences of Casino Royale. At least I managed to finish Quantum, never could watch more than 10 minutes of any live-action Transformers movie.
Family Guy ripped into this film-making style quite nicely here:

Good vid. He's wrong about the 9 cameras shooting for half a day versus 3 cameras shooting for 3 days though but he makes a good point.
Obviously the heat has got to him .........
A deluded customer, more like yes the acting was great - the plot and storyline a load of billboards.......
a failed attempt to rip the Coen brothers off.......
Your are consistent, if nothing else!

The Butler - Very good watch, very powerful.
I have but it was a long time ago and I can barely remember them. The only thing I can remember is the Soul Glo (??) from Coming To America or am I confusing that with something else? Like I say, it's been a while. Definitely going to keep my eyes open for some more peak Murphy.
Didn't expect great things but it's surprisingly well done. Tongue firmly in cheek and doesn't overstay it's welcome.
Just been to see it. Really enjoyed it too. Completely ludicrous of course but it never pretends to be anything else.
Cockneys Vs Zombies
Better than it sounds but still not close to good. Managed to be quite funny in some places but the director must have been afraid of telling some of the older stars to do a scene again as they're pretty terrible in some scenes although the dialogue does them no favours...especially Alan Ford, absolutely awful in parts.
It's daft and played for laughs rather than horror or suspense and given the title I doubt anyone was bringing their A-game.

Thats like.....your opinion, man!
I enjoyed the first Transformer movie for what it was.
And here is a cool vid of the voice of Optimus Prime describing how he came up with the sounds of the antagonist in the greatest movie ever made:

I actually watched that, he tells a good story so he does.
A fun 8/10 is Predator. Just outside my top 100.
2001 & Excalibur tied for the greatest.
As a subman, what's the best sub film? Das Boot or Hunt for Red October?

For realism? K-19.
Das Boot is excellent, Red October would get played every patrol, as it is fun. The US Sub scenes are very accurate, as they got actual sub sailors to play the roles. They even put Scott Glenn underway shadowing a real CO for a couple of weeks to further authenticate his performance.
Hostile Waters is another great sub movie.
Crimson Tide is not a good sub movie, or movie in general. So many things wrong with it, it really takes a dump on the silent service.
