88 Minutes 2008
Watched by DirkH 26 Mar, 2012 'Hello, my name is Al Pacino and I used to be an actor. I am now a goatee with a loud voice.

From goofy anecdotes to philosophical discussions on death and legacies, this (slightly overlong) documentary isn't going to win over people who dislike the Trek franchise, but it is a fun and interesting retrospective that fans of Star Trek will enjoy.

Watched by Hector Bustnuts 22 Mar, 2012 1 I want to like this film. I want to love this film. It was stylish and moody with a synth soundtrack to die for (release it commercially, I *will* buy it). But for everything it gets right...it gets nearly as many wrong. And the majority of that wrongness can be found in the final ten minutes. Terrible, terrible ending.
It's not that it's an ending that doesn't resolve the film (I don't believe any ending could do proper justice to…

The Grey 2012
Added by Glen Chapman 18 All you need to know is that Liam Neeson calls a wolf a motherfucker and punches it repeatedly in the face.
