Gothica

This is a pretty good movie. It scared the crap out of me. Somewhat predictable ending but it is jumpy, very jumpy.

*Best Lumberg Voice* Riiiight...gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you there. Lol

No, in all seriousness, I personally didn't think the movie was worth the price of admission, or the gas it took to get to the theater. To me, it was boring, predictable, and Halle Berry's acting was bad. In fact, her acting seems to be getting worse and worse, or perhaps it just isn't improving. I dunno.

Still, this is just one man's opinion.

I liked the movie but then I'm a big Robert Downey, Jr. fan so I'm pretty much biased in whatever he is in...

Maybe it's because you saw it in widescreen and you'd prefer it in pan and scan...

I agree I liked it as well. Mot perfect but very entertaining!

Sorry stout Halle Berry's acting was just fine. She is still a very good actress. Were you picturing someone else? Makes me wonder?

Oh, sorry, didn't mean to mislead. No, I wasn't picturing anyone else in the part. I didn't enjoy the movie, and her acting (to me) made it even worse. Not as bad as she was in the X-men movie, or the Bond movie, but bad nonetheless. She basically gets roles because she's eye candy, and she's popular, IMO. Female equivalent of Keanu Reeves.

You've GOT to be kidding me. I don't expect her to be the next Katharine Hepburn, but she's better than a lot out there. Did you see Monster's Ball? She was pretty damn good in that movie.

As for Gothika, I didn't think she was THAT bad--the problem with the movie wasn't the acting, it was that the film didn't know if it wanted to be a horror or a psychological thriller, and that confused things.

I'll grant you that she's better than a lot of actors out there, but that isn't always saying a heck of a lot. No, I haven't seen Monster's Ball, so that movie may change my opinion. I guess I should amend my opinion to say she's been bad 'for a while'--I used to like her, but her last few movies have been less than stellar roles, IMO.
