The One-Armed Swordsman, an old Shaw Brothers kung fu movie. If these are your taste, this one is pretty good.

Watch True Detective. Then you will really respect McConnaughey. I did a complete 180 on my opinion of him.
Tangled followed by Frozen. I regret nothing.
The Lone Ranger. Not as completely awful as it was made out to be, but waaaaaay too long, and the funny bits were sparse.
I've heard good things about that show. I don't have HBO but I put True Detective on my Netflix list so I'll eventually get a chance to check it out.
Agreed!
LOL. I want to see Frozen.
Saw X-Men: Days of Future Past last night. We debated between that and Amazing Spideman 2, and went with X-Men, since we recently watched the last one. Very good. I think these last two films are probably the best of the X-Men movies.
Enough Said - Surprisingly good rom-com starring Julia Marie-Drefus and the late James Gandolfini in a story about gossip and white lies. It's an honest, funny film that Woody Allen doesn't make anymore.
HÄXAN: WITCHCRAFT THROUGH THE AGES. A technically incredible silent film from 1922. The clip below excerpts part of the confession and the black mass...So, if witches and devils are triggers for you...Well, there you go. There is no music in this clip either. If I can make a recommendation, steer clear of the 1968 re-release with a jazz score and a William S. Burroughs narration.

The Impossible - A family vacations in Thailand, but on Christmas day, an earthquake and tidal wave destroys the coast and leaves countless victims. Based solidly on eyewitness accounts, this recounts the tsunami - and the daunting rescue. *** of four
That's a great movie to watch as a family.
Julius Caesar - This is mentioned as one of the best Shakespeare adaptations on film, and it has a cast that's to die for (Marlon Brando, James Mason, John Geilgud...). The digital transfer was flawless. I'm glad I finally saw this.

The Monuments Men The film tried to cover too much in two hours. They sent guys in several directions and hopped from story to story. As a result none were done justice IMO. They narrowed the focus and it got better toward the end but it would have been a better mini series... say five two hour segments.
LOVED it. 
Even with no Leonidas, the new lead Themistocles was awesome.

New Xmen movie. The plot was just ok...but overall great cast and entertaining. And that's really all I expect out of those kind of movies.
Ted- A few laughs but overall not that great.

I watched Full Metal Jacket. Now I'm laying in bed jamming to Pandora trying to fall asleep.
My wife and I saw Chef last night. It's a little predictable, but still very enjoyable. And it has a great soundtrack.
The Island, a sci fi action movie from a few years ago starring Ewan MacGregor and Scarlet Johansen. Way too long, and not very good on top of that.
