Oldboy (2003)
Watched 6 September 2013
Bob: "I've been trying to get you to watch it for months."
Ok Bob was right. Awesome movie. I put it off for so long because the title confused me... don't judge!
The treatment of revenge in this film is pretty unusual, to put the "evil" protagonist in a position where the viewer will pity him and even grow fond of him. The twist is delicious.

Bob: "I don't know what it is. I haven't even unwrapped it."
Beautiful animation. The plot felt like it was cut off in the middle and left without an ending, but I don't really mind. Can't wait to watch the sequel.

Bob: "It's a great traveling movie. I think you'll give it 7 stars."
Sorry Bob, 6 stars from me. It was o k a y I guess but I was bored through the long empty conversations and I particularly disliked the way the sound cut out for several seconds before the narration began. I'm afraid this was too hyped up.

A Tale of Two Sisters (2003) (2003)
Watched August 2013, DVD.
Bob: "You love horror, don't you? This is scary as fuck!"
Oh Bob. Poor innocent Bob. When you watch as much horror as I have, the scares in this movie really fall short. I enjoyed the setting and the pacing was very good.

Persepolis (2007)
Watched August 2013, online.
Bob: "You haven't watched this??? What's wrong with you woman?"
After Bob lent me the books and I read them in a day, I wasn't interested in the film. So I put it off for... a year. And I'm glad I did. The events in the movie are the same as in the book, only quite a bit is left out. A successful adaptation.

The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)
Watched ??, cinema.
Bob's comment is pending.
I kinda hated this movie. It was so cold and depressing. Gosling is the same character he always plays.

The Conjuring (2013)
Watched August 2013, cinema.
Bob: "Fuck me this movie is fucking terrifying" he didn't say this but he was whimpering through the film.
Good movie, not original in story or setting but still above average in the treatment of the genre.

Strangers on a Train (1951)
DVD
Bob: "Part of your Hitchcock education. I can't believe you studied film and only watched two Hitchcocks before you met me."
A little boring. Lost me somewhere in the middle. I liked the storyline though.

Brick (2006)
DVD
Bob: "You'll like this. It's a murder mystery thriller with that guy you like (Joseph Gordon-Levitt)."
I'm so sorry I found this so boring. I also didn't care for the integration of the hardboiled detective style into a high school setting.

Bob:
A lot of pretty things, but to anyone who's read the book it's a very poor interpretation.

Bob is my potential future husband. He's also a librarian and a movie collector. These are films he recommended from his own collection, and some we've watched at the cinema.
