Watched a film called 'Brimstone.' A tough grim movie which stars Guy Pearce as a real nasty preacher with Dakota Fanning.

Casino Royale and Skyfall are both great and I think they are the best bond movies ever although the poker is sooooo unrealistic and I rate it a bit lower because of it. Hopefully the next one isn't a letdown.

The book wasn't great. The movie was a little better than the book, but ultimately this could have been a movie on USA Network.

Seven
(stylized as SE7EN) is a 1995 American psychological crime thriller film directed by David Fincher and written by Andrew Kevin Walker. It stars Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kevin Spacey, R. Lee Ermy and John C. McGinley. The film tells the story of David Mills, a detective who partners with the retiring William Somerset to track down a serial killer who uses the seven deadly sins as a motif in his murders.


The screenplay was influenced by the time Walker spent in New York City trying to make it as a writer. Principal photography took place in Los Angeles, with the last scene filmed near Lancaster, California. The film's budget was $33 million.


Released on September 22, 1995 by New Line Cinema, Seven was the seventh-highest-grossing film of the year, grossing over $327 million worldwide.[2] It was well received by critics, who praised the film's dark style, brutality and themes. The film was nominated for Best Film Editing at the 68th Academy Awards, losing to Apollo 13.

Sahara
is a 2005 action-adventure comedy film directed by Breck Eisner that is based on the best-selling 1992 novel of the same name by Clive Cussler. It stars Matthew McConaughey, Steve Zahn and Pen?lope Cruz and is an international co-production between the United Kingdom, Spain, Germany and the United States.


Sahara grossed $119 million worldwide at the box-office, against a budget of $160 million. It ultimately failed to recoup all of its costs and is among the biggest box-office failures of all-time.
