Jesus the book and the movie were so depressing and demoralizing. Like a shitty thing would happen, then an even more shitty thing, then finally something good would happen but more shitty stuff was to follow. Love how it's shot though.
Just saw Gangster Squad, pretty fucking good. Sean Penn is ruthless. It's really similar to The Untouchables but way more violent and badass, and has a nice westcoast style.
Been getting into LOTR again, still one of the best trilogies of all time.
