THEM! The finest of the big bug movies with a solid, standout performance by James Whitmore for a film of this nature. Nice ant SFX for the day. Excellent use of location photography. 8/10
See The Beginning of the End with Peter Graves. Great giant bug movie from that era (grasshoppers).

The Russia House
One of Connery's best films. Intelligent and absorbing. Great score by Jerry Goldsmith
9/10

You have good taste.  Usually, this film doesn't get nearly the praise it should.

Last weekend, I watched:
THE WRESTLER - 7/10. Quite admirable that they had the guts to just black the screen instead of adding a high drama final scene. And I always tend to like movies with bleak endings.
THE ILLUSIONIST - 4/10. I so wanted to love this movie, but after a while I just could not deny to myself anymore that it was an odd blend of half-baked and overdone all the way through. From the quasi silent movie flickering to the "magical" CGI, the special effects were exaggerated, artificial and rushed, as if they didn't care if they looked sound or not. It probably didn't help either that I saw THE PRESTIGE several months earlier, as compared against that one, THE ILLUSIONIST is the far weaker movie, both in technical terms as regarding the script. In addition, I have seen far better performances of Edward Norton.
Disappointing.
