237. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)
Other Means
I was expecting this to be so bad that it could be a guilty pleasure but this really upset me with just being terrible and extremely boring surprisingly. As for the claims being thrown around on Aint it Cool that this was going to match to be everything that Indiana Jones 4 wasn't, well that claim is redicolous because with all the problems that Indy 4 had I would gladly watch it again over this piece of crap. Maria Bello is written as a mentally disabled English person that talks like they have never been England.
238. Cocaine Cowboys II: Hustlin' with the Godmother (2008)
Other Means
I was a big fan of the first Cocaine Cowboys documentary but I was kind of confused when I heard there was a sequel and while this does definetly tie in with the first film, the first film is far superior this one and you wouldn't really be missing by skipping this is you already saw the first one.

236. S.P.Y.S. (1974)
Off DVR, Shown on Fox Movie Channel (widescreen, uncut)
I was really surprised I had never heard of this movie with the pairing of Elliot Gould and Donald Sutherland in both their prime, while this is getting hammered on the IMDB rating, this really is a fun goofy spy caper that isn't meant to be taken seriously. If you come across this it's worth a watch.

235. Smiles of a Summer Night (1955)
Off DVR, Shown on Sundance (uncut)
This is the most comedic movie that I've ever seen from Bergman, this has a ton of witty banter that really came out of left field for me because I'm extremely familiar with the rest of Bergman's filmography, and witty banter usually isn't included. This is a must see for those people that could never really get into Bergman, and if your already a fan then of course you should see this also.

234. King of the Hill (1993)
Off DVR, Shown on Sundance (widescreen, uncut)
This was an early Soderbergh movie where he had lost his vision from Sex, Lies, and Videotape and before he found it again with Out of Sight and then Traffic. This movie kind of goes stagnant in the middle and never really recovers, the only other things to note about the movie are some of the cameos, Adrian Brody has a substantial part and child Katherine Heigl also has a small part, but the smalles throw away role goes to Lauren Hill who is truly wasted as an elevator attendant.
