I've got four...
The Departed - Good, except for the ending, which was total and utter shit. Seemed like it was tacked on just to end the damn movie. Some of the dialogue seemed a bit too...I don't know...Gilmore Girl-ish? Especially, Wahlberg's character. It seemed sometimes other characters were put in the scene just so Wahlberg could say something snappy about fucking some guy's mother. 5/10
The Illusionist - Good movie. Biel was a bit stiff, but Norton, Giamatti and even Jude Law are more than make up for it. The story is pretty good as well and even though you know how the story's going to end, the "Usual Suspects" ending is still quite enjoyable. 7/10
Borat - I think this movie could have been really, really funny. Unfortunately, the constant stream of dick jokes and shit gags completely overshadowed the good stuff. 5/10
Casino Royale - Finally, the good stuff. This movie was awesome. It drug a bit near the end with the love story, which really slowed down the end of the film, but other than that...wow. Just a really great movie and nice change of pace from the Bond films. Good stuff. Really good stuff. 9/10
