I completely agree with you about the ending... how Matt Damon's character reacts in the last scene is SOOO out of character and contradicts everything he did the entire movie. It really pissed me off. For that, I give it a 7/10.
15 Minutes - 8/10 - I didn't have very high expectations for this movie, but it was actually pretty decent. The characters were very well developed and each one was unique and interesting. They did a lot more with the storyline than I expected and wrapped it up nicely at the end.
Crank - 4/10 - The concept of this movie sounds like something that was thought up by some stoner... "Dude, wouldn't it be cool if we take the guy from The Transporter and blah blah blah." The acting was fairly lame, action was okay, and the ending was just awful... I was unaware that helicopters could ascend to roughly 40,000 feet in less than a minute. However, the cinemetography was actually pretty interesting during the action scenes... so I'll at least give it that.
The Perfect Crime - 2/10 - Some Spanish film... not really sure how it got on my Netflix queue. It was very, very weird.
300 - 9/10 - I enjoyed nearly everything about this movie, even the diplomatic scenes that weren't in the original comic. They weren't as great as the battle scenes, but I'm glad they included them so that the characters on that side of things could be developed fully.
