It's a decent movie. The story's old and tired, but, at least, it was a story that, no matter how many times you see it, you can still get into. Visually, though, it was a pretty rad flick.
Sherlock Holmes 9/10
I understand what some people are saying about the cliches present in this movie, but, honestly, I kind of expected that out of a Sherlock Holmes movie. I really enjoyed this rendition of Sherlock Holmes. The scenes between him and Watson, alone, makes this a very watchable movie, in my opinion. I found their interactions to be very believable, intelligent, and witty. One of my favorite movies I've seen in a long time.
Kick-Ass 3/10
Refer to noodle's post above. I feel pretty much the same way about this movie.

I just finished watching this about 20 minutes ago and I'm not sure how I feel about it, yet...
I mean, I feel like I just watched a really good movie. The story was highly intriguing, the acting was superb, the graphics were incredible, and overall it seemed to have everything a really good movie should have. The problem is that I'm left wondering a lot of things. Spoiler: Why were they using clones instead of robots? They clearly have the technology to have robots do that job if they can create the likes of GERTY. More importantly, if they're going to use clones, why give them false memories and make them believe they had led a life that they didn't? That really doesn't make sense to me.What did Sam do once he got to Earth? I kind of want some closure...
Perhaps the viewer is meant to be left wondering these things. Perhaps that's the point of the movie and I missed it somewhere along the line. I really think I'll have to watch this movie again before I can make a call here...
