Drag Me To Hell-8/10

This film is an in-your-face horror that provides you with enough gore, vomit inducing events and paranoid thoughts for the next several days to definitely want to watch this film again. The only tip I can give you is to stay away from old ladies that look like they are able to curse you and seem to posses super fighting powers.

Up - 9/10
Went to see this with some friends and gf yesterday. Really sweet movie and lots of funny moments. Everything was great except for the famed adventure guy, who I thought wasn't explained very--SQUIRREL!!

Moon - 8/10. I love - LOVE - thinking sci fi movies. Highly recommended.

Another 9/10 for Up. I won't go into detail was to why it wasn't 10. Let's just say there were a few things that didn't click enough for me. Solid movie, regardless. Now I need to see Wall-E.

guy, I'm glad you liked Moon. I'm looking forward to seeing it myself.

9/10 for UP. I didn't think I would like this movie, but it got to me.

8/10 for Star Trek. I laughed though the whole thing. I knew right away it was Bones when they first introduced him.

The Hangover - 9/10

Really great comedy, one of the best that I have seen in a long, long time

Taken - 7.5/10
I really enjoyed this too, watched it for the second time. He makes it look a tad bit easy, but a great action flick.

Max Payne - 2/10
What the hell?!?! Thats all I have to say about this movie. It gets 2 points because that girl in the beginning is hot.

Star Trek - 10/10
Hot damn this movie was great!

the hangover 10/10 -

yeah, i'm giving it a perfect score. it begins with a danzig song, so that right there starts it out ahead of the game. the storyline is interesting, characters are interesting and hilarious, great soundtrack, it's incredibly funny without looking like it's trying too hard, zach galifinakis is one of the best comedians around today (tigers like pepper. they hate cinnamon), and it ends with the "pictures from their night" which was hilarious.

from start to finish, and everywhere in between it was a great movie. it did it's job, it took me out of reality and i was so caught up in the movie i forgot where i was and what i was gonna do for the rest of the day. great movie.

Finally watched "Twilight" and I liked it much more than I expected, so I'd say 4 outta 5 *stars*. It would be beyond HOT if it wasn't made for tweens but it was quite enjoyable since the two stars had some nice chemistry.

Kinda nostalgic in a weird vampy way....

Synecdoche, New York - 8.5/10

This is one you're gonna either love or hate. Count me in as a lover. I would have scored even higher but the brilliant script takes the viewer to some very uncomfortable places. I saw it yesterday and can't stop thinking about it.

If you loved Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind and Being John Malkovich, check this one out. :thumbsup:

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas 7/10.

It's no Schindler's List but a decent film. Films like this always leave me thinking why the hell do people do such things to other people.

Word of warning this is (was) not the feel good movie of the year. I wouldn't watch this while depressed.

Up (not in 3-D thankfully)

So I finally got around to watching this, and I really wasn't sure how Pixar was going to make a movie about an old man flying around in his house as a full on movie. At first glance it seemed like it would be a great idea for one of their pre-movie shorts (btw the pre-movie short for Up is fantastic) not a full on movie.

I was wrong.

This is without a doubt in my mind the funniest, and yet most moving movie that Pixar has made to date. During the opening montage I found myself blinking away tears, Spoiler: I never thought I'd see a miscarriage in an animated picture, yet Pixar makes it have more impact in 30 seconds than most movies do in two hours and yet later on I had tears again because there were several points in the movie that I found so funny I couldn't stop laughing.
I loved the fact that while it was made for kids it didn't talk down to them and assume that the only thing kids will find funny is fart jokes.
This, in my opinion is the very best that Pixar has made to date.

5/5

Oh and on last thing I'd like to comment on is the dogs. Forget every other talking dog movie that has ever come out THIS is what dogs would sound SQUIRREL!!!.... what dogs would sound like if they could talk.

The Rocker - 3/10

It had a few pretty funny parts, but just a few. But most of it was just horrible. How can he go from being in a rock band to being in an Emo band?

Medea Goes to Jail: The Movie ... 5/10

Parts were funny....I miss Perry's plays, they were great...


Oh, and
Up ... 10/10

Up - 8.5/10.

Now, I might be scoring it lower as I took my little 4 year old to see it (her first movie theatre experience!) and had to stop and explain a few things along the way.

But damn, I had a lump in my throat that first 15 or 20 minutes. Never been moved by an animated movie so much since I was a kid and those bastards shot Bambi's mother!

Yeah, I might of had a lump, maybe, but my friend cried, honestly cried, then realized she could be heard throughout the whole theater and (loudly) snorted back a laugh.

Under The Sand (Sous le sable) - 7/10

An unpretentious and interesting tale of grief , Charlotte Rampling's performance carries the film. If you love her, see it.

Band of Brothers - 15/10

Okay it is not really a movie, but its not really a TV series either, its a miniseries. And seeing as I marathoned it just now and watched the whole thing in roughly 2 sittings I will consider it a movie.

Absolutely amazing, just incredible. It follows the journey of The 101st airborn infantry unit (Easy Company) through their landing on Dday until the end of WWII.

Ultimate Avengers (cartoon movie) 8.5/10

I love this movie, this is probably the 4th time I have seen it. Very funny narrative, excellently done. Its about an hour and ten long, its easy to squeeze it in your day, I highly recommend it!

Just saw an article that Shifty Powers died over the weekend... ;-(

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen 5/10

Much like the first one, this movie was half and half for me. I thoroughly enjoyed the half that actually involved machine-on-machine brutalization, explosions, and noise. Spoiler: Especially when Optimus owns the FUCK out of Megatron at the end! Visually, it's incredible.

Then there's the other half...

The silly, drama filled, chick flick side. I'm sorry, I don't give a flying fuck about this dweeby dude, Spoiler: his college experience, or how he cheats on his girlfriend (who's way too hot for him, anyhow) with a robot.

Oh, and seriously with all the fart and ball jokes, racial stereotypes, and old people based sexual innuendo?! This shit's not funny, just blow something the fuck up, please!

Outlander (Not to be confused with the 1981 Sean Connery movie Outland) 7 out of 10

Outland is a pretty darn good unknown SF/Fantasy/Action/Thriller. Its about the inhabitants of a spacecraft that crashes in Norway in 700 AD. It's kind of like 13th Warrior/Predator/Beowulf/Pitch Black. Sure, it borrows from all of these movies, but the solid acting and great FX make it well worth a watch.

I went and seen the new Transformers movie two days ago. Not at all as good as the first. Also was not something for all ages. Transformers was made for kids, but this last movie had a lot of jokes I wouldn't like my daughters to watch.

Eastern Promises - 7/10

A little gory for my taste, but the story was compelling and well acted. I shoulda known with Cronenberg directing. For me a 7, but for most I'd give it an 8.

Terminator Salivation: 9/10 Holy schnikees Ithought this movie rocked start to finish. Not like any of the other Terminator movies....gritty, violent, serious, fast paced, awesome special effects, vehicles, robots etc. Spoiler: My jaw hit the floor when those 2 cyclebots popped out of the giant robot and drove down its freakin legs.

My Name Is Bruce: 6.5/10

Bruce Campbell is an anomaly, in that he's a B movie actor who has a huge fan following. After two bestsellers he's decided to try his hand at directing it seems, and the result is something that one can only describe as Campbellesque. So I suppose if his objective was to create an adjective, he can strike that off his to-do list.

The plot is fairly straightforward: Bruce Campbell plays a caricature of himself, a washed-up, hard-drinking, womanizing B movie actor. A group of teenagers fooling around somewhere they shouldn't accidentally release an evil homicidal spirit, and for some reason that's never really explained Bruce is chosen to fight it. If this sounds familiar, you are officially the target audience.

The film's greatest stumbling block is that it's an intentional effort to create the so-bad-it's-good cheesiness that was a huge part of Evil Dead's success. It manages to get some laughs in, but feels rather forced at times.

The film is clearly intended for fans of the star, and is liberally dosed with references to his prior work. As such, it's likely to be completely lost on anyone who isn't familiar with his resume, but then one would have to wonder why anyone who isn't a fan would watch the film to begin with.

Overall I found it to be an entertaining film, though hardly monumental. I recorded it on the PVR on a whim, and was not disappointed, but my feelings might've been different if I'd paid to rent it.

If you have read and enjoyed If Chins Could Kill and/or Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way, you'll probably enjoy this. If you haven't, or if you don't have the entire Evil Dead trilogy on your DVD shelf, you can safely skip this one.

Year One...... I knew it would be stupid, but....

Ok, it's my fault. I went to see it, but only because I needed a laugh after all the crap in the world. I was so pissed. No laughs, nothing remotely amusing. The 20 year olds with a 12 year old brain giggled a little.

Dan in Real Life

I think it was a really good movie. It was a funny and cleaver movie. It is a good movie about parenting.

Transformers 2

8/10.. no 9/10.. yeah...

You don't watch a Michael Bay film for the plot and you sure as hell don't expect it to win any acting awards. You watch it for the action and this movie had plenty of it. It was cheesy as hell. I don't get how Mudflap and Skids were racist stereotypes. I thought they were hilarious and they kicked some ass. I enjoyed the cheap laughs and the low brow humor. The only things I didn't like is that it had a few characters they could have ditched and nobody would have missed them and it ended kind of abruptly. I'm glad I didn't listen to the critics. I'm not saying you'll like it, just saying I did.

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian 4/10

Pretty much more of the same from the 1st one.

Some Cons:
Hank Azaria (who I normally like) and his horrendous lispiness.
Jonah Hill - Who I think is just one of the unfunniest dudes around.
Frikin' Jonas Brothers

Some Pros:
The Einstens were pretty cute
Amy Adam's ass

I agree. Hear, Hear!

Quantum Of Solace - 5/10

The slowest and worst Bond film of them all. I should have known when evening the opening song and titles weren't exciting. The editing was horrid as well. Craig was good, the girls were cute . When my favorite part was the driving backwards scene and the no-parachute landing and it doesn't even sound like a Bond film.

Night at the Museum II 5/10

I liked the first one, but was surprised that I did. This one didn't work as well for me. Maybe I was just in a funk? The fact they had the AC on down to where i could see my breath and the sound up loader then the last AC/DC concert I saw may have played a part too.

Elegy - 8/10

I totally loved this story of a relationship. I kept thinking it was going to go all melancholy, but it maintained its integrity. I even enjoyed both Kingsley and Cruz in these roles.

Taken - 7/10

Great suspense, tired story. Liam's hot when he's kicking ass.

The Hangover 9/10

The idea has been done before just a drunken night gone bad but it was very funny; I couldn't stop laughing. Its a need to watcher at least once.

Very Bad Things 8/10
1998 movie very funny, alot of crazy things happen, i would recommend watching it

He's Just not that in to You
I liked it, a good chick flick. I think I seen Punk.of.Ages crying. I think he liked it more then the new Transformers, his favorite movie.

I do have a soft spot for chick flicks...

*tear*

Seriously, though, of course I liked that movie more than Transformers. That movie didn't rape my childhood heroes with a ninety foot pole.

Plus, Scarlett Johansson is waaaaaaaaay hot!:thumbsup:

Transformers 2 - 6/10 - Just like the first movie, cool special effects, cool robots, shaky camera, bad acting... this time lame plot and storyline.

Seven Pounds - 7/10

It was a great movie, I would have given it something higher, but I spent the first hour completely confused about what was going on. But I must admit I was happy when I figured it out before the other people I was watching with did.

Knowing 6/10

I wanted to like this one, and I did like the first few acts. The last half hour or so really went in the wrong direction though. I really don't see how Roger Ebert gave this movie 4/4 stars. That man is off his rocker.
