Madagascar 2


A fun movie with great characters and visually stunning. A wonderful story.
8/10

Swing Vote


Swing Vote is a good movie. Kevin Costner was very good. All the stuff with president swaying Bud for his vote was a bit over the top but a fun movie.

50 First Dates


This was a good movie. The type of memory loss and the way it was written was a great concept. Sandler and Barrymore are always great, but it was Sean Austin character that really made me laugh.

Goldeneye


Goldeneye is one of the worse movie I've ever seen. Pierce Brosnan was terrible. There was too much of bad guys in the movie and not enough Bond. When he was on screen he was flat and boring.


1/10

Stepbrothers


Stepbrothers was an ok movie. Not a big fan John C. Riley. I think concept of two gown men living at home, could be funny. But this movie tried to hard to be funny. Always great to see Seth Rogen even for a minute.

Coming Soon.....


I saw the Dark Knight eariler this week. I can't put my thoughts into words yet. But a full review is coming soon.

Role Models


I completely loved Role Models. I adore Paul Rudd he so talented and its great to see him having sucess. He and Sean William Scott were very funny. But was the kids that made the movie they were great. I think the key to movie was a good pace and balance. There was a good story to keep you interested a great jokes in the right places.


9/10

Quantum of Solace


Quantum of Solace is a good movie. This is definatley a darker Bond which I enjoyed. The pace of the movie was good it keeps you interested. The Bond girl was good as well. she had a real purpose.


Daniel Craig is the best Bond since Connery. Sleek and cool and bad at the right times.


10/10

Mallrats


For the longest time I resisted Mallrats, every time I would see bits of it on TV and looked stupid. Well it is stupid. Stupid in a good Kevin Smith kind of way. Only Smith could make the story of two slackers who get dumped and go to the mall a good movie. Just like all Kevin Smith creations you know you should hate them, but you just can't help but see their greatness.


9/10

Four Christmases


Four Christmases was OK. A very simple plot of couple that does everything they can to avoid the holidays with family. After seeing the famulies you understand why.


I really like Vaughn and Reese Whitherspoon, but I didn't think they were that funny. I don't think it was a lack chemisity. They just didn't work for me in the movie.


5/10

This Christmas


This was just a watching Christmas about a family returning to their childhood home for the holiday. Acting was ok, plot was predictable. But still pretty enjoyable.

The Prestige


This movie was really good. The Prestige is about two magician who work in an act together and a trick goes wrong and it changes their lives forever. The events that unfold as they goes their seperate ways are captivating. This movies keeps you watching until the last second.


9/10

Get Smart


I remember seeing an early trailer for Get Smart and really wanting to see it. I've become a big Steve Carell fan. So when the DVD finally came out I was ready. What a huge disapointment. It just wasn't funny. I knew the parts where I should have laughed but nothing. Anne Hathaway just bugged me she and Carell had no chemisrty.

Kung Fu Panda


Kung Fu Panda is a great movie. The story was awesome. The animation top-notch. Jack Black is really suited for voice-over work. I was puzzled by one thing though, how can a duck be a panda's father? But still that was great too.


10/10

Mad Money


Mad Money was good. Bridgette who is used the good life gets a job cleaning toliets at The Federal Reserve. She enlists two co-work help in stealing the money that would be destroyed anyway. A fun movie, great to them getting a way with it for awhile.

Monsoon Wedding


This was very low budget with to many subtitles. Takes to long to get going.


0/10

Across the Universe


Being a huge Beatles' fan, I thought this might be good at least for the music. I was wrong. The singing acting and story were all bad.


1/10

Samatha Who?-The First Complete Season

I love this show. Christina Applegate is so adorable. Her character loses her memory after being hit by a car. She finds that before the accident she was not a nice person. The cast is great including the always wonderful Jean Smart who plays Sam's mother.

10/10

Big Bang Theory-The Complete First Season


Big Bang Theory is great comedy. The cast has great timing. Sheldon's charcter is one the funniest I've seen. And its great to see some Roseanne alums back on TV. A show worth anyone's time.

What Happens in Vegas


What Happens in Vegas is a fun movie. I really liked Cameron Diaz. It had some funny stuff but the last 15 minutes were great. The stupid moments are worth the end.
