Movies, Movies, Movies.....

Happy Feet Saw this Yesterday, the day it came out in "La Premier (Really comfy chairs, great service, etc)" and it was very good, some bits were a bit predictable, but still, it was very good. 8/10

 

Casino Royal Great film. The realness of some of the action parts is amazing, despite you knowing that it is a Stunt Double. Extremely well done, 10/10

Happy Feet 4/10 I love family/children's movies, but just could not get into this movie at all. I thought the plot was quite lame, and I found myself disliking the characters. Not a fan at all, but better than.......

 

Lady in the Water 1/10 Wow...... and I thought the Village was bad. A mish-mash of random characters with quirks and a combination of a lame fairy tale with goofy sounding names lead to a movie that was actually painful for me to watch. Just awful.

Santa Claus 3: 6/10 I didn't see #2, and I'm guessing I didn't need to. Allen continues to make a surprisingly good Santa, but Short's problem has always been knowing where the upper limit is. Passable, but PLEASE don't make any more af these!

 

Happy Feet: 6/10 Cuteness and quality animation save the tired plot. The songs are good but not great, which doesn't bode well for a kiddy musical. There are enough jokes that work, but some real stinkers.

 

The Holiday: 5/10 Two stories, one just barely works (Law/Diaz) the other doesn't (Winslet/Black) I can't see Black as a romantic lead, and this movie shows why.

 

Pursuit of Happyness: 8/10 Smith is pretty much always great, and despite the sentimental/sappiness of the story, he makes it work. Oscar? Not really, but a pretty durned good flick.

 

Night at the Museum: 6/10 Both Williams and Stiller should be better than this. Surprise turns by some OLD classics (Dick van Dyke and Mickey Rooney aren't dead yet?) help flush the film out, but sadly can't really save this movie from itself.

Night at the Museum. It was good....that is really all I have to say about it. I don't feel a need to see it again anytime soon.

 

Talladega Nights: 7/10 Better than Anchorman and Elf IMO and alot of people said it really sucked and that it was racist which i didn't find at all....

I didn't like Talladega Nights. I didn't find it racist...I just didn't find it the least bit funny.

Night at the Museum

 

8/10 - We all really enjoyed it. Just a fun Family movie.

 

Talladega Nights

 

3/10 - I didn't like Anchorman, but this still looked funny. It wasn't.

 

I think the only "Will Ferrell" movie that has been good is Elf. The other movies where he has a strong supporting cast (Old School) are what he should stick to.

A few older movies I've seen recently:

 

Analyze this- it was pretty good and funny, nice acting, I'd give it 8/10.

 

Black Rain- I really liked this one, good atmosphere, it happened a lot, some alright action scenes, a bit funky 80's music, exceeded my expectations, 8/10.

 

Deja Vu- went to see it yesterday, it was a bit dissapointing as the film-quality wasn't the best and it was mostly filmed off-ride and the plot was a bit weak, since the only exciting thing was the testing after it had been closed for 3 hours.

 

 

 

Ok. sorry, onto the movie Deja Vu.

It was good and long, I liked it, but the whole central monitoring idea was a bit complicated, there were some typical things, still the movie didn't dissapoint me, it was a nice surprise actually, also, luckily it did have a bit humur, which raises its rate to 9/10.

I saw Night at the Museum and I actually laughed out loud at quite a few good parts. A particular favorite of mine being when Owen Wilson and that Roman guy were letting the air the van's tires.

 

However, it still contained a handful of the obligatory family movie

 

"Wow, that part was cheesy."

 

Also, there were quite a few things that were either non-consistent or never quite explained. Although, I'm sure they didn't care all to much because it is a kid's movie and they're not expecting an 8 years old to be like "Sacagawea's plot line left a lot open for interpretation."

 

I give it a 8/10.

I'm surprised that I haven't seen a review for...

 

Dreamgirls. Absolutely amazing movie. If you enjoy musicals, you will definitely enjoy this movie. Jennifer Hudson's version of "Any I Am Telling You I Am Not Going" is freaking incredible. I didn't even take a breath during the entire performance. I was sweating from it. Incredible.

 

Even if you don't like musicals, the music is very enjoyable. I highly suggest it!

 

10/10

I just saw The Descent again, and it wasn't as good as it was the first time in theaters. In theaters, with the huge screen, the darkness, and the crazy surround sound, this movie is terrifying and unbelievably intense. The second time, at home, in a slightly brighter room and no surround sound, it was still really good, though much less intense, and not too scary. Either way, I recommend it to horror fans.

Theaters- 9.5/10

Home- 8/10

Black Christmas

 

 

As a Christmas movie it was awesome! My second favorite, just behinf Nightmare Before Christmas.

 

As a horror movie it was horrible. It was a huge disappointment, but made me laugh quite a few times!

 

I don't suggest seeing it in theatres, unless you're rich and want to just waste money..but it's worth renting.
