What Was The Last Movie You Saw? Welcome Cinephiles.

Sucker Punch = different. Storyline was pretty weak, but if you like to see chicks kick ass, it's a must see. Definitely a movie made for guys.

Battle: Los Angeles = better than the Syfy version, but the acting was basically the same. Eh. Nothing to rave about.

The Dilemma = Good thing I like Dodge cars (although I am a Pontiac girl at heart) - because it's easy to see who paid for this movie. It had it's moments of funny, but I am glad to see Kevin James moving on to better things.

The Eagle: Interesting perspective on the Roman/Briton conflict. Bit of a predictable story, boy sets off on crusade to restore family name type thing, but beautiful scenery and some romanticized history. In general, I liked it. I may or may not be biased, though, since I love Gaelic, and there is plenty of it in this film.

I am Number Four: Typical action movie, kind of meh for me. Interesting concept but I would have liked to have seen more continuation of the story line. It looked like they took a tiny part of a large story and expanded it to be juuuuuust long enough for feature film length.

The documentary "Reagan".

I love this stuff. Helps my recollection of history - hard to believe stuff I lived is now history, ancient history at that!

What I really liked about this was the info on the strategies used in his various campaigns. Those fascinate me.

Just finished watching The Lincoln Lawyer...it was entertaining, nothing stand out. The best two things about the film were Marisa Tomei and the soundtrack.

Jack Goes Boating with Philip Seymour Hoffman.

It was weird and filled with one awkward situation after another but it worked for me.

Today we watched "I Love You Phillip Morris" I laughed and shook my head a lot and enjoyed Jim Carrey in it and usually he annoys me...

Last night we watched a very somber "Biutiful" it's heavy for sure but great.

Whip It. Watched for about the 10th time a few days back, over coffee, before work. I'm strangely fascinated by roller derby. Which I never get to see live because I always work on Saturday nights. And I just

love

Ellen Page -- and by love I mean I'd like to chain her to a radiator and keep her as a pet.

Hmmm, before that, I watched a documentary on Dungeons & Dragons fanatics. It was slightly scary and entirely too true to life.

Before that the Harry Potter finale in the theater, which I enjoyed just because it was HP.

And before that "Thor" in the theater -- which was entirely more of a let down that I wanted it to be. Though visually entertaining if you are someone with an appreciation for CG.

Stone

has Edward Norton, Milla Jovovich, and Al Pacino in it.
I assumed it would be fantastic because I liked the cast listing.
Not too bad, but slow. I have mixed feelings.
