Title: Batman: The Dark Knight Rating:

Hands Down! The Best Batman Ever! I would have to say that I have not been this fascinated after a movie, since The Matrix. The acting in this movie is the best of any Comic movie ever. This is a true thrill ride that will keep you on your hands, knees and toes. I am really speechless here...All I can really say is that you have to just see it for yourself and you will be blown away. IMAX it!

Title: Wanted Rating:

I thought Wanted would be a fun movie and it didn't disappoint!

?

Others to Come

Title: Harold & Kumar 2 Rating:

It seems like I have been waiting for this movie for a long time too. Well I knew it would be a non-stop laugh thrill ride, but never did I think I wouldn't be able to stop laughing. Kal Penn and John Cho are hilarious together. I hope another one comes after this. I agree with most people that say that the sequel blows away the first one. This one just had scenes that will be memorable forever! Gotta love the Grape Pop scene! "How about some Kool Aid"? Another scene that was hysterical was the interrogation of the parents. Just too funny for words.

The movie, of course is filled with gross humor, but Harold and Kumar make it unbelievably funny and somewhat "realistic". I was left with one question during the film, "Why are there so many kids in here watching this movie"? Then I contemplated as to what the parents were thinking?

This movie has been added to my All-Time Favorites.

Warning: Filthy Entertainment!

Title: Iron Man Rating:

We have been waiting for this movie for how long? Well....however long it was it was worth the wait!!! I want to see it again!!! The plot was pretty well thought out. I didn't see a hitch anywhere. Of course, they changed a few things from the comic, but that is to be expected. They kept it pretty PG without all the alcoholism that surrounds Tony Stark. Speaking of alcoholism, Robert Downey Jr. became Iron Man by nailing scene by scene by his masterful craft of delivery. I don't think anyone else could have fit this role perfectly. I can't wait for the sequels! Marvel is incredible!

Title: The Forbidden Kingdom Rating:

Once I heard the collaboration between Jet Li & Jackie Chan was not going to be raw and gritty, I assumed the film would be too Americanized. Boyyyy, was I right! The Forbidden Kingdom was a great story, excellent acting (most of the time), and kept me interested throughout. I pretty much predicted the ending and too many of the key moments in the film. I didn't like that! I hope another collaboration will happen and the film will not be too cheesy. Loved mostly all the fight scenes, especially as the movie went along.

This is one for the family outing. Won't be a classic, blockbuster or epic, but should be part of your martial arts collection if you like Jackie Chan or Jet Li.

Title: Semi-Pro Rating:
Completely hilarious! Started out a bit slow, but it sure did ramp up quickly! Will Ferrell is back to his usual funny self. Everyone had great roles in the film and this was definitely the funniest basketball movie I have ever seen! Great story and even if you are not a basketball fan, you will enjoy it. Buy it on DVD too!

Title: No Country for Old Men Rating:

"There's very little "good" in No Country for Old Men beyond the mesmerizing acting and viciously dark screenplay. Instead, the unholy trinity of temptation, cynicism and pure, dark, evil take center stage in this modern western directed by brothers Joel and Ethan Coen." This review summed it up for me! I was speechless when trying to describe how jolted I was after seeing this film. Simply stunning! Utterly gripping! Award winner for sure!

February 23, 2008


Title: Juno Rating:

Exciting! Funny! Realistic! I think it was realistic only because it was well written and had spectacular acting! It has similarities to Superbad, but this had much more character. Excellent, excellent, excellent! For all those who stereotype movies into gender calls, this is a great film for chics and boys!

February 23, 2008


Title: Atonement Rating:

Continuing my movie marathon.....Ummmm...I hated her. If you have seen it, you know exactly who I am talking about! Besides her this film treats you to wonderful performances, lavish sets, shocking and thought-provoking moments and haunting themes of WWII. Everything is deep! The atmosphere in of all three are wonderfully captured by the director, cinematographer, costume design and score and I am sure that there are going to be some Oscar nominations for these. James McAvoy as lead man gives a tremendous performance of a restrained but passionate man. Keira Knightley's performance was okay but not having as mature an edge to capture the social nuances of the times that McAvoy did so successfully. Do not see this film if you like fast paced films and rapid plot development! This is not a film for the pop video generation with ADD and other "not being able to pay attention ailments". If however you like character development and a plot that unravels at a pace that allows you to be immersed in the atmosphere of the film then I can highly recommend Atonement.

POETRY IN MOTION!

Title: There Will Be Blood Rating:

Amazing! My pick for the best movie of the year! Academy Award Winner! Do I really need to type a review? I think I have said enough. DANIEL DAY LEWIS does it WAYYYYYYYYYY BIG!!! He will get Best Actor, no doubt about that! Best single performance I have seen, ever. This is a long film, filled with drudgery, contempt, envy, and laughter. You just have to see it to believe what is on the screen! Don't take the kids, you will lose focus...Enjoy!

February 23, 2008


Title: Michael Clayton Rating:

Michael Clayton started off my movie marathon and it was a great introduction to my 12-hour day! I think the theatre chose to have this start it off because people will pay attention. If you don't pay attention to everything in this film, you will be lost! Such a great story with wide appeal. The acting is incredible and George Clooney takes you for a thrilling ride.

February 23, 2008


Title: Jumper Rating:

Exciting! This is one of those stories that I dream about. Being able to teleport to anywhere in the world, who wouldn't want that ability? I liked the film, but I wish there was more. It was pretty much a tease. If you take away a few things from this film, then you really have nothing. The story is boring. Guy can jump, people find him and try to kill him, he gets away. In between he gets back together with a girl he use to like when he was a kid, they go to Rome because "hey, all girls will put their lives on hold to go to Rome with a guy they knew back in Highschool but haven't seen for 8 years. Bilson is cute, but she is given nothing to do besides ask questions. The real star here is Jamie Bell, who plays Griffin, another Jumper. He's the person we really want to follow in this story, he's funny, kicks major butt and takes no crap from anyone. Real raw! Sequel? I just needed some history! The filmmakers had a great chance to go back in history and show us this war, as one character mentions, but not once do we get any idea of any of it. There is a lot more story to tell with these Jumpers, but we never get any of it, we only scratch the surface. Are they that confident that it will do so well that they will give a bit more in a sequel? Or did they really have no idea what they were doing and just hope the audience liked the jump scenes.

Title: National Treasure II Rating:

Action packed, adrenaline rushing and a great comedic performance by all. National Treasure 2 is such a great movie! I loved every moment of it even while I had a sleeping beauty on my shoulder. So of course, this is a family movie. Everyone should see the first one before the second though!

January 4, 2008


Title: The Great Debaters Rating:

POWERFUL! Just an amazing inspiring movie! Denzel directed this picture amazingly, as well as his performance in it. Amazing story! I keep saying Amazing! But it truly was. I think it was the best drama of the year, and probably of next year. Someone should get an award. If you've seen it, then you know who I am talking about.

December 25, 2007


Title: I Am Legend Rating:

An overall, stunning performance by Will Smith. You could feel his pain and lonliness throughout the movie! The only thing is, if Will Smith wasn't the actor, would this be as good as a movie? So Will Smith makes this movie in my mind. This is a thrill of a ride. Can't wait till it comes on DVD. The ending was wrapped up too quickly for me.

December 14, 2007


Title: American Gangster Rating:

Fun, fun and more fun!!! I loved every minute of this movie. One of the new classics of Gangster films. Outstanding performances by Denzel and Russell and of course people knew this was going to be a great movie! It's directed by Ridley Scott, one of my favorite directors! The rough times, rough lives and rough places all come together in this emotional thrill ride.

November 6, 2007


Title: The Kingdom Rating:

The best film of the times! A current event motion picture in the simplest sense. A must see for those uneducated in the war time of today. Unbelievable and gripping! Eyes stayed glued to the screen. Humor was intertwined at perfect intervals. I would definitely buy this on DVD, but the real DVD.

October 6, 2007


Title: Good Luck Chuck Rating:

I had special-pre screening tickets to this movie. I would have to say, I would have happily paid to see this film. Not sure why it is rated R. It should have been NC-17 for sure! Anyways, I loved the story, the acting and the scenes. Some scenes were a little out of hand, but overall the film ran smoothly. A must see for Jessica Alba fans. She is amazing! Inside and out. Check it out!

August 19, 2007


Title: Rush Hour 3 Rating:

Well Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker came back with a bang! Definitely the Rush Hour style that everyone has grown to love. This film taking place mostly in Paris was an enjoyment since I have been in the steps (most of them...lol) of where the scenes took place. That was kinda wordy! What I am trying to say is that I have been to mostly all the places in Paris when the scenes took place and it brought back joyful memories. Go see the movie if you have seen the previous Rush Hour movies.

August 19, 2007


Title: Superbad Rating:

All I have to say that this movie was raw, uninhibited and just all out filthy!

I loved every minute of it! Definitely one of my favorite comedies ever made. You will laugh till you fall out your seat! Don't eat too much while watching this film cause you won't be able to hold it. I predict number one DVD for weeks when it gets released.

August 18, 2007


Title: I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry Rating:

Extremely Hilarious!!! This is why Adam Sandler is one of the best. This movie isn't really for the young children. What's the rating? Definitely the funniest comedy of the year! Will be a great DVD seller.

July 28, 2007


Title: Transformers Rating:

Incredible! Spectacular! Mind-Blowing! A true action-packed thrill ride that kept me glued to the screen. Far exceeded my expectations (expecting to be blown out my seat for a year) by ripping my mind apart. The visual effects in this film are worth the money alone. Then the story (actually a few stories in one) takes you for a ride that will have you cruising along from start to finish. It kept the cartoon feel and the humor was intertwined throughout all the jaw-dropping action!

I'm going to see it again!

July 8, 2007


Title: Ratatouille Rating:

I was intrigued by the trailer when I first saw it. "A Rat as a cook in Paris". I had to check it out. To my amazement, I loved this movie! More than I thought I would. I was laughing the whole time. It was truly unique and the characters were excellent. Definitely a movie for all ages, (Duh...Rated G) and it will not disappoint.

July 7, 2007


Title: Live Free Die Hard (4) Rating:

Lived up to the hype! I loved every minute of it. Just a little lengthy at the end, but I'll let that slide. Incredible comeback for Die Hard. Exceeded my expectations. Some of the scenes were just really unrealistic, but it is Die Hard. A great summer movie thrill ride and extremely hilarious!

 


Title: Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer Rating:

I was so excited to see this movie and when it was over, I wish I would have just downloaded it or something. The only thing that kept me in my seat was Jessica Alba. I was very angry that I spent $11. I think it was only worth like $2.


Title: Spiderman III Rating:

Well what can I say? It's Spiderman! And it's the third movie! It was impressive!

If you haven't seen it, then you should. It is for everyone! Even blind or deaf people.

I thought the ending could have been a lot better, but it was still incredible!

May 8, 2007


Title: The Pathfinder Rating:

A very interesting story, but not a spectacularly told one. The visuals were amazing! My love for history kept me attention to the movie. The feeling of seeing this film at the movies wasn't there. I thought it felt like a TNT or TBS movie. The dialogue in the movie is not very good, and the acting subpar. The Vikings are great though. They speak their native norse language, and subtitles appear instead of having them speak english which definitely aids in the immersion factor of the film. I would have been a little upset if they were speaking English. An overall nice film, but not worth theatre money.

April 15, 2007


Title: Grindhouse Rating:

Of course, this was my first double feature. I haven't went to two movies at one night at the theatre in years. This time I paid for two in one ticket. This was probably the most fun I have ever had at the theatres. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard and was glued to the screen not wanting to miss a moment. I loved Planet Terror over Death Proof. I won't give any spoilers. Everyone should see these and I don't want to give away anything. I would say make sure you go to the bathroom before you sit down because you won't have any breaks. In between the films are some great trailers (for fake films) and you don't want to miss them.

April 14, 2007


Title: 300 Rating:

I've been waiting for the release of this film for a year and a half and I end up seeing it after my friends, family and whoever else saw it before me. Haha. Continuous action, grave humor and sensational graphics! I cannot wait to add this movie to my DVD collection! I didn't think it was as good as Gladiator, which is in my top 5 favorite movies. But 300 offers much more in other ways, in which Gladiator doesn't. An excellent movie and should be the best release of 2007.

To sum it all up. 300 made me ... realize why I still love going to the movie theatre.

March 19, 2007


Title: Zodiac Rating:

A truly astounding film that revisits one of the most devastating serial killers in US History. And they still don't know who he is. Anyways, I was glued to the screen from start to finish and this movie was long. You definitely get your money's worth. Great acting and the characters drive this movie home!

March 4, 2007


Title: Blood Diamond Rating:

If you buy or like diamonds, it is necessary that you see this movie. It will open your eyes to the conflict of "conflict diamonds". Most people do not know about the exploitation of Africa and their resources (gold, diamonds, oil, etc.). Governments are corrupt and big companies could care less about all the people being killed because of precious goods. Blood Diamond shows the raw side in great detail of the "diamond slave trade" and armed children in Africa.

Jehanny and I give it 4 thumbs up!!!

December 30, 2006


Title: Pursuit of Happyness Rating:

A truly remarkable story of diligence and responsibility to family. I loved every moment of the film. It is truly inspiring to not just African-Americans, but also to all races and genders. A must see for everyone who is in search for happiness (everyone).

December 28, 2006


Title: The Fountain Rating:

A very strange movie! I really didn't understand most of it. It kind of came together 4/5'ths into the movie. I would not waste my money at the movie theatre to see it. Just wait until it comes out on DVD. The acting was excellent and the stor-ies were excellent. You will need to watch this movie twice to probably understand the fullness of it.

November 23 , 2006


Title: Talladega Nights Rating:

Extremely hilarious!!! Another hit by Mr. Ferrell. I don't think this tops Anchorman, but this was a very good story filled with funny jokes. It had a few twists that kept the story interesting and the acting was purely comedic. I liked that they made fun of the French language. Great film!

August 13, 2006


Title: Barnyard Rating:

Straight to the Point: This movie is hilarious. I was laughing my butt off the whole time. If you have kids, you have to take them to see this. If you don't have kids, this a movie worth seeing. 5 KD Koinz for Barnyard!

August 10, 2006


Title: Miami Vice Rating:

Awesome performances by Jamie Foxx and Colin Farrell. This movie was astounding. Brilliant from start to finish. Enthralling storyline and action sequences were incredible. Truly a perfect drug movie, not comedic like "Bad Boys". Miami Vice is graphic and realistic to the most insignificant detail. A must see for audiences who aren't afraid to see a lot of blood.

August 3, 2006


Title: Lady in the Water Rating:

Written, directed, produced and starring M Night. He definitely made this a masterpiece of storytelling. Great movie with everything in it. Totally rounded film filled with love, comedy, excitement, horror...Should I say more? Just go see it and this will definitely be a great rental when it comes out on DVD. Mark my words!

July 25, 2006


Title: Pirates of the Carribean 2 Rating:

Spectacular! Brilliant! An amusement park wrapped up in a film!

This film was definitely a summer blockbuster! Oh yeah, they did set the new record for a film. Well deserved for Johnny Depp and the rest of the cast. This film is one to watch again and again. Amazing acting and spectacular action. I really don't want to wait next year for the 3rd film to come out, but I will have to especially with the cliffhanger at the end of this one.

If you are a Pirates of the Carribean fan, definitely go see it! If you are not a Pirates of the Carribean fan, definitely go see it!

July 10, 2006


Title: Superman Returns Rating:

A brilliant return from Superman. Excellent story (of course) and great acting. Definitely a well-rounded film, except for the ending. Didn't end with jaw-dropper like you would expect. It was just a shallow ending. Great film though! Definitely a must see for the summer.

July 3, 2006


Title: X-Men III: The Last Stand Rating:

Well I would have to say that since I am in Europe, it seems that every block has some sort of advertisement for X-Men. Whether it is a bus, tram or taxi passing by I am bound to see Magneto, Storm, Jean, or Wolverine.

I had the chance of watching this "finale" of X-Men in Brussels, Belgium. The movies started out great, but I didn't like the way some of the new characters were introduced, expecially Juggernaut and Angel. It just seems like they were thrown into the story just to please people who wanted them in the first X-Men movie (people like me!). Beast was probably the most well introduced character although it completely went against the real X-Men story. Well, I hate to sound like I didn't enjoy the movie. I really did! It was a great film, but went against X-Men standards. Go see it. I had a great birthday present with the film.

June 3, 2006


Title: The DaVinci Code Rating:

The fact that I saw this movie while I was in London makes it all that much better. An excellent film that hits every main point with spectacular action and drama. The sites of the movie are of course awe inspiring; The Louvre in Paris and Westminster Abbey in London really captured the audience's attention. Definitely a must see for everyone who read Dan Brown's novel and whoever didn't read it.

May 20, 2006


Title: Mission Impossible 3 Rating:

Fast-paced, dramatic and filled with the usual Mission Impossible twists. Definitely a must see for any action-seeking moviegoer. The 5 minutes will have you hooked and keep you hooked until the real action starts. Give props to Tom Cruise for doing a lot of his own amazing stunts.

May 6, 2006


Title: V for Vendetta Rating:

If you like a political themed, action-packed film that is perfectly rounded, then you will love V for Vendetta. A film that tells the times. The Wachowski Brothers have done it again. They wrote an amazing screenplay. The action and story are equally stunning. The ideas are revolutionary and this fim is amongst the best I have ever seen. Definitely a must see and must buy.

March 31, 2006


Title: Final Destination 3 Rating:

You just never get tired of watching Final Destination films. This one was the shortest, but packed full of suspense and action. I can say that it definitely concluded well. One DVD 3-pack you will have to definitely buy is the Final Destination set, if you do not own 1 and 2 already.

February 14, 2006


Title: King Kong Rating:

The Critics were Right!!! This is a masterpiece. This is what films should be. King Kong gives you action, adventure, science fiction, comedy, drama, and romance all in one sitting. Peter Jackson is truly brilliant. This movie is worth your money at the theatres. The 3 1/4 hours are good beginning to end. You won't even notice you were in the theatre that long. This is a new classic of all films.

December 24, 2005


Title: The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, Witch and The Wardobe Rating:

Great! Magnificient! Incredible! If you want to take the whole family out to the movies, then this is a must see! The acting was great and everyone should know the story already. It was amazing to finally see this story on screen. I loved the books and it only gets better in the film. Don't miss out on Narnia!

December 19, 2005


Title: Zathura Rating:

A kid's movie for sure. Unrealistic setting had thrown off the movie (house in space). At times they had even went away from the house in space and I wonder if they could breath. But I guess kids would think so. The movie taught a couple lessons to kids and showed parental situations (split parents). The ending was real good. CrazyLady watched the whole film and fell asleep the last 15 minutes. I don't think it will happen to you. Nice story, but compared to Jumanji it was no contest.

November 19, 2005


Title: Jarhead Rating:

If you are a war movie fan then this will probably be one of the best you will ever see. Simply Amazing! Mendez treats them film with such style and the film techniques and story will keep you glued to the screen. The film never got boring and ended very emotionally. I loved the acting which brought some of the actors to a level I have never seen them at. You will know what I mean when you go see it.

November 11, 2005


Title: Flightplan Rating:

For a film that I thought was to be scary, it turned out to be a great action/thriller. It had so many twists that I got angry because I couldn't predict what happened to the girl. The story was excellent and Jodie Foster did a great job. My eyes did not leave the screen the whole movie. I loved the ending. A great movie for current times (Terrorism).

September 23, 2005


Title: Red Eye Rating:

Truly a good film if you like suspense and great acting that pulls you into the film. If you can get through the plane setting for most of the movie, then you are almost through the film after they get off. The film was predictable a little bit too much, but overall it was a nice film to see with the girl on a boring night. Definitely will be a great rental.

August 23, 2005


Title: Valiant Rating:

I wasn't really expecting anything from this movie, but it turned out to be a great kids movie that was great for adults. There were actually no children in the theatre watching this movie with CrazyLady and I. I enjoyed the theme of pigeons being war heroes since it is based off true stories. Gotta love those messenger pigeons.

August 20, 2005


Title: The Four Brothers Rating:

I was really excited to see this movie. The story was alright in the beginning and I love the chase of the suspects who had killed their mother. I loved the ending which had a twist that I wasn't prepared for. I enjoyed the movie and I wasn't dissappointed.

August 12, 2005


Title: Wedding Crashers Rating:

Hillarious!!! A very dirty film, but very, very funny. It kind of slowed down toward the end, but I was still laughing my butt off. I can't wait till this movie comes on DVD. It will definitely be on my shelf, and being replayed weekly. Great movie, but don't take any young children.

August , 2005


Title: The Island Rating:

What an explosive movie!!! I loved every minute of it. This is a summer blockbuster and would have paid to see it again. I cannot wait to buy The Island on DVD. Great story, very humorous, and outstanding action packed sequences. I loved the fact that I got to see a lot of future cars in the movie.

Title: Fantastic 4 Rating:

Yes, yes you should go see this great film. I loved the Fantastic 4 cartoon series as a child and I still do. Jessica Alba was just amazing and I haven't seen her in this type of action since Dark Angel. The story seemed short but closed nicely in leading toward a sequel which I want to wait in line for now. My girlfriend enjoyed the movie and she didn't even want to see it. I give the film 5/5 because of that reason alone.

July 14, 2005


Title: War of the Worlds Rating:

I couldn't wait to see this film. Everyone I know and their mom had seen it before I got to see it. I waited a while! I took my girlfriend to see the film and we were amazed. It was better than I thought. I am still upset that I could have met Dakota Fanning in Melbourne while she was filming Charlotte's Web. I knew I would regret being lazy there. The acting was great, but there were a lot of parts that seemed unrealistic for the fictional film. The ending was also kind of slack for the amount of action that was in the film. A good film overall and it had almost everything that would make it a perfect film.

July 7, 2005


Title: Bewitched Rating:

A solid film that was really told differently and I loved every minute of it. The direction was great. The comedy and acting was excellent. It had a lot of twists in it which made me kept guessing what was going to happen. Will Ferrell made this film very, very funny and it was great casting in general.

July 2, 2005


Title: Mr. and Mrs. Smith Rating:
What an amazing movie! This movie was way past my preconceived notions. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie was purely dynamite on screen. The concept of this movie was great and the action and comedy added greatly to produce a perfect film. I wanted to see this film again after watching it. I wouldn't have minded staying in the theatre for the next showing, the next day.

June 22, 2005 (Saw it Another Time Also)


Title: The Longest Yard Rating:
This movie was packed with celebrities. I really liked the style they made this movie in. Of course, you would know that it is a remake but this was really, really funny. I love the humor and the racial tensions that were in it. They really showcased prison life like it usually is. I wouldn't know that much since I haven't been to prison. Let's just say it seemed more realistic than other movies. I like the experience of watching the movie in Australia since they play their own type of football. The had a touch of Aussie Rules in the film which I liked.

June 7, 2005


Title: Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith Rating:
Stunning, amazingly stunning! The bridge between the old and new Star Wars is complete and in spectacular fashion. Action from start to finish! The movie was intriguing in all senses. The political aspects of the film reminded me of our US government. The acting was incredible, not the dialouge though. I had a few questions unanswered during the film, but they were overshadowed by the many questions that I did have answered. I cannot wait to see this movie again! This movie made me want to watch all 6 movies from start to finish, again. It is far better than Episode 1 and 2 together.

Questions: "How could Amidala not know she was having twins?" - There's a thing called an Ultrasound isn't there?

"Did anyone have a problem with the timeline (went very quick) and the storyline was all jacked up?"

Movie rating: 5/5 - Star Wars Movie: 3/5

May 19, 2005


Title: Kingdom of Heaven Rating:
What an amazing film. It had a long story, but it kept me intrigued the whole movie. The story and action was just really well done. I love the acting in it. I would say this is a must see for all "historical war" movie fans. Ridley Scott is truly an amazing director and I can't wait to see his next film.

May 10, 2005

Title: Assault on Precinct 13 Rating:

This movie was better than I expected. I was interested in the story the whole time. It definitely was not dissapointing. I was eagerly waiting for more at the end of the movie. I thought the acting, storyline, plot, and ending were great and right on target. I would recommend this movie for all, except younger kids since there is a lot of swearing and violence in it.

April 6, 2005



Title: Are We There Yet? Rating:
This movie was very funny and entertaining. I thought Ice Cube did a great performance and a different type at that. I love all of his movies and he was really great character in "Are We There Yet?". The kids in the movie did some great acting and Nia Long was amazing as usual.

Title: Hitch Rating:
This movie was great. A must see for couples. Will Smith is excellent in this role. This movie is funny and loving and a great education tool for men and women. I would see this movie again and again. I cannot wait for the DVD to come out, which will be a must own.

Title: Constantine Rating:
This movie was very strange. It had a good story and great acting. It had humorous parts and excellent special effects. It was a good choice for $5 movie night. Keanu was great in it. Throughout the story the action and plot got deeper and I could not wait till the ending. It was a solid film, but not extremely amazing.

Title: The Aviator Rating:
Fantastic Film...It was longer than I thought. It was well worth it though. I viewed it at a Hoyts Theatre in Melbourne. Highpoint Mall to be exact. Leo was amazing as usual. He is definitely one of my favorite actors and he is one of the most talented. Mr. Scorcese produced another masterpiece.

Here is a good link about Howard Hughes.


Title: Meet the Fockers Rating:
Hands Down...One of the Funniest Movies EVER!!! A must see for ALL. A great sequel to a great first film.

Title: Christmas with The Kranks Rating:
An alright movie. I cannot say that it was stunning. The story was nice, mostly predictable. I like the acting. It was just another Christmas movie. And of course it is for all ages.

Title: National Treasure Rating:
Action packed from start to finish. This was the best movie of the Holidays. Disney has done it again! The story alone is just amazing, and believable. I want some treasure. This is a must see and did I mention it is for all ages.

Title: Alien vs. Predator Rating:
An overall good movie. I would suggest fans to definitely see it. It had some good twists and ending was crazy. I loved most of the plot, some parts were corny but I got over them.

Title: I Robot Rating:
Will Smith has done it again. He makes blockbuster after blockbuster. This movie was truly amazing and made you think about things in the future. This deals with my major of computers and emerging technology, so I definitely biased toward this movie being just astounding. But, everyone should see this and buy it when
it comes on DVD. Great action, twists, cars, and storyline.

Title: King Arthur Rating:
An amazing story filled with action and drama. It was a sad movie but just kept you enthralled. This story was different than the usual King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. This one was unique and showed off a different side of things that happened during that time. Good history lesson in an amazing movie.

Title: Anchorman Rating:
Will Farrell is as krazy as I am. He was unbelievably funny and fit the part amazingly well. He was the best anchorman. Although the movie had some stupid parts and were useless, it held together well and had an OK ending. It had some good lines and some krazy parts that made it worth the money.

Title: Spiderman 2 Rating:

And I thought the first one was amazing. This movie was one of the best sequels of all. The storyline was excellent and I thought flawless. There wasn't a part that I didn't like. Even if your not a fan of Spidey, you should go see this movie.

Title: Day After Tomorrow Rating:
Simply Amazing!!!
This movie was incredible. The best special effects I have ever seen. The storyline of course was excellent. Dealing with global warming and weather disasters is sure to keep your attention and this movie did exactly that from start to finish. It was very dramatic, horrifying, and entertaining. I saw this at the drive-in and I thought a storm was coming.

Title: Shrek 2 Rating:
And you thought Shrek 1 was good...If you are a fan, then you definitely have to see Shrek 2. This movie will keep you enthralled the whole time. It's filled with laughs and drama and it is a good movie to see with another girl or boy. It's also a great family movie. Great action, twists, and the animation is amazing. Great summer title!!!

Title: Troy Rating:

Simply An Epic!!!

This storied title was the best ever made. This is Brad Pitt's best performance and astounded all audiences. This is one of the best movies I have ever seen that captured the times of the Greek powers. This movie is a non-stop thriller, that keeps you wanting more and more. I cannot wait to add it to my DVD collection.


Title: Van Helsing Rating:
Action packed, explosive original title that was just mind-blowing to me. I would love to see this movie again and I cannot wait to buy it on DVD. This is definitely a great start to my summer movie experiences. It was great that they had scenes of Paris in their and a great fight at Notre Dame cathedral. I could relate to the fight
because I've been there.

Title: Dawn of the Dead Rating:
One of the best horror movies I have ever seen. This movie had me on the edge of my comfy seat, eager and anticipating more and more bloody action- packed sequences. This is a definite must-see.

Title: Hellboy Rating:

Excellent story, excellent acting, excellent action. This was a great movie and I would see it again. They actually mention Pittsburgh in the movie which surprised me and everyone else in the theatre. This is a comic book movie and a good one at that.


Title: The Butterfly Effect Rating:

This was one of the best movies with an amazing story that I have seen in a while. Uses a "time machine" plot which is portrayed in a different way. You would have to see the movie to see what I am really talking about. Ashton Kutcher is amazing in this movie and should receive some type of award. You will be indulged in this movie from start to finish. You will loose track of time and feel the drama throughout.

Disney did it again...This was a great movie. I would see it again anytime. Great story and it was original. I love the humor in the story and the action that kept it going. Great movie for the whole family.


Title: Bad Boys II Rating:

Just an amazing movie overall...Great acting, Great Story, Great Action, Great Sequel... It was definitely worth the wait. This movie surpassed the first in many ways and new stunt jobs were amazing. Everyone should see this movie. You will laugh your butt off.


Title: LXG Rating:

This movies was aiight. It wasn't the best. I went to see it just because of the mythical characters and the fact that Sean Connery is in it since he is my favorite actor ("Bond"). The movie was kind of too fakey fake if you know what I mean. But i enjoyed most of it.


Title: Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines Rating:

I was so excited to finally see the third film to Terminator. It had it's Terminator antics and a story similar to Terminator II. But overall it was an excellent movie, leaving me wanting more. They will probably make a sequel to T3 cause it seemed that way. Bring it on!!!


Title: The Hulk Rating:

This was a very sad movie. This was the first movie in a very long time that was putting me to sleep. The action seens were aiight, but they were drawn out. I really wished that this movie wasn't released. I'm glad I went to the cheap theatre to see it.


Title: Finding Nemo Rating:

What an excellent movie. Good movie for everyone. Excellent graphics, story, acting (voices) and the movies is really funny. A chance to see Australia's finest and have a better appreciation for the Coral Reef and all of its animals. Go see this if you have time.


Title: 2 Fast 2 Furious Rating:

Much better than the first!!! They should have just made this movie instead of the other one. I loved this movie and I cant wait till it comes on DVD. Every race car fanatic should have seen this movie already.


Title: The Italian Job Rating:

This movie was the bomb. Great plot, excellent choice of actors and actresses, and good action. I loved everything about this movie. It was serious but also incredibly fun. Good movie for all.


Title: Bruce Almighty Rating:

I really liked this movie. I loved the plot, acting, and the drama/comedy that was in it. Jim Carrey's antics always make the movie good and he was excellent for the part. This is a good movie to see with a date.


Title: The Matrix Reloaded Rating:

One word describes the movie: AMAZING. I am at a lost for words on how to describe it. You just have to see it for yourself. Then you will have to see the third one because it will definitely leave you hanging.


Title: X-MEN 2 Rating:

Great story...Nightcrawler had a great debut. He was one of my favorite characters in the comics. I can't wait till X-MEN 3. All X-MEN fans should have seen this movie already...If you haven't your not really a fan.


Title: Identity Rating:

Excellent story and many twists are involved. This movie is not predictable at all. A great choice for people who want to see a lot of actionand use their brain a little. Movie was actually underrated.


Title: Malibu's Most Wanted Rating:

Story was surprisingly good and the movie was funny. Movie was really underrated. The previews for it weren't really that good. Good movie to see at the theatres.


Title: Anger Management Rating:
Story wasn't that bad. It was a great movie but not a typical Adam Sandler movie. I wouldn't have spent 8 bucks on it. It's almost a good family movie.

Title: Bulletproof Monk Rating:

Story was good for just a quick action flick. It was a great movie but not for Chow Yun Fat. I wouldn't have spent 8 bucks on it. It was funny because "Stifler" was in it. Good movie for DVD or something.
