smart and funny
PostedFebruary 16, 2010
I realize the year is just kicking off, but it is one of the best comedic performances by the entire cast that I've seen in I don't know how long. Definitely leave the kids at home, it's rated R for a reason, but this is a movie that can offer a money back guaranteee if you don't like it. I've seen it twice now and that has happened maybe 3 times in the last 5 years.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

fun but not much different from the first
PostedJanuary 6, 2010
The kids really loved it, I was a bit bored, but I wasn't there for me. It had some funny parts for adults, the villian in the movie is just too creepy in a don't let your kid go near a guy like this. "Dave" was barely in the movie so was a bit strange and took a long time to set up the caregiver of the Chipmunks in this movie, so that was awkward. Hey it's a kids movie, adults may be bored a bit, but good movie for the kiddos, enjoy them while they are young.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

In a word WONDERFUL!!!
PostedNovember 30, 2009
I've also seen this movie twice because I wanted the entire family to see how truly blessed they are, and what the kindness of others can do, and how despite adversity you can overcome. I don't want to spoil the movie for others, but this is one of only two movies this year that I have wanted to see a second time, it's just that good. I did hear that the young man playing Michael, or Big Mike lost 100 pounds to play the role. I like the cast they used, and the fact that they gave the follow up at the end with the real family. It was just great and I recommend it to all.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

genius of music, but....
PostedNovember 13, 2009
I grew up w/ MJ-Thriller was my 1st LP-kids get your parents 2 explain what an LP is-I don't think MJ would have wanted footage seen he was a perfectionist x 10! He sounded coherant up to circle at the end & he got off on a rant I tought maybe he was on something-music is great but I choose 2 remember an earlier MJ as many choose 2 remember Elvis &I think its a waste at still a young age for MJ 2 be gone. 2 many people telling him what he wanted 2 hear. That is my editorial-movie was not a good movie but for footage that was meant for his private collection they pieced it together very well to make a tribute to MJ. Music was why you come 2 this movie & go to a theater with a really good sound system or you will not enjoy the experience.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Best Action Movie This Year, and more...
PostedOctober 20, 2009
Literally gripping from the first scene, it's hard to review it without giving too much away, but at first you are heartbroken for GB's character, then sort of into the vengence, then it continues to turn, and you turn on him. What a great movie, it is disturbing in many ways obviously, so this is a crime scene of the worst kind to start with, then the payback is very bloody, so if you are sensitive to this then you may want to go see the latest chick flick, but this is definitely all action, but the ladies you will get a little shot of GB's backside if that will motivate you to let your guy see this with you.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Funny, and good for a date...
PostedOctober 15, 2009
Can't believe it's still showing at this point after it's been released on video, the wife and I saw it sometime back, this is the type of movie that has made Sandra Bullock a star, she should stick to it, and that's advice for Julia Roberts also, stick with what your fans like to see you in. Funniest parts were with Betty White, who is a hoot, and it was of course very far fetched story line, but you let that go and have fun with it, the scene in the forest when SB starts singing, till the sweat....well you know the rest, or you will, this is one I will buy for my wife, she loves Sandra Bullock movies, I like seeing Craig T. Nelson pop up in movies, loved the series coach, and Betty White, enjoy this treasure while she is still around.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Fun time
PostedOctober 11, 2009
3D was very cool, only issue was with the theater itself, AMC better get with it or they are really going to start losing business, need to institute zero tolerance for cell phones and post sign saying so, and you idiots who just open your phone you need to know ITS IRRITATING! You should know better by now. Now back to the review, took the kids, and even though we have it on DVD the 3D was really cool, and 3D stunk when I was a teen, see Jaws 3D, or uh rather don't, two movies are a bit long though, so make sure you are not sleepy, I found myself really tired toward the end of the 3 1/2 hours, good thing there was a 10 min break.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Very good overall
PostedOctober 11, 2009
My wife and I went, and believe me this is not her type of movie, but she loved it and we laughed a lot in this movie. This was the type of movie that the entire audience got into and laughed/groaned all at once. Woody Harrelson was very funny, wait around after the credits also and you will get a little Caddyshack memory. It was just a fun movie all around, no Oscars for this film, but people who say it was too "yucky" I have a question, did you look at the title of the movie? Also there should be a PG-15 or something because there was no nudity, and language was nothing a kid doesn't hear in the halls of the highschool, and less gore than most video games. Bottom line-Fun Movie, I'm giving 5 stars for the genre
Yes, I recommend this movie.

so so, what for matinee
PostedOctober 11, 2009
not my favorite, and I'm pretty easy to please, but this comedy lacked the comedy. There were a few funny parts, but it just dragged on, found myself looking at my watch a lot, the people next to us got up and left, we stuck it out, again some funny parts, but this is one I would have liked to have waited for video, just wasn't that great, the funny parts were in the commercials.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Fun Movie for all
PostedMay 4, 2009
I went to see this expecting little as this has been done many times before, but I enjoyed the spin they did on this movie. I don't follow the young actors all though my kids do, but I am glad to see Matthew Perry in something even for a short time, and I just think Leslie Mann is cut out for a lot more than her husbands films, so would like to see her in more. Zac Efron could be something a lot more, he is a charming guy, and doesn't come off as arrogant on the screen. He is a young guy and age will catch up to him oneday, but the right guidance and he could go places. I liked the story and I recommend this for the whole family.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
