Fun Banter-Very Enjoyable
PostedDecember 17, 2010
Hi, The Tourist is fun , enjoyable and easy on the eyes. Angelinna and Johnny click well together and his character of a love struck school teacher is great. Many critics have ripped this movie as usual they miss things that are fun. Just look at what the critics really like and no one goes to see most of those movies. They forget that people want to spend their money, have a good time or be entertained. Many guys could see themselves as Johnny's character and wishing for a chance to meet someone like Angelina. The theater I was in was full and was split 50-50 guys and girls. When leaving you could see that they laughed and had a great time. So will you. It is a fun treat.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Incredible graphics drive movie
PostedDecember 17, 2010
Hi, Here is what I liked about Tron - great graphics, super effects (feels like you are in a video game during certain battle scenes, the effect most gamers would love to have. Saw this on IMAX 3-D and I highly recommend seeing it this way. It was fun and tied in the original to lead us into this upgraded rendition.
I was not a big fan of the first one and until the 2000's Disney wasn't either since they kept it off off DVD for so long. This one I am a fan but - The Jeff Bridges Dad character comes up short of feeling anything for him - he plays it like a half dead zen master with no feeling. My daughter loved Sam (Garrett Hedlund)and thought he was so hot as did all her girlfriends at this midnight showing. The 2 best characters are Zeus and Quarra. It almost takes itself too seriously with a quantum Physics lesson in computer programming. Not alot of humor (could have used more). Our theater was full of gamers, computer geeks and original fans. One guy had dressed as original- white suit w/ blue light outfit that everyone wanted pictures with. The ending was a let down (spoiler alert) when Quarra wanted to see a sunrise rise and they filmed it with clouds, couldn't find a decent sunrise?

Great Fun for all
PostedNovember 28, 2010
Hi Tangled is a fun clasic Disney animation and makes for a great time at the movies. It is the 50th animation so they took extra care in creating wonderful back drops and scenes.
We laughed and were touched by the flying lights scene. Musical songs are very good but not anything you will be singing after the movie - not like the music in Lion King or Beauty and the Beast. I was only disappointed in that the previews showed a scene with the horse that cracked me up everytime and it is not in the movie. So take the family or go with a date it is fun for all.

Harry Set it up for grand finale
PostedNovember 19, 2010
Went to Midnight showing with a few thousand of my friends. Every theater at AMC 30 was sold out. Movie is in 3rds - Beginning Awesome- Middle Boring-Ending 3rd awesome. Every Harry fan should go see it.
Even none Harry fans will like it. Loads of things from other Harry Movies and a billboard of Daniels play is even in London scene.
Can't wait to the finale in Summer. I was the oldest person in the audience. Should break all weekend earning records $170 Million plus is my guess

Intense Thriller
PostedNovember 14, 2010
Great Action Movie. A totally intense movie that holds your attention and on the edge of your seat. My daughter said during the movie that this was the most intense movie she had ever gone to. She Loved it. I am a people watcher and the audience was leaning forward in seats or just mesmorized during the whole movie.
Go see it and hold on for a great ride.

Best Picture for 2010
PostedOctober 3, 2010
This is the best movie I have seen this year. The story is great and it is very interesting to learn the history behind the scenes. The theater I saw it in was a sneak preview and they stood and applauded at the end. It got a standing ovation!!!! Hello when was the last film you went to and the audience responded like that. GO SEE IT and tell your friends!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Magic is in the air
PostedJuly 14, 2010
Saw this at midnight movie and the crowd enjoyed it alot. I can't believe Jay Baruchel gets all these girls by being so inept. His nerdy part is played almost past comfort zone but is very believable. Magic is in the Air and when you see it you will understand the pun I used. Fun light hearted. See if you can catch the Fantasia references throughout the movie. I half expected Mickey Mouse to pop up and I think he is in there somewhere. Go enjoy.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Be Prepared to Laugh
PostedJuly 10, 2010
Funniest movie I have been to in years. My 17 yr old daughter and her friend laughed thru the whole thing as well. Minions are great. If they made more movies that make you feel this good they would have more hits. Tired of all the potty foul mouthed junk they try and call humor? If so then go see this movie!!!!
Highest recommendation I can give and I dont give that very often.

Fun Movie
PostedJune 23, 2010
This movie starts out very funny and the action sequences are very solid. You can find alot of inside jokes or other spy movie things, from Our Man FLint, James Bond, Bourne, Mission Impossible, Jerry McGuire, plus a few Im sure I missed. You like the characters, bad guys could have been meaner, Running of the Bulls is cool . Just a fun movie to spend some time. My daughter loved it she is 17 so it appealed across the ages. Go see it and have some summer fun.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Growing Older isn't easy
PostedJune 20, 2010
As we all grow up the things we did as kids changes, playing with toys, certain games and then we just toss them into a box or sell them at a garage sale. Toy Story captures how the toys feel with humor and a message. It is loads of fun to watch 3-D Imax was ool but 3-D not fantastic but the story is.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
