Meh.

What can I say? A love story should make me remember what it was like to fall in love. It should make me wipe away tears when the lovers' hearts are broken. I did neither. I was hoping that Gordon-Levitt would shine, but he was just as morose when he was happy as he was when he was sad.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Funny, Raunchy but Predictable

The theatre was packed, and at times the audience laughed so loudly that the dialogue couldn't be heard. At other times, the audience would also shout out predictions about what would come next, and they were always correct. It was a much raunchier version of When Harry Met Sally, including a better restaurant scene (you know the one I mean). Unfortunately the ending was predictable and there was something artificial about getting there. The director missed some great opportunities to explore the softer side of Butler's character and the harder side of Heigl's.
Katherine Heigl was looking her best, but unfortunately Gerard Butler wasn't.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Dark Knight Disappoints

I have to say that I didn't care for this movie. The plot was muddled, with Batman not knowing whether he was a hero or villain and sometimes doing very un-heroic things. He jutted out his jaw and growled his lines as the Batman, which I found so distracting and distrubing that I couldn't pay attention to what he was saying. Heath Ledger was brilliant as the joker, but if you're going to see Heath, don't bother--he is so immersed in his character that you can't enjoy the time that he's on screen. The entire thing was too long and too violent, and it ended badly, leaving me disappointed and depressed rather than entertained.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
