Saw It On An Airplane
PostedFebruary 12, 2009
This movie was entertaining because I was on a 12 hour flight. If I had a choice, I would rent something else. But as far as chick flicks go, it wasn't terrible.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Guy Delivers
PostedFebruary 12, 2009
This is probably my least favorite film from Guy Ritchie. Having said that, this movie is still better than most movies from the 2008 agenda. Guy is so talented, even his weaker films are really entertaining. If you liked Locked Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, you will like this one.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Just Right!
PostedFebruary 12, 2009
Liam Neeson's superbly intense thriller delivers just the right amount of action. This movie isn't just about kicking butt, it also has a really great plot. The characters are believable and the acting better than ever. The older I get, the more I like Neeson. The older Neeson gets, the better he is. This movie is awesome.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Good To Have Rourke Back
PostedFebruary 9, 2009
I liked this movie a lot. It had a little too much blood for my taste. The acting was great, and the cinematography was amazing. This movie is about two things. Getting older and wresting are the focus of this film. I am not the kind of person who has ever found wrestling entertaining, and I am not old enough to relate to Randy the Ram's age. But even though my real life interests didn't connect with the film's agenda, I was fully entertained. Great movies make you interested in what they are about, no matter what entertains you. They succeeded in making me care about what happens next.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Better Than Jumper
PostedFebruary 9, 2009
This movie definitely had a Jumper-esque feel to it. I thought the acting was pretty good. The plot had way too much going on. There was too much to remember and not enough emphasis on anything. I felt like the writers had all of these ideas for a movie, and no talent for writing a plot. Luckily for the viewer, the basket full of ideas is enough to keep this movie from completely flunking out of Hollywood.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

PENN = Brilliant
PostedJanuary 31, 2009
I never thought I would like a movie this much that is about homosexuality. I was really afraid that they would overdo the sex scenes and I would get grossed out. But the underlying theme is the reason this movie is so good, not the idea of being gay. This movie was absolutely amazing. All of the actors made a brave choice taking part in this film. But when the script and directing are this great, it really wasn't a brave choice but a smart one! Go see this!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Better Than Expected
PostedJanuary 20, 2009
I went on a day full of boredom. I didn't really want to see it, I just like movies in 3D. The movie wasn't all that bad. The acting was average, and the scares were corny. But the 3D made it fun, and the plot was tolerable. 3 solid stars.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

BAD!
PostedJanuary 18, 2009
I left the theatre when I saw a bank robber on a skateboard! Do I need to say anything else? I like Kevin James, but man this was lousy.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Great Acting, Boring Watch
PostedJanuary 18, 2009
I liked seeing the other side of WWII. I liked watching a story about survival instead of winning. It shows the low level soldiers who hunt Jews because if they don't, they will be killed. This movie is a perfect example of humanity and courage. I wish they could have made it a special on the History channel instead of a movie.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

A Rap Movie That Entertains All
PostedJanuary 16, 2009
This movie was great. The only thing I don't like about these movies is the lack of real BIG tracks. The actors were great, but I had wished they actually used the real vocals more. If you liked any of his music, you will love the movie. If you haven't ever heard of this guy, the movie will still keep you interested. Excellent true story turned movie!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
