Fun, gory, zombie romantic comedy

This is a date movie for people who can handle zombie gore done in the proper "R" rating. It doesn't ask much but to enjoy the ride. The characters are sufficiently simple AND interesting to hold your attention. The gore is over the top as any zombie film should be.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Phasers Set on WOW

Skeptical is how I felt when I heard that J.J. Abrams was stepping into the Trek Business. While I like his work on "Cloverfield" and "Alias," I was also dubious of his work in an existing franchise "Mission Impossible 3." Finally, after the long wait and the dud that was the (last Next Generation) 10th Trek film (which broke the "Odd Movie Trek Films are the Good Ones" pattern), we have the reboot.
The film itself is beautiful. It requires an IMAX to appreciate, but even then the scenes move so quickly you feel an urge to see it again to catch the little Easter eggs that film makers left for the Trek fans of the previous years. Highly recommended.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Lame Title, Good Movie, Overly Critical Reviews

If you've decided you're going to believe some of the reviewers, don't bother. If you come into it with an open mind, you'll enjoy yourself. Plaudits to the young actors playing the two leads. This is a good cast that seem to enjoy inhabiting the world they're in. It stumbles only when it tries too hard to be in continuity with the first three X-Men movies. No, this movie isn't going to change your life. It's about a bunch of psychopaths with super-powers carving a swath through history. It features characters walking slow-mo from the burning wreckage of a helicopter. You won't cry a river of tears for their pain. Read a book about childbirth if you want to know about pain.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
