This is what people are hyped up for?
PostedNovember 22, 2008
I didn't know what to expect but the previews seemed to give a hint of excitement. In reality it felt like I was watching a 2 hour conversation. I didn’t read the books so I can't call my self a twilight fan, but everyone else in the theater were hardcore fans so I’ll tell you what they thought of it.
The three girls next me, sporting Team Edward and bite me t-shirts, described the film as "uh interesting". A group of teenagers came out of the theater saying how the book was ten times better than the movie. One guy was telling people waiting in line to get in, "not to waste their money"!
Of course there were some people that found it entertaining and that will probably see it again, but the majority of the audience wasn't satisfied.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

AWSOME BOND
PostedNovember 16, 2008
You don't have to be a fan of the Bond films to enjoy Quantum of Solace.
It was everything I expected and more. Amazing action sequences that kept you on the edge of your seat wanting more.
Once again Daniel Craig does a fantastic job as 007. He plays the part so well and there is just something very believable about his portrayal of the character.
Fans of all of the movies may be disappointed to know that the signature line, "Bond, James Bond", was cut from the movie. Other than that it was everything you could ask for in a Bond movie.

Everythings better in IMAX!
Even Madagascar.
Great movie for the whole family.
Madagascar 2 was better than the first one. It actually had some humor that every one of all ages can relate to and find funny. I brought my 10 year old neighbor and we both enjoyed it. Of course he liked a little more than i did but it was still enjoyable for me too.
I would recomend this film to everyone.
Parents, go with your kids. Teens, go with your friends. I garentee you'll have a good time!

I didn't expect much coming into this movie and based on my expectations it was fairly satisfying.
Predictible and not very unique but had a few parts that made me jump.
I read the user reviews for Molly Hartley and i think that authors of the reviews must have had somewhat high expectations for the film. Realize that it is just another teen horror flick. It wasn't great and it wasn't that scary but if you like that kind of thing then you will enjoy yourself.
I would recommend waiting for it to come on DVD or watch it on HBO or CineMAX or STRZ or what ever you have because its a light horror movie that keeps you awake but doesnt scare the crap out of you. Save it for a rainy afternoon.

Intense!
PostedNovember 2, 2008
The most intense, heart wrenching movie of the year. I am still shaking.
A timely story of a mother's devotion and love for her missing son will no doubt have you in tears by the time its all over. The film's depiction of the incompetence of the LAPD and ignorance of Angelina Jolie's alleged "son" was so extreme that you felt as though it was exaggerated but you knew it couldn’t have been.
If all you know about the plot is what you have seen in the previews, be prepared to blown away because it is about so much more than you think.
The performances were powerful and captivating. The portrayal of the story was fantastic. It was detailed but wasn't overdone. If you are looking for a good, Oscar-worthy flick, Changeling is the one to see.

Its Over...
PostedOctober 24, 2008
High energy, romantic ballads, and a few out of place dance numbers.
The movie was much better than the first two, High School Musical 3 exceeded expections.
It had a little bit for everyone. Although it had a much more mature vibe than the 1st and 2nd movies, it still felt like high school musical and it was sad when it was all over.
It was a feel-good movie and it got me pumped!
I would recomend this movie wether you liked the others or not.
Kids, especially, will love HSM3. So if your looking for a good family movie, high school msical is the way to go. Enjoy!

Excellent
PostedOctober 19, 2008
The film contained powerful and captivating performances from the whole cast. Dakota Fanning was precise in her ability to bring to life a character that so many of us have fallen in love with.
If you read the book, you well know that this is not a happy-go-lucky, laughing with your friend’s type of movie. It was heart-wrenching and, at some points, overbearingly sad but you fell in love with the characters and the story.
I felt that the writers and producers really understood that they needed to create a film that could be loved as much as the book and they were successful in doing so, which is not the case with many films based on novels.
I think they did the book justice and I would recommend the movie as well, you will love it!

The Little Movie That Could
PostedOctober 13, 2008
The film centers on the evolution of 2 stranger's friendship and evidential love, as they search the streets of New York City for their misplaced friend.
The overall plot was intriguing and satisfying. One could call it the Juno of 2008.

The movie caught my eye the first time I saw its preview and as a result I had high expectations, but I have to say it did not meet my expectations.
I expected the flick to be much funnier and I was let down. Although Michael Cera and Kat Dennings' chemistry was both awkward and outstanding, Ari Graynor steals the spotlight with her witty personality that had everyone in stitches.

I would definitely recommend seeing Nick and Norah, but maybe wait until it comes out on DVD.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Fantastic!
PostedSeptember 20, 2008
I was very excited to see Burn after Reading in the first place, but it totally exceeded my expectations.
Take some of the most recognizable actors in Hollywood, give them roles that take them completely out of their territory, throw in some CIA stuff, a couple of affairs and relationship problems, and you've got Burn After Reading. It was full of dry fun humor that I just couldn't stop laughing at. Although there were some parts that were actually sad and disturbing you couldn't help but laugh at those scenes too.
I would not recommend this film if you want to see a movie that actually makes sence. It hardly had a plot or ending but it was fun to watch and everyone in the theater including myself seemed to really enjoy it.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
