Over the last 2 months I have made it my job to catch up on a bunch of movies. Believe it or not, my small town still has a video rental place, so in honor of old school movie watching, I have been a very good customer. Here is a quick and dirty listing of the 38 movies I have watched in the last 60 days and what I thought.
The REALLY BAD:
Prince of Persia: Even Jake G. couldn't hold my interest!
Jennifer's Body: Since Megan Fox cannot act, I am now convinced that she is indeed a demon, for real.
In the Name of the King: The acting was so bad this adventure became a comedy.
Bounty Hunter: Ridiculous!
The Ugly Truth: Perfect title.
Easy A: Easily an F.
Nine: Another musical that seems forced and pointless.
August Rush: I knew what they were TRYING to do, but they failed miserably.
The Killers: Rehashed, remodeled, nothing new here.
The Other Guys: I have no words to describe how unfunny it was.
Marginally Entertaining
From Paris with Love: Rys-Meyers was decent, Tavolta still annoys.
The Crazies: Horror movies are required to have inconsistent plot lines right?
The American: I sat through all that and then it ends like this? Ug! Nice cinematography.
Love and Other Drugs: Had high hopes for this one but you can't be everything to everyone.
Death Proof: It's Tarrentino. Not a fan, but I watched it anyway, just like his other flicks.
Hot Tub Time Machine: Parts were funny.
Remember Me: Sad ending, mish-mosh story lines.
Not to Shabby
Ghost Writer: Keeps you interested, nicely shot.
The Brothers Bloom: Keeps you guessing, quirky.
The Social Network: New reasons to curse Facebook.
Red: Fun with older actors...it's about time!
The Express: Not just a football movie.
Book of Eli: Many questions, interesting story.
District 9: Not your average Sci-Fi. Entertaining though frustrating at times.
Munich: Interesting view of a terrible tragedy.
Best of the Bunch
Catfish: Crazy documentary. I don't want to say any more.
Eat Pray Love: Surprised me. Really enjoyed the journey.
The Fantastic Mr. Fox: Amazing, quirky, well written.
The Young Victoria: Beautiful, historical, love story.
Daybreakers: Another surprise. Great take on classic vampire myths.
Casino Royale: Stylish, exciting first outing for new James Bond Daniel Craig.
The Road: Unsettling, emotionally charged and haunting.
Whip It: Fun, kick-ass girls and Ellen Page!
Julie & Julia: Cute, inspiring and interesting.
The Town: Thought the trailers showed everything, but it was worth the time.
I Love You Man: I LOVED it man!
