The Losers

This is the type of movie that has been missing for quite a while! Jeffrey Dean Morgan was surprisingly convincing as a covert team leader with lady problems. While Zoe Saldana was great in her part, she doesn't look capable of beating up Mr. Morgan but they certainly had her doing a lot of hand to hand. But it was obvious who the breakout stars were of this movie... Chris Evans and Columbus Short of course. They both had superb comedic timing and were able to make all of their jokes totally believable and the characters that really came to life. Honestly I say this is definitely a good movie to go see in the movie theaters! Not only will you be laughing heartily but the massive blow up scenes and seemingly impossible gun shots make it more than worthwhile.

Death at a Funeral

Death at a funeral can simply be characterized as Dead on Arrival. Don't waste your money. There are some very funny parts in this movie but the rest of it literally put me to sleep, which in all fairness a movie has not done in a long time. I highly recommend you see the original which was released in 2007 with rave reviews and starring Ricky Gervais and we all know he is funny. So save your movie money and your rental money on this movie, because honestly anything else would be better!

Date Night

Well if every couple in the world that was stuck in non-stop routine/boring land had a night like this they would stay together. This movie was cute, and all the funny parts were indeed funny, but alas this was no "Hangover" for the married people. Honestly it seemed like couple central, with all the gayes, daters, and pregnant people. So while it is funny and if there is nothing else that you want to see then it is at least an entertaining time. But in all honesty you could save your money and see it when it hits DVD and be fine.

Why Did I Get Married Too

This movie was very well done, it was what had been missing from the last two movies that he put out. You know the shiteous "I can do Bad All by Myself" and "Meet the Browns", I am trying to avoid "Madea Goes to Jail", which really isn't even worth my talking about. So unlike the rest "Why Did I get Married Too" was AWESOME! Seriously side splitting funny. It shows all the things you wish you could tell your significant other, as well as all the things that we don't say. Either in a movie theater or renting on DVD this movie is worth your time.

Clash of the Titans

Well was it WOW!!? No, but it was okay. I personally love anything to do with mythology. However the fact that Perseus was the only person with an Australian accent. Everyone else sounded reasonably Greek. There were a few very interesting fight scenes, and the graphics were good. But honestly I wouldn't recommend you wasting your money on going to see this in the theater, and if there is nothing else out and you find yourself going to see it, don't bother shelling out the extra cash for 3-D. It really did nothing extra for the movie. Overall not something that sucked but, really not worth going to see in the theater.

How to Train your Dragon

I don’t like animated movies, and personally 3-D makes my head hurt, but this movie was awesome! The story was totally original and it kept me guessing the entire time. When you see a movie that totally makes you forget about reality and take a break, and really isn’t that what movies are for anyway. Whenever I can walk out with the decision that I want a dragon too! Well then the movie must be good. Way to go America Ferrera and Gerard Butler for voices. It kind of blows that it kind of messes with my mental picture of Gerard Butler, because I saw a picture of him at the premiere and his head looked huge to me, which of course is what I associate with cartoons. If you’re an adult take the late show, those pesky children tend to laugh too loud and talk the whole way through. I would tell you more but I don’t want to spoil it for you.

Remember Me

If they had made the last 10 minutes of this movie the first ten minutes it would not have been shiteous. Apart from being pointless the best part of this movie was Robert Pattison and his “My start lets me see your soul “look. Emily de Ravin did not translate onto the screen well, at all. And how do you have an Australian playing a girl from Long Island with no accent whatsoever, isn’t that a given that anyone born and raised there comes out with that wonderful accent? At least Robert Pattison was able to sound like someone who grew up in Manhattan, but that could have been the smoldering looks the camera picked up that distracted my hearing. The story line was choppy and hard to follow. The point is that this could have been a good story, the foundation was there, but between casting and bad editing (maybe) the movie sucked. It was a total snoozer. Don’t rent it, don’t buy it, and because it is so bad you won’t be able to see it anyway.

Dear John

First off let me say that I LUV, LUV, LUV Nicholas Sparks books, I have read several of them. I also LUV’d The Notebook. But this movie was worse than crap. It was two hours of masturbation without a happy ending. Channing Tatum looked amazing and while I could dedicate an entire website and blog to worshiping his abbs, they didn’t make up for how bad the movie was. How do you have a movie set in the south, where the main characters don’t sound like they come from anywhere near the south. They may as well have grown up in New York the way they came off. And for the people making these movies, where do you come off screwing up perfectly good books? We already know that when done right his books translate to the screen beautifully, so where did you go wrong. Don’t see it, in a theater, on dvd, or on a plane. It was awful!

Repo Man

I had totally forgotten how good looking Jude Law was until I saw this movie. I am loathe to remember seeing him in any movie where I wanted to lay down and have him take me now. Forrest Whitaker played the big, dumb, loveable friend, who really does mean well. Alice Braga who I have never really paid attention to, did a good job as a high, twisted, and beautiful girl who in the end is worth it. My favorite part of the movie is a cross between The Matrix “Free Morphius” scene and a crazy pain is pleasure kind of thing. It is definitely worth going to see in the movie theater, but if you rent it, there is enough stuff for the girlfriend to watch. Plus if you are a guy there is a lot of blood, guts and shoot’em up scenes. Did I also mention that my mother liked it.

The Green Zone

In all honesty I walked into the movie theater with my mind made up about this movie. I was so sure that it was the Bourne anything but set in Iraq. What I got was a good story line and the feeling that this was probably how it all went down. Matt Damon was good looking as usual, Greg Kinnear was un-impressive but played a bureaucratic shit stirrer quite well. Final conclusion, you can wait for DVD on this one. However if you are a fan of things blowing up, and military take downs, it is worth going to see in the theater.
