August Rush - 10/10
One of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. Anyone with an appreciation for music will love this. I teared up several times during this movie. |

Ghost Town
7/10 Enjoyable but not laugh-out-loud funny that often. A few chuckles but more a highly watchable film than an hilarious one. |

Naked Gun 7/10.
First time actually seeing the first one. Big Leslie Neilson fan, so give it a 7. |

New Avengers - 7/10
A fun animated adventure that sees the children of the Avengers take on their parent's killer and bringer of world subjugation, Ultron. In many ways the Marvel version of Teen Titans without the quasi-anime style. It would certainly merit a TV series should they continue this story. I also kept finding myself trying to tie this with the Ultimate Avengers movie that came before; though no clear evidence is present, its not impossible to think of it that way. The plot is Cartoon Network ho-hum 'kid-power', but fairly straight forward. I enjoyed it overall. Resident Evil: Extinction - 4/10 Spoilers Ahead: Fucking stupid. You just know they're in trouble when they force down bits from the first (and best) RE film just for a pathetic attempt at continuity. Sorry, doesn't work. RE:E's setting is too far gone from what the first two established. I didn't like RE:A because it followed the game too closely, and in this third installment the movie series abandons game continuity. I'd think that would be a good thing, but now I feel they should have used some game plots. This movie does not know what to do with itself. There are scenes totally disconnected with the rest of the film. It was more like a series of short films; I expect titles saying "Episode One: Alice vs Hillbillies", and "Episode Two: Alice Dreams of Crap". Seriously, the first 5 minutes was utterly useless. Then when an actual plot gets going, you don't care (see how important the five minute rule is?). Characters are killed off seemingly for no reason other than to force an eventual reboot of the series, and Alice's character enters some pseudo Jean Grey-Phoenix level of presentation that I cannot follow as a sympathizer. Oh yeah, her blood was the cure for the T-Virus all along. Paul Anderson, thank you for Mortal Kombat, now stop writing. Last edited by Kalyx triaD; 11-07-2008 at 05:44 PM. |

A must grab for Aaron Eckhart fans. It's also the first movie I appreciate Jessica Alba's acting. |

Iron Man 2/10
Seriously, I saw this in theatres and thought it was horrible. Just watched it again today, rented it, thought it was even worse. After the blowup scene in the beginning, it gets extremely boring. All talk, not enough action, and even the action scenes weren't that great. I turned it off 45 minutes in cause thats how bored I was. |

Jeff Donovan and John Malkovich brought their A-game to this. Another stellar directing job by Clint. |

Repo! The Genetic Opera 9/10
Amazing. Any movie that can make Paris Hilton even SLIGHTLY attractive to me is good in my book. Anthony Head, Sarah Brightman and all the songs were just awesome |

Awesome movie and just a perfect role for Aaron Eckhart. I was very pleasantly surprised at how much I liked this movie. Definitely worth the rent or buy. |

The Incredible Hulk
7/10 So much better than that last one but still not up to par with shit like Batman Begins etc.. Harold and Kumar: Escape from GB 9/10 Saw the unrated version which had some parts that prolly needed to be left out but all in all it was fucking hysterical.. NPH is my hero.. |

Never actually read the review, but from what I'd heard about it, they basically trashed it because of Paris? Pretty lame reason, considering her role is kinda minor, and even then she really wasn't that bad, I'd even say she was good

Slumdog Millionaire - 10/10
Crazy heartwarming and also heartbreaking in bits. Such amazing cinematography, too. The guy who plays Salim and the guy who plays the host of the show could earn some best supporting actor nominations, I think. Everyone in this movie was so good. Kevin Smith: Sold Out, A Threevening with Kevin Smith - 8/10 Some parts of it drag, but overall it's goddamned hysterical. Especially the story about Live Free, Die Hard. |

The Girl Next Door
10/10 For a romance comedy, this was pretty solid. I guess I liked it so much because I was expecting it to be complete shit, and just another 'teen movie' like so many others. But it was genuinely funny, and I laughed out loud a LOT, which I don't usually do when I'm by myself. |

Get Smart: 8/10. It could have been better, but Carrell is a great Smart, and I loved the chemistry.
Pan's Labyrinth: 10/10. Inspired, imaginative, and some FUCKED UP SHIT. The Incredible Hulk: 7.5/10. Waaaaaay better than the Hulk, better than most comic book movies, but after Iron Man and Batman Begins, I can't rank it any higher. Iron Man: 9/10. If it had a little more content, I would have probably given it a perfect score. Fucking loved it, though. |
