Take Me Home Tonight, was a rip off of Can't Hardly Wait
6 March 2011
In short this movie was terrible, I did not enjoy this movie. My simple message is that if you want to make an 80's movie actually try to make it good like Hot Tub Time Machine.

This movie stars Topher Grace, Anna Faris, Dan Fogler, and Teresa Palmer. Dan Fogler was the only good actor in this film, Topher Grace was decent, Teresa Palmer wasn't great, and Anna Faris was as always, terrible. I'm just glad that Faris decided to take a role where she didn't play a dumb blonde like in all her other films like (The House Bunny, Observe and Report, and Just Friends).

This movie was also written terrible, the dialogue between characters were short, and some dialogue wasn't even needed. The jokes were mediocre at best. I really only truly started cracking up when Dan FOgler did cocaine in the film.

This movie is just a rip off of every other 80's movie, like "Can't Hardly Wait" for an example. Just like "Cant Hardly Wait" the plot consists of a great big party, where college grads do some crazy stuff, and one guy plans to tell this girl he has known his whole life how he feels.

So yeah this movie was not good at all, acting, writing, and being original wise. That is why I give this movie 2/10.

Takers (2010)
6/10
Takers, not the best robbery movie, but entertaining.
29 January 2011
I knew from the first I heard about this film I was going to like because it is my type of film. I also like the cast including certain actors like Idris Elba, Hayden Christensen and Paul Walker. I also did not expect T.I. to be a great actor. I only think he was good because the movie is based on crime, I don't think he will be an Oscar winner. The one person I was really upset to see in this film was Chris Brown, he was terrible in the film and terrible in real life. I tell you though this movie suits him because of his past with Rhianna, trust me when I say Chris Brown is a coward-less ass.

Besides the cast the movie was good, not great, not OK, just good. I noticed at least a handful of mistakes in the film. Some things were no realistic, now I know what your thinking "but it's a movie it is all fiction." That may be true but this film is based on stuff that could happen so it is a film that should feel realistic. I'm going to spoil one thing about the film, but it is nothing big. When Zoe Salandana's character dies I thought it was a little to graphic even for a film like this.

I thought that the way the film was shot and the locations in which they were shot were excellent. Another things I like was that they didn't abuse special effects and kept it simple. I think I enjoyed the film even more because of the crowd tonight. The crowd made hilarious puns when certain things happened through out the film. In all honestly the film missed some opportunities and made mistakes. I expected allot more from the film due to the cast, story, and topic of discussion. I tell you the movie reminded me allot of Grand Theft Auto 4 which was one of my favorite games, but it still wasn't enough for me. I give this a 5 out of 10 stars.

The Social Network, was a great network of success.
29 January 2011
You know many people are always skeptical when there is a movie where it involves a website or a certain or based on something involving this society we live in. The reason people don't think this movie could work is because it is based on the global phenomenon facebook.

I in all honestly don't become skeptical towards these types of films. I personally believed that this film has a huge chance at winning at least one Oscar this year. Either for best picture, best actor, or best supporting actor.

Jesse Eisenburg was spectacular at portraying the genius and or just a crazy kid willing to do anything to do what he thinks is right. Justin Timberlake was also good, this was probably his best film. Unlike his other films Justin was serious and top notch at his role as the creator of Napster (Sean Parker), but the actor who was absolutely perfect was Andrew Garfield.

Garfield was amazing he really set the stone for this film his acting I believe is what boosted this movie even more than it already was. The story itself is unbelievable because it shows you how FaceBook, came about, and shows how Mark Zuckerberg was what some people would say an evil genius, I personally believe that Mark was just a misunderstood kid who wanted to prove he was better and capable than anyone else in his field of expertise.

Although I did catch one mistake in the film, there was a reference to Snooki from the "Jersey Shore". The thing is the reference was made during the timeline in the movie which was at least either 2006 or 2007 at the point of the reference. 2006-2007 there wasn't even a thought of Jersey Shore because it wasn't created back then. If they didn't make the mistake so obvious I would have given the movie a 10 out of 10 star review, but I dropped it to a 9 stars out of 10 star review. Overall it was a pretty good movie.

Dinner for Schmucks, was a real Schmuck of a film.
28 January 2011
Well I woke up on July 30th and I realized that I missed the midnight premiere. To solve this problem, me and my sister woke up early at 11:00 to see the early show to be the only ones in the theater, but of course allot of people did what we did, so it was semi packed.

Besides that, the main point is the movie. I expected a little more than what was handed to me when I saw this movie. I mean yes it is funny but, when it comes to comedy movies, they always show most of the best parts in the commercials so some of the jokes you expected to come at you, Although there were many jokes I didn't expect witch were hilarious.

Steve Carell and Paul Rudd are a great comedy team. But even though there both there can be only one who is better. WOW…. I feel like this post is turning into a combat, well….. it's not. Anyways if I had to choose who was better Steve Carell is the better out of the two in this film. He is a true comedy genius. Anyone who can act like an idiot like he does is awesome. I don't know how he doesn't get embarrassed.

If I had to give a rating for this film I would give it….. 5 stars out of a total of 10 stars. It's a great summer comedy film.

Predators (2010)
6/10
Predators, may have topped the original
28 January 2011
Finally at the last minute I finally saw Predators. And when I say last minute, I mean this was totally last minute. If i didn't see this when I did I would have to wait till it came out on DVD and Blu Ray, yeah I don't think I could wait that long.

The best thing about this movie was that it was not a remake, which topped the ball for me. This movie was basically a continuation of the first Predator film with Arnold Schwarzenegger. In this film instead of being in Guatemala like the first film, they are in Predator territory, basically their plant. Ten killers are sent to this planet to be hunted by the Predators. One of the killers is the character Isabelle who was supposed to be the character from the first Predator. It was definitely hard to believe that it was was supposed to be the same woman because of the fact that the actress Alice Braga is only in her 30′s, that was one of their mistakes I caught during the film.

Besides that error the film was awesome, it is just like the other 2 films where it is basically that each person their gets killed off one by one and then just leaves to of the main characters left, that's the typical horror movie plot. I was very skeptical on this film in many ways. Number one would be that Robert Rodriguez was directing this film. Number two was when I saw the commercial I thought it was a total remake, well I was wrong. After seeing the movie, I was blown away on how good the movie was because even though I love horror movies, they are not perfect. This movie was close to perfect. It was pretty good considering it was a horror film. To finish off I give this movie 4 stars out of 5 stars.

Salt (2010)
7/10
Salt, is great like pepper.
28 January 2011
Another great Summer blockbuster. The funny thing about this movie is that this movie came out during when the whole Russian Spy's in America were captured in real life. Anyways besides that funny fact, this movie was simply awesome. It was truly Jolie's comeback, even though she really didn't take a break from acting, I'm just saying it is her comeback to a leading role in an action flick. The movies focus was on the feud and history between Russia and America, which is a topic people still talk about. It is one of those movies that sort of explains how Russia feels about America. It also deals with nuclear power, and what would go on in a situation of that power.

It is quite a confusing movie, but you start to understand as the movie progresses. This movie is a type of movie where you think one thing is going to happen but something else occurs. It is also in a certain way a who done type deal. The characters can also confuse you. The one character that you don't know what they are thinking is definitely Jolie's character. You can't tell whether she is a spy or not, she does one thing that makes her seem evil, but then it turns into a good thing.

This movie reminded me a whole lot like the Bourne movies because of the action and suspense and a mix of the actual feud between America and Russians. Anyways 4 out of 5 stars for this summer blockbuster.

Toy Story 3 (2010)
9/10
Toy Story 3, is the best animated film ever!
28 January 2011
I have waited 10 years for this to finally come, finally Pixar has concluded the Toy Story franchise with Toy Story 3. Although Toy Story 3 was funny at times the movie was also very touching especially at the end. The end was the saddest part of the whole movie, I admit I shed a slight tear because it reminded me that growing up has it's perks but also it's downs. One of it's downs is that you start to miss the good old days where you felt like you can do anything and that you cant enjoy your toys like you used to. Anyways besides the sadness Toy Story 3 is an instant classic. Probably the best movie of the year and best movie of the summer of 2010. I would give it 10 out of 10 tars for the excellence in the story, the animation and just the movie itself. This movie will probably be considered one of the best films ever created as time progresses.

Edge Of Darkness, Mel Gibson is Back!
28 January 2011
I saw the new thrilling and yet very sad movie Edge of darkness last weekend witch was the long waited return of Mel Gibson's acting career. The story as you may know from the commercials is that Mel Gibson's daughter is murdered and he seeks revenge. The movie itself had so many awesome scenes that you would never expect. Even though the movie is very awesome action wise it is also a very touching and sad movie and it really makes you think about people you know who have died or you just think about life in general. Any ways 7 Stars I would give this movie and I would say without a doubt Mel Gibson is 100% back. Do me a favor go see this movie.

The Company Men, raise their stocks to a great film!
4 January 2011
Well I probably am one of the first to see this movie, because of the fact it has not come out yet in theaters. I was able to see this due to someone I know who was given a preview DVD to review this film.

To start off I would like to say that Ben Affleck's acting career has finally been rising, and has been getting a bunch of publicity. From the guy from two awful films Armageddon and Reindeer Games, since Affleck's role as Doug MacRay in "The Town". Affleck has really been on a role. His latest character Bobby Walker in "The Company Men" was another great performance to add to his best films.

"The Company MEn" deals with a very heavy topic which is the recession we are in these days, and how 1000's and 1000's of workers and employees are being fired to reduce pay in companies. Ben Affleck plays Bobby Walker a big stock broker who was just fired, and is having many obstacles thrown in his way trying to find a new job.

I find the topic to be correctly used, due to the fact that this deals with what is going on right now as we speak, it really is correct to put this movie in theaters the time it did. The acting was superb, I mean really you got all these academy award winners, Ben Affleck, Tommy Lee- Jones, Chris Cooper, Kevin Costner, I mean honestly a great ensemble of a cast in a great movie can really generate a crowd.

When the movie is released on January 21st I expect it to do well in it's box office debut and come out with at least 20 million in ticket sales. Guys this movie is a definite must see movie, not only because it's a great movie, but it helps you understand to not take things for granted, and helps you understand the hardships of how people like Affleck's character "Bobby Walker", deal with being laid off from work and having a hard time getting a job. I give this film a 8 out of 10 stars, the reason i only give it an eight is because I want to save my 10 out of 10 stars for movies that are on the ball perfect.

The Town (2010)
10/10
The Town, Great Movie!
5 December 2010
You know not allot of people say that they are excited to see a movie, but I was extremely excited for this movie to come out, since the get -go. I thought I would ruin the film for me if I continued to watch trailers and behind the scenes, but honestly it didn' reveal anything to me. I was excited for many reason's, one because my second favorite actor Jeremy Renner is in this film, I haven't seen Ben Affleck for a while, and it was from the producers of "The Departed."

The Town is an instant classic in my book. There were no mistakes through out the progression of the film. John Hamm was perfect in his role as FBI Agent Adam Frawley. There was some comedy in the film that I enjoyed, and the good thing is that the comedy did not ruin the film. There are also some many twists and turns in the film that you have to pay attention to the film. The film has many genres, love, deceit, action, drama, and adventure.

The basic gist of the story is Ben Afflecks character, Doug MacRay is trying to get out of the robbing business, he had been grown up with because of his father Stephen MacRay (Chris Cooper). Although he wants to get out he has to face many obstacles, like family, friends, FBI, and fellow robbers. James Coughlin (James Renner) is the major factor in preventing Doug from leaving the mob. He is the loose cannon, who just wants to rob rob rob.

I loved this film, I truly believe it is one of the best films made in 2010. I would rate this with a solid 10 out of 10 stars for all the effort put into the film. One last thing I want to comment on is the gun fight towards the end. It was great because they included no music to make the fight seem more realistic, which I thought was a great idea. Now allot of people will say the just wanted to copy the gun fight in the movie Heat. I think they didn't, but if they did, they did a hell of a better job than Heat did so yeah I loved this film.

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, or does it?
5 December 2010
I love these type of movies for two reasons. One, it is the type of work my mother is involved in, except for the greed and crimes involved. I also love these films because it exposes how much Wall Street tries to screw over a bunch of innocent people and/or their own co- workers.

On to the movie review. If you saw Wall Street one you know that Gordon Gekko is the main focus and an evil son of a bitch, Josh Brolin this year is 2 times as evil as Gekko. Brolin successfully captured his role perfectly, but Brolin wasn't the only stand-out in the film. Shia LaBouf, actor from the (Eagle Eye, Holes, and Transformers) tops the ball in his role as Jake Morre. I believe that Shia has a chance at his first Oscar nomination for his role. I also think Shia has revived his career, because Transformers 2 really hurt his chances at being taken seriously by movie critics including myself.

Just like the first film I hating the ending of the movie. Besides the ending, I believe Michael Douglas wasn't on top, he has seamed to lost his touch as Gordon Gekko, I don't think it's his fault I think it is because of the fact that he has not played Gekko for 23 years, that he forgot how to show the characteristics of Gekko.

The film was at it's best, I believe "The Town" has a better shot at winning best picture this year than Wall Street Money Never Sleeps. I give it a 8 star out of 10 star review.

Nightmare on Elm Street, classic Horror film.
5 December 2010
A classic film to watch on Halloween night, "A Nightmare On Elm Street". The classic film directed by Wes Craven, the classic Horror director. This film was always a fun thing for me to watch, me and my friends love to watch it during Halloween night. Robert Englund will always and forever be the best Freddy Krueger.

Although this movie may seam terrible now, it was a sure classic in the 8O's, and it still is for die hard Elm street fans. The story wasn't great I have to admit it was a little rough around the edges. I believe the remake had a better story than the original, but the original was still better in other ways.

Basically the story is that all these kids on Elm Street are having the same dream of Freddy trying to kill these teenagers, for no reason. In many ways the kills were awesome especially Johnny Depp's character's death, I won't say what it is for people who haven't seen it. I give this film a 7 out of 10 star review. Continue reading my posts this countdown for more Halloween action.

The Boondock Saints, the saints of action.
5 December 2010
And Sheppard's we shall be, for thee my lord for thee, Power hath descended from thy hand that our feet will may swiftly carry out thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to thee, and teaming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Fillii, et Spiritus Sancti. This prayer is the signature prayer in which both Connor and Murphy MacManus say before they execute the damned. I tell even though I have only been a fan of the saints for a few short months now, I feel like a huge die hard fan. I even have there coat that they wear. I would here how great the film was from by great friend Matt, how good the film was, then I finally watched about two months ago, and now it is one of my favorite movies ever.

The movie takes place in Boston, where there is probably millions of Irish folk there. There just happens to be two brothers in particular, who seek out the evil of Boston and hunt them down at all costs. I thought this was a great idea. So did Troy Duffy, Troy is the director, writer and creator of the Saints. Troy apparently wrote the script at this bar he had been working for at the time. Some director came to the bar one particular night and helped Troy begin the Saint movies.

I personally think this film deserved more credit then it was handed. The movie did not receive a nomination for any award whatsoever, witch I think is ludicrous, that movie deserved at least some recognition. I thought Sean Patrick Flannery did an excellent job as well as Norman Reedus as the MacManus brothers. Anyways I highly recommend watching this movie, it is simply awesome. 9 out of 10.

The Bourne Ultimatum, best Bourne installment.
5 December 2010
My favorite Bourne movie in the series. The Bourne Ultimatum was awesome, it topped all the other Bourne movies. It has so much action, more action then the other two. This was very fast-paced, I think they probably filled in all the unsolved answers from Supremacy. I hope they didn't answer all the questions because I would very much like Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon make another film. They also brought back actors like Joan Allen and Julia Stiles but they brought in David Strathairn as Noah Vosen.

The plot goes as this, Bourne tries to find a journalist who continues to write stories about Bourne's past including Marie's death. He tries to track him down but the journalist was also wanted by the CIA in New York, so the CIA sees Bourne with him so Bourne is yet again tracked down by the CIA. The only reason Bourne was after the journalist because he wanted answers on who started Bourne's assassin ways. So while looking for answers he also has to deal with CIA.

Now in my Supremacy blog, I said I would discuss the same conversation in both films. At the end of Supremacy there is a conversation between Bourne and Pam, this conversation also happened in the middle of Ultimatum. This conversation was the way that they were able to continue with Ultimatum. So the 1st half of Ultimatum is a quarter of material of Supremacy they wanted to use in Ultimatum instead of Supremacy. So basically the conversation is a lead into Ultimatum. I thought it was a clever move. 5 out of 5 stars again for The Bourne Ultimatum. To leave off if Paul or Damon sees this blog I hope they will listen to a die hard Jason Bourne fan to make another film because I really want to see a fourth film.

The Bourne Supremacy, a sequel that worked.
5 December 2010
This wasn't my favorite film and or installment in the Bourne movies but it was still great. The BourneSupremacy answers some questions left unanswered in the first film. Although you won't know everything till you watch the third film. This film I think wasn't more on the action/adventure side and had more drama so the story could continue properly and as smooth as possible. The film I think was well shot, and even though Doug Liman did A great job on the first film I think Paul Greengrass the director of this film and Ultimatum. Paul has also directed Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and Green Zone. Paul got the opportunity to direct thee film because Liman left the project as director and became a producer for this film.

This film also had another great car chase scene, which I thought was also the best scene in the film. Besides these car chases I love how faster, smarter, and more slick in this film after regaining some of his memory. The plot goes as this, after the first film, Bourne intends to leave his past of an assassin and lead a new life but, Ward Abbot (Brian Cox) frames Bourne for a murder so there would be no leads to him as an accomplice of TreadStone. After being framed and losing his girlfriend Marie (Franka Potente) he decides to hunt down anyone involved in framing him. He then runs into some new and past people like Nicky (Julia Stiles) and Pam Landey (Joan Allen) who thinks at first Bourne is the enemy but looks more into it to discover he isn't.

There was one scene that they use also in The Bourne Ultimatum, same conversation and everything but, I'll get into to that in my next review. This movie really enticed people for Ultimatum to come out because, it is a semi cliff hanger, I'm not saying what it is you will have to watch it to find out. This movie was very creative and well written in a way that really makes you feel your in the movie. I also give this film a 10 out of 10 stars.

The Bourne Identity, my favorite film of all time.
5 December 2010
As you can tell I am a huge fan of The Bourne series because of the fact that Matt Damon is my favorite actor and that I own the movies on DVD and Blu Ray, now on with the review. Allot of people thought at first that this was going to be a rip off of James Bond but they were sadly mistaken. It turned out to be one of the greatest films of 2002. It was rated #8 out of the Top 10 films of 2002. This was a great movie, to say the least every opportunity was taken which made it very successful. I say that this film made Matt Damon's career, not to say he didn't have great movies before that, but this movie was his best in my eyes. Him playing the character Jason Bourne made his career.

The story was brilliant too because it had not been used so far in any other movie that I know of. I am not going to spoil the movie but I will just give a little summary. Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) is highly trained spy who loses his memory, but just because his memory is lost doesn't mean the agency that hired him forgot about him. So he is put through many obstacles because his agency tries to terminate him because of a failed mission. This movie is filled with action and adventure, it also had a great cast. Besides Matt Damon they had Chris Cooper, Brian Cox, and Julia Stiles.

My favorite scene in the entire film would have to be The Mini Cooper chase. I thought it was well edited and well directed by Doug Liman. The action was perfect in this scene, when I was younger I would constantly watch that scene, I would fast forward all the way to that scene and just watch that scene. It completely obvious how many stars I give this film and that would be 10 out of 10 stars.

Get To The Greek, and make us laugh.
5 December 2010
Another comedy classic. They took two of the most promising comedic actors and put them together to make one great film. The one thing that I was not expecting was P Diddy being that great of a comedian. P Diddy was hilarious and laugh out loud funny, I had a hard time controlling my laughter to all his jokes and segments. Russel Brand also makes another great performance by bringing back his character Aldous Snow who was also in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Jonah Hill however, yet he was funny he lacked in the field of jokes. All of the top jokes, go to P Diddy and Russel. I thought that he could be a little more funny. I'm not saying he was terrible he was just OK. Anyways I suggest seeing this movie soon because it is sure to be a classic. 6 out of 10.

Prince of Persia, entertaining, but not the best.
5 December 2010
Ya know it's a little confusing with the Prince of Persia franchise. Well here's the timeline of the franchise. First they made the first Prince of Persia video game in 2003 was "Prince of Persia the Sands of Time" which is now the movie above. So after that game they made 3 more sequels. Now in 2010 the new movie has come out. Now they took the poster of the movie and made it the cover for the new prince of Persia video game. So it's a little confusing. Now heres my review of the movie, Jake Gyllenhaal has made another great performance but it isn't as great as "Jarhead" or "Brothers". I was very skeptical of this movie because many video game movies are very bad. Like the "teenage mutant ninja turtles" movie, that was the worst, but this movie was good for a video game movie. Although the princess in the movie (Gemma Arterton) was not great in this movie, I think hey could have picked a better actress. The effects and storyline of this movie was what I thought the best and key factors of this film. If I had to give a rating on this film out of five stars I would give it a solid 6 star rating.

Inception (2010)
7/10
Inception, will blow your mind.
5 December 2010
This was without a doubt a perfect film. Christopher Nolan is on a roll, first The Dark Knight and now Inception. This is another movie where you can't talk, text or go to the bathroom during the progression of the film. This movie was simply mind-blowing, I knew that this was going to be a excellent film by just looking at the poster. This was also an all-star cast, with some heavy hitters like Leonardo Dicaprio and Michael Caine, and some great up-coming actors like Ellen Page and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Joseph caught me by a major surprise, his acting was superb. Also I was surprised that the movie would end out in a "Cliff Hanger", I'm not going to say what happens in the film because I don't want to ruin for you guys because the movie is to good to just read the spoilers. Anyways 10 out of 10 stars.

Despicable Me (2010)
8/10
Despicable Me, cutest movie of 2010
5 December 2010
Possibly the cutest movie I ever seen. I always just thought this was just going to be another animated comedy but, it was a terrific movie. With Steve Carell leading a team of other great actors like Will Arnet, Miranda Cosgrove, Jason Segal, and Russel Brand really put the movie in a great spot to become a close to perfect movie. The character that I think that will capture every one's heart is Agnes played by Elsie Fisher. Another thing that was a key factor in the film was the little yellow minions, they are also pretty cool. Steve Carell is also the main factor because without him this movie wouldn't have come about. So just to give a rating out of 10 I would give it a 8.

Jonah Hex (2010)
1/10
Jonah Hex, is a hex on movies.
5 December 2010
Well I made a prediction and I was right. I was right that this blog will be the first Summer Movie that totally blowed and bombed greatly. Here is two major reasons why this movie sucked. First not a lot of people have even heard or seen about Jonah Hex ever. Second, even though Megan Fox is very attractive I sad to say she cannot act. The only decent film she has ever been in was Transformers. After that Megan has only been in roles that made her less popular with critics. All her movie roles are just being a hot women none of them were serious acting roles. All the movies she has been in try to lure teens and 20 year old men to come and see the movie by luring them in with Megan's attractiveness. Now here's just all the quick notes. Bad plot, bad acting, bad choice in actors, and worst idea for a movie. To sum up 1 star out of five stars for this film.

Knight and Day, was OK
5 December 2010
Well to start off I knew the critics weren't going to go for this film. Either because Tom Cruise was in it or they just didn't like it. Now when I say "because of Tom Cruise" I am not implying that Cruise is a bad actor I'm saying it because allot of people aren't fond of Tom Cruise. I personally think hes a great actor but just had a mini freak out during 2007. But, getting back to the movie, it's a very fast paced action flick that can be enjoyed by all. It also has a great taste of comedy in the film. Although I think the story line happened to fast throughout the film. I felt the two main characters met to quickly. Besides that I also liked that through the movie you can never really tell if Tom Cruise's character is a good or bad guy. To sum up i give this movie a straight 5 out of 10 stars for this film.

The Last Airbender, should be M. Night's Shyamalan's last movie.
5 December 2010
Yet another failed attempt by M. Night Shyamalan to produce a decent movie. The Last Airbender was awful. The worst attempt of making a TV show into a movie. First of all the screwed up big time by picking the worst teen actors I have ever seen. Second they screwed up the arrow tattoo, there was to much design on his tattoo. The story was just every episode in the TV series condensed into one movie. The only good thing about this movie is that it concludes the story. Unfortunately the TV series was cancelled before anyone could see how it would have ended. Although I was happy about that I am not saying the ending was great. Also the movie went to fast, and the effects were to overdone which made the movie bad. So anyways 1 out of 10 stars is what I would give this movie.

District 9 (2009)
8/10
District 9, gets a 9 out of 10.
5 December 2010
Finally I had enough time to sit down and watch this movie that has been on my most anticipated films list. It was one of the greatest films ever made. It is like a better version of Cloverfield. Although instead of placing the film in a famous city it is in Johannesburg, and instead of just a monster this movie deals with aliens. It stars of as a fictional documentary of how the aliens came about and then the movie switches into the aliens and the humans sides of the story, which I thought was brilliant. The computer animations were insane. Also just want to point out to anyone who is grossed out easily that you should not watch this film because there are some pretty hardcore gross scenes throughout the film. Any ways 9 out of 10 stars for this film.

The Other Guys, WIll Ferrel is back.
5 December 2010
I was sure that Inception was going to go for 4 weeks in a row on top but The other Guys topped them with 35 million.

Holy crap this movie was awesome. I did not expect anything to come from this film because of the fact that Will Ferell had lost his touch in film for a while. With his streak of terrible movies I thought the streak would continue. This movie was more funny than Dinner for Schmucks, Step Brothers, but not as funny as the Hangover or Hot Tub Time Machine.

I was particularly happy for two reasons one, my favorite wrestler of all time is Dwayne Johnson, and that they used the song "My Hero" by the Foo Fighters, those were just two little kicks for me.

Not going to spoil the movie but basically Terry Hoitz (Mark Wahlberg) and Alan Gamble (Will Ferell) are detectives who hate each other, but through out the film they learn to co-exist. This is like any typical cop comedy, but this one packs in all the punches and jokes. Anyways 7 out of 10 stars on my part.
