Kick A$$- Stupid, no redeemable value.
The Fourth Kind-A good thriller/scary movie.
The Accidental Tourist on cable... I thought the Oscar should have gone to the Corgi instead of Geena Davis!
I've watched a series and a half of the Doctor Who fan film called Doctor Who: The Eleventh Regeneration in about as many days! (It was started before they cast Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor)
While series two is getting much better in the production, there's something about that home movie feel that I just love. That's why even though they're almost laughable, I just LOVE series one of Time Agent. Kids running about pretending to be adults, a lovable cyborg kid determined to make sure his caretaker gets his sausage rolls, chickens in the garden, yep, this is entertainment!
Boys Don't Cry is a very sad tale of pre-transgendered youth trying to find his way in the world and the cruel consequences that occur as a result. Feeling male inside, Brandon was born of a female body, but lives as a male. This confused kid's use of chicanery leads to murder when a couple of ex cons fear Brandon will testify against them.

We watched How To Train Your Dragon and The Other Guys this weekend. Both were really great! ...Dragon was gorgeous and so sweet, I loved it. the characters were all really lovable. And ...Guys was totally unexpected and we laughed nonstop!
I can't wait to see Black Swan, and I kinda want to see Burlesque, too, although I'm not expecting much out of it. Eye and ear candy, possibly, but not much more. Maybe I'll be surprised. ;)
Red Planet
We watched the Book of Eli yesterday - an odd, odd ending, pretty dark post-apocalyptic tale, but not without hope.
That was a twist, wasn't it?Quote:

Kokopup i have to agree with your review on The Town, i found it quite good, not the best movie i have ever seen or the worst, probably rate it a 6/10,not sure i would have paid to see it though, luckily i had free tickets, so it did not matter.:)
watched "The Deer Hunter" on cable last night - I know it's been ranked as one of the 100 best movies of all time but I had nightmares after watching it.
I really want to see "How Do You Know" - one of the Chicago film critics said to ignore all the reviewers that didn't like it, and don't miss it. Also... the upcoming movie "Contagion" was filming along the Metra tracks in Western Springs, one town over from me and a LOT of people saw Matt Damon! How cool is that?!! (he's too young for me but he still makes me drool):D So- good old Western Springs had a brush with fame!

"The Fighter" w/Christian Bale and Mark Wahlberg. If Bale doesn't get at least a nomination for the Oscar, I'll be surprised. Based on a true story and Bale nailed the guy and his mannerisms. Excellent movie!
Seven Years in Tibet starring Brad Pitt. This is an Outstanding movie IMO.
I gave it 4.5+ of 5 stars which I don't do often.
