Movie Reviews

I watched a few movies last night. I figured I'd share my thoughts on them here. Now, just remember, I'm no Ebert and I don't do this for a living...

Star rating:
* - What were they smoking?? * * - Eh. * * * - Pretty good. * * * * - I really liked it. * * * * * - Awesome!


He's Just Not That Into You
* * * 1/2

As chick flicks go, I liked this one. Not something I feel I need to rush out and buy, but good enough to rent. If OH were watching it with me, he'd probably heckle the entire movie. Even though I had a pretty good idea about how it would end, it was a fun movie to watch.


Passengers
* *

Anne Hathaway tries a serious role that doesn't include a makeover. I kept having flashbacks to The Sixth Sense while watching this. It felt somewhat disjointed to me. And I kept wondering when it would get good.


Wanted
* * *

This movie is a good 'guy flick'. Lots of action and explosions and guns! Felt a hint of Fight Club in it at times. There are a few scenes I really got a kick out of (but am not going to write about just in case you've not seen this movie yet) and I wasn't yanked horribly out of my suspension of disbelief. If you start putting thought into it, you will probably find lots of errors about this and that. If you want a decent movie with lots of flying bullets and some nifty explosions, give it a shot.
