A review of "Eight Below (Widescreen Edition)" — 6 weeks ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

This movie made me cry. I like movies that make me cry.

Also, it’s one of those movies that makes me wonder how anyone can dislike dogs. They’re beautiful, amazing animals.

I feel like this movie was misrepresented when it was in theaters — 7 weeks ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

I expected a lighthearted comedy, and instead I got a slow-moving story that was actually pretty depressing. And I’m actually hesitant to call it a story—there didn’t seem to be any discernable plot. It was just a bunch of little stuff that didn’t build up to much of anything. Amy Adams was, as always, fantastic, but I feel like Benjamin McKenzie was wasted on this film—his role didn’t nearly do him justice as an actor.

All in all, I found myself mostly bored and ultimately disappointed.

weird, but worth watching — 7 weeks ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

If you make sure to appreciate the strangeness for what it is, you’ll enjoy this much more than if you expect it to be a laugh-outright comedy. And I agree with the other person who said Mark Wahlberg’s character is hilarious.

A review of "Sense and Sensibility" — 13 weeks ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

I’ve seen several Austen adaptations now, and I was surprised that this one actually disappointed me a little. The brilliant Kate Winslet was underused, as was the equally brilliant Alan Rickman. Emma Thompson was far too old at the time to be playing the young Elinor (I know she’s supposed to be a “spinster”, but still). I just didn’t see as much of the witty intelligence for which Austen’s heroines are known.

I tried once to watch this several years ago — 13 weeks ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

and pushed rewind after about 15 minutes. This time I forced myself to sit through the whole thing, but it was tough. Jon Favreau’s character just tries too hard, Vince Vaughn was was so gaunt and emaciated-looking when this was made and it’s hard not to want to feed him a sandwich, plus how many times can you listen to Guy A call Guy B or Action C “so money”?

This is a guy movie in the way that chick flicks are chick flicks. Men see nothing wrong with going out to a bar, picking up a pair of girls and not really caring who ends up hooking up with who, as long as some hooking up happens. And in the meantime these guys are so caught up in what they think the girls WANT to hear that I spent most of the money just wanting to tell them we’re much more impressed by who you are than who you’re not.

This would’ve been one star, but I like Vince Vaughn and Ron Livingston to give it an additional pity star.

A story about "Mr. & Mrs. Smith (Widescreen Edition)" — 14 weeks ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

If you’re looking for eye candy, you’d be better off buying a poster than watching this. Poor performances from actors who are usually much better than that, and the plot is generic and uninteresting.

WORTH CONSUMING!

and watched this out of boredom, but I ended up enjoying it. I had no idea John Lennon was a funny guy. But Ringo Starr… what a tool.

A story about "The Brothers Grimm" — 15 weeks ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

What a phenomenally awful movie. There were all these things that really seemed to have nothing to do with the plot, and so by the time it finally started moving along… it was over.

A review of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Full Screen Edition) (Harry Potter 4)" — 16 weeks ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

So far not my favorite of the four HP movies I’ve watched, although I didn’t hate it. My one real complaint? New. Dumbledore. Sucks.

The title says it all. — 16 weeks ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

It really is super BAD. That’s one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen in my life. I like Michael Cera, I like Seth Rogen, but even they couldn’t disguise the stench of this pile of crap. Jonah Hill’s character (in most things and especially this one) is repulsive in every way, and the only funny parts were when he got hurt. I so wish I hadn’t paid to rent that. Ugh.
