Funny People

Though the word "funny" is in the title, this if more of a dark/serious comedy, yet enjoyable.

The Ballad of Jack & Rose

Sincerely a bizarre relationship, in a well put-together film.

Charlie Bartlett

A charming, funny and unique film, who doesn't enjoy a lovable misfit?

Wednesday, July 07, 2010

The Ugly Truth

Perfect for your "girly movie night" needs.

Friday, July 02, 2010

Timer

Interesting concept...and timer that counts down and goes off when you meet your soul mate.

Sunday, June 06, 2010

Spread

I just watched it because of Ashton, but it kind of made me not like him.

Sunday, May 09, 2010

Something the Lord Made

Makes you realize and appreciate how amazing the art of medicine truly is.

The End of an Affair

Such a classic, frustrating love story, go with your heart people.

Wednesday, April 28, 2010

The Hurt Locker

Hmmm...had no desire to see it, won best picture, felt obligated, should have stuck with original notion, now I am confused: best picture?

Julie & Julia

I feel kid of stupid blogging about a movie about blogging, nevertheless, it twas quite good.

Thursday, April 08, 2010

Alice In Wonderland

A little bit trippy, a little bit sappy, and overall entertaining; just right.

Sunday, March 21, 2010

Zombieland

To quote TBS; very funny.

March of the Penguins

Quite fascinating and unbelievable, more attention-capturing than expected.

Sunday, March 14, 2010

Watchmen

Hard to follow at moments, but that might add to the intrigue.

Saw III

As creepy and bizarre as the first two!

Saturday, February 27, 2010

Four Christmases

Had its funny moments, guess that's really all I have to say.

Monday, February 22, 2010

An Education

Probably should have been a bit more disturbing than it was, a 16 year old and a 30 something...but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Sunday, February 21, 2010

Extract


Simply clever and funny.

Monday, January 25, 2010

Gran Torino


(Not to be mistaken with Monte Carlo...) Everyone said it was good, still had only minimal desire to see it, so threw it on the Netflix queue, thank goodness because everyone was right!

{500} Days of Summer

I am confused about whether I liked it or not, so I guess you should just see it for yourself, unique.

Sunday, January 10, 2010

Up


Once getting beyond a the tear-jerking first 15 minutes or so, the movie became adorable and hilarious, they captured dog personalities perfectly.

Monday, January 04, 2010

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Harrison Ford really is aging, it's gotten to the undeniable point...but I loved the film & the Indy charm is not lost.

Friday, January 01, 2010

Doubt

Some people are just really stubborn, and some films are just really slow.

**EDITS DOWN BELOW**

I am in the process of making this site a bit more user friendly. Hopefully, the alphabetical index will help someone who might be thinking of seeing a particular film, but would like to first see it's ratings. Though, if I were you, I'd just click on any of the 3.5 or above ratings and choose from there...but that's just me.

Thanks!

Tell No One

A surprise all around, never heard of it, but it came highly recommended from 2 reliable sources, and did not disappoint.

Last Chance Harvey

Painfully embarrassing at moments, you know, the kind that makes you squirm for the character, but charming as well.

Sherlock Holmes

Wow, great chemistry between Sherlock & Watson, and enthralling plot.

Tuesday, December 08, 2009

Food, Inc.

Did not quite finish it, not because it was boring or disturbing, but because we started it at 9pm on a week night; so I will finish this documentary on our meat & produce someday.

Brothers

With the acting trio of Natalie, Tobey and Jake how could one possibly go wrong!?

The Invisible

On the lines of a teen flick, but enjoyable none the less.

Saturday, November 21, 2009

Bruno

Best watched while drinking and needle pointing, in my experience.

Sunday, November 15, 2009

Love in the Time of Cholera

I think there was a lack of chemistry between actors.

Saturday, November 07, 2009

The Men Who Stare at Goats

This, on the other hand, was a slight let down, funny, clever, unique, but just missing that extra something.

The Proposal

Did not let down; I heard from many that this was not just your ordinary chick flick, and that male and female alike found joy in this film, to repeat TBS, very funny.

Confessions of a Shopaholic

Just a good, cutsie, carefree, chickflick.

Friday, October 30, 2009

I Love You, Man

Hil-arious, just a very upbeat, well-plotted comedy with some good chemistry between actors.

Tuesday, October 20, 2009

The Brothers Bloom

Wow, how unexpected, did not remember even hearing about this one in the theaters, and it was phenomenal, cute, entertaining, clever and funny.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Better than the 3rd X-Men, Wolverine is still hot, lots of open ends therefore lots of potential for never ending X-Men movies!

Saturday, October 10, 2009

The Invention of Lying

Great concept, ok production.

Sunday, October 04, 2009

Sunshine Cleaning

Was lead to believe it was more a comedy then it turned out to be...but fantastic as is.

Saturday, September 26, 2009

Run Fatboy Run

So silly.

Wednesday, September 16, 2009

Alien's vs. Monster's

Shockingly cute and hilarious.

Thursday, September 10, 2009

The Soloist

Thought provoking, and beautiful, but I do wish good ol' Stanley Kubrick could have been around to make this one...

Saturday, September 05, 2009

Little Children

A bizarre and uniquely done film worth watching, on the lines of Unfaithful: affairs, criminal activity, etc.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall

A reliably funny comedy.

Monday, August 31, 2009

Inglorious Bastards

Surprisingly wonderful, creative, and enrapturing, even with all the gore.

Wednesday, August 12, 2009

Body of Lies

Talk about slow, I fell asleep for the middle hour and woke up to almost no plot progression.

Sunday, August 09, 2009

Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist

Despite the slight high school aged audience appeal, I loved it.

Wednesday, July 29, 2009

Rachel Getting Married

Quite a somber film, seemed like my type, but not quite right.

Saturday, July 25, 2009

Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince

Phenomenal, of course, never ever want it to end...

Sunday, July 19, 2009

The House Bunny

Fine & cute.

Twilight

Not nearly as horrid as everyone said, I was told NOT to watch this film, but got everything out of it one could expect and hope for in a teen vampire love flick.

Monday, June 29, 2009

Wall-E

Very cute and a bit deep for a children's movie, huh?

Monday, June 22, 2009

The Hangover

A funnier, more realistic version of "Dude Where's My Car".

Sunday, June 21, 2009

The Promotion

Very short, cute, funny and enjoyable.

Thursday, May 28, 2009

Tropic Thunder

Interesting/impressive cast, and very original plot.

Friday, May 22, 2009

Quantum of Solace

Very action-y, kind of pointless, but Craig got better looking.

Tuesday, April 21, 2009

Role Models

I don't know her name, but that woman is funny - can't BS a BSer.

Sunday, April 05, 2009

Slumdog Millionare

Quite a good film, but not Best Picture.

Saturday, March 28, 2009

Disturbing Behavior

One of those films you want to see as a teen, and probably would have loved as a teen, but are just stupid when watched in adulthood.

National Treasure: Book of Secrets

Not as good as the first one, but a fun film if you feel like a goofy, action flic.

Things We Lost in the Fire

A beautiful movie which seems as though you should be sad the entire time, but you're kind of not?

Friday, March 20, 2009

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

Very thought-provoking throughout the entire film, a bit sad maybe.

Saturday, February 28, 2009

Saw II

Just as disturbing and fascinating as number one...I like that these movies aren't too long.

Wednesday, February 11, 2009

Taken

Liam can play a real bad-ass, loved it.

Monday, February 02, 2009

Made of Honor

I enjoy a good slap-stick film or a good "girly" film, but I do not enjoy one that cannot decide between the two.

Down To You

I never felt the love, but maybe this is a more real life relationship example.

Sunday, January 18, 2009

Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights

Not sure of the title, but not important, no one needs to see this film.

Don't Mess with the Zohan

Another silly one, stupid, pointless, etc. but still entertaining.

Harold & Kumar: Guantanamo Bay

Just silly, plain flat silly, and these characters have charisma.

Sunday, January 04, 2009

Son of Rambow

As cute and creative as expected.

Valkyrie

Don't count this one out: just because you don't like a person, doesn't mean they are a bad actor, unfortunately.

Sunday, December 28, 2008

Becoming Jane

I liked it.

Tuesday, December 23, 2008

No Reservations

Couldn't get into the movie, the characters or those particular actors weren't very convincing.

Wednesday, December 17, 2008

Idiocracy

Not sure how I feel, love the theory behind it, and love the actors, but not so thrilled with the execution.

Soul Plane

Actually, for a movie with no apparent plot for the first 93%, it had some good moments.

Wednesday, December 10, 2008

Live Free or Die Hard

For an action movie (which may be my least favorite genre) I was completely into it.

Sunday, November 16, 2008

Definitely, Maybe

Not a movie I will crave to watch, but not one I cringe to think about, so enjoyable.

Monday, November 10, 2008

Last Holiday

Cheesey, feel good, TBS movie.

The Kite Runner

The movie realy captured the images and story, very impressed with the book to movie interpretation.

Sunday, November 02, 2008

Zack and Miri Make a Porno

As the title may suggest, the film is on the dirtier side of funny, but funny nonetheless.

Tuesday, October 14, 2008

I Am Legend

Not bad for a movie with such a far-fetched plot, very well executed.

Monday, October 06, 2008

Dan in Real Life

Any movie with big, chaotic, dysfunctional families hits home with me...very amusing.

Friday, September 12, 2008

Burn After Reading

"WTF!?" is the phrase you will repeat in your head at least 23 times throughout the film...in a very amused way.

Thursday, September 04, 2008

Once

Was it sad, or happy?

Tuesday, September 02, 2008

Elizabeth: The Golden Age

As always with anything from that era, the costumes were amazing.

Monday, August 18, 2008

Hancock

A very pleasant film with a bit of humor, and a bit of, well, obviously PG.

Friday, August 15, 2008

Pineapple Express

A slightly more intense version of Harold & Kumar, very amusing.

Tuesday, August 05, 2008

Cloverfield

Someone recommended this...and I am not sure who it was, but I'll have to remember not to listen to them ever again.

Thursday, July 31, 2008

Stepbrothers

So unexpected, so funny, so many one-liners.

Wednesday, July 23, 2008

Batman: The Dark Knight


Yes, it is every bit as good as everyone expected and said it was- it may be long, but you never want it to end.

Sunday, July 20, 2008

2001: A Space Odyssey


A true experience.

Saturday, July 19, 2008

Mamma Mia


Never saw it onstage, unfortunately, but loved the big screen version, fantastical!

Tuesday, July 15, 2008

Ironman


Originally, I had no interest to see this, then all the reviews kept raving, as did all the people I knew who had seen it, so basically I was peer pressured into desiring to watch this film...and it was actually worth it.

Saturday, July 05, 2008

The Painted Veil


Tragic and beautiful, don't ask me how this is possible.

Saturday, June 28, 2008

Wanted


Perfect kind of action movie: hot actors, didn't take itself too seriously, some comic relief and some great graphics, even a decent storyline.

Thursday, June 26, 2008

30 Days of Night

If you like thrillers or scary movies, you will like this, guaranteed.

Monday, June 23, 2008

Get Smart

Thought the humor would be along the lines of "Airplane", and it wasn't, but just because it's not what I expected doesn't mean I didn't like it!

Thursday, June 19, 2008

Before the Devil Knows You're Dead

Fabulous and frustrating the whole way through.
