Faster (2010) - 5/10 - IMO this is just a run-of-the-mill action flick. It was decent, I was entertained, but it had so many cliches that I was literally rolling my eyes at times. Billy Bob Tornton is his usualy brilliant self tho, but even he had to utter some of those cliched lines...

speaking of Mr. Thornton:

Sling Blade (1996) - 9/10 - I saw this about 4 months ago, I rented the blu from netflix. Billy Bob Thornton is absolutely brilliant! Written and Directed by Thornton as well. Quite honestly one of the best acting performances I have seen.

Raging Bull (1985) 9.5/10
Wow, a movie I have been waiting to see is surprisingly filled with awkward dialogue that really feels natural. De Niro continues to surprise me with top-notch acting and becoming another person entirely. I don't recommend this for everybody but it is a must see for Scorsese fans.
Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) 8.5/10
Is it better than "Up", maybe. Is it more clever and witty? You bet!

The Wizard (1989) 8/10 pretty good movie, not what i thought it was about but I still enjoyed it,

Alex Rider:Operation Stormbreaker 6/10 I just couldn't get into this movie it seemed like an intimation of Agent Cody Banks & Spy Kids

Deck Dogz 5/10 An Austalian film about three skate boarders, pretty boring nothing special.

Dinoshark (2010) 8/10 for a direct to video release I very much enjoyed this movie one the better low budget creature features.

Tangled (2010) 10/10 - I watched this with the kids this evening. It is everything you've come to expect from a Disney movie.

k, so had to response.

I have actually degraded myself to watch the whole of The Social Network, which I got, just to use Felipe's stunning cover! :)

I was pleasantly surprised. I'll give this wanna--be-8Mile-ish-documentary 7.5/10 for suspense even tho the story sucks. Adequate acting to boot. :D


Robert Rodriguez'-in-Grindhouse-announced Machete

7/10 for action, blood, and lack of story. Nice sexy appearances by Jessica Alba gives it my Thumbsup :thumbsup:

Skyline I watched it yesterday, what could have been a pretty good movie was ruined by awful acting, terrible dialog, lazy writing and bad sound editing. The visual effects are actually pretty good and the action sequences are the only thing that makes it worthwhile. It starts out way too slow and too Cloverfieldish, but it gets better towards the end. 6/10

I think Skyline was a decent movie right up until the last ten minutes when it just ruined it's self. Which is too bad!

My rating when the movie should have ended 8/10

My rating when it did end 4/10

The Walking Dead: Season 1 8/10 It's a good show not amazing like most people are saying but I enjoyed it. I think that 6 episodes is kinda dumb for a pilot series they should have at least went with 13.

Tron (classic) 6/10 was okay but the story wasn't that great and the effects were okay.

Tron Legacy 9/10 Enjoyed this movie very much. Great effects.

Narnia 3 9/10 still just as good as the other IMO and I enjoyed it a lot.

Country Strong 8/10 Better movie than I thought it would be. It had a good story.

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows part 1 8/10 It was good but i didn't enjoy it was much as i thought I would.

Unstoppable Entertaining, but I'm getting kinda annoyed by Denzel Washington playing the same role in every movie lately. 7.5/10

The Next Three Days Awesome thriller starring Russell Crowe, you have to watch this! 9.5/10
