I keep thinking I need to post some reviews on movies I’ve been watching … but I’m lazy so here are my sound bites:
- Despicable Me is hilarious, definitely a lot of fun for the whole family.
- Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is a trip. I was half way through the film before I finally accepted that it wasn’t some sort of bizarre day dream he was having but the actual world he inhabited. Definitely some fun fight scenes, good jokes, and a quirky movie.
- Inception was predictable I thought. Am I the only one that thought there is a list of movies that have come out before with similar story lines? I knew ten minutes into it how it would end – and was right. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed the movie and wouldn’t avoid seeing it again, but I’m not quite sure why people were freaking out about it. Maybe I watch too much science fiction.
- 2012. Meh. It was okay, nothing new, kind of hard to suspend my disbelief.
- Devil was gooood. I enjoyed it a LOT more than I thought I would. M. Night Shyamalan IS a good story teller – he just needs other people to direct his scripts!
- The Other Guys is FUN. I think my favorite moment was Samuel L Jackson and The Rock jumping off the building; ‘Are you thinking what I’m thinking?’ ‘Aim for the bushes!’ Awesome.
- The A-Team was great. Still reeling from the shock of seeing the van get wrecked in the opening of the film. I need to see it again.
- Salt. Yup. It’s good.
- Alice in Wonderland wasn’t as good as I had hoped it would be – I thought the performances weren’t up to the energy of the film. I loved the visuals, however.
- Step Up 3. Oh yeah, I watched it. Some parts twice. Loved seeing Twitch and the other ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ people getting movie roles!
