Sin City


Yeah, yeah... this isn't exactly a new movie, nor is it really news that this movie fucking kicks major ass, and is one of (if not THE) best comic book movies of all time. But I finally obtained a copy for my collection (I don't know why it took me so long) and watched it again last night and again I'm in fucking awe of this movie. I can't wait for the sequel!!

Down In The Valley


Because of the type of movie this is, you pretty much know how it's going to play out right from the start, but that doesn't make the journey any less haunting. Edward Norton is one of the most talented actors in Hollywood, and proves his acting chops yet again with a sympathetic portrayal of Harlan, a lost urban cowboy who is looking for love in all the wrong places. Actually, all the actors in this movie do a stellar job. Everything from the direction to the soundtrack hits all the right notes... this is a true gem of a movie and I'm honored to have seen it.

Grandma's Boy



File under: great stoner movies with nerdy video game humor.

The Break Up


Could it be? Could it possibly be? A romantic comedy with huge stars (actually way more than you'd think - the cameos are spectacular!) that is ACTUALLY FUNNY AND TRUE TO LIFE!?

Actually, it's because it's so true to life that makes it so funny. That first argument in the beginning of the movie (the "break-up" if you will) was so hilarious because it shows exactly how men and women argue, and they'll never really 'get' each other. The lemon thing nailed it. I might have to own this movie just because it is the exception, not the rule, when it comes to this genre.

Mission Impossible 3


I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY HATE Tom Cruise. With that being said, this movie wasn't half bad. In fact it wouldn't be half bad at all if it hadn't been Tom Cruise. Damn you Xenu. Damn you straight to hell.

In the Blue


Yeeeeah... too busy staring at this to notice if the movie had an actual plot. But my best guess would be no.

Red Eye


Wow... that was so NOT scary. Even with Cillian Murphy, who is naturally creepy as fuck.

Suicide Kings


I'd seen this movie before, but I'd really forgotten how good it was. A cast full of talented young actors (most of whom are sorely under used) and Christopher Walken at his Christopher Walken best. And the ending kicks all sorts of ass.

Garfield: Tale of Two Kitties


I really enjoyed this movie. Then again... I was really, really baked.
