    Me too. Websense, darn it!

    Marley & Me = 6/10

    I'm a sucker for dog movies but this movie was okay...I thought the dog was better than the main characters. I did shed some tears in the final scene. :(

    Waiting = 5/10

    What a dumb movie... Even though Ryan Reynolds is freakin' hot but he doesn't do comedy very well... I like Justin Long...he is decent.

    saw night at the museum 2 last night

    i would give it a a 6/10 I was looking forward to this movie i had seen the first one a few months back when it aired on HBO and I was pleasantly surprised by it.

    If you have kids its def a dvd rent, but if were hoping to take them around now when maybe some of the crowds are going to other new family movies i would wait


    there was one real big thing that bug the hell out of me during the movie

    in the first movie there were other guards, old guys who wanted to steal the tablet because it made them feel young again, now here we are at the worlds largest museum and there is not a single guard on duty at night when all this mayhem is going on, it was just ben stiller's character who wasnt even a legit guard in this movie. So all of our countries precious history is not being guarded at all at night? That doesnt seem right. Also a lot of the characters are running around outside at night and no one says a single thing whatsoever, there are no other people, no police no security or anything. I think someone would notice a gigantic abe lincoln walking from the lincoln memorial to one of the museums. At least in the first one they had a newsreport about weird tracks in the snow in central park when they had a chase scene outside. Even at the end when they made it back to the NY museum there was nothing said about the smithsonian when parts of it was just completely destroyed.

    It just bothered me, the first movie did a better job at not having huge plot holes like that.

    Things come to life in a museum. I'm not sure they were going for realism ;)

    Doesn't MOST of the movie happen in the WEE hours of the night? :eek: I wouldn't notice it, whether it were Houston, Katy, NY City, or Washington DC... I'd be DEAD asleep.

    Anyway, you don't have a problem with LIVING paintings and works of art, I guess, huh? ;)

    I give NOTM 8 out of 10... 'cuz I fell asleep... my daughters reminded me of it the entire night after we saw it ... :(

    Don't worry, that link doesn't take you anywhere. Cracked says the page no longer exists.

    Read my instruction below the link. ClutchFan's filter replaces the end of bs in the link with four asterisks so it is going to report a dead link. Replace those asterisks with the correct letters to go to the address.

    Saw Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist the other day. Excellent movie. I liken it a lot to Garden State, in that it's a romantic comedy that doesn't follow cheesy romantic comedy conventions. The story and characters all feel genuine. Soundtrack is really good too.

    4/5

    Finally saw Transformers 2 yesterday.

    3/10.

    Let me summarize the movie for you. No spoiler tags needed: Corny dialogue that might have been originally written for a porno + the lamest of plots + numerous gratuitous shots involving Megan Fox + nonstop clanging metal and explosions. The only way to enjoy this movie is to turn off your brain before walking into the movie theater.

    Watched Quantum of Solace last night.

    Solid. More action oriented than Casino Royale, but that doesn't make it a better movie. CR is still tops. But overall it was enjoyable.

    Past month I saw:

    Pursuit of Happiness: 9/10 - Great movie - Kind of sad to find out that Chris wasn't really the great father he seemed to be.
    Like Mike 2: 3/10 - What the hell was that?
    Marley and Me: 6.5/10 - Okay, I guess. Watchable, but it tended to get boring.
    Pelham 123: 8.5/10 - Very solid - loved John T.'s character
    Transformer 2 7/10 - Solid.

    What's up with, "Do you love me? Why don't you say that you love me?" The most recent movies (Pelham + Transformer) decide to add that in there.

    Transformers 2 - 7/10
    I liked it a lot more than the first one. Imo, the final scene of the first scene was long and eventless, I enjoyed this one much more

    Juno - 3.1/10
    What a piece of crap movie. How the Hell was this nominated for Academy Awards? I did not find a single character likable, and the music throughout made me want to blow my brains out, not to mention the incredibly boring and predictable plot.

    Star Trek - 9/10 Great movie, really captures the "Star-Trek" spirit, if there is one

    Taking of Pelham 123 - 6/10 and only cause Travolta/Denzel are in it, no real plot, weak ending

    Constant Gardener - 1/10, Got half-way through and nearly went into a coma

    Gladiator(again) - 9/10, Good, good movie

    Did anyone else notice the(fairly gratuitous) stereotypes that were the twin robot cars. I don't know if they thought they could get away with it because they were cars, but they had tiny heads with huge ears and mouths and large gold teeth while speaking with very stereotypical language. It really stood out to me anyway.

    It didn't really bother me from a stereotype standpoint, they were just really ****ing annoying.
