    Paranormal Activity - finally saw it a few days ago. I was surprised at how many people were in the Audience for it. I liked it all but the last scene. I'll have to go back through and see what other people here thought about it.

    True Romance - 8.5/10.


    Awesome movie made awesome by a great cast. Gary Oldman is the most underrated actor ever. Written by Tarantino and directed by Tony Scott. Featuring the likes of Dennis Hopper, Christopher Walken (the scene featuring the two of them is one of the greatest in Cinematic history). Also has Brad Pitt playing a stoner roommate and James Gandolfini as (surprise) a mafioso tough-guy.

    That being said, it really isn't as dialog intensive as Reservoir Dogs, and certainly doesn't have the story of Pulp Fiction. The performances really make the movie. Christian Slater used to be a pretty good actor.

    Law Abiding Citizen - 9/10 - Great movie, kept me interested entire time and never a dull moment. Not your typical Law and Police movie at all..

    2012 - 6/10 Pretty fake and boring at times. Didn't really like it.

    Just saw The Tailor of Panama which was a 4/10 and was a waste of my time.

    I also saw the new Star Trek and I liked it a lot.

    Just saw "Amelia." Genuinely informative about flight communication and navigation procedures, much more so than about any possible infidelity or lesbianism on Earhart's part. ("You're the only woman I know who points out other attractive women.") Hilary Swank provides a sincere public good playing alot of empowering and untraditional female roles, but she is one dull broad.

    The Blind Side 8/10

    Not that much football action in this movie, mostly character development. Sandra Bullock's Southern accent was annoying at the beginning of the movie but you get used to it after a while. Good, heartfelt, and inspiring movie with a Christian theme to it, which I wasn't aware of going in.

    Sex Drive [Director's Cut] (84%) - I had seen this as a suggested movie on Netflix streaming but kept ignoring it because A) I had never heard of it before, and B) it sounded so cliche.

    Then last night I was informed that a friend of mine, who I have great respect for when it comes to judging movies, liked the movie quite a bit. So...I gave it a shot. As it turns out, I was thoroughly amused and although the plot was predictable at its core, there were plenty of crazy, unexpected events going on throughout.

    It wasn't a great movie...and maybe my score is a little too high, but considering my expectations I was really about as pleased as I could have been. I also loved the cameos by Seth Green and this guy.

    In short, it's recommended. At a glance it looks pretty much on par with all the crappy National Lampoon's straight to DVD bull**** and American Pie spin offs, but it certainly is not.

    2012 - 7/10 great effects, If you are just watching to see destruction and to see what it would be like if the world actually ended, this would be a great movie, don't be too picky about acting and storyline, I didn't see anything wrong with it but alot of people are really picky.

    Drag me to Hell - 8/10, pretty uniqure horror movie, there was about 10 really jumpy moments, kinda comical too.

    Inglourias bastards - 9/10, awesome flick!!

    I actually liked this movie too.

    Notorious 6/10. It was OK but there was something that was just not right when it came to the whole Tupac thing.

    I watched this over the last weekend, the one i watched had a different ending than the theatre, but ive seen that ending as well, all i can say about the movie is that i wish i wouldnt have watched it. I didnt pay anything for it, watched it at home, but still wish i wouldnt have, it was a complete waste of time. I watched Zombieland right before it and would have much rather watched that twice in a row than watch Paranormal Activity.

    I think the actors who portrayed Puff and BIG were good in their roles. The rest was a mess. I thought it was just above better than average.

    We Own the Night

    Solid drama. Some graphic violence and disturbing images. Nice tension throughout. Although it almost felt like something was missing. Performances were ok, if not somewhat forgettable. And the editing felt awkward at times. Couldn't help but think of Dark Knight when watching this...I think that movie will ruin all crime dramas for me now. Still a good movie though.

    7/10

    Funny People

    7/10

    I don't know I just think the movie lasted a little more than it needed to, I think they used
    the dick/balls and weird talking (mostly Adam Sandler) jokes
    a little too much. However, it had some moments that had me crying (laughter). Leslie Mann is smoking hot, would totally hit. Loved the guest appearances also.

    No problem man, glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thanks to Lynda Carter I've always been a WW fan and the DTV didn't let me down.
