The Men Who Stare at Goats

I found myself with a constant smile while watching the first half of this movie. Clooney was great! Something happens though and everything just stops and we're left with them trying to wrap up everything and it doesn't work.

[3/5]

Master and Commander

There's no explanation as to why I haven't seen this until now.

Definitely an epic movie. Don't be like me. Watch this now!

[5/5]

Legion

So, watching this movie, all I could think of was, why is the guy from Friday Night Lights the movie in love with the girl from Friday Night Lights the tv show?!?

This movie seemed like it would be a ho-hum movie with some kick ass action in it. Boy was I wrong, there was no kick ass action. I mean there was some great opportunities for human on crazy ice cream man fighting, but they pretty much just shoot and kill. Left a lot to be desired, but I still liked it.

Robin Hood (2010)

A very interesting take on the Robin Hood story. Ridley Scott can direct the hell out of an action movie! A great story, great acting, great score, I just didn't love it for some reason. I can't picture myself watching it over and over, and that's what really gets the 5 star rating from me. I am gonna go ahead and do this though:
[4.5/5]

That's right. Point ratings!!!

Daybreakers

What a great action movie, with a nice look at the vampire world from the opposite of the norm. Just a really fun movie with some great action throughout.

Sam Neill needs to play evil in every movie out there!

[4/5]

Heist

Caught this one on netflix instant in HD. Trying to catch up on my Mamet films since Brian is such a fan. Really liked this one even though Brian says its his least favorite Mamet.

I'm pretty much a sucker for a good, robbery, bank job, schemer ("they're schemers") type flick and this falls right into my category. Gene Hackman and Sam Rockwell are fun to watch against each other.

[4/5]

Shrek Forever After (non 3d)

Thank god I didn't pay for this, and thank god I didn't see it in 3D. I mostly hate watching anything 3d more than 30 minutes due to the migraine they cause me. (Was worth it for Avatar though)

I actually liked the first two Shrek movies. Never watched the 3rd, but this one was just so blah. I hope this "final chapter" really is.
