Holy crap, this movie was aweful. Sure, the action sequences were good, but it was a bit too over the top at times. It was like a Jason Stratham movie with Matrix CGI effects... you know, with the slow motion bullets and such. The problem with the movie was that they cast a horrible lead actor. They should have gotten Shia LeBouf from "Transformers." I just didn't believe this guy. And Morgan Freeman...seriously?!? Of course the only reason you should watch the movie is because of Angelina Jolie, and even then, I think her ability to carry a movie has long past. Sorry, I fell asleep through both Tomb Raiders. One of them, 15 minutes in, and I never woke up until the end. Sure enough with this movie, after I fell asleep for the first time, I was so out of it, I kept going in and out of sleep, that by the 1:30 mark, I gave up and didn't even bother to watch the rest of the movie. So horrible.

What a cute, cute movie. Clearly shows that Pixar dominates Dreamworks in animation movies. Apparently, every Pixar movie has a moral to the story. This one, in the words of Shara Kim Ma, "Don't be lazy and fat." Trueph!

Quantum of Solace
Point I Fell Asleep: ACTUALLY STAYED AWAKE
Location: Theater
Time I Started Movie: Primetime

Wow...this movie reminded me of when I saw "Mission Impossible" in the theaters. I was so confused 15 minutes into the movie that my brain shut off, and I just enjoyed all the action. However, this time, I really didn't enjoy the action that much. It was so cliche with the car chase scene, the chase on foot, the water chase, and even the airplane chase. Heck, where's the train chase scene? Or maybe there was one, but I forgot. I think the problem was that it had been so long since I had seen the first one, and of course you know I fell asleep through it, that I was confused right off the bat. I can't even recall what his dead girlfriend looks like. Maybe if I had rewatched the first one before I went to see this one, I would have understood what was going on. Then again, since I have no recollection of the first one, why would I want to waste another 2 hours on it? Save your $10 people. Wait for the DVD so you can rent them both at the same time.

So the first 15 minutes was HILARIOUS. Then the next hour and a half was just a bad action movie with little laughs. Then it redeemed itself at the end with the credits. If you don't know by now, Tom Cruise makes a cameo in the movie, and honestly, he steals the show. Without him, it'd be just another bad and unfunny Ben Stiller movie. Rent but don't own this one.

Oh man, this movie was NOT funny. I don't think I laughed at any point through the entire movie. I may have smirked a couple of times, but that's it. Steve Carrell really needs to stick to "The Office." The only thing that kept me interested was seeing what coat Anne Hathaway was going to wear next. She was wearing some killer Burberry and Chanel coats. Does this make me gay? I don't care. I'd rather be gay than have to watch this movie. This was worse than a chick flick.

I realized before I watched this movie that I was the last person on Earth who hasn't seen this movie. But the funny thing is, no one has actually said the movie was any good. And quite frankly, the movie wasn't that funny nor was it any good. You sorta have to watch it because everyone else has seen it, but trust me, it's not that enjoyable. Clearly, Pixar movies are better than Dreamworks movies.

So I love the annual Will Smith movies. I enjoyed "I am Legend," "ID4," "Bad Boys" 1 and 2, etc. If you were living under a rock 6-9 months ago, then you'll know that this movie is about a superhero who instead of saving people, is a drunk and causes more harm than good. That was the premise of the movie anyway. I don't want to spoil the rest of the movie, but it sure wasn't what I expected. It started out cool and then went on a detour about half way into the movie, and I just wasn't a fan of the 2nd half. It's still worth renting, but I certainly wouldn't own it. Enjoy.
