So Mila Kunis is hot.  And Justin Timberlake is funny.  However, I think JT tried too hard to be funny in the movie, like he does with his SNL skits.  I thought the movie was very cliche and you could predict the ending without having even watched a preview.  It did have it's funny moments, so this is one of those movies that you wait to Netflix.  I don't recommend you watch it with a "fwb" though because then you might have to have a conversation that you don't want to have.

So there was a lot of hype around this movie, and I'm a big fan of JJ Abrams and Spielberg, so I also had some high expectations for the movie.  Overall, the movie wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either.  I just think this genre is overdone.  The best parts of the movie were the fat kid who was funny and Elle Fanning, who is just as good as her sister Dakota Fanning.  I think you can save your money and wait for the BluRay.  There wasn't anything "special" that warrants you paying $10 to watch it in the theater.

After watching a lot of crap movies, I decided to watch the 2011 Oscar winner.  I initially didn't want to watch it because I thought it'd be like typical Oscar winners where it's slow and no one appreciates it but old white men like Woody Allen.  Anyhow, I was very pleasantly surprised.  The movie was very enjoyable; I stayed awake the whole time, and it was funny too.  Definitely recommend this movie!

Man, I hate Seth Rogen movies.  What's worse than Seth Rogen... Cameron Diaz.  I didn't even know she was in the movie.  As soon as she appeared, I said to myself, "God damn it, there goes the movie."  And sure enough, she straight ruined the movie.  The movie was somewhat decent up till she came onscreen.  After that, it did a U-turn and I just went zzzzzzz.

Don't misunderstand here - just because I didn't fall asleep doesn't mean the movie was good.  This movie should have been made like 5 years ago.  I love Ben Stiller movies and the first 2 or 3 were actually very funny and enjoyable.  However, this one was NOT funny anymore.  And even eye candy Jessica Alba didn't help how bad this movie was.

I usually enjoy Jack Black movies, and this one started off somewhat funny.  Then it just went gradually downhill until it just wasn't enjoyable anymore, and I just wanted to turn the movie off.

You would think that putting 2 hot chicks in the same movie - Minka Kelly and Leighton Meester would equal good movie, but you'd be sadly mistaken.  This movie was just terrible.  It's about 2 college chicks roomming together and one becomes a little too obsessed with the other one.  Just terrible.  Stay away.

I think everyone has high expectations for this movie since the first one is such a classic.  Let me just tell you now - this one lived up to the hype.  It was just as crazy, if not crazier, than the first one.  Some may like the first one more; some may like this one more.  In the end, it didn't disappoint.  Highly recommended if you watched the first one.

Oh man, if I only could get back 90 minutes of my life.  It took me 5 minutes to even remember the name of this movie.  Then I was about to Google "movie about aliens invading Earth" but realized that would have returned too many results.  Then it hit me - the black dude from Scrubs was in it.  Yeah, that's how "B movie" this was.  Shoot me in the face for watching it!

Seriously?  Did I seriously watch this movie?  At least "Anaconda" and "Snakes on a Plane" were entertaining.  I fell asleep at the 15 minute mark.  Then decided to watch the rest of it the next day.  Well, when I say "watch," I mean I had it playing but doing something else.  I wasn't stupid enough to give it my undivided attention.  Lastly, I don't know who I hate more - Tyrese or Jerry O'Connell.  I mean if there was a movie starring those 2 actors, I would have to shoot myself.

Good movie.  Definitely better than "Buried."  I love movies that make you think what you would do in that situation.  However, I could have done without the bloody scenes.

I don't care how inaccurate this movie was, I loved it.  I love all of these Walt Disney feel-good sports related movies like "Rudy," "Blind Side," etc.  I wasn't alive when Secretariat won the triple crown and can only imagine what it was like to have watched it live.  You know how you can tell a movie is good?  When you start researching online after the movie is over if the movie was accurate or not.  Although it wasn't entirely accurate, the movie was still very enjoyable and I highly recommend it.

My dad would have loved this movie.  Why?  It's because it's like a geriatric action movie.  Every star was over the age of 40 in this flick.  I mean, all they needed to do was replace Mary-Louise Parker with Ashley Judd, and it would have been like a senior citizen's reunion.  I didn't like how the movie started since it didn't really set up any background.  After an hour of unbelievable action (you know, bullets going through the heroes), I just zoned out and didn't really care after that.  If you liked watching these stars for 20 years, then you should love this movie.  Else, I recommend you just pass.

I enjoyed this Jackie Chan movie.  It's classic Jackie with the over the top stunts that he does himself.  I watched it dubbed and subtitled and found it funny that they didn't match up.  I wish I had watched it in its original Chinese dubbing and just subtitled.  Anyhow, if you're a Jackie fan, you should enjoy this movie.

I was looking forward to this movie since it was a Robert Rodriguez movie and Jessica Alba was in it.  Immediately when I started the movie, it was "oh oh" because I realized the director made the movie like a 70's style movie with the old school graphics and fake blood splatters.  I also didn't have subtitles for the movie, so I didn't know what was going on when they were speaking Spanish.  And even Jessica Alba didn't add anything to the movie.  Therefore, by the 1:10 mark, I had enough of the movie and just skipped through the rest of it.

This movie was one of those quirky comedies where the dialogue is what makes the movie funny.  I thought it started out great.  John C. Reilly and Jonah Hill were very funny, and I thought Marisa Tomei was perfectly cast.  Then by the one hour mark, things started to get awkward and weird.  It just got uncomfortable to watch, so I just zoned out.

I think you all know what this movie is about already, so I won't go too much into the plot.  I was looking forward to this movie until I realized it was nearly 2 and a half hours long.  That's just too long for a 'chick flick.'  However, the movie was great until she flew to India.  For some reason, after that, it was just too much for me, and I decided to zone it out.  The movie was just becoming too indulgent and melodramatic.  Seriously, if you watch this movie, stop it at the 1:10 mark, and you'll think it's a great movie.  I did love Julia Roberts in the role though.

This is an older movie from 2007.  It's another scary Halloween based movie.  However, it was probably one of the scariest movies I've seen in a while, and definitely one of the best Halloween movies.  The movie is about 4 separate plots that is interwoven and converge at the end.  You should watch this in the dark, on a big screen, with a surround sound system.  The first 15 minutes is the best part of the movie, but the rest is also very enjoyable.  Recommended!

I didn't like this Shrek installment.  It felt like it should have been a TV or direct-to-video movie.  The plot is basically Shrek missing his single ogre days, runs into Rumplestiltskin and makes a wish where he could go back in time.  The movie didn't really progress Shrek's life.  It was a "what-if" movie.  The movie was still slightly funny if you're a Shrek fan, but if you don't watch it, you're not missing out on much.

I've never seen the anime, but it had to have been better than this.  Man, this movie was just awful.  I fell alseep 15 minutes in, woke up at 30 minutes, and fell asleep again.  I eventually woke up at 50 minutes and decided it wasn't even worth taking a nap to.  Stay away from this one!

This movie reminded me of "In Bruges" where the movie is set in Europe, and it's basically a drama/thriller.  Clooney plays a guy who is hired to make a gun for an assassin.  Sure, it sounds interesting, but it's a very slow movie with minor action here and there, just like "In Bruges."  If the movie didn't star Clooney, it definitely would have flopped.

I've been a fan of this series for a while now, and this one didn't disappoint.  I didn't watch it in 3D, and I'm sure it would have made it a little better, but overall, I still enjoyed the movie in 2D form.  This one is the 4th installment; it continues where the last one left off, where the entire world has been infected with zombies except for a few survivors.  Also, it's been 8 years since the first one, but Milla Jovovich still looks hot.  And even Ali Larter looked good too.  Just a mindless fun 90 minutes.  I recommend if you've watched the entire series like I have.
