The Campaign

TURNED OFF!

Five minutes into the movie, and I had that feeling of, "Should I even waste my time watching this?"  I think Will Ferrel has fallen from grace.  He's just not that funny anymore, and he doesn't seem to have progressed as an actor.  That or maybe I've gotten older.  And I never liked Zach Galifanakis.  So by the 30 minute mark, I fell asleep.  I woke up again at the 40 minute mark and decided, "Oh wait, I still have the last couple of episodes of UFC Season 17 to watch.  Woohoo!"  And that was the end of "The Campaign."  Oh it was bad...so so bad.  But UFC was very enjoyable.  I think TV officially bypassed movies as the more entertaining medium about 2 years ago with series like "Game of Thrones," "Breaking Bad," "Walking Dead," etc.

Flight

ACTUALLY STAYED AWAKE

I was going to say, "You can't go wrong with a Denzel movie," but I believe you can go wrong - see "Safe House."  Anyway, this movie was actually enjoyable.  

Brave

FELL ASLEEP

I actually got this movie confused with "Tangled" and quite honestly, if you asked me the difference between the 2 movies, it would be very hard for me to give you an answer.  I think "Tangled" was Rapunzel while "Brave" involved a bow and arrow.  And the only reason I know that is because I just looked at the movie posters.  Woe is me.

Wreck-It Ralph

FELL ASLEEP

I really don't like John C. Reilly's voice.  I think that's what bothered me about the movie.  That and the fact I didn't like the movie.  It was so promising at the very start too.  Oh well.

Prometheus

FELL ASLEEP

You know what, I actually don't remember if I did fall asleep or if I stayed awake.  I would say that I did enjoy the movie.  So far, all these movies of us populating other worlds have been enjoyable to me.  

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2

ACTUALLY STAYED AWAKE

Don't judge me!  The movie was actually enjoyable if you saw the entire series.  That's all I'll say.

Life of Pi

FELL ASLEEP

While I fell asleep through the movie, I did enjoy the movie.  I thought the movie would have had a stronger religious undertone to it, but I didn't see it in the movie.  Definitely Netflix it when it comes out.
