The Squid and the Whale The Squid and the Whale R 2.5 Stars
Though awkwardly funny at times, I was too distracted (and disgusted) by the conceit of the characters to care about anything going on in this movie. I am sick to death of irony and sarcasm, is there no romanticism left in "indie" films?
2001: A Space Odyssey 2001: A Space Odyssey G 4.0 Stars
Visually and technically near perfection. My only problem is that unlike when watching some of Kubrick's other films such as The Shining and Clockwork Orange, where I could see aspects of myself in the characters, there was nothing here for me to really connect with. The most human thing in the movie is a narcissistic computer. It is a great spectacle, with visual ties to many of his other films, but regardless of all of the symbolism, it didn't inspire any emotion positive or negative in me. I look forward to reevaluating it in the future.
The Island The Island PG-13 2.0 Stars
I usually find it fairly easy to suspend disbelief when watching scifi and fantasy films, but this movie is so ridiculous that I was made constantly aware that I was watching a (bad) movie. Never again will I willingly watch a Michael Bay movie. I give it 2 stars because of the acting talent involved, wasted as it was.
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (Hellboy 2) Hellboy II: The Golden Army (Hellboy 2) PG-13 5.0 Stars
I will be back in theaters to see this as many times as possible. It has more action than the first Hellboy, more fairy tale elements than Pan's Labyrinth, and more personality than those two films combined. I had a smile plastered on my face throughout.
Hot Fuzz Hot Fuzz R 4.0 Stars
Not as funny as Shaun of the Dead, but overall just as entertaining. Very well written and well acted by most.
The Fountain The Fountain PG-13 5.0 Stars
The Fountain is a heart rending tale of eternal romance. It's visually awesome, supremely well acted, superbly edited, and with a haunting score. This film is a modern classic and Darren Aronofsky's best film so far.
