This sounds a lot better than I originally imagined.
I Think I Love My Wife I Think I Love My Wife R 3.0 Stars
Somewhat original storytelling style, but loses points for some of the jokes falling flat (like the elevator scenes) and for the overall predictability.
The Crow The Crow R 3.5 Stars
Dark,fun ride.
The Painted Veil The Painted Veil PG-13 3.5 Stars
Quality production, the story just happens to be a little too uneventful and chick-flicky for my taste.
Darkman Darkman R 2.5 Stars
I love revenge flicks, but this was just too cheesy for my taste. (Though perhaps comparing Raimi movies to the likes of The Crow isn't very fair...)

The only thing better than revenge is elaborately planned revenge... I love movies that make me root for a bad guy.

    I wasn't the least bit interested in this one...not a fan of Sandler playing serious roles, I prefer the comedy. HOWEVER, I was pleasantly surprised by this movie and his acting ability. Sandler plays an individual who loses his entire family in 9/11 and it drastically affects his mental health...PTSD and schizophrenia-like symptoms. Some parts were diffcult to watch because they are gut wrenching and just plain sad. Not a "feel good" movie...but an accurate portrayal of how devastating loss can affect the psyche in horrible ways.

    Brilliant!! In the same league as Annie Hall...dysfunctional families, neuroses, and existential crises...right up my alley. I wish Woody Allen still made movies like this. Its a story about the relationship between three sisters and the madness that comes with them.

    I had fun watching this movie! The plot isn't rivoting or a new idea on a fairy tale, but the story and visuals catch your attention. If you are looking for plot twists and strong character development, this is not for you! I liked it because it took me away for two hours to a land full of witches, prince charming, and magic. The best character in my opinion is Robert Di Niro...I won't spoil it for you, but check it out forsure.

    I am so excited for this movie to be released! Will Smith plays a washed-up superhero who has taken liking to booze and debauchery...brilliant! I think this is another angle of the whole superhero flix. I hope my high expectations are not disappointed...

    I CAN'T believe they are going to defile this classic by remaking it with Zac Efron!!! What a sad, sad day...
    Hey, you should really NOT see this! I plan on boycotting this movie and removing anyone from my friend's list who opening chooses to watch it.

    I really enjoyed this movie! Its a story about the dysfunctional relationship between a daughter and her father...he was recently discharged from the psychiatric hospital after three years of inpatient treatment...and he is not "cured" by any means. Douglas plays the mentally ill father who is obsessed with finding buried treasure...and by the way, he plays a very realistic person with mental illness. Check it out! Funny, enduring, and heart warming...but not in the sappy kinda way.

    I'm having a hard time reviewing this one. In theory, I should love this movie...it has all the right elements to equal funny. However, this movie tends to drag on too long and is a tad too campy for me...yes, campy, which normally love. I don't know...there's just something about it that wasn't that great. Maybe someone else can pin this down for me...help me with this review. This is quite possibly the worst review ever. So I'm nor sure if I'm recommending this movie or not...lol. If you're not confused after reading this, I now I am.
    Hey, you should really see this! Maybe...I can't decide if you should or shouldn't actually. I'm comfused. I think I had too high of expectations based on other Apatow/"frat pack" movies.

    I will be adding this one to "my dysfunctional family favorites" list. A great movie about a family broken apart from divorce and their stuggle to carve out thier own role within the fractured family. A narcissistic father who claims to be a wonderful writer, but now a professor...a mother coming into her own much later in life, she is an acclaimed writer and it pisses off the father...an older son who "writes his own music," worships his father and his advice, and is trying to find a girldfriend...a younger son who plays tennis, swears too much, and drinks beer. This movie has a Wes Anderson sensibility (he was involved in the movie, I think producer) with a character driven script and plot line...brilliantly bleek and depressing.

    Wow..what a breath of fresh air. This movie was one of the better one's I have seen in awhile. Ellen Page is truly a shining star. This movie was not only hilarious, but touching as well. I totally recommend this movie to everyone.

    Despite what you may or may not heard about this movie, it was really good in my humble opinion...however, I say that with several disclaimers. 1): if you did not like Castaway because it was "slow" and did not have enought dialogue, this is NOT for you, 2): if you have preconceived ideas about what "monster" movies should be i.e. gore, excitement, and over the top antics, this is NOT for you, and 3): if you cannot appreciate subtle fear and thinking beyond what you see, this is NOT for you. So, if you meet any of the above criteria, don't bother...for the rest of you, ENJOY!

    I adore this movie! It is soo cute. it is an updated version of a traditional fairy tale with evil queens, princesses, and prince charming. It took me back to my childhood and my love of princess stories...even if you're dripping with machismo, I think you could really enjoy this movie. Plus, it will earn you bonus points with the ladies!

    Between the cast, director, and track record of previous movie chemistry (see: The Life Aquatic...and The Royal Tenenbaums), this is destined to be great. A story about three brother trying to come to terms with their family issues...it is set on a train traveling through India filled with local characters. Super funny and offbeat...most people would not find the humor in this movie due to it being kinda weird. If you're a fan of Wes Anderson...well, you probably already saw this movie then.
    Hey, you should really see this! I do not recommend this movie for people who lack an off-beat sense of humor...
