Go for Zucker! (Alles auf Zucker!) Unrated

This was cute, not memorable though. Pretty funny and clever. However, the constant usage of heart attacks was too much and became anticlimaxic after a while.

American Violet PG-13

I'm not a fan of boring, preachy movies about the black man's plight and racism. This movie didn't really teach me anything new nor did it provide for an interesting story. Pretty predictable, one dimensional characters who basically where their "good guy" "bad guy" roles on their sleeves. Great acting though but it doesn't say much. Rather dissapointing.

The Dark Knight PG-13

I can't believe this is Heath Ledger's last film. Terrible loss...he well deserves the Oscar. Not because he dropped dead from an overdose but because his performance is so damn good. RIP Heath. This was by far the best comic book movie ever...one of the best movies ever. Well developed characters, amazing acting, superb action and Heath Ledger. I cannot begin to tell you how amazing his performance is. Really see the movie for his performance. Every flinch and It did run a little, long but every scene is important, theres nothing to remove. I loved how they added three villians which I didn't expect at all. It was good to see Cillian Murphy and I believe Aaron Eckhart did a much better job than his previous performances. I have no idea how they're going to do the next movie. I just pray the Two Face character isn't the main villian...Aaron was good but not "I can carry an entire movie by myself good" plus I never really thought the character was very strong.

Across the Universe PG-13

This was by far one of the best musicals ever. The best love story ever. The best artistic movie ever. What an amazing concept, Julie Taymor is a genius. To have a musical were the songs progress the storyline and the singing feels natural is phenominal. Bono was amazing, the acting, singing, dancing and overall visual concept combined everything. While I may never know what The Beatles really meant when they wrote those songs but I think Julie's interpretation comes pretty close. Why the hell wasn't this Oscar nominated?
