| Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen - PG-13 | Transformers 2 is almost a mirror image of the first one, except it feels a bit more dragged out and its not as funny. All in all its a good mindless popcorn flick. | September 6, 2009 | N/A | |||
| Brüno (Bruno) - R |
Every few years a film comes out that is truly revolutionary for its genre. In 2006 I believe Borat did that for comedy, raising the bar for every comedy following.heard Sacha Baron was bringing his third and final character from "Da Ali G Show" Bruno to the big screen. I was very excited.Going into the theater I had the mindset of "could it be better than Borat?" knowing either way I would not be let down. The film starts off and even manages to make the Universal slogan comical, good start. A brief history of Bruno opens the movie, and it has a few funny moments. From there it gradually gets funnier but more so outrageous. Like in Borat there are scenes that are so disgusting that you ask "why am I laughing!?" but you cannot stop laughing. The first leg of the movie is the best, some scenes following did seem to drag on and jokes were killed. Certain scenes were copied and pasted directly from "Da Ali G Show" which is fine if you are not familiar with the material. Bruno relied heavily on scripting and shock value instead of dialog. Bruno may have not been on par with Borat, but he never has been. The movie met all my expectations and I have not laughed harder in a movie since Borat, and considering comedy is nearly a dead genre I highly recommend it. |

| Star Trek - PG-13 | I came out of the theater with my jaw dropped, Star Trek has to be the most epic sci fi film since the original Star Wars. | September 6, 2009 | N/A | |||

| Moon - R |
Moon is nothing that I envisioned it to be, it was actually better. From the trailer I thought it was going to be a somewhat creepy sci fi film, it ended up being a very creative and brilliant sci fi film.
The story was very original, thought provoking and never made me lose interest. I have heard it's really comparable to 2001 but I have yet to see that :x "Sam Bell is on the moon harvesting Helium three (H3) and sending it back to Earth for energy. He has two weeks left on his contract then he returns to Earth, thats when things get weird. Sam starts hallucinating and getting sick, then one of the mining units stall and he goes to inspect it" I will not go into any further detail because the less you know of the story the better! Just be prepared for a wild ride of twists and turns on astronomical proportions. It was so outstanding that I wish it had been longer, but to tell such an astonishing story in such little time is quite a feat. One thing I found really fabulous is that it was able to mind fuck me, which only occurs once in a blue....moon ;) This is the first time I have seen Sam Rockwell in action, I was very stoked to see his performance because I have heard great things about him. His performance in this film is amazing, I would even say Oscar worthy. The scenes were he is communicating with himself were some of the coolest in recent memory. GERTY was also awesome, loved the emotion screen, and the fact that it was voiced by Spacey. The visuals were really extraordinary, I have never been to the moon but I imagine that is what it looks like. I was very pleased that there was no audio when Sam was out of his ship walking around, plus one for realism! There must be something in the blood because Duncan Jones (son of David Bowie) crafted one of the best sci fi films in recent memory, and one of the best movies of the year. |

| Taken - PG-13 | A smart, well acted, balls to the wall action film. This is what the genre needed, Liam Neeson has proved he can do anything! | July 20, 2009 | N/A | |||
| Final Destination - R | The story was pretty interesting, even if it was executed poorly. The characters were pretty bland, with the exception of Billy. The kills were really cool and unique, but when no one was getting killed it dragged. | July 20, 2009 | N/A | |||
| Insomnia - R |
Insomnia is one of those unusual remakes because it's actually good. Al Pacino plays veteran detective Will Domer he is sent to Nightmute, Alaska with his partner to investigate a savage murder. Things progressively get worse as we find out the sun never sets, voiding Pacino of sleep in addition to slowly losing his mind. Al Pacino never lets me down, and having Robin Williams as the villain drives this one of the best crime dramas I have seen. |

| Public Enemies - R | A decent mob film, Depp carried the film and when he was not on screen you could feel it, the film had a few decent shoot outs but nothing to compare with HEAT :( | July 4, 2009 | N/A | |||
| The Hangover - R | Its not on the same level as 40 Yr old Virgin or Superbad, but its still a good comedy in its own right and full of some really good laughs. | July 4, 2009 | N/A | |||
