My Favorite Movies

This is one of the best movies I've ever had the pleasure of seeing. There's so much to say about it. It's both emotionally and intellectually stimulating--the love story between Sayuri and the Chairman, and the wonderfully interesting culture presented. And, while it doesn't follow completely with the book, I love it whole-heartedly.

This is amazing. It's so interesting to see Marie Antionette as human, rather than seeing her as some insanely selfish and cruel queen. It makes me want to read the book that spawned the movie.

I'll be honest, I watched the movie before I read the books. I liked the movie well enough the first time I saw it, but wasn't really impressed. Then, I read the books and fell in love. I have many gripes that I won't address; I'll just say that the book is more complete and enjoyable than the movie. Though I do think casting was done wonderfully--especially with Alan Rickman as Snape.

I like this one a little bit more than the others in the series because it has more of my favorite character, Ginny Weasley.

I enjoyed the introduction of Sirius Black and thought Gary Oldman was wonderful as him. I wasn't pleased with how they handled the Malfoy scene--the one where Hermione is supposed to slap Malfoy, rather than punch him--but, overall, it was a good one to watch.

I loved this movie--and the book, actually. I'm conflicted as to whether or not I'm happier about the book version or the movie version. One of the scenes I'm most conflicted about is the gillyweed scene. I'm not sure if I like Neville giving it to him (as he does in the movie) or Dobby. They both have a certain charm. Though I will say one thing I didn't like about the movie was the glossing over of the Quidditch World Cup and the changing of the seating arrangements. I also think casting did well this one too.

If I wasn't a fan of the books, I'd have absolutely loved this because I would have no idea just how much was left out or changed completely. The only bright spots for me were Evanna Lynch's performance as Luna Lovegood and Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley) having more lines and screen time than she has in any of the previous films (including Chamber of Secrets).

I love this movie! It's incredibly campy, but the campiness just adds to it..It's also the genesis of the BtVS tv series, so it must be loved for that alone...

I was never a big fan of the Superman comics, and most of the tv series involving Superman were before my time (excepting Lois and Clark and, of course, Smallville), but I really enjoyed watching this...

As with most movies based on comics (graphic novels, for the picky) and/or books, it's easier if you just consider the film a different universe than the original. As an alternate universe to the comics, I enjoyed watching this. But, if you try to compare comic "canon", you're just going to get really frustrated...

I was disappointed with the way they handled Rogue's character. Overall, the movie fell short of the exepectations I had for it--the first two set it up to be something really great, but all that really was accomplished were a whole bunch of special effects, the killing/eliminating/ignoring of major characters, and an excess of screen time for Hugh Jackman.

I love this movie, but reading the book clears up so much that was left muddy. I do think it was well-adapted for the screen, though.

Two words: Cult Classic.

I was not disappointed with anything but Spider-man's apparent loss of his spidey sense. Parker was taken by surprise far too many times for his spidey sense to be functioning properly. Or, you know, for the writers to remember he has one.

I loved the movie the first time I saw it, and that spawned the need to read the book it's based on. The book is almost wholly different; it's set in, I believe, the 1950s, which changes the meaning completely. But, that said, I like where the movie went with it better than the book.

This I watched just to see Kristen Bell. I ended up liking it for more than just Bell's acting and vocal skills.

The book by Anette Kurtis-Klause was better all around--better writing, more plausible characters, a title that actually made sense--but it is nice to see a wonderful book (sort of) put to film. Hopefully, this film will draw more people to the book...

This has to be one of the best movies I've ever seen. Of course, it's also one of the most romantic. A very wonderful movie all around. (It's even got Alan Rickman!)

Joss Whedon is a genius.

I haven't read the book and honestly had no interest in seeing the movie, but my mom coerced me into watching and I loved it. I'm a sucker for movies and documentaries involving the Holy Grail...

Wonderful in a tragic sense. Also, I've admired James Franco since Freaks and Geeks...

This is my absolute favorite of all the InuYasha movies. I think it's mostly because Kikyou doesn't make an appearance.

The plot line was very interesting. I wasn't impressed with the lack of Orihime, but, despite that, the movie was very well done and enjoyable.

Most of the time, if a movie is based on a book, the book is better; Eragon is no exception. The book is more clear on most everything and the plot line and character interactions make so much more sense--especially when connected to the sequel...I will say, however, that I absolutely loved hearing Rachel Weisz do Saphira's voice.

An absolute classic!

I was reluctant to see this, mostly because I thought there was no possible way to improve on the original--but I was wrong. I love this movie; not as much as the original, but it certainly is great in its own right.

This is one of the strangest movies I've ever watched. It's also one of the most socially daring. It goes places most films aren't brave enough to and it does it well.

Jessica Alba really surprised me with just how suited she was for the role.

I love this! I was never a fan of the Fantastic Four comics (or cartoon), but I love the movies.

I'm not a fan of the comics--I haven't read any--so I don't know how well this matched up to canon or not, but I enjoyed watching it.

I enjoyed watching this, but Nicholas Cage was too old for the role.

I loved the series, but, sadly, haven't seen the movie.

I love this movie! It's been awhile since I've seen it, but I do remember enjoying it--and the soundtrack.

I've seen the original with Ricki Lake, so I'm curious to see the remake.

I really enjoyed this one. The ending wasn't quite what I thought it would be, but I felt it was appropriate.

I like the movie and think they did really well with casting. I did see the movie before I read any of the books, but I think it stuck close enough to the book.

When I was about ten or so, I absolutely loved this movie--even though I've never been a fan of football.

I enjoyed watching this. There was a bit more sex talk in it than I expected, but it seemed to fit the story as a whole.

An interesting concept to say the least. Add that with a really talented cast and you have a rather good movie.

Not my favorite of the triology, but A.J. Cook and Ali Larter are good enough actresses that the movies isn't a complete waste.

Not as good as the first one, but better than the second. Mary Elizabeth Winstead gives a good performance.

Despite what I've heard will be left out of the film, I really can't wait to see it. Honestly, as long as they have the Harry/Ginny kiss as it was in the books (or at least similar to the way it was in the books), I'll be happy.
