| Down with Love - PG-13 | This movies is pure light-hearted silliness. The outfits are magic and the comedy is slightly screwball. There are moments which are reminiscent of Moulin Rouge while others are more like Austin Powers. It's just great for a laugh. | October 31, 2009 | N/A | |||

| Brother Bear - G |
It was okay. It was a bit bland, I guess. The music was also on the bland side. On the plus side - the moose were great! There were some very unexpected giggles from the things they said. :D |

| A Scanner Darkly - R |
That was one very trippy movie. I'm left with no illusions that Philip K Dick had never tried drugs - he knows too well what he speaks of. The story is also well crafted and the movie well executed. I swear Keanu Reeves was hired for his ability to say "Whoah", and if I'm right then it was actually an ideal piece of casting. Rory Cochrane and Robert Downey Jr are amazing in this movie. |

| Cirque du Soleil: Quidam - Unrated | One of the best Cirque du Soleil. | October 21, 2009 | N/A | |||
| Cirque du Soleil: Journey of Man - G | This was unlike any Cirque du Soleil I've ever seen before in that it had an English narration (by Ian McKellen) and large amounts of the film dedicated to creating a coherent plot. There was far less focus on the actual circus tricks than a normal Cirque du Soleil movie (it seemed), but when they did come across the acts they were beautifully set and mesmerising as always. In fact, these moments are possibly even more memorable for their setting and their place in the plot. | October 21, 2009 | N/A | |||
| The Philadelphia Experiment - PG | As sci-fi goes, it's a very good "what if" story which doesn't try to do anything too flashy. | October 21, 2009 | N/A | |||

| Transporter 2 - PG-13 |
Very silly action. This movie has many huge plot holes, fast driving scenes and moments where bad girls happen to find it more convenient to strip down to their underwear before they start shooting people. Not the worst way to spent a couple of brainless hours. |

| Hating Alison Ashley - PG | The book is far better, but it's been put together fairly well and some moments are actually very funny. It's a good story for pre-teens to learn to get out of their own heads and think about other people's problems on occasion. | October 14, 2009 | N/A | |||

They could have stretched this out over a few movies and actually stuck to the plot, but instead they made up a few things that were completely out of character and blurted out secrets that took whole books to expose. If you haven't read the books it'll make very little sense and if you have read the books you'll be annoyed by it (and not just for the obvious "They're not dark-skinned" point either). If you try to forget any relation to the book and just enjoy the movie for what it is, you'll find it's quite bland (it does have a rather cute song, though). Goro Miyazaki is using Studio Ghibli resources, talent and reputation, yet not quite living up to it himself. |
