I have seen many movies recently. What follows is a run down of these movies.
Miss Congenialty 2 (ok so I can't spell congeniality but you get the idea)
This movie was hilarious. I loved every part of it, except at the end with this really cheesy rescue seen. Anyway it was great. And stuck true to the old movie as well. I give this movie 8 stars (on a scale of 5).
Little Black Book.
This movie was great. It was not your classic romantic comedy that every said it was. It was heartwarming and touching. And It contained the words "You can't corner the Midget Market!". This movie gets 6 stars.
The Island.
When I asked Randeep and Jon what this movie was about they said; "Natalie Portman". It was also about clones. It turned out to be a really good movie. Filled with twists and of course, the occasional turn. This movie will not win an oscar though, I think once you hit the two car chase mark you aren't allowed to win an oscar. I give this movie 5 stars.
Charlie and The Chocolate Factory.
This movie was good. It's best moment was the Cannabilism line. It had some plot differences from the original and from the book. The oompa loompas were freaky because the actor had been in the 9th season of X-Files as this body jumping creature, where he'd live inside you and you'd be dead but nobody would know because you still could move and stuff. Then when the autopsy is performed (after the body snatcher leaves) Scully says; "This person has been dead for a week!" So that made the oompa loompas all creepy. Oh! and they didn't sing; "Oompa loompa dopity do, we've got another riddle for you". This was dissappointing. I still prefer Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka. I give this movie 5 stars.
Life Aquatic
This movie had the slowest start ever. OK not ever, but damn was it slow.
The movie did pick up. It was hilarious in a dead pan sort of way. "Ok Interns lets see some Zisou hussle!"and other such hilarious moments. The movie was not nearly has hilarious as the commercials made it out to be. If you're looking for a hilarious Bill Murry movie watch Scrooged instead. This movie gets 4 stars.
Unbreakable.
I had seen this movie before a long time ago in theaters. I had hated it the moment after it was over. But it grew on me and eventualy I really liked it. I watched it with Peter and Angus. The second viewing was good. Odd plot and weird unexpected tie in with comic books. On the whole an ok movie, could have used more hilarity. This movie gets only 4 stars.
Triplets of Bellville.
This was an animated movie with limited script. It was quite hilarious and enjoyable. I can't think of much else to say about this movie other than it earns 5 stars.
Dead Man (or something like that)
I can't quite remember if that's the real title of this movie. Quite frankly it's not important because I don't want to remember anything about this movie. This movie was awful. It had Johnny Depp in it but that didn't even save it. It barely had a plot, and the thin waif of a plot it did have was horribly borring. I did not even finish watching this movie. I got an hour into it hoping it would go somewhere, I realized it wasn't going to so I stopped watching it. It reminded me of About Schmidt, a movie which I also disliked. This movie gets no stars! That's right not even a pity star!
OK so that is all my recent movie watching.
