Get Smart (2008)
3.5/5
2008-11-09 23:13
Had a few laughs and was mildly entertaining but not an overall best. Most likely wouldn't watch it again.

The Incredible Hulk (2008)
4/5
2008-11-02 23:11
This was much better than the awfully acted and horrible CGI 2003 version. I love Edward Norton and the story in this was much better, as well as the animation. Overall, much improved and a nice start for the Avengers movie that's coming up.

Saw V (2008)
3/5
2008-11-01 23:15
It was violent and bloody and respect them for at least having some creative story when this is the fifth movie. But overall, it's boring and repetitive and pretty much, enough already!

The Strangers (2008)
4/5
2008-10-25 00:00
Holy shit did this movie creep me out. It was one of the better "scary" movies I have seen in awhile and the best thing about it is that its effectiveness lies in the suspense and not the blood and gore. I spent this entire movie with my fists clenched. And that, to me, makes for a damn good movie.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008)
4/5
2008-10-06 00:00
I'm a big fan of almost anything coming out of the Apatow camp and this was no exception. But what I liked about this movie, aside from the fact that it was funny, was that all the characters at some point were likeable. There was no clear good guy, bad girl scenario. Everyone was just trying to navigate their lives. That, along with the funny delivery of many lines by many of the side characters, made it a really enjoyable movie to watch.

The Ruins (2008)
3.5/5
2008-09-14 22:41
I thought this was going to be another B-horror movie but I was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't a phenomenal movie but the story was different and the acting wasn't too over the top. Good for a rainy day.

Hamlet 2 (2008)
3/5
2008-09-06 22:40
I wasn't interested in seeing this at all but I was pleasantly surprised. It was humorous in that Napoleon Dynamite kind of way. And I heart Amy Poehler.

What Happens in Vegas (2008)
4/5
2008-09-05 22:23
I expected this to be mediocre at best and Steve almost gagged at the thought of watching it. But both of us were surprised - the movie had some great laughs and while it ventured into happy ending romantic comedy territory, it was never overbearing or saccharine.

Street Kings (2008)

I didn't have high hopes for this movie but was pleasantly surprised. It reminded me of a movie version of The Shield.

Pineapple Express (2008)
4/5
2008-08-24 19:40
Despite the almost uncomfortable homoerotic undertones, I found this movie thoroughly entertaining. James Franco is absolutely fabulous as Saul and steals the show. Such great characters and a decent storyline.

The Brave One (2007)
3.5/5
2008-08-21 20:54
I've always been wishy-washy about Jodie Foster but I do love Terrence Howard. And this movie, while not phenomenal, moved enough to surprise you and make you think about what you would do in a situation like that.

The Notebook (2004)
3.5/5
2008-08-15 22:37
Most girls LOVE this movie! Most guys hate it. I'm somewhere in the middle. I love Gena Rowlands and James Garner and Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams were perfect as young Allie and Noah. It was a fabulously told story. And a beautifully shot movie (most here in Charleston, natch). I just am not head over heels in love with it.

Grandma's Boy (2006)

An oldie but goodie, we pulled this one out on a slow Friday night. If you don't like this movie, something is wrong with you. I love Nick Swardson and the story was actually decently developed and filled was hilarious laughs and greats quotes. "High score? What's that mean? Did I break it?"

This was such an enjoyable movie! All the characters were developed wonderfully and the story was engaging and interesting. Much much more than I expected!

I always love Will Smith and he was rather funny in it. The premise was rather weird but it was entertaining in the least.

Got off to a slow start and I ended up dozing off. But what I saw of it was entertaining in the least.

Money, corruption, scandals and Jason Statham ... what more could you ask for from a movie?

Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)
3/5
2008-07-26 23:44
Not as bad as I expected it to be. A rather entertaining film to follow up The Dark Knight with (we saw both at the drive-in). Bet it would've been cool in 3-D.

Teeth (2007/I)
3/5

This wasn't a bad movie. It was just weird. There was definitely less of a horror aspect than I expected. But it was fairly well done for the subject matter.

Vantage Point (2008)
3.5/5
2008-07-23 20:09
Telling the story from four different points of view was unique but rather slow at first. Once it picked up towards the end, it was rather entertaining.

Stop-Loss (2008)
3.5/5
2008-07-22 13:26
Steve said it was sad and depressing and that made it bad. I think it affected him more than he will admit. I thought it was amazingly eye-opening and heartfelt, minus the horrible Southern accents.

WALL·E (2008)
5/5

So amazingly adorable! The love story between EVE and Wall-e was magnificently conveyed through simple gestures and a very small amount of words. This is definitely one to buy on DVD.

This movie was a rip-roaring good time! Have to be forgiving with the stunts but once you get over that it's just really fun to watch.
