I would have settled for the bare minimum, then.

Tron - eye candy, otherwise pretty lame.

The Tourist:
Unbelivable premise, weak plot, quite a few holes.  Big twist at the end tries to make up for it but all it does is make you think "Wait, did I just see a chick flick?".  I should have watched Tron.
4/10

Agreed. It was the first IMAX 3d movie Ive ever been to and 50% of it wasn't even in 3d.

toy story 3 was amazing. best film of the year that ive seen...and i have seen shtein.

the damned united---good sports movie even though its about a bunch of dirty brits.

zombieland---fun but not as fun  as it could have been. emma stone was all kinds of hot, though. i bet here stuss smells terrific.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Took my nephew to see the 3rd Narnia today. Good movie for kids/teens except the second half of the movie consisted of a scene where they are all crying and hugging and saying good bye to each other.

The plot was brilliantly original - they had to go on a quest to find 7 swords which, when reunited, created a magical power that could overcome a great evil power. Or maybe it was rings or crystals or something. But it was well done considering most everything out of Hollywood is the same old reheated stuff we've seen umteen times anyway.

Spoiler alert: here's the ending:  the good guys win.

easy a - something of a mix btwn juno and mean girls...stanley tucci and patricia clarkson are amazing as the parents of emma stone...movie is not as funny as mean girls but its more intelligent and has an excellent screenplay

7/10


irresistible - a hand that rocks the cradle type "thriller" that doesnt thrill or do much of anything good...the ridiculous plot has huge lapses of logic...emily blunt is hot as farg in it...pretty much as good looking as susan sarandon is bad...sarandon looks like a kenzo crack whore

2.5/10

The Town was ok. Not as good as Gone Baby Gone and the acting was pretty bad all around. The story was interesting enough and the robbery scenes were good. I think Affleck is a decent director but needs to pare down his dialog or give the dialog to actors who are more capable of delivering it.

Adventureland. Completely enjoyable, but nothing life-changing. Good use of two hours.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

i remember being so disappointed when i finally saw gone baby gone...so overrated

i think the town is def better...altho neither are great movies

renner alone gives the town an advantage

Agreed.

And, shockingly, I disagree with everything IGY posted. Weird.

after watching football all day yesterday and The Town.  i took one for the team and watched Sex and the City 2 with my g/f.


seriously, and I mean this quite literally...the worst move I have ever seen.  it's 2.5 farging hours long and about 1.5 hours into it, i said to her...what's the plot?  and she didn't know.  she wanted to turn it off after 2 hours..that's how bad it was.

i just hope everyone involved with that movie dies a horrible, painful death.
