Anyone ever see "Four Rooms"? 3 of the 4 parts of the movie I don't like much, but 'Room 309' is pretty funny. Pulp Fictionesque. A bellhop babysitting for a couple's 2 kids as they go out for New Years Eve, gone terribly wrong. Last couple of minutes here.

If you like it you can find there a couple of other longer clips to put the Room 309 story together.

"Paul Blart" is worth checking out if you're a Kevin James fan but the movie is dumb

My five year old saw Paul Blart in the movies four times and is watching the DVD even as I type. I'm Blarted out. They're making another one, though...so, there's that.

Angels & Demons - like the book, better than the DaVinci Code.  stayed true to the original story line but left a lot out a lot of stuff from the book.  but the things that were left out of the movie didn't really take away from the movie at all.  the movie was right about 2 hours long, which is about how long the DaVinci Code should have been.  all in all, they did a much better job with this one.  4/5

im sure you didnt analyze nearly this much but ive read like five different reviews of this movie that all talk about how the movie has the characters constantly telling each other things they already should know and translating words into english in the middle of sentences and then explaining everything again...that basically the characters are delivery systems for obscure information and its incredibly annoying


i also found this part of ao scotts ny times review hilarious

Holy Mystery! Mayhem at the Vatican

Since "Angels & Demons" takes place mainly in the Vatican, and is festooned with the rites and ornaments of Roman Catholicism, I might as well begin with a confession. I have not read the novel by Dan Brown on which this film (directed, like its predecessor, "The Da Vinci Code," by Ron Howard) is based. I have come to believe that to do so would be a sin against my faith, not in the Church of Rome but in the English language, a noble and beleaguered institution against which Mr. Brown practices vile and unspeakable blasphemy.

So he hasn't read the book but believes he's in a position to criticize Brown's writing? What an assbag. Never mind that he's right and Brown isn't a very good writer, he should be shot for passing judgement on something he's never been exposed to.
