movies part duex

Last week I listed some movies that I watched that I enjoyed.

Now here are the rest.

Movies that I'd give a B to C :

Oxford Blues - Documentary about Oxford boxing club. Very good.

Black Swan - Natelie Portman and Mila Kunis making out. You need more ?

Crazy, Stupid Love - Decent date movie if you need to sit through one. I'm a sucker for all things Emma Stone.

Norm McDonald Stand Up - funnier than I expected.

Adjustment Bureau - Eh, OK.

Contagion - I'm usually a fan of anything with Matt Damon. A bit predictable, but passable. See Adjustment Bureau.


C to D



The Tourist - I like Depp and Jolie. This is fine for what it is.

Salt and Hanna - Same movie essentially. Both OK.

Waking Life - I little wordy and long. Good effects, nice message.

Johnny Mnemonic - Old dystopian film. A little hokey

Ghost in the Shell - Inspiration for the Matrix. Animated.

Poolhall Junkies - Boy this was close to being really good, but just never got there.

Chloe - eh.

Notorius - The story of Notorius B.I.G. This was pretty bad, but if you have the flu and nothing else to watch. Slightly worse than Get Rich or Die Tryin.

F - Don't bother watching

Cedar Rapids - drivel

Easy A - even Emma Stone can't save this

Battle LA - horrid

Outsourced - likeable characters going nowhere and doing nothing

Tapeheads - This is supposed to be a cult classic. That's got to be one unfunny cult.

Player 5150 - Apparently the producer was some rich son of a sheik and flipped out in the middle of filming and took over the entire project. After watching, I believe it. Total crap.

The Pornagrapher - Nice try, falls flat. No pacing.

The Gospel According to Philip K. Dick - Worst production of any documentary I've ever seen.

Greatest Movie Ever Sold - Not to bad, but could have been 15 minutes long in total.

Try "Facing Ali". We watched it this weekend and it was really a good documentary.
