    Transformers 2 // 4/5

    there wasn't much of a story going on in there.. all that really happened was they blew things up and went to random locations around the globe... and they showed Megan Fox off of course. and there was too much swearing if you ask me :/ crazy spacial effects though!

    Sex Drive 3.5/5

    This movie starts off great! But then from the middle it sort of starts to go downhill. I still enjoyed it immensely though.

    Transformers 2: Revenge of The Fallen - 6.5/10

    Amazing cgi; definitely not a let-down with the visuals. However, the bad surely outweighs the good. Too many plot holes, and one major contradiction concerning the history of the Transformers' origins within the movie-verse incarnation of the franchise. The dialogue was god-awful, and Bay totally went a tad bit overboard with the jokes. Furthermore, several of the more iconic autobots rarely got much screentime, whilst Mudflap and Skids gained the spotlight - undeservingly so. In short...all bang and no substance is what comes to mind while watching the film. But... atleast Prime was fucking badass in this. Hopefully, a third Transformers will be as good as the first, if not better.

    Night At The Museum 2

    It was ok. The original was actually pretty good but this one is more flawed, mainly because it introduces too many new characters to the point where a lot of the film is essentially a succession characters being introduced, some of which (The cherubs played by The Jonas Brothers and the security guard played by Jonah Hill come to mind) aren't necessary while others (Al Capone) should probably have got more screen time. Some of the more positive reaction to the film has been centered on Hank Azaria (as Pharoah Whateverhisnameis), but I think he was used slightly too much, and is a character that will probably begin to grate for some people.
    The big plus, like the first one, is that it has a very strong cast that more often than not is very entertaining, especially Ben Stiller, Steve Coogan, Amy Adams (even though I think the way Amelia Earhart is characterised isn't the best, but she does brilliantly with what she has), Bill Hader, Owen Wilson, and Robin Williams. But, ultimately, the relative lack of cohesion and development means it's a step down from the original.

    I've seen it today, I thought it was very dissapointing as well. It's so predictable, it's the same joke all the time.

    Adventureland - Pretty good.

    Repo: The Genetic Opera - Good but has songs that are too catchy :lol:

    Get Smart's Bruce And Lloyd: Out Of Control - Pretty funny.

    Orange County - Disappointing.

    The Incredibles - Incredible :lol: Nah, pretty decent though.

    Finding Nemo - Obviously awesome.

    Before The Devil Knows You're Dead - Average.

    The Mist - 9.5/10. Really good. Ending was great though I do prefer the books ending more. They should have kept some of the deleted scenes in the movie I think, and also they should have included one other part from the book.. haha.

    The Substitute 3 4.3/10 okay to watch if you're bored

    X-2 - 9/10 Also really good.

    Dan in Real life - Really good up til the abrupt ending so 7/10

    Letters From Iwojima - A good movie. 7/10

    Finding Nemo - Despite not liking this movie in the past I have seemed to come to like it, which I find strange but 9/10 haha.

    Fire it up - Not good. 0 out of 10

    The Truman Show - What can I say? I love the movie 9/10

    "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince". :)

    It was excellent. Faithful to the source, too.

    EDIT: I'd like to correct the above statement; the movie was missing so much it wasn't funny.
