    Fanboys 3/5

    Much like almost everything else Star Wars related that has come out in the past ten years you'd have to be a bias fan to appreciate or get it.

    Ghostbusters - 8/10

    Now I know who to call! :eek:

    A great, classic movie. I recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

    Sex and the City 2 - 3/10

    Girlfriend dragged me to see this with her. Utter waste of time. I haven't seen the first film, but I'm positive that it was probably a great closing to the entirety of the 'Sex and the City' series/franchise before this money-grabbing sequel came to fruition. Blech.

    Inception - 9/10

    Still as exciting now as when I first watched it. Just makes me crave more for what Nolan still has up his sleeve. Aside from The Dark Knight Rises that is. :lol:

    I Am Number Four - 5/10

    Expected much more Action and over-the-top Sci-Fi Stuff, but it turned out to be a meh mix of a Teen-Romance and only the last 20 Minutes were somewhat eventful and Action-Driven. And the Open Ending sucked.

    Despicable Me 3/5

    Not great by any stretch of the imagination, but it's about as good as a computer-animated film not made by Pixar can hope to be.

    Sucker Punch...I don't know how to rate it. It was extremely entertaining, but I don't know if I can call it a good movie. Emily Browning was sure a fox though.

    Primer - 6/10

    I guess it was just too complex, and I really can't be bothered to watch it again.

    Jane Eyre (2011) - 5/5

    Unfortunately, the theater I saw it in had malfunctioning speakers (treble way too high) but still, it was so much better than I expected. Will be on many lists come awards season.

    Paul - 7/10. Really funny movie. Loved Simon and Nick, like always. And Seth as Paul was a good choice.

    Limitless - 7/10. Storyline had some flaws, but the overall idea was fascinating. Pretty well done movie.

    Sucker Punch - 6/10. This was a weird movie. It was kind of all over the place, which is fine, but the storyline wasn't good enough to justify the madness. Entertainment-wise it was awesome. Hot girls, awesome CGI, and a decent storyline. Some might hate it, and some might love it. I was caught in the middle.


    And I'm about to watch some anime movies. I'm in the middle of Afro Ninja now. Going to watch the sequel tonight, as well as Princess Mononoke.

    Megamind - 7.5/10 Pretty good for a Dreamworks animated feature. Some of the characters seem kind of poorly casted though. Mainly Metro Man. I think Patrick Warburton would have been better for the role instead of Brad Pitt, but it is what it is. It left me laughing through a lot of the movie, a lot of the jokes had a lot of wit.

    Meteor - 4/10 I only watched part 1 of the movie and I have to say that made-for-tv-movie is about as corny as it gets. You would think it would have a little redeeming value, seeing as it had Christopher Lloyd from the Back To The Future series, and Jason Alexander from Seinfeld, but no. Most of the big names in the movie were washed up actors who probably did this movie for an extra buck.

    And I meant Afro Samurai, not Afro Ninja lol. I'd give it a 6/10 probably. For anime, the fight scenes weren't great and the storyline wasn't amazing, but interesting. Most of the points come from MA rating. I never ended up watching the other 2. Kind of sick of anime now.


    Edit: 13 Assassins - 8/10. This was a really good Japanese film. And it ended with a 40 minute epic fight scene.
