Iron Man - 10/10 So far, it's the best movie I've seen this year. On that note, I don't know how long it'll hold that title. The Dark Knight looks like it's going to be amazing and the new Indiana Jones looks badass as well.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (pegs @ May 5 2008, 10:54 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Is that a porno?</div> Sort of. Its a porno that they edited down so that Blockbuster, Netflix, etc. would carry it. I remember it got a little bit of publicity when it was released, I think its a softcore porno so its probably not even worth a rent.

They can come up with decent stand alone story lines. I haven't seen that movie though, I'd rather not waste energy on porn when possible.

7.5/10. Pretty solid little crime-thriller type movie. If you liked Memento you might like this; the main character has a similar mental issue and all of the elements of the story that are shown all end up coming together at the end. Its not great but a nice movie that was relatively unheralded. I like the cast too: Joseph Gordon-Levitt (of 3rd Rock from the Sun fame), Jeff Daniels was great (Dumb and Dumber guy), Isla fisher (aka the crazy redhead chick from Wedding Crashers). Alex Borstein is in it randomly as well. This movie is sort of in the mold of a Harsh Times or Running Scared but with less over the top action. Its more "realistic" and deeper than those two but similar in that its a pretty well done movie that didn't get a lot of acclaim.
Gone Baby Gone 9/10 And I still have a half an hour left in the movie. It's so good, so entertaining, and it really makes you think. Next up: Teeth (about the toothed verginas), then High Noon.

Can't wait to watch it, thought it would be better to watch the Lookout tonight because I have an AP test tomorrow and don't want to get too sidetracked tonight. After tomorrow though I'll have the weekend to absorb Gone Baby Gone. Glad I have Netflix back. School is finally winding down and Warriors and Sharks seasons' are over so I have plenty of time to watch movies. Next up on the queue; Sweeney Todd and Requiem for a Dream.
Iron Man - 9/10 Lacked action, but great storyline and character development, pretty humerous as well.
Total surprise. Adam Sandler in a top-notch serious acting role, along with Don Cheadle (one of my favorite actors) doing a superb acting job as well. Extremely depressing movie. Sandler's character lost his wife and 3 daughters on one of the planes on 9/11, and goes into one of the deepest funks you can imagine. Beyond that, I won't spoil the movie for anyone who's not seen it. 9/10 or 10/10 even.

Heh Is there such a thing as a 10/10? Rhetorical question. Point being it was one of the better drama movies I've seen in years.

9/10. Really good movie, fantastic casting and storytelling. Makes you think your ass off and everything connects to everything else. Tons of themes to think about. Very, very good movie. (sorry for the shit image, its Dead Man Walking) 8.5/10. Watching this for the second time in school. Also very good and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet.
