8/10- Good movie. Its a little slow at times but understandable considering its based on true events and really more of a movie to raise social awareness rather than pure entertainment.
Iron Man - 10/10. Great action, story line and I love the Audi R8 he had. I was wishin' I had one too. It was also great to see SLJ at the end as Nick Fury. Can't wait for the second one.
There will be blood- 1 out of 10 More like there will be shitty acting. I swear everytime the main guy talked I thught he was a cheap ass Tom Selleck wanna be.

Speed Racer stayed true to the TOON!
8/10. Pretty fuggin insane. Extremely fascinating how they show you how people become junkies and what the outcome can be. Just crazy.
Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay-6.5/10 It was alright. Not as good as the first, but worth seeing.

4/10. Maybe I just didn't get it but it was really boring, somewhat confusing, not very intense at all, just generally could not hold my interest. WTF was the point? Why should I care about this crap? I think I may not have given it a fair shake because I wasn't 100% focused on the movie since I wasn't in the theater but godamn this thing was agonizing to watch.
The Great Debaters: 8/10 Solid movie. I love Denzel and he was very good in this role. Forrest Whitaker was also awesome, as usual. However, I was impressed with the young cast in this movie...great acting by the young people.
11/10. Fucking fantastic, anyone who hasn't seen this yet FIND A WAY TO WATCH THIS. Godamnit I loved this movie. The directing was amazing. I love the different styles the director used in the cinematography. Incredible. Acting was surprisingly good considering its a bunch of people you've never heard of and a lot of very young actors (children, teenagers, young adults). They really made you believe it was real. What an amazing movie. The whole movie was in Portuguese with english subtitles but it doesn't hold back the movie at all. Quick synopsis for those of you who haven't seen it; Its the story of a kid in Ciudade de Deus (translates to "City of God") which is the slums of Rio de Janiero. It begins with him as a young kid about 10-12 years old and he narrates the story of all of the happenings within these slums, how certain gangsters in the area take over and all of the activity that happens with these gangsters. Violence, sex, lots of drugs, murders, robbings, everything you would expect from a bunch of 14-20 year old gangsters who basically run the slums. Most of the story is about what goes on with these people but in the end its ultimately about this gyu who is narrating the story and how he grew up and tried to make it out of "The City". I won't give away what happens but its really a great movie, please see it.

The new Narnia, 3.5 out of 5 It was good, If you liked the first one you will like this one. The only problem I had was the ending was kind of like 300 in a kids movie.
High Noon - 8.5/10 The whole movie was suspenseful, all making you wonder what it's all gonna lead up to. The last scene was really cool, the way the sheriff gatted everyone. I thought it was a pretty good movie...could've used more action, but it was nice change from today's movies in the way it was directed. National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets - 9/10 Just as entertaining as the last one. Very comparable with the last one, actually. I still really liked it thought, and I wanna know what's in that damn president's book!! The Number 23 - 7/10 Pretty good movie. Really suspenseful, and crazy. Nothing like I'd expected...which was both good and bad. As in, it wasn't the movie I wanted it to be - it could have been better...but it was still pretty good and surprising. Next up: 28 Weeks Later; Semi-Pro!
I Am Legend: 2/10 This might be one of the stupidest fuckin' movies I've ever seen. He had to kill his dog...there were zombie like creatures...and then the movie is over. God, I want my life back.
Heat: 9/10 I love this movie. De Niro >>>>> *instert name here* I love the cafe scene. One of the greatest scenes in Film History.

Yeah the ending is kind of questionable but I enjoyed it overall.
