Excess of Opinions

George Clooney is a terrible, terrible director who fumbled a clearly tight, snappy script.There is something very wrong with Renee Zellweger’s face. John Krasinski is dreamy, and Stephen Root steals so many scenes he should be arrested. frequently and unforgivably period INaccurate. last and probably least, this movie suffered horribly, pinned beneath the bloated Randy Newman score that he stole from “The Sting” (where it wasn’t much better).

really pretty good! i avoided the first one, but ed norton got me into the theater. the hulk effects don’t do it for me, but the real actors were very sympathetic and engaging, and the plot was simple and not too convoluted. i really enjoyed watching the movie, and i wanted to take bruce banner and betty ross home for dinner. the only thing i really didn’t like was tim roth’s CGI pecs – it was really weird and gross.

completely rad!! the design and backgrounds and textures are completely gorgeous, and the movie just zipped along. really excellent voices filled out a simple, spare plot (like a good martial arts movie ought to have). adorable and really very funny.
maybe not appropriate for small or nervous children, because of Ian McShane’s scary-ass snow leopard. jeebus cripes.

meh – not so good, but it’s nice to see Dr. Jones again and it was decent fun. Karen Allen made this movie for me, she was just delightful. occasional super-dopey special effects (the monkeys?), but generally good fun. Harrison Ford is so unbelievably decrepit, and with hardly a scrap of sex appeal left – i don’t get it, Sean Connery is still sexy and he’s older than dirt. i love me some Shia, but he seemed to be consciously taking the back seat. Cate Blanchett was great, but seemed like she should really be looking for Moose and Squirrel.

a lot like Clerks 2 in that it was much less offensive and with more of a plot than the first, and turned out to be really rather sweet – this was equal parts disappointing and nice. NPH continues to steal the show and fill your heart with love, and Rob Corddry makes my skin crawl; he’s a little too good, i kind of hate watching him.

AWESOME!!! non-stop cheesy effects of the most exquisite kind. all the english speakers sound like deaf trannies. the music is actually really catchy, and the whole thing is just so bizarre and wonderful. also? i had no idea the Japanese did blackface. wow.

completely adorable and awesome, although i will say that i got a bit of cuteness fatigue towards the end. not that it was in any way saccharine, but that the adorableness and awesomeness was so dense, i lost the ability to process it all.

i don’t know why the reviews aren’t better – i thought this was a really entertaining, fun little movie. it’s simple, all the actors are terrific and sympathetic, and i liked the effects.

actually pretty damn funny! not amazing, a bit rough in spots, but definitely worth seeing, especially with beer in hand. oh, Tom Cruise, how you fascinate and repulse me.

good fun, but all over the place and kind of a mess. all the old people are adorable but sing like drunken donkeys. the old people are CLEARLY having the best time ever, which does eventually become infectious. the 2 kids have stellar voices when they’re allowed to sing, briefly. there’s a music video at the end that completely makes the movie. also? if Meryl Streep’s daughter is supposed to be 20, that would mean she had her at about 38. i’m just sayin’, maybe they should have considered the math when casting.
