Excess of Opinions

Don’t be alarmed, we’re Negroes!

FINALLY, I saw this. And it was everything they said it was!

Very predictable, but since everyone is SO good and I personally didn’t know much about Russian Mobsters, it was a good watch. And co-starring Viggo’s wang, so there ya go.

STINKS.
ILM should spend their time sneaking into WETA instead of animating dick jokes.

i am ashamed that i bought the hype and sat down in the theater. this is one of the worst movies i have ever seen. *ptooie*

SHIT YEAH! i didn’t even know i liked westerns. Ben Foster is a complete genius – god, i hope he isn’t a scientologist.

pretty good, surprisingly. the CG Scary Thing(tm) wasn’t particularly believable, but i haven’t yet seen one that is, and i don’t think i could point to a better one. not much plot, but a movie like this doesn’t need one.

pretty good, but not much more than a kid’s movie. ILM continues to be pretty but lifeless. OMG, Andrew McCarthy in a cameo!!

i loved it! RDJr. was excellent and frenetic and damaged, which are all things i think superheroes should be. it moved quickly, i enjoyed Gwyneth Paltrow and Terrence Howard in their underused yet appealingly neurotic sidekick roles. and i’ve been waiting to see The Dude be a villain for a long time now. although i did get bent out of shape at the physical impossibility of Gwyneth running on metal grating in stilettos.

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.

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.
