Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. I skipped this one last week because I thought it would be yet another weak addition to the franchise, but I reconsidered when I read some positive reviews. I have to say I was impressed and really liked it. It's not nearly as good as the original, but what is?:p
The Departed. I went to see this with my cousin. I'm not a Scorsese or Dicaprio fan, but I really liked this movie. It's not as good as Infernal Affairs, the Asian movie that inspired it. IMO, Scorsese fell into the same trap a lot of directors fall into; he felt the need to take things one step too far with the ending. He should have ended it about two or three minutes earlier. Overall, however, it was good. Jack Nicholson is great (if a bit over-the-top at times).
