I think he's going to have a very expansive and rewarding career.
I liked the little girl too, she's as cute as a button. I seriously think the movie would have been much better if they had ended it as he was walking back onto the field. Ah well, decent family fare with a couple of standouts. :)

The Happening - To say I was disappointed would be an understatement of monumental proportions. (Okay, I have a slight problem with melodrama.:D) I can normally find one or two good things to say about even the crappiest movies, but this one left me with nothing. All I can say is M. Night's downward spiral continues. F

The Signal - Overall I liked this movie, but it had a few "long" (i.e. - boring) moments. That being said, I thought it was a cool concept to divide it into three "acts" and have different directors for each. B

Nightwatch and Daywatch - I like these movies, but I wish they wouldn't stray so far from the books. A-/B-

The Orphanage - I bought this as soon as it came out on DVD, but I don't know why I waited so long to watch it. It was by far the best of the recent movies I've seen. Absolutely brilliant. A+

"Kung fu Panda" 7-8/10

Thought Jack Black did a great voice job. The intro brought back nice memories to Tenacious "Tribute" and "Wonderboy". Hilarious.

Get Smart- 7/10 Really solid comedy. Never a boring moment. Steve Carell wasn't too terribly bad.

The Orphanage- 9/10 Really brilliant. It doesn't seem like horror to me though, but it's an absolutely brilliant story.

Reign Over Me
I enjoyed it. I found the last quarter or so a little draggy.

Punch-Drunk Love
Wow... why did I wait so long to see this? Definitely in my top 20.

Next up on my viewing list: There Will Be Blood and Boogie Nights

Machine Girl

Holy Crap!!!:eek:

Riki-Oh meets Kill Bill meets Battle Royale (but not as good as those films) with Japanese schoolgirls, machine gun arms, chainsaw legs, drill bras, flying guillotines, ninjas, yakuza, tons of gore, fountains of blood and tempura.

Original? No. Creative? Yes. Fun? Fuck yeah!

7.5/10

ils (them) (2007)

wasn't very impressed with this one.
it had some solid parts, and it looked good, but i didn't feel it was any better than the strangers.

The Spiderwick Chronicles- um, it was, um, well, it didn't suck I guess- nothing like the book series.

One Missed Called- Ed Burns playing Ed Burns, pretty lead actress that I would watch read the phone book:D , nice designer cat at the beginning, I want one...what was the beginning all about anyway? It had nothing to do with anything...or maybe I was just drunk.

10,000 BC- er,um, I think there was a story there ,maybe... I fell asleep after an hour or so, nice big-toothed tiger, I want one.
My kids told me the ending was wierd, whatever that means.
