Me And You And Everyone We Know


Had some short interesting scenes, and looked kind of cool, but overall this movie was very boring. Everyone seemed kind of dull and sick, like they all had mono or something. It was kind of like Napoleon Dynamite, minus all of the humor.

4.5/10

Adaptation.


I watched this because it was by the screenplay guy who did Being John Malkovich, I didn't realize he was the main character of the movie. I highly recommend this! Very original, but I liked Being John Malkovich more.

And I just realized how clever the title is! AMAZING!

Blow


Good Drug Movie. Seemed very similar to all drug movies, but I liked how it was done.

Step Brothers


Very funny! As good as I wanted and expected it to be. Lived up to the humor of Anchorman, Talladega Nights, Walk Hard, Superbad, and so on.

8.5/10

Be Kind Rewind


Pretty good. Michel Gondry's short things are better though.

The Dark Knight


I'm surprised how good this movie was, because I don't remember being a huge fan of Batman Begins. It seems like a huge, boring, portion of that movie was just Bruce training in the mountains.

This movie had both Batman villains I am most aware of. It's kind of sad to see that two face is already dead. WHO'S LEFT??? THE RIDDLER?? THAT MUD MONSTER THAT CAN CHANGE INTO PEOPLE???? Or hopefully the penguin.

The Joker was a very good character, I kind of wish they had explained what happened to him at the end though. I WAS KIND OF EXCITED TO SEE HEATH LEDGER DIE.

The Machine Girl


I liked it more than Ichi the Killer.

The Ice Harvest


Well, I didn't know this was supposed to be a comedy until I just looked it up, but my favorite parts were the parts that were supposed to be funny.

Men in Black II


I watched this a few years ago and hated it. I thought I'd give it a second chance, and it was as bad as I remember it. All of the aliens are ugly and unsympathetic, the plot was lame and confusing, and even the effects looked lame.

I did like how they briefly mentioned the morgue girl who joined the MIB at the end of the first movie. I also liked how she wasn't in this movie at all.

3.5/10

The Tao of Steve


I was going to give this movie a 5 because I thought its whole structure and a large portion of its premise was completely ripping off "The 40 year old virgin" and "Knocked Up." Even the main character was a pot smoking fat guy with a beard. However, I looked up the release date and this movie was made 5 years earlier than The 40 year old Virgin, so that's a huge plus. But I liked those 2 movies better. This movie also had a bad ending, it seemed like it kind of cut off. SHOULD HAVE BEEN FUNNIER.

6.5/10

Ghostbusters


I thought I had seen this movie before, but as I watched it and found that I didn't recognize any of it, I realized I had never seen the entire movie before. I thought it would be better. I don't know why they hired the black guy, he wasn't an important character, and barely said anything. LAME. Also, the movie wasn't very funny. +1 for nostalgia action
