Movie Review: 500 Days of Summer

LOVED IT! Joseph Gordon -Levitt was great. I ended up running out and watching other movies he was in. Saw the following movies:

Manic-Angry young Joeseph. Also stars Zooey Dechanel.

Brick - Very interesting and different. Need to watch with sub-titles because the dialouge is hard to keep up with sometimes.

Mysterious Skin - Depressing but good. If you don't cry you have no heart.

The Lookout - Good movie but not as unique as his other films.

Okay back to 500 Days of Summer. Another actor would have made this performance flat. He really brought the character to life. I was feeling for Tom the whole movie! I want this DVD for X-mas.

Movie Review: The Wrestler

Very good movie. I was hoping it would make me cry. It didn't but I still thought it was touching. Mickey Rourke is a very good actor with all the drama in his life I think I forgot about that. If you can get past the exterior (which isn't that hard to do) his performance was awesome. I hope to see him in more stuff.

Movie Review: 17 Again

From what I've heard this movie has been getting trashed. It wasn't that bad. Creepy in some spots when the daughter is attracted to the teenage version of her father. What was actually kinda touching and not creepy was teenage Zac Efron falling for his adult wife. Now don't get me wrong I am too damn old to be into Zac Efron but the kid is appealing. Cute boy but not really feeling the side swept hair do. I have to say I wrote him off especially with all the HSM publicity. He's a cute guy and as he gets older I think his fan base will include an older demographic.

Movie Review: X-Men Orgins - Wolverine

Hugh Jackman did make this role. They could have done more with the Gambit character...in the comic book he was so much fun. I mean really powers that include gambling! But then again the comic goes into greater detail on all the characters. Overall I liked it but kinda predictable in some spots. I give a medium warm thumbs up.

where ya been?
