| 25 T1 | Scary Movie 5 (2013) - May 11, 2013
"I saw this because I needed to kill a few hours nd the person I was with didn't want to see Iron Man 3. I can't really think of it as a movie... I laughed a couple times and it wasn't painful for the most part. "

| 79 T8 | Pi (1998) - May 11, 2013
"This is an amazing early film by Aronofsky and it establishes many of his trademark techniques. It is masterfully made and has a grandeur to it that it's hard not to get caught up in, but after its all over I can't quite decide what I'm supposed to take away from it all. This may require a rewatch. "
|
| 78 T7 | The Great Gatsby (2013) - May 11, 2013
"This adaptation is surprisingly faithful and yet at the same time daring. Overall Baz Luhrmann's over-the-top style fits the material well, but Tobey Maguire is a limited actor and the bookending of it with Nick in a Sanatorium feels a cheap and unnecessary excuse for the voice over narration straight out of the book (which is a real blessing). DiCaprio, Mulligan, and Edgerton do some really fine work, but Baz isn't an actor's director and his style can get in the way of the performances."
|
| 62 T4 | The Yellow Handkerchief (2008) - May 02, 2013
"It's a simple enough story but it's well told and William Hurt creates a really sympathetic character. Redmayne's performance is quirky and fun with a lot of depth, and Stewart is well cast but inconsistent. "
|
| 40 T2 | ParaNorman (2012) - May 01, 2013
"I really enjoy stop action visually and I'd heard good things about this movie, but the horror movie intro was the best part. It's a fine premise and an interesting message, but this movie really wanted to be a short, at least a half hour shorter. Also most of the characters are too 2-dimensional to be worth caring about. Didn't Pixar prove you can do better with family appropriate movies?"
|
| 66 T5 | Idiocracy (2006) - Apr 27, 2013
"Fun concept, lots of potential, but it's rather short and could be more fully realized. "
|
| 90 T10 | The Lives of Others (2006) - Mar 14, 2013
"It's a shame that I have such a typical American prejudice against watching foreign language films and that it takes me this long to check out the ones I get intrigued by watching the Oscars. So it only took me about 6 years to sit down and watch this movie - I hope it changes the pattern. This is a great film, very well acted and touching. The lead actor especially does a fantastic job of making a believable 180 degree journey and drawing an audience in. "
|
| 10 T1 | Rubber (2010) - Mar 08, 2013
"Maybe I'll try again to make it through this movie, but it couldn't hold my attention which is definitely a mark against any movie and I basically found it painful to sit through more than 15 minutes at a time."
|
| 73 T6 | Compliance (2012) - Mar 08, 2013
"It's amazing what a filmmaking team can do with $16,000 and a great idea for a movie. The acting is solid across the board, especially Ann Dowd and Dreama Walker. This film is tense, gripping, and provocative enough that I'm already googling the real-life cases of this. Well worth a watch."
|
| 72 T6 | Snow White and the Huntsman (2012) - Mar 07, 2013
"The visual effects in this movie are really stunning. I didn't expect much, but saw it after it got some oscar nominations and and it surprised me a lot. Definitely one of the best big blockbusters of the year and a smart way of re-telling the classic story. The cast is fairly good: Theron is a solid, fun villain and Kristen Stewart works well for the most part. Chris Hemsworth has been better, and the part could have used a little more Han Solo and less earnestness. The dwarves are great "
