This is a really good "feel good, then feel real bad" movie. Very emotional. The film style is very dark, which really compliments the darkness of the story. The best "feel good" part is Morgan Freeman's part in "Danger's" first fight.

Hot Fuzz (2007) - Rated 05 Jul 2010

I guess it was ok, but really not all that good. A few funny bits, but just a bit too slow and not all that attention keeping.

To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) - Rated 03 Jul 2010

A classic. Holds well to the book. Very cutting edge and risky when it was made, still a powerful film today.

What Just Happened (2008) - Rated 03 Jul 2010

Pretty flat. Bruce Willis as himself was the best part. Lots of stars, but so, well, flat.

Idiocracy (2006) - Rated 03 Jul 2010

So sophmoric, but targeted to the very wise through sarcasm. It's so scary though, because it really feels like this is a future documentary of our society. It's got what plants crave!

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) - Rated 03 Jul 2010

I generally like Burton flicks, I think Depp is great, and I really enjoyed the book and the earlier film of a similar title. The thing is, I didn't think that much of this one. Wonka is made into a substantially weaker character, and don't even get me started on the Oompa Loompas! Counterpoint: Very visually satisfying!!!!

The Dark Crystal (1982) - Rated 03 Jul 2010

Lots of people like this one less than I do, but this is a great movie. I did see it as a ten year old and that (I am guessing) helped it cement into my brain, but still, a good movie for young and old.

Time Bandits (1981) - Rated 03 Jul 2010

One I grew up with, and one of my favorites! History and fantasy all wrapped up in one. And you will want a map of time before it's over. There is a really nice repro being marketed for about $100!!!!

Wild at Heart (1990) - Rated 03 Jul 2010

"Hotter than Georgia asphalt" David Lynch makes some fine films. This might be the best. Fairly uncomfortable, which seems to be an attractant for me, and with several of my favorite actors. What's not to love?
