I fully enjoyed this strangle quirky movie. The acting was solid. I actually like Ferrell more as a dramatic actor. The plot kept me wondering what was going to happen. And the payoff was fulfilling.

Tangled (2010) - Rated 16 Jan 2013

My wife and I love watching this movie. It was just fun. The characters were deeper than expected. Heck, one of the characters is almost exactly like my mom. I kid you not.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) - Rated 16 Jan 2013

Solid acting, I have not complaints. The story was deep, so deep I did not get what was going on for a while - had no clue who it was until the very end. I watched this for the superb acting, not the barely there action scenes, or the joyful entertainment of it all.

Up in the Air (2009) - Rated 16 Jan 2013

Clooney gave a good performance. I like movies where the character develops during the story line.

X-Men: First Class (2011) - Rated 16 Jan 2013

Good acting. Good action scenes. Good story line. Even had a few cameos! I especially like the one that said "F*@% off". I wonder how much he was paid to say those two words?

Kung Fu Panda 2 (2011) - Rated 16 Jan 2013

Fully enjoyed this movie. Funny, entertaining, and used a lot of Kung-Fu philosophy. It is sad the a "cartoon" had more substance than most of the movies that year. I cannot wait for the 3rd movie.

The King's Speech (2010) - Rated 16 Jan 2013

Great acting by Firth and Rush. They made what would have been a terribly boring movie into very watchable movie on relationships between people and themselves.

5 Centimeters per Second (2007) - Rated 16 Jan 2013

I like a good animation as the next person, but this movie never gave me the payoff. It starts with a soft promise, but drifts off at the end of each story. Leaving me wondering: that's it? I think of this movie as a mood piece, instead of an actual story line.

Inception (2010) - Rated 16 Jan 2013

Good action scenes. Though, to nit-pick, the logic of this movie fails under slight examination - from how all of the main character's rules are broken to the "physics" of the "layers" to the question of reality. This was a decent DREAM movie. Yes, the entire movie is a dream. That is my take on it. I like movies that make me think at the end on a deeper idea. This movie wanted to question what is reality. Sadly, the question was as deep as the movie poster.
