Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009) - Rated 28 Aug 2009
This movie was action-packed from start to finish with excellant visuals. The plot, however, was lacking. There just wasn't an original story-line for this movie, same old same old. The visuals were phenominal, props to Bay for those, but perhaps he should focus a little more on the script next time. Acting was okay but not great. Megan Fox just standing there added something though.

Brüno (2009) - Rated 28 Aug 2009
There are a few good parts to this movie but overall not great. It was funny at times and Cohen did a good acting job. It also brings out the point of our obsession with celebrity. It is just entirely too vulgar, almost distasteful. I mean some of the antics were funny but I believe he went a bit too far on some things.

The Dark Knight (2008) - Rated 28 Aug 2009
Heath Ledger's performance is gripping in this film. He takes the role of the villain to a whole other level. I found myself rooting for the villain at times. It is a very dark film that has some flaws but is near perfect. Bale's gruffy voice is a bit annoying at times and the action sequences seem rushed. I believe Harvey Dent was killed off a little too soon, but Eckhart's performance as Dent was great.

Rear Window (1954) - Rated 28 Aug 2009
One of Hitchcock's greatest films. The way he is able to build such suspense even though the entire movie takes place from one location is brilliant. There are also several sub-plots within the movie that are probably good enough to make a movie all there own. Stewart's performance is excellant as usual. It's just a great suspense thriller from start to finish.

Rain Man (1988) - Rated 28 Aug 2009
This is a simply brilliant movie. The way the two brothers were able to become close given such a difficult situation is very touching. Hoffman's performance was magnificent as playing the role of someone with severe autism like this would be very difficult. Cruise's performance was also good, an excellant complement to Hoffman. They were also able to effectively add humor to the movie, a difficult task in a movie such as this. Great film!
