The Ruins - 3/10
I expected this to be a stupid horror movie, but I also expected it to be scary and it wasn't. It only gets a 3 because a hot chick spends a lot of time in her underwear and shows us her ass a few times.
Body of Lies - 8/10
A little slow at times, and a few plot holes, but overall, a really good movie.
Gran Torino - 10/10
Personally, I think Clint got screwed by the Academy. This was easily the best movie I've seen in a couple years. I loved the subtle humor and found myself laughing a lot more than I expected to.
Jurassic Park - 8/10
My kids hadn't seen this, so I bought the trilogy and we watched the first one yesterday. Still a great all around adventure movie. Classic Spielberg.
Tropic Thunder - 8/10
Seem like comedy is the genre where people's opinions vary more than any other. I loved this movie and laughed my ass off. Tom Cruise was the highlight.
Journey to the Center of the Earth - 2/10
How Brendan Frasier has a career is simply beyond my comprehension. My kids enjoyed watching this, so it gets 2 points. But this was one of the worst movies I've seen in a very long time.
Righteous Kill - 5/10
Not terrible, just mediocre. And for a cop movie starring DeNiro and Pacino, I expected much more.
Taken - 8/10
Yeah, it was predictable. But I've always been a fan of movies that feature a bad ass dude going on a killing spree to save someone or get revenge.
Max Payne - 6/10
Kinda stupid, but I still enjoyed it for the whole "killing spree for revenge" thing.
