Valkyrie

Good movie but only thing is, it didn’t grip me emotionally (as compared to Lust, Caution). Still a good thriller though with great acting and great direction.

“The Famous 25 Things Tag” from Delichiaz

I’m doing this only because it’s you, Carmen, since you “tagged” me. And also because it is in the spirit of The New Cycle (post below), I’m not going to ignore or say “no”. Who knows it could be fun and I may find new awareness and discover myself more?
But you said it’s circulating around [...]

The New Cycle

Before my next post, I feel compelled to make this one first.
One of my new year resolutions (not sure how many I’ve consciously made but the other one off the top of my head now is not to ask “Whose fault?” as a reflex action) is not to say “no” immediately. If I can do [...]

Lakeview Terrace

It took the movie one hour to get to the main point. Before that it was just trudging along on another one point and it got old really fast.

The Pink Panther 2

Nothing interesting, no good acting, but there were some nice laughs. Surprisingly, I didn’t dislike it very much. I really think some of my views on movies have changed in the past three years.

Group Round

A little late for this rant but I’ve been wanting to do it since last week. However, it wasn’t important enough to garner my time so only now am I ranting about it.
American Idol, after 8 seasons, they still have the ridiculous Group Round during Hollywood week. Really, what’s the point? OK, I can see [...]

Bride Wars

It started interesting but then once the backstabbing started, that’s when it all went downhill. What a really boring middle act.

Inkheart

Too many loopholes that were too obvious. The fantasy elements were strong but the story bordered on absurdity. Not enjoyable at all, unfortunately.
