I've already seen this three times, but I saw it at the library and I just had to pick it up again. Amazing story about a young man overcoming a traumatized past and striving for something better. Matt Damon is amazing in this, and Robin Williams was even better (won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in his role as the therapist, too). I love this film.
A+
That movie was fantastic.
Enchanted
It was certainly a fun movie, and the songs are very catchy. I found myself laughing out loud pretty well at some bits. The ending kind of...sucked. Especially when Giselle threw the sword and...well, you'll see.
B+
No Country for Old Men
I had very high hopes for this movie, and many of them were met. Javier Bardem did nothing less of astound me with his role; in fact, I thought that there was great acting all around. I loved the suspense, too; and the scenery and cat-and-mouse chase scenes were also superb.
*SPOILERS* ahead!
On the downside... I was fairly confused sometimes as I watched the movie, and I have to admit, it was pretty difficult to watch Chigurh kill innocent people. Which was probably why I looked away during one or two kill scenes. I wasn't too pleased with the fact that a lot of the good main characters got killed and Chigurh ended up getting away free, even if that does happen sometimes in real life. I confess, I'm a guy that likes it when the bad guy finally gets caught, or at least when the main character fails to catch 'im but still *lives*.
It was definitely a good movie, but besides the great acting, directing and shoot-out scenes, I didn't think it was as perfect as it's been made out to be.
A-
Dan in Real Life
Like Enchanted, this was definitely a fun movie. Steve Carrell is just so freakin' awesome. At some times I really disliked his family (especially Cara, his daughter. "Noooo my boyfriend is going away for a WHOLE DAY! You're the worst parent ever, daddy! AND a murderer of love!" -_- ) It was kind of funny... Dan was the weirdest out of the family and yet the most normal; at least, that's what I felt.
I'll give it a...
B+, I think.
