I didn't really like the movie that much, tho I thought it was cute.

I think her best crossover movie was Bringing Down the House.

However some of her better performances were in dramas.. I especially liked her in Secret Life of Bees. Her breakout performance such as it was, was Set it Off. Premise of the movie being what it was, QL did a heckuva job in it, IMO.
Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

not sure why it hit me. it *is* cheesy* and such, but maybe it was cause they went north and played in snow.

Dredd is essentially a remake of the Indonesian flick "Raid: redemption. The latter is a Silat martial arts film, in which the action is the best your going to see. The movie blows dredd out of the water.

I have asked her about it before as well.

Don't know what it is about that movie but I like it.

I know it is not great in any area but it is just one of those movies I enjoy.

Zero Dark Thirty - 10/10

With 24 hours reflection, I honestly rate this the best movie I've seen in at least the last 3 years.

I'm looking forward to seeing it, although I don't know if I'll make it to the theaters to watch it.

Silver Linings Playbook 7.5/10

Honestly was way better than I was expecting, the main reason why it's not a higher rating is because of the whole dialogue about how the family were all eagles fan and how it wrapped into the story. Being the homer I am I was sitting there grunting, but enjoying my self the whole time.

No way that friend who was a Cowboys fan would be wearing that Giants shirt in that one scene. That was just wrong.

Good to hear the positive reviews on this. From the previews, it looked like a money grab on the Bin Laden takedown.
What used to be is gone and what ought to be ought not to be so hard.

More opportunistic than a money grab. It's a quality film that was done real well and as accurately as we'll ever know though.

Zero Dark 30.....6/10.....long and boring.....Maybe my expectations were too high and maybe its not being American.....but other then Jessica Chastain ...this movie did nothing for me....and overall I dont think it was that well done....Im still trying to understand how critics gave this movie a good review.


Djangp Unchained......9/10....very good...

Seven Psychopaths.....7/10....really enjoyed it...fun

The Hobbit.....8/10....I never read the book...but I enjoyed this movie
John 16:22 And ye therefore now have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one taketh away from you.
