Thin Ice - 6/10 - Starring Greg Kinnear. It's sort of a dark comedy that's actually entertaining. More of a strong rental IMO.

Journey2 - 4 out of 10. I have to say that I enjoyed it much more than that rating, but only because my eight year old was so taken by it. The visuals and sound were all fantastic, but they really crushed the "willing suspension of disbelief". When I say that, I mean the things where they tried to build the suspense using the characters' own human limitations. I can't really say much more than that without spoilers.

Summary - not good as an adult, but a great flick if you want to spend some time with your kid.

Benchwarmers 8/10.

Really funny movie about kids and bullying.

Saw the vow on valentines. Wife loved it but I did not get the hype. Was not in the same class as the notebook . 5/10- and a five us generous. Then when you actually understand the only part of the movie that was true was that she lost her memory, it really falls flat.

On the contrary, this means war with reese witherspoon was really good. 7.5/10. Fun movie.

21 Jump Street - 7/10. This was a lot more entertaining than I expected it to be considering the stars, but it really didn't take itself very seriously at all and was actually pretty funny at times. There were some good cameos as well. Just a good old fashioned, fun movie.

Lorax. 10/10.

Lil kids movie that quite honestly was pretty boring, but since my girlfriend is in it I gotta give it a 10/10.























Jk, 5/10

Dream House 7/10 It got hammered by critics, but I thought it was a decent mind thriller. It wasn’t a haunted house movie and if you could get through the first 30 minutes or so it turned out to be entertaining.

Puss in Boots. I give it an F

Well my mistake I should have read what the movie was about and to my shock it was a kid’s movie. I was wondering about the grownups taking their kids into the theater and what was wrong with people.

I saw it. It was pretty underwhelming, but did have a really good fight scene near the end. Really drug in spots. Might be a better watch on Blue Ray.

Just watched John Carter (in 2-D).

I'd give it 6/10.

It's worth seeing in the theater; nice special effects. A little...scratch that, very formulaic with your typical reluctant hero dialogue. The main woman actress (Lynn Collins) is a fox. I spent most of my time focusing on her.
