Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows I - 8/10
The fact that they split the final book into two movies meant the 1st movie was destined to be slow. All the books are this way, they start of slow and finish in a flurry. The second movie will make up for the slowness of the search. The cast of adults they cast in these films are so top notch, the series would have been a disaster without them.
Human Centipede - 7/10
It's one of those things where you want to turn it off but can't. Here I was foolish enough to think the human centipede would be formed towards the end of the movie but lo and behold, the damn thing is created about 30 minutes into the movie! The actor they got to play the mad doctor was perfect, dude could be creepy just putting sneakers on in the morning.
The Losers - 5/10
Okay as far as action movies go, the fact that they had the balls to leave a cliff hanger on a movie that is completely undeserving of a sequal pissed me off though. Wrap the damn story up!

The Runaways - 7 of 10. I didn't really know what to expect of Kristen Stewart playing Joan Jett, but I think she did a good job. I would have liked to see more of Lita Ford's character, but it was a solid movie.

7.5/10
I thought if Smith's character was both a little more detailed and slightly less mysterious, the movie could have been a touch better at least. The organ donation sub-lines were done well, but I enjoyed the ending of his helping the battered wife/mother storyline just as much as the others.
Whether it's real life or fiction, I always like seeing a happy ending to a domestic abuse situation. Seeing the mother and her kids running free along the beach was a great scene.
... and of course seeing Rosario Dawson is ALWAYS worth the price of admission.

Unstoppable: 6.5/10 - Not really much tension in this movie at all. The performances were pretty good (outside of the executives), but never much of a feeling that anything really bad would happen. The news reports that were scattered throughout were really poorly done, and one of the last ones had the audio not match so poorly it was like watching an old kung ** movie.
127 Hours: 7/10 - A really good performance by Franco who is on his own for about 85% of the movie. Otherwise nothing too extraordinary about the movie if you already know the story (which I assume most do), but solidly done. Some of the "flash" (for lack of a better word) scenes pulled me out of the story somewhat. I realize they were trying to show what was going on with his mind being out there, but a few were just so different from what you've been watching that it's somewhat distracting. The end is somewhat moving, as you would expect.

There Will Be Blood is an excellent movie. Then again, most Daniel Day-Lewis are.CATCH17;3721202 said:

It's no Paul Blart, that's for sure. You have become a caricature of yourself.
Maybe you should look at the post directly after mine, and the one a few spots after yours. You love movies the critics adore (maybe you just love critics?) and have made Oscar favorites for years. The movies that the masses usually aren't very fond of and have complained about for years.
We get it, you have poor taste in movies, music, and cars. I'm surprised you're a Cowboys fan with how awful your tastes seem to run.
