A Little Sex (1982)

OK so here is another perfect example of a film custom made for the 30 minute rule. 1 out of 10

Festival Express (2003)

An interesting documentary about the 1970 Festival Express tour. While no doubt there is a bunch of good music played through out the film. My one complaint would be that there was a little too much footage of the performances and for the most part showing full songs was not entirely necessary and I feel it would have been better if the songs were partially interspersed better with the commentary about the tour of which there should have been more of. 7 out of 10

My Blue Heaven (1990)

Wow there is nothing heavenly or funny about this comedy. I recommend skipping this one if you have the choice. 1 out of 10

Smile (2005)

A very touching independent film about two girls with the same birthday who live worlds apart. One with a near perfect life in California and the other in China living with a terrible facial deformity. Although the acting is not all that amazing the story really makes up for it. With Sean Astin and Cheri Oteri playing back-up roles that do not let their star power become overwhelming. Although I still cannot help but think of some SNL skits anytime cheri talks. Definitely worth checking out if you are looking for something a little different and do not worry it is not entirely subtitled. 7 out 10

Eraser (1996)

A decent action film with a good story. It follows a government agent played by the governator who's job it is to protect high profile witnesses so that they can make it to testify at different trials. With enough twists and turns to keep you guessing. I definitely recommend this to any fans of Arnold or of action movies. Do not go in expecting the greatest thing ever and you might just be surprised. 7 out of 10

Necessary Roughness (1991)

I had always heard good things about this comedy. Unfortunately I did not see where all of the hype came from. It was just above average at best and altogether kind of a let down. If you are a big football fan perhaps you will enjoy it more but otherwise I recommend it only if you are bored and do not have much of anything better to watch. 6 out of 10

The Wolf Man (1941)

I am not sure if I am the only one that finds it hard to believe that back in the day people were frightened by some of the classic horror films. I often watch them mainly because they are classics and I find then kind of comedic. This one was more of the same. Tolerable but unfortunately nothing mind blowing. Perhaps it was a break through for it's time but nothing truly amazing for this day and age. But because it is a classic and any horror buff should see it I give it a 7 out of 10.

Amos & Andrew (1993)

Going into this I did not really expect much and what I got ended up being nothing fantastic but nothing wretched either. It was tolerable and kept my attention. Do not expect anything golden if you plan to see this just an OK Comedy with two stars who have some much better pictures. 6 out of 10

Square Dance (1987)

Wow what a snore fest. No more really needs to be said. Easily unanimously voted to use the 30 minute rule on this one. 1 out of 10

Meet the Robinsons (2007)

I had some high hopes for this one. The trailers for it seemed like it would be pretty funny. However it did not turn out exactly the way I hoped that it would. The animation was fantastic however the story is where it did not quite meet my expectations. The jokes were alright but the good ones were just to few and far between. Probably alright for kids but unfortunately for me it ended up being only a 5 out of 10.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

So I must say growing up the Indiana Jones movies were always some of my favorites and they still hold up today. However this movie does slip a little. Let's face it Harrison Ford is looking a little old. Which makes some of the action sequences a little less believable. Over all the story was pretty good and Shia LaBeouf was great. He has really come into his own since the Even Stevens days and I have liked the majority of his work thus far. Overall at it's core its a pretty good adventure film and any fan of Indy will probably enjoy it. But if you are new to the series do not let this film place judgment on the others. 7 out of 10

Lifelock

OK, so I hear the commercials for LifeLock probably at least once a day and I always thought that guy giving out his own SSN was an idiot. Now here is some proof.

District B13

District B13 ended up being a decent film. If you can get past the dubbed English or if you know French you may like this. It has some really good parkour foot chases. The story is just alright but the amount of action makes up for it. If you are looking for an action movie and do not mind it when the words do not match up with the lips there is a good chance that you may like this. 6 out of 10

Undead (2003)

An Australian Zombie film hmm. I did not have really too much hope for this movie. I generally like horror films and comedy. However this was just somewhere in the middle with really not enough of either to make it really all that great. The jokes were alright but nothing to spectacular. It is alright if you are bored and looking for an OK movie. But if you are looking for a better zombie comedy I suggest Shaun of the Dead (2004) and not this. 5 out of 10

Iron Man (2008)

I had pretty high hopes for this movie and did not disappoint in anyway. It was action packed and funny. The CG was fantastic and the story was never a let down at any point. Robert Downey Jr. did a great job playing Tony Stark AKA Iron Man. Although I have not yet begun reading the Iron Man comic books there is no doubt in my mind that they are just as good as the other Marvel comics that I currently read. If they even half as good as this movie was then they will not be disappointed. I am a pretty big fan of the Spider-Man movies and I enjoyed this film even more than those. There is a scene after the credits so do not forget to hang in there for it. I highly recommend this film to any fan of comic books, action movies, or just about anything. 9 out of 10

High Noon (1952)

Voted #106 in the IMDB top 250. While I do not feel it is quite that good I do feel that it was really good. It was a lot better than what I expected. I am generally not really into a lot of Westerns or a lot of older movies. I am broadening my horizons with these things all of the time and movies like this inspire me to continue to check out different genres that may not be favorites of mine. Gary Cooper plays retiring Marshall Will Kane who finds out that his arch nemesis Frank Miller is coming into town and despite being able to leave town with his new wife (played by Grace Kelly) he decides to stick around for one last show down. Played out in semi-real time, the movie follows Will as he tries to round up a Posse to go up against Frank. Definitely worth a look if you are into old classics or Westerns. 7 out of 10

The Final Cut (2004)

This movie has a really interesting plot. An organic implant has been created that records everything that a person sees and hears and then after they die the footage is edited down and played back at their "rememory". Robin Williams does a great job playing a "cutter" (a person who edits the footage and creates the rememory) haunted by a memory from his childhood. It has some good twists and turns and over all ended up being good. Check it out if you are looking for something a little different. 7 out of 10
