I asked a while back about the movie Hesher. boborone gave me some great pointers to look out for. Well, I finally watched it, and I really liked it.

But, boborone, your points were absolutely spot on. Horrible horrible handheld camera work. It didn't do the movie any favors, thats for sure.

But dude, i seriously thought Jake Gyllenhall was Hesher haha...it was so distracting that it wasnt. Not like i have a preference, I just periodically thought it was jake G. Secondly, Natalie Portman's character seemed very familiar...ie, Garden State. Kind of sick of her trying the aloof, wierdo thing...

Other than that, i loved the dialog, the tension, and the ending, and that little kid really did a great job.

The Dark Knight Rises

The Dark Knight Rises is maintained as epic as the prequels with stunning visuals, action sequences and spectacular background score by Hans Zimmer. Tom Hardy as Bane also did a very fine job but upper hands is always with the Joker. And out of three, still The Dark Knight wins, maybe the reason was Joker, as Heath Ledger was outstanding as Joker. Overall, I enjoyed the movie as much as the prequels. And I believe Nolan could make the Dark Knight rise again by watching through the end of the movie, but never happens.

Rating: 8.5/10 (Go for it!)

Watched Lockout. Overall it could have been a good movie. I even got past the cheap chase scene at the beginning. But there were a few parts that were so stupid, plot/reality-wise, that ruined it overall.

Life of Pi

I am always down for an "eye candy" movie. This doesn't really seem like my kind of movie, but I am instantly intrigued by it for some reason. And allot of times its the movies that are out of my comfort zone that I fall in love with the most: There Will Be Blood, The Golden Compass, etc. Not excited about Toby McGuire, but oh well, maybe he wont play a major roll. Has anybody read the book? Or have an opinion on the movie or its visuals?

21 Jump Street - Its a fun watch movie worth entertaining. I can say Channing Tatum has improved with his acting lessons. Jonah Hill seems pretty comfortable with these teen comedy movies. Anyways the duo was good and the chemistry worked out pretty well for them. Rating: 7/10

The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) - Dafuq did I just see? Rating: -1000/10

Leaving Las Vegas - Its a cool movie, and acting of Nicolas Cage is worth as an alcoholic. Should be definitely watchable. Rating: 7.5/10

I watched Wrath of the Titans awhile back.

I got to say I don't know why it was rated horrible, it was great but wasn't as good as the first but still was a great movie. Cronos was sick.

John Carter was great too, another underrated Movie. At first I was wondering myself why everyone liked it but you gotta keep watching to really enjoy what made it great.

21 Jump Street, was a good movie, it's the only one that made me laugh recently. Project X was okay, you've seen it once you've seen it all. But both Channing and Can't remember his name.. Both were great together honestly.

The girl with the dragon tattoo was awesome, one of the best movies I've seen in awhile.

I would think it's mostly down to the unfavourable comparison of the first one with the original Ray Harryhausen master piece.

When, with today's SFX and CGI they can't make a film as good as one released nearly 30 years prior, it's sequel isn't going to be rated highly either.

The Bourne Legacy (2012)

- The movie dragged like hell in the first half and caught up with the grip in the second half only. The plot lacked pace and continuous action at some points compared to the prequels. But Jeremy Renner managed to keep the show going and was still good even compared with Matt Damon. Overall its a watchable movie.
