And omg I was not disappointed by ANY OF THEM [except for maybe Fantastic Four and Shrek but I knew I was going to be so that's ok)

I don't really have time to talk about them all so I'll give you the ratings and why to's and the how for's.

POTC: At Worlds End: 8.5 YOHO's/10

Pirates was good, not great, but good. Johnny did his Johnny thing Orlando and Keira continued to not to be able to act, Bill Nighy was still somehow sexy as a squid faced man, Davy Jones crew CONTINUED to freak me out, Geoffry Rush was awesome, Yun Phat Chow was his normal pimp self and the rest of the crew did what they where told to do. The effects where AWESOME, so much better than the second one. Although they could have done so much more, they impressed me [although that ain't so hard to do anymore]. I was glad as all get out that the movie was so long, it didn't seem like much was cut and that makes me happy, I like a nice long pirate movie, since the second one was such shit.

Oh and Norrington dies... that PISSED ME OFF! FUCK YOU DISNEY! YOU KILLED MY MAN!


Spiderman 3[mo]: 6 crying emo bitches/10

Well what can I say about series I've hated since the beginning? Nothing else then, when are they going to get actors that can act? Other than Kirstin Dunst and [Whose only good accomplishment that I've seen is Marie Antoinette] James Franco and my hero Thomas Hayden Church, the rest of the cast can kiss it, ESPECIALLY that piece of no good Tobey Maguire. At first I gave this movie a 7.5, but after reviewing it again in my mind I began to realize what a piece of garbage it was. Sure it was fun, but it had no direction, seriously, the only thing it was leading up to was the final battle. Venom was cool but just wasn't featured enough, this movie I say was definitely not long enough, although run time was at 140 minutes the movie just felt like it was lacking. Sure I had fun, it just wasn't that good of a movie.


Shrek the third: 6 fat green babies/10

How sad was I too see this movie? Very very sad, it's like everything in the world has to come in three's anymore. Shrek one broke the mold with it's witty humor and it's amazing animation, Shrek 2 was a boatload of laughs with the ability to watch it over and over again, and quite possibly surpassing its predecessor in style. Shrek the Third, was long, slightly amusing, and too preachy. Sure it was funny, I mean who wouldn't laugh at Eric Idle as Merlin or Kung Fu princesses? But it just wasn't enough to save this movie, I'll buy it when it comes out to complete the collection, but that's all.


Knocked Up: 8.99 Jew sperms attacking the pretty greys anatomy girls E! Television anchor's eggs/10

Oh boy, I swear to you, if you haven't seen this movie yet, get your ass to the theater, or have it pre-ordered at your local video store. This movie was so much fun, not only for couples, but for anyone who has been in a situation where they didn't know how to get out of with someone they don't exactly get on with. Katherine Hegal, the girl who plays Alison in this movie, was beautiful, funny and amazing, she truly lights up a screen. Seth Rogen plays Ben Stone the fun loving party guy who just happens to be funny enough to get a drunk Alison in to bed, couple weeks later, guess who's preggers? It's a great fun film from the guy's who brought you the 40 year old Virgin, I can't wait for what they come up with next.



Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer: 5 amazingly pretty silver men/10

I don't wanna talk about it.


Meet the Robinson's: 7 cute little blond haired kids/10

This movie was cute, educational, beautiful, and fun. It was definitely a kids movie, adults would like this movie, only if they have children. It was fun and makes your heart have butterflies and your eye tear up a bit, but it's not the
kind of movie that we young adults would watch on a normal basis.


Hot Fuzz: 9.5/10

AHHHH!!!!! OMGIWASWATINGFORTHISMOVIETOCOMEOUTFORSOLONGOMG!

If you could read that, you're amazing. As many people know I am a HUGE
Shaun of the Dead fan, and even more a HUGE Simon Pegg Fan and when I found out the boys from Shaun of the Dead where going to come around and do an action movie... I won't lie, I almost pooped muhself. I try my best not to get too excited or have expectations for movies, but sometimes, when you love a movie so much, as I do Shaun of the Dead, you can't help but want another one.

In this movie Simon Pegg plays Sgt. Nicholas Angel, a London cop, that's simply too good. He makes the rest of the force look like kids, so they decide to relocate him to a sleepy village in the country, that hasn't had a murder in over 20 years. But a lot of people seem to be dying by "accident"... hrrm conspiracy?! Nicolas Angels sure thinks so, and I won't go against what he says. He's too good looking.

Of course Angel is pissed, he liked the rough and tough streets of London (Never thought I'd ever say that) and now they're sending him to a place where nothing happens. Poor Mr. Angel. Soon he meets up with everyones blumbering Best Friend Danny Butterman (Nick Frost) who plays the drunk action movie obsessed son of the police Chief. They're are a couple guest appearances by our favorite people around here, Billy Nighy is the Chief Inspector Kenneth, my boyfriends favorite character from Shaun, the cockacidal maniac even has a part in the movie.

The movie is excellent, just the right amount of action, suspense, drama, gore, thriller, comedy you need and except from these boys. I can't wait for it to come out on DVD so I can watch it over and over and over again.


Tomorrow I'll write the review for Live Free or Die Hard and hopefully within the next week do my DVD reviews for the ones I rented.
