The Dictator 4/10
First ten minutes of the movie were somewhat funny then it went downhill from there.
I just watched the 1996 version of "The Canterville Ghost" via streaming NetFlix before going to bed last night. Won't be everyone's cup of tea, but it's one you can watch with the kids. There is a 2005 version also that I haven't seen. Good family show.
I remember watching that a loooonnnnnggg time ago when I was a kid. Was trying to find what version. I didn't think it was as old as 1944 so I'm wondering if it was actually the BBC 1962 television series.
and I just watched Man on a Ledge.
this movie sucked balls
2/10
Mr. Brooks
7/10
It wasn't that bad.
Warriors
Had to love Kurt Angle as the badass Russian, kinda funny trying to pass him off as a middleweight at 230 pounds.
Liked everything about it, even the ending wasn't predictable. Sure we knew the brothers were going to fight but the outcome was...????? The character of Tommy, wow! Watch somebody in the UFC play off that.
I'd go with a 8.0 (10 being The Godfather)
Green Lantern 6/10
Batman (1989) 7/10
Moonrise Kingdom
8.5/10
I'll see it when it comes out in Aus. It doesn't try too hard to be alternative or anything. I'm sometimes a bit skeptical about Wes Anderson though have liked a few of his films
Total Recall 7/10 Saw this with my wife. Some great action scenes and a lot of great special effects but characters were somewhat dull. The Original was way better in terms of plot line, character, and humor. Plus it had Arnold! There was a great shot of Kate Beckinsale in her underwear that bumped up the score for me on this one though! Sure wish they had Jessica Biel do the same! Then it would've been a 10!
7/10 Pretty good little film. I liked seeing De Niro in this type of role. Kate Beckinsale, damn she is fine. Good cast, acting, writing, etc.
It's on Netflix. Movie is sadder than I expected, added to it.
I watched 2016: Obama's America last night.
Very well done do entary, not at all a conservative version of Micheal Moore's work like people try to say. Brings out some interesting facts about Obama and the people around him, and an interview with his conservative half-brother George.
The do entary sticks mostly with facts, but does offer opinion, and it is clear to see the difference. Even liberals may like the do entary as it is based from Obama's books and real trips to where Obama has been.

For a do entary 9/10.
Amador 4/10
Not a bad movie but the pace is so slow it makes you want to pull your hair out. Really.
Movie I won't watch:
Last movie I watched was The Dark Knight Rises.
It was truly awful. Now I don't often watch action / superhero movies so I don't know how low the bar is for these things. I went into The Dark Knight REAAALLLLY not wanting to watch it but came out pretty amazed at how good it was - but thinking back they may have just been because of Heath Ledger.
But I went into The Dark Knight Rises, not hating on it, but not particularly really wanting to watch it either - so more open than I was when I saw The Dark Knight - but man. Awful.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes (worse than expected) : 5/10
Crazy Stupid Love (better than expected) : 7/10
The Lincoln Lawyer
Loved it, so..8!!!!!!
Dod Eat Dog 5/10
Netflix has alot of garbage.
Batman: The Dark Knight Rises - 6,5/10 Worse than expected. I can see why some people like it, but it didn't do much for me.
The Fighter - 8/10. Bale was excellent and I really liked Amy Adams in this film.
Slomo, FYI, your 9 is upside-down.
The Avengers 7/10
It was an alright movie. People ing on this movie like it was the second coming is beyond me.
The Hunger Games 8/10
Feels like a B-Movie and its general story has been done 10000x times (dystopia, hunting fellow humans for sport), but the movie was executed well and Woody Harrelson is great.
