Prince of Persia. Better than I thought, but I still think Jake Gyllenhall was horribly miscast.

I was totally unprepared for that movie...and that's surprising after seeing I-don't-how-many previews. I liked that.

"Miss March - Unrated" SUCKED!!!

"Harry Brown" was okay. 6.5 outta ten, but, then, I kinda like Michael Caine, and revenge/vigilante justice type stories.

I will often watch and enjoy a bad to mediocre movie just because of the actors. The big exception to that was Bad Lieutenant. That one was horrible because Cage was so horrible.

Just watched How to Train Your Dragon. Very cute movie, had me giggling all the way through it. Then we watched the A-Team. Hubby and oldest son (20) laughed all the way through it, while the younger son (15) and I chuckled a few times. A-Team had a lot of talking while not looking at the screen... that means this chicky can not hear it some of the time. My hearing sucks, and I need to lip read sometimes. Several times Hubby re-wound ( hey... its not VHS and its still called rewind!) so I could catch the funny.

Why don't you turn on the subtitles? Mrs. Z has a hearing defect and we turn them on all the time. 99% of dvds have them.

Sub-titles bug everyone else, and I find many times I am too busy reading, and still miss the funny... lol. We have tried them a few times.
Usually we are pretty good with getting movies that have the actors facing the screen.
Good suggestion though :)

Watched Shutter Island last night. It was good, but the "twist" was predictable. It was odd though--on the one hand, they had several scenes with some very nice special effects, obviously quality CG. On the other, there were just as many really painfully green-screened backgrounds, basically any time they drove in a car or rode on a boat. I don't know why they could afford one but not the other. Anyway, it was enjoyable, but I have no need to see it again, which is what you're supposed to feel with a good psychological thriller.

Shutter was blown way out of proportion. A waste of talent.

He has been miscast since always. I can't understand how he is still taken seriously as an actor.

Eyebrows & monotone! WOW

I watched Micheal Clayton late last night.

The ending was the best part.

Just watched Johnny Dangerously again last night. It wasn't as funny as I remembered. I think it's one of those movies that is quoted a lot because the quotes are funny.

I was surprised that the move was only 93 minutes, it seemed to go on for hours. Very slow pacing.
