Män som hatar kvinnor 8/10
I haven't read the book but this made me wonder. I'm planning to read all books before watching sequel movies.

The Evil Dead: 9/10

Corny, hammy, filmed on 16mm but an absolute classic and brilliant for it. A must for all horror fans! Gotta love Ashley..

"None But The Brave" 2.5/5. NOT the 1965 Frank Sinatra film. This one was made about 10 years ago and is about the Nisei in WW2. Among others,it features Jason Scott Lee. Can't find it on Wiki or Google


I must have missed it when it came out,or perhaps not released her. Although I 'get it',the film doesn't quite work for me.

Tron Legacy: 5/5 - fantastic movie.
Gullivers Travels: 4/5 - it's Jack Black is an idiot movie. Laugh.

Hot Fuzz: 10/10. It's likely the most-well executed "buddy cop comedy" in existence, and probably the best film about police ever. I particularly was impressed with the character Nicholas Angel; He has an anal-retentive attitude towards the upholding of the law, but, surprisingly, it never reaches the point where it makes him look like an idiot. I wonder what the fact that a parody is the genre's best film says about the genre as a whole.

The Man Who Sued God Rating: Okay
--This movie had a very strong premise but a very weak ending. Billy Connolly just really kicks ass in this but the problem with the latter parts of the movie is that there just doesn't seem to be any tension. If the movie was thirty minutes longer and more of the film concentrated on the ups and downs of the trial, it may have turned out better, but this is basically a weaker Erin Brockovich. The whole trial just seemed to follow the formulaic needs of the movie and offering the reward of Connolly's success without going through any of the tense efforts seen in Erin B. It is an okay movie but I definately recommend Erin Brockovich over this.

Where the Green Ants Dream Rating: Dull
--This is the movie avatar without the acting, story, direction, storytelling elements, tension, or action. The paralells with James Cameron's movie is quite interesting, but it doesn't make the movie worth watching.

Amadeus Rating: Fantastic
--I did watch this movie in high school, along with Sybil, so after seeing it in the library, I checked it out and gave it a rewatch. This movie is ten times better than I remember it. Fantastic acting, excellent writing, the music is intoxicating, and the story, although embellished and altered from its clearly historical roots, is enthralling. I loved every second of it.

Sybil Rating: Absolutely Wonderful
--This is another movie I hadn't seen since high school so I checked it out from the library and watched it again just today. I never watched Sally Field in anything else but I was very interested to know that she was apparently the flying nun and nearly turned down for the part by the executives at NBC because of her comedic roots. Her acting as well as that of Joanne Woodward's made this movie. It's plainly obvious the quality and care that was put into the movie that was spelled out in the special features. This was a fantastic movie and easily my favorite of the bunch so far.

Citizen Kane {Not Yet Watched}
--This movie has been rated as among the greatest movies ever made. That is a lofty perch for a movie to sit and a lot of expectation to live up to. I have never seen this movie and I was glad to find it at the library. Unfortuantely, it was only available in VHS and it doesn't work in my VCR. Luckily, it seems to work in my parent's VCR, so I'm going to watch it soon come hell or high water. I'm looking forward to this one and I'll post again about it soon.

Shrek 4 - a fantastically funny and heart-warming effort from DreamWorks. It really was a long awaited returned to form that only the first Shrek film had previously provided and made the trying-too-hard second, and the insulting-our-intelligence third instalments obsolete 'bore fests' by comparison. The quadruplets could be chronologically likened to a sandwich where the first and last is wonderfully baked bread... but the middle two are a half-arsed filling.

Overall, a very happily after ever conclusion to the media franchise.

I've just watched Creation. A fine movie, focused on an imaginary relation of him with his late daughter. It would be much better if they had more of Thomas Huxley. 7/10

A quote from movie
Huxley (to Darwin): You've killed God, sir. And I say good riddance to the vindictive old bugger!

Green Hornet - 7/10. Entire movie was built around the climax scene, which was great. Could've skipped the first hour though. :S
