      Red Rock West (Cage, Hopper)

      It was an okay movie. Parts of it were really good, some decent twists, and other times the acting was so bland and non-descriptive it drove me nuts. Hopper was Hopper, of course. That's always entertaining.

      Worth a see if you just want to watch a movie and aren't particular.

        Wow, the reviews on RottenTomatoes really like MacGruber.

          Pretty good movie. Slower-paced for most of it, which worked in this setting. You definitely get involved with the characters, too. I could have done without the action tangent towards the end, but oh well.

          Definitely should see it.

            Finally finished watching Planet Earth. What a beautiful documentary.

            I'm also glad I didn't buy it because I probably wouldn't watch it again or wouldn't watch it any time soon to justify dropping 40 dollars plus on the set.

              Went and saw Ironman 2 Thursday. Clearly, its not Shakesphere, but it delievers on what its suppost to be, an action comedy for Marvel fanboys. Seemed to me they stayed pretty true to most of the Ironman canon, and put together a pretty good action movie. Rothman was great as Justin Hammer, the swarmy second fiddle to Stark, who could never quite best him no matter how much he wanted to.

              and just an FYI, and not to Spoil anything, be sure to stick around for after the credits.

                Saw IM2 today. It's ok, but I enjoyed the first one much more. Both Rothman and Rourke are fun. Johansson is possibly the only beautiful actress since 1959.

                  Great movie. While Anna Kendrick (the young upstart) overdid her "all business" character at first (think: robot delivery), she eventually started actually acting in the movie. Clooney and Farmiga work well together, and the story was really good. Brings up a few good points about lifestyles and such, and it was really entertaining.

                  On the "should see" list.

                      I am actually off to see this now, I have been surprised by some of the reactions from fanboys and reviewers it isnt nearly as ZOMG!!!1!!1!1! RDJ AZ TONY IZ DA GRATEST OF ALLZ TIMES!!1!11

                      And why wait til after the credits...just go on youtube

                      That reminds me though, I don't get this whole "lets put another scene after the credits" bs. It was cute for a couple minutes as a way to kind of have fun, but now like every movie does it so it has become beyond cliche. Here is an idea, put the scene in the movie so that way the people who paid 10 bucks to see your movie dont have to worry about seeing 8 minutes worth of credits...trust me they dont care who the key grip is

                            I usually watch until a commercial and then think, "**** that's a good movie, I'll watch it without these ****wit interruptions."

                              Its not like you got to watch the credits, you can get up, stretch, gather up your belongings, and if you want to be nice, your trash as well. maybe check your phone for messages and talk amongst your friends as well.
