Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
LOVED IT!
Excellent flick for fun-lovers and kids-at-heart. Punny jokes abound in this original story - some great voice talent by a variety of actors and creative animation and cinematography.
Law-Abiding Citizen
Liked it.
Not for the faint of heart. You'll find yourself rooting for Gerard Butler's character... so much so that the end may disappoint you. This movie featured fabulous momentum and talented actors... but ultimately, I expected more than what was delivered in its final moments.
Moon
LOVED IT.
This was a surprising love for me. While this is a sci-fi movie, it also plays out as a mystery. Your brain will be scrambling to try to figure out what is going on as you watch the plot unfold, and I doubt you'll be able to foresee a few twists!
Battle for Terra
Pass this one if you can.
Not as great as it could have been.
This Fern-Gully-type flick took FOREVER to get going and had some serious problems... the alien people seem to be able to float and fly when they want to, but they also experience near-fatal falls from mid-air. Too many other additional issues to get anywhere close to a thumbs up.
Zombieland
FABULOUS!
With a witty Fight Club-style narrative and accompanying graphics that give you insight into the main character's head, this zombie movie does not fail to please. I'm not a huge fan of scary movies, but this came movie came with a hefty serving of humor. It was more suspenseful than scary! A new classic in my books. :)
We've rented a few more that we'll probably watch at some point this week.
xxoo!
