I haven't come across a thread like this...maybe I'm wrong.

Born from my facebook Movie List note, I realized I watch way too many movies...and I'd like to know what ya'll think of movies that you've seen.

Recently I saw "He's Just Not That Into You" and I hated it. Not all of it, but most of it...I liked the uptight wife who threw the mirror and then cleaned it up. But overall the movie was really not what I expected.

I expected it to follow the premise of the book, and I thought it'd be more of a chick-bonding flick than a sappy love story (or a few of 'em). The stories depicted proved the "exceptions" rather than "rule", which is what the book tried so hard to convey.

I also expected more from the Drew Barrymore character - I like her in movies and she fell flat in this one.

Thoughts? Movies?

An old old film - The Secret Garden 2.5

The Horsemen - 2

I've just gotta find some good movies to watch soon.......

AMC was playing Young Frankenstein this weekend. A classic! I give it a 4.

Movies....

This is It 3/5 I think his concert would've been something really great to see, although I wouldn't have gone, but the movie, not so much.

Paranormal Activity 3/5 didn't scare me, but kept my daughter's friend that went with us up all night.

Couple's Retreat: 2/5 been there done that movie. wouldn't pay to see it again so that explains the rating

Zombieland: 4/5 I liked it, but I am not sure why. LOVED the sequence where he gives the rules for zombies..

Julie and Julia: 4/5 Liked it enough to buy it when it comes out on dvd

Whip It 4/5: critics didn't like it, but I did. It was funny and entertaining. Besides, it's roller derby!

Fame: 2/5 I was mad I spent my money watching this since I will have to buy it on dvd because my daughter is a dancer. If you liked the original Fame, you will be disappointed. There is no character development to speak of. I really didn't care what happened to them or what happened at the end of the movie.
