Great visuals, great animation with decent plot and characters but that singing. Oh, how lame. I am sorry for the fathers who have gone through that songs multiple times. Especially Stoked, 3 daughters. Damn.

7.5/10 from me.

I have a majority of the songs memorized. They are, in order of request frequency: "Let It Go", "Do You Want to Build a Snowman", and "For The First Time In Forever". On first viewing I thought it was a great movie, funny, touching, and pretty cool with the whole girl saves herself without (a lot of) male assistance. On repeat (REPEAT) viewings I noticed that it kind of sucks.
Tangled is way better guys. It has better songs, better humor, and there's an animated midget cosplaying as a cupid baby. Besides, Maximilian the Horse is more bad-*** than Olaf the snowman, Sven the reindeer, and those two crossbow dudes from Weselton combined.
 
Just watched Homefront. Loved it. Statham's great and Franco who usually sucks imo (minus 120 million Hours) was surprisingly quite good. 8/10.

But this post isn't about that. I just started mindless movie #2 for the night, Rage with Nicolas Cage. And I post this not to tell you to see the movie but to tell you to read the bottom of Rage's home page on imdb where there is one of the best (i.e., most hilarious) movie reviews ever by some imdb user named manvanmusic.

Just scroll to the bottom of the link and read the only user review there.
 
Ah screw it, here's the review for Rage. It's by some imdb user manvanmusic who deserves a Pulitzer for this. Here goes...

"This movie is fantastic - honestly, it's shooting up my 'So Bad It's Good' charts with a bullet (badoom-tish!)

I have no idea why Danny Glover's character is in it. Feels like he phoned someone and said, 'I need fifty bucks and I'm free on Sunday. Anything going down?' Peter Stormare, whilst generally good fun in crap flicks, is so utterly miscast it's borderline genius. What's that accent Pete? I can't tell if you mean to sound like a Canadian with palsy, or you were battling some gastro/intestinal thing, but damn bro, you sound pretty crook.

Cage with his helmet or hair or whatever that thing is on his head is brilliant. Injecting heartfelt emotion into scenes that don't need it, screaming in new and obscure ways, playing it cool after trashing 20 corpses and fifty cars, he just injects a well-needed shake-up on traditional acting. Let's be completely inappropriate and flip between ham and wood - hello Oscar!

Script has the bones of something in it, but the director has taken a leaf out of Cage's book here - let's not polish the turd, but rough it up some. Camera-work is just dire, dialogue makes the idea of a four-hour cunnilingus session on an angle grinder sound appealing, and seeing as Glover already took fifty from the budget, it left only another fifty for the rest of the film. And let's not forget such a momentous closing scene. Never have I cheered so hard for Cage. Top work fella, and the right choice.

I can't honestly ask anyone to sit through this utter tosh, but I do know I'll watch it again in the future, with a bottle of vodka in the wee hours, and laugh my *** off."
 
Idiocracy. Finally watched it after years and years of hearing people reference that as what we're heading towards. Was pretty funny. Might have to add it to the collection.
 
Just bought edge of tomorrow and watched it this weekend. Wanted to see it in theaters but date-nite miscues multiple weeks running kept us from seeing it.

A+.

Not because it's mentally stimulating, but just because it's ****ing entertaining. Funny and exciting.


AND I JUST NEED TO ADD THAT THERE IS NO OTHER HUMAN WHO EXCEEDS THE DICHOTOMOUS NATURE OF EMILY BLUNT.

Ugly as hell in all still pictures, but gorgeous as **** in all moving ones.
 
Saw Lucy. It was a good fun movie, but nothing super special. I liked it. Wish it had ended differently, felt like a cop out.

7/10. Solid flick. I recommend it. The acting was strong from all involved: Gyllenhall, his sidekick, Russo, Paxton. The cinematography was very good, especially during the opening credits. Michael Mann would be proud of how sexy Gilroy painted L.A. I liked a lot of the camerawork. My major issue with the movie however was the script/presentation. In essence, it's a satire but for most of the movie it never really feels that way. It feels like JG is just some ****ed up dude but by the end, we know the movie's more than that. For this reason, it felt off to me, unlike say American Psycho which quite obviously we knew was a satire from the first few minutes.
 
How to Train Your Dragon 2. Great flick maybe better than the first. I hope they keep making films in this universe as long as they keep the writing at this high level.
 
Just finished this recently:

Weird ****ing movie. I can see why it created such a stir when it was first released. The ending scene is rather disturbing. Anyway, I thought both Theresa Russell and Art Garfunkel were ****ing great in it. Keitel, not so much.
 
Saw Nightcrawler.... didn't care for it
