60 Second Movie Review - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button



First thing's first, see this movie well rested and on an empty bladder. Not that it's borring, heavens no, but it is over 2 and a half hours long.
And it was absolutly wonderful. It recieves my vote for best drama of 2008.
Some of my favorite parts include one old man's reminicing
about getting struck by lighting, seven different times, and any scene with the tug boat captain.
Hands down the best movie you can see over Christmas break.

I give it:


Benjamin Button: My name is Benjamin Button, and I was born under unusual circumstances. While, everyone else was agin', I was gettin' younger... all alone

Valkyrie



Amazing,

I give it:


Col. Claus von Stauffenberg: I'm a soldier, but in serving my country, I have betrayed my conscience.

60 Second Movie Review - Yes Man

Yes Man



Very funny, your standard Jim Carey fare.

I'm not gonna lie, there are better movies this week and next, but this is what it set out to be, a good, funny, comedy.

I give it:


Allison: Are you stalking me?
Carl Allen: No, i would never do that.
Carl Allen: Oh by the way, the new furniture looks great from the yard.

60 Second Movie Review - The Tale of Despereaux

The Tale of Despereaux



A very nice, heart-warming story that was very well acted by the cast, it's been quite a while since I've seen or heard Christopher Lloyd.

A great X-mas movie for the whole family.

I give it:


Girl: Are you a rat?
Despereaux: No!
Girl: A mouse?
Despereaux: I, am a gentleman.

60 Second Movie Review - The Day the Earth Stood Still

The Day the Earth Stood Still



Do not try to compare it to the original as they have vastly different messages.
This one however, KICKED ASS and took names.

I Give It:


Klatu: If the Earth dies, you die. If you die, the Earth survives.

60 Second Movie Review - Punisher: War Zone

Punisher: War Zone



Awesome! Fully awesome. I had no problem with the Thomas Jane/Miami flick, even the Dolph pic in the 80s was OK, but this, this was beyond cool.

Ray was the right choice to play Frank Castle. Screw the critics, The Punisher doesn't have to be charming or witty, he is a cold, calculating
killer without mercy.

Can't wait for a Marvel Knights reboot of Daredevil.

I give it:

Priest: God be with you Frank

Frank: Sometimes I'd like to get my hands on God.
