Fantastic Four
Five scientists get caught in some ball of light thingy that changes their DNA. The good ones become the Fantastic 4 while the bad one becomes Dr. Doom. Another comic book movie where I really know nothing about the comic books, so all the characters are new to me...
Syriana
Middle Eastern thriller about oil drilling and American big business. While watching this movie, it reminded me a lot of Traffic. There were a lot of story lines going on that were all related to the overall plot of the movie, but not all the characters interacted with one...
Elektra
Elektra from Daredevil is back and doing more martial arts stuff. This movie is very predictable, silly and induces much eye rolling. It explains Elektra coming back from the dead since she was killed in Daredevil. The explanation is very silly. Her character has now become obsessive-compulsive in order...

Harry starts to have dreams of Voldemort’s return and the Tri-wizard Tournament comes back to Hogwart’s after a 100-year absence due to it being too dangerous. Like I have done with all the Harry Potter movies, I read the book just before watching the movie. I know nothing about...
Team America: World Police
Creators of South Park have made a marionette movie about a group of Americans hell-bent on reducing world crime by going after terrorists with weapons of mass destruction. Yeah, so this movie sucked. I heard that it was hilarious and a witty, biting satire. I didn’t think it was...
