Ladykillers

I found this movie very odd. I don’t know how else to describe it. Guess I should have looked more closely at the fact that this is a Coen Brothers movie....

Ocean’s Twelve

All the people are back, plus Brad Pitt’s ex-girlfriend, and need to commit a robbery in Europe. I read the reviews about how it looked like the cast was having fun but didn’t let anyone else in on it. I thought the movie was pretty similar to the first...

Confidence

Confidence Starring: Edward Burns, Dustin Hoffman, Rachel Weisz Directed by: James Foley Written by: Doug Jung Rating: R Length: 1 hour 37 min Genre: Thriller Release Date: April 25, 2003 Edward Burns is a grifter and when one of his con jobs goes bad, he’s indebted to Dustin Hoffman...

Spider

David Cronenberg makes a crazy movie. What you say? I know it’s a shocker. This time a schizophrenic played by Ralph Fiennes is released from the hospital, but maybe he isn’t quite ready. Yes, I actually watched a movie with “spider” in the title, but there were no spiders...

Lost in Translation

Bill Murray plays an American movie star in Tokyo to film a commercial. Scarlett Johansson is an American tourist accompanying her photographer husband. The two meet in a hotel bar one night and start an unlikely friendship. I liked this movie. It moves at a nice slow pace. It...

I Spy

Eddie Murphy and Owen Wilson in the movie version of the old tv show. I see I was super clever in my description of the movie when this came out. This started on cable one day and we decided to watch it. It was more amusing than I thought...

Blade II

Wesley Snipes continues to kill vampires, along with a new threat–reavers. This was viewed after a Friday night of hanging with Marci. We went out drinking and then came back to the house and continued to drink. This movie was very much a blur for me since I was...

White Oleander

Girl’s mother murders her love and gets sent to prison. Girl gets shuffled from foster home to foster home. I didn’t like the book version of White Oleander that much. I heard that tons of changes were made from the book so I had a feeling that I might...

Anger Management

Adam Sandler is sent to anger management class and Jack Nicholson is his teacher. I wish Adam Sandler would start making funny movies again. All of this movies have the same theme and they really haven’t been as funny as Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore. This movie really didn’t do...

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

Sean Connery leads up the next-in-line comic-to-movie. This one is based on Alan Moore’s comic. It takes place in Victorian-era England with Allan Quartermain, Dr. Jekyll, Captain Nemo, Tom Sawyer, the Invisible Man, Mina Harker and Dorian Gray. This movie received horrible reviews and I was expecting a mess....
