a few current movies

invictus - i really enjoyed this movie, it was about a political leader and was zero political. it was about rugby and the world cup and getting africans to get along.. i think it had a really cool soundtrack and well morgan freeman and matt damon did ok with the accents and didnt distract me from enjoying the sport scenes

up in the air - i have really liked the last few Clooney movies, the Goats one was great and he is quite charming on screen.. in this movie he gives motivational speeches about a back pack and how if you fill it with too much life shit, it wears ya down.. that spoke to me, my new back pack is going to be just the essentials.. i am keeping it lite from now on.

lovely bones - hated every second of this movie, had to watch it in 3 parts just to force my way through it.. even more than the acting or the camera works, were the lame special effects of purgatory and a god awlful ending. I may never see another peter jackson movie again, this movie was so bad it actually took away from how good the lord of rings trilogy and district 9 were

time travelers wife - got about half way through and gave up
brothers - also couldnt finish it
precious - about 20minutes in i slit my wrist and had to stop watching it

the blind side - LOVED this movie... i am not sure why, it was a good flick, i felt good watching it, it was well made and i even bought bullock's accent, which i was sure i wouldn't

AVATAR - was pretty much exactly what i expected, it was special effects masturbation and a decent story , acting was beleivable enough and i like when the underdog wins, even though you know they are going to the whole time.. no surprises but not a waste of time

SHERLOCK HOLMES - a great set up for about 4 movies.. it was good, action was nice, robert downey jr is really untouchable the last few years in money making movies.. tropical thunder, iron man, this one, then next iron man... he is on fire folks!
