    Exclamation

    Fantasic Four: Rise of The Silver Surfer 9/10 It would get a 10/10 except for two things: Galactus is not portrayed exactly right, and it's ambiguious about what the Surfer's punishment for defying him is. (In the comics since he decides to help save the Earth, Galactus binds him to the planet, he can no longer surf space. He still has all that power, however, enough to take out anyone, even the Hulk.)

    Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer......I fell asleep during the movie...The part where I was awake I give it a 2/10.

    The weekend's films for me:

    1. The Importance of Being Earnest
    Oliver Parker

    To be clear from the outset, my opinion of this film will inevitably be influenced by the fact that I've so far not been terribly impressed with Oscar Wilde - probably largely owing to my distaste for satire in general. The movie clocks in at 94 minutes, and I cannot say the brevity bothers me. It's a clever story, in its way, but it's never felt very substantial to me. Colin Firth does a decent job as John Worthing - apparently the only intelligent character in the thing. I know the audience-sympathy strictly for Worthing is part of the play and all, and that the supporting characters are supposed to feel like plastic (or I at any rate sincerely hope, for the sake of this film, that this is intentional), but I have to say I got pretty annoyed when it seemed that Worthing was the only one who ever actually meant what he was saying - save perhaps for Judi Dench's character: stupid as she was, she seemed to have real conviction, which was probably the most comical thing about the movie. It's just not really all that fun to watch; some of the dialogue is rather funny, but this film - indeed, the play - really does not require the use of one's brain, save to keep up with the ridiculous name-switchings and other plot-related things. In light of my aforementioned prejudice, however, I will try not to be too hard on the film. I will say for it that it succeeded in giving me a very similar impression to that given by the play - which one may or may not consider a good thing. A decent adaptation.
    7/10 (with perhaps an additional half, because Frances O'Connor is really hot in this movie...)

    2. Blue (or, Bleu)
    Kryzysztof Kieslowski

    This is the first film I've seen by this guy - who I guess is actually quite well-known elsewhere (native Poland and so forth). I was very impressed with this thing. It actually lasts roughly as long as "Earnest" but, though I might have liked it to go on a little more (for such was the joy I experienced viewing this), the length is exactly what it needs to be. It's about a period in the life of a woman (please don't misinterpret that ) after her composer husband and their daughter die in a car accident, as she and an associate of her husband set to work on finishing the latter's unfinished final piece. As I cannot comprehensively opine the interest in this film, I will simply enumerate a few things and rate it: the cinematography is bloody gorgeous! There is, as you might well infer, a good deal of the color blue in this movie, and it is a very deep, pretty blue. Also, Juliette Binoche is extremely impressive as the widow in question. There is not a terribly large amount of dialogue in the film, but she communicates very well. The music is really cool as well (for those into classical music). Unlike the above, this film most certainly requires thought, which is always fun. It's the first in Kieslowski's Trois Couleurs trilogy, the other two of which (Blanch and Rouge) I will have to see now. *gives thanks for Netflix*
    I want to talk more about this thing, but I dread giving anything away. I insist - watch it!
    10/10 (with perhaps an additional half because Binoche...well, see the above review... )

    EDIT: It is, however, in French, which some people might not like.

    Evan Almighty - if you've seen the commercials for this movie, you've seen all the best parts. No surprises. Save your money and see it when it comes out on cable.

    5/10 (4 of the 5 are for the special effects and in acknowledgment of the fact that they used real animals wherever they could instead of CGI)

    The Hitcher. Well the new one anyway. I would have to give it 7/10. I was pleasantly surprised by the movie and though it was pretty good. I would watch it again, but not too likely to buy it.

    That film was hilarious.. You can't watch it for the horror because it doesn't have any and the cheesy lines are just an uproar. I love the fact that there is mild profanity (unlike the pervasive f-word lines omnipresent in rudimentary cheap horror thrillers like the Saw trilogy) and that each actor is so miscast that one can't help but giggle like a cluster of sorrority girls in a room after a late-night dance.

    The funnies quote went along the lines of:

    The Cop: Goddammit! I'm dealing with official police business here.. step back!!

    The antagnostic prick: Well Hell!! So am I!!!

    ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!! i LOVE THAT PART SOOO MUCH.

    Thanks for posting your opinion...

    Fracture. Pretty good, interesting court drama. Points off because the protagonist's quasi-girlfriend was just not that attractive, lol.
    8.5/10

    Miss Potter -- very well-acted. If you don't expect too much, you will find this a very fine film. Zellweger does an excellent job.

    I would give it a 7/10 for the idea and all, but it gets 6/10 because, overall, it's a bit... dunno... cheap-looking...? Kind of slow. But overall, I liked it.

    The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer

    Meh, the theatre has air conditioning. So that was fun. I don't know, that type of movie isn't really my thing, the man wanted to see it...although we both thought it was kind of corny. Did I mention the theatre has air conditioning? 5/10
