Went to see the Bourne Ultimatum at a matinee, not too crowded. I like the Bourne movies for the continuity, pace and scenery. Before that was the Al Gore Inconvenient BS. Don't care much for movie theaters... they're really fairly unsanitary. I might get to a movie once in a couple of years.

Just saw "District 9".

I like to see blow-em-up SciFi on the big screen.

All About Steve - Bullock is cute as ever, but I'd recommend you wait for the DVD.

Her movies don't seem to do very well. The reviews on this one are not very flattering either. I don't know if she is just not offered the right scripts, or she takes any part offered to her.

Marley and Me on Christmas Day, because my daughters wanted to see it. Don't go to theaters often; anything I want to see will be out on video soon enough. But really just don't watch movies much. Got a Netflix subscription and canceled it because we'd order three movies and keep them for a couple of months and never watch them.

I'm a single mom with not a lot of friends. If it's not a cartoon or rated G, I don't get to see it until blockbuster gets it!

So the last movie I think was G force. However, I really liked Coraline.

I just saw "Dorian Gray" last night, absolute rubbish. "The Picture of Dorian Gray" is one of my favourite books and the film completely missed the point. The book is extremely clever and subtle, the film wasn't, the main character was played by someone ( Ben Barnes ???) with all the acting skill and emotional range of a sock puppet, and the producers for some bizarre reasons felt they had to tinker with the story for mysterious reasons and "sex it up" with some of the most contrived and unsexy sex scenes ever made....

Oscar Wilde one of the world's greatest authors was obviously not good enough for the movie studios... A film which visually looked good ( except for the odd CGE of Victorian London which looked like a video game..) but had all the substance of a deflated souffle.


Once again style over substance. "Quelle Surprise".
I am starting to feel I should never go for a big budget film ever again, it is always such a big disapointment nowadays.
