Shutter Island

8 out of 10. This film was confusing at times but the ending ties everything together quite nicely. The story moves at a steady pace with no slow parts where I would check my watch. There was a great twist at the end that I didn't see coming. Apparently I am not very perspective though because the ending didn't surprise my friends. Anyway, I thought it was a very fascinating mystery so if your into mysteries go see this movie.

Shutter Island

4 out of 10. although there was a certain sense of mystery, most people will figure out what is happening very early in the movie. just when you expect a twist to completely flip the movie, it never comes. i left the theatre disappointed. a movie designed to be ambiguous, mysterious, and confusing CANNOT end without a twist.

9 out of 10. the movie was amazing. the effects and graphics (watched it in 3d in the theatre) were substantially better than anything i have ever seen. like justin said in his review, the plot was perfect, with no holes. finally, i think this movie would appeal to those of all ages.

The Blind Side

6 out of 10. one of the best acting performances by sandra bullock. however, the movie lacked real emotion that would have been evident in the true life story of the football player.

Up in the Air

6.5 out of 10. a look at an interesting profession with a good performance by George Clooney and Vera Farmiga. well written (by Jason Reitman) story and dialogue. ending leaves the viewer without any sense of satisfaction.

2012

2.5 out of 10. acting was sub par. special effects (which were suppose to be the highlight of the film) were weak and outdated for what is expected today. plot/storyline wasn't completely unrealistic, but was executed poorly.

From Paris with Love

From Paris with Love: 6 out of 10. This movie was chessy, cliched, and predictable but it was also funny and action-packed. I had alot of fun watching this movie. It was about two special ops. agents working for the U.S. government trying to takedown a terrorist cell. This movie stars John Travolta and Johnathan Rhys Myers who are believable as government agents. This movie was a mindless popcorn movie and I liked because of that because I like a good popcorn movie every now and then. If you're in the mood for mindless action I recommend this movie because once in while everyone is in the mood for a good popcorn movie. I do not regret paying 8 dollars to see this movie. This movie is rated R for strong violence and pervassive language. Have a great time at the theater. Jsmit

Avatar gets a 10 out of 10 because it is the the most perfect movie I have ever seen. It's special effects are the most amazing thing I have ever seen. There were no plot holes and the storyline while pretty close to Dances With Wolves is fascinating. You with not want this movie to end or at least I didn't. I went and saw this movie twice so it must be an awesome movie. I think I said Enough so I'll just say goodbye and happy viewing.
