PREDATORS(2010)

This is basically a direct sequel to the 1987 movie. They change some of the rules and have a couple of surprises too. Adrian Brody steps in nicely for Arnold as sort of an anti-hero. The characters have just enough development to get by on. It's a slow pace at the start, but worth the wait for the predators to arrive. This is a solid update from a classic 80's action movie. An enjoyable time at the movies for sure.

A group of humans all free fall and land on an unknown planet. They team up to survive and slowly realize that they are being hunted by "Predators".

I had a fun time watching this movie from start to finish. This is the only good sequel to the franchise. I'd at least rent this movie. It has some violence, so be aware of that before heading to the theatre.

TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE(2010)

The first two movies in this self proclaimed saga were laughable at best. Horrible story telling with a boring romance blooming. The latest installment is slightly better thanks to a decent last act. The first hour and a half are just as bad as the previous movies. Unless you're a fan of the books, I can't see how anyone follows this story at all? It jumps around so quickly and hopes the viewer has read the books. I wish they would flush out the story along with the characters from the beginning. The "Harry Potter" franchise has managed to adapt the books into great movies. This entire saga is boring and cheesy at the same time. The story starts to get mildly interesting at the end of "Eclipse". A little bit too late to make this an enjoyable experience.

Bella is still in the middle of the love triangle, but now there is a vampire army being formed to hunt her down. Edward and Jacob create a truce to protect Bella from the war that is about to take place.

Teens and people who have read the book will most likely enjoy this movie, but I don't know why. I can't recommend this to anyone else though.

THE LAST AIRBENDER(2010)

I can't believe how far an Oscar nominated writer has fallen. M. Night still has a great eye and makes some good visuals, but his writing has become laughable. He needs to hire some co-writers who actually write the dialogue in his movies. He just can't write people very well. The acting is really bad in "The Last Air bender" too. I will say that I did like it slightly more than most of the reviews out there. I understand why they shit on this movie, but it has a couple of redeeming qualities. I really enjoyed the action sequences and the idea behind this movie, but the dialogue put on screen is some of the worst that I've ever seen!

A brother and sister find the last air bender frozen after a hundred years of being lost. The fire nations hunts and kills anyone who has the ability of being that last air bender. He will bring balance to the world, but the Fire nation doesn't want balance. It's the first of a planned trilogy, but I'm not so sure this trilogy will ever get finished.

Kids will love this movie, because they don't care about acting or cheesy writing. I can't recommend this to anyone based on the movie itself. If you can put up with terrible writing than you might like this movie.

GROWN UPS(2010)

I have an idea for Adam Sandler's next comedy. How about making a comedy that's funny. His movies are all the same. They all stick to the same formula. Family fun and try for the heart warming ending.

"Grown Ups" has a decent cast, but no humor at all. It's an updated version of "The Great Outdoors". Sandler is at his best when he's goofy and doesn't try to make a family movie. His first two movies were silly,stupid, and didn't really make a lot sense. That's how an Adam Sandler comedy is supposed to be. There is nothing worse than watching a comedy and not laughing once.

An old group of friends have a reunion when there child hood basketball coach dies. This leads to the families all staying in a cabin and becoming friends again.

Unless you liked "Little Nicky", then I wouldn't recommend this movie to you. "I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul"if you did like "Little Nicky".

KNIGHT AND DAY(2010)

This is more of what summer movies should be. Some good action sequences and a little humor. Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz actually have some pretty good chemistry working here. Not the best action movie of the summer(A-team), but still has enough fun packed into a decent story. Sometimes the movie is too corny for my liking, but it's a fun and entertaining movie just the same. I was actually surprised that I enjoyed this movie this much. The story gets a little too twisty and in coherent, but it still served it's purpose.

Tom Cruise is an agent that goes rogue and Cameron Diaz is on the wrong plane. Mix in some action and a little romance and humor and there you have it.

This is a good rental for sure, but I'd mildly recommend this movie. It has just enough fun to enjoy it.

JONAH HEX(2010)

This movie looked like it could be a promising summer movie. It has Josh Brolin, Megan Fox, and John Malkovich starring in it. Not even a pretty face and two good actors could save this piece of shit of a movie! This was painful to watch. Never mind that the technical parts of the movie sucked. That's to be expected of much of the summer movies. This was just so terribly boring and stupid. It's only 72 minutes long and still found myself looking at the clock. Makes me wonder how bad the material was that got left on the cutting room floor. Story telling at it's worst and one of the more boring action movies I've seen in a long time.

Jonah Hex nearly survives death as he watches his family burned to death. He comes away from the near death experience with the ability to talk to the dead. He is then enlisted by the president to chase after John Malkovich(the man who killed his family).

"Sex and the City 2" and "Jonah Hex" are the two worst films this year! It's not even close. Do not watch either of these two movies. Unless you need something to help you fall asleep.

TOY STORY 3(2010)

Do not see this is in 3D! Another rip off!

Pixar has done it again. A great story with character we already know and love. They added a few new characters and it's a great way to seemingly end a terrific trilogy. I wasn't sure the story could make a third time around, but it's the best one yet! I didn't find myself laughing as much as some great Pixar films, but it's still got the same old charm. I really like how they included some things from the other two movies as well. The story really flows and keeps you interested until the final act. That's when it really takes off and is at it's best.

The gang is all back and worried about what will happen to them when their best friend goes away to college. They end up making their way to a day care center, where they must escape from the evil tyranny of toys that reside there.

This is a must see for everyone! One of the best films of the year. This will for sure be one of the contenders for my best picture award at the end of the year.
