The Book of Eli

This was a bad-A## bible movie! Although it was a little slow at the begining I loved the idea of the bible being the most sought after and powerful book in the world. I loved the idea that Eli's mission was to protect it at all cost and deliver it to a place where it would rebuild the world. I loved how no weapon formed against Eli was able to prosper, and I loved then end when you found out....



Yeah right like I'd ruin it for you! Go see it yourself!


Sure the details are a bit peculiar but I have a rule for any movie that has anything to do with the end of the world. That rule is: Don't focus too much on the details, if you do you're focusing on the wrong part of the story.

So go get some religion, some hard core religion, and fill up your violence quota all in one night!

Seven Pounds

1/2/2009 The Grand Theater Good Why was it called 7 pounds. This movie could have been excellent. It had great acting. The storytelling was the problem. It's annoying because you don't find out the whole story until the very end. That's ok if what we find at the end is something amazing, or shocking. Something like "Seven" "Fight Club" "Sixth Sense" They had shocking ending which made not knowing what's going on worth it. 7 pounds wasn't worth it. It was about redemption, however the main character didn't need redemption, he himself suffered great loss, and those he helped were random and unconnected to those he hurt, accidentally. If they were somehow connected, then maybe it would have been better. If maybe there were no clues given it wouldhave worked better. The clues were given throughout the film, and you can piece it together yourself. The problem is you're not surprised by the ending you've been waiting for, yo...

Green Book

Green Book AMC High Point 8 Superior This was a great movie. It made you laugh, it made you cry. It was a really interesting look at a topic that's been looked in to many times. Even though the theme was the same, this movie felt fresh and original. I can fully support this movie for Best Picture.

The Reader

2/16/2009 The Grand Theater Excellent Where is the press on this one? What a great movie. Very sensual, if you're uncomfortable with naked people, this one isn't for you. There's a lot of naked. There was so much involved in WWII it's amazing how many stories can come from it on all sides. Great acting, go see it!
