Daybreakers

2-6-2010
The Grand Theater
Good

This movie was creepy. It was scary, but not in a good way. It was scary in a "I'm going to jump out from a dark corner" sort of way. I find those kind of movies more annoying then truly scary. I don't like it when you use tricks, actually have the brainpower to write a convincingly scary story, and then get good enough actors who can truly be scary, not creepy.

The concept of the show was good enough, but it was too gorry. Not that I don't like gorry. Look at Zombieland, I loved the Gorry in that movie. However the Gorry in Daybreakers wasn't as effective.

Sorry to be such a bummer, but Daybreakers just didn't deliver for me. No wonder I was the only one in the theater. Private screening are kind of cool though.

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!
