Egg all over the place.
Last night I sat in on The Spirit, or as I like to think of it, The Sam Jackson as a Nazi movie. Awesome flick, I liked it a lot more than I thought I would, and I thought I was going to like it a lot. On a whole it kind of felt like Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow crossed over with Sin City, with Sam Jackson and other people. Yeah cool show, I can't say much more about it. . .OK maybe that it was "damn weird."

Robuts.
Last week I finally got to see Wall-E. Now while I might have thought this movie was some kind of Wal-Mart propaganda film, I was pleasantly surprised that it was about a cuddly little robot instead. Like most of the the Pixar movies I've seen, I enjoyed this one too. My favorite parts were the wackos and okay, when he finally holds her hand. Maybe I'm just a closet sucker for romance.

Two movies. . .
After one long day I decided to wrap it up with some movie watching. First one for this evening was Body of Lies. Cool damn show, but I need to watch it again when I'm not so tired and having trouble following the story because I keep dozing off at the most inappropriate moments. What I liked most, of what I could follow, were the wise cracks between Crowe's character and DiCaprio's character.
Then I decided to catch a midnight showing of Quantum of Solace, the new James Bone flick. I'm still not as ga ga over these new incarnation of Bond movies, but I liked this one more that I did Casino Royal. After watching this movie I now want to go back and watch Casino. . . again because this one added a lot more to that story. Of course the action sequences in these movies are brutal, which is always cool, but I think this gave a little more insight to the character. . .or at least the new incarnation of the character and why he's so vicious. Not ultimate movie material, but they're getting better.

Quick note.
I feel like writing something but don't have big movies to report on. So I guess I'll give a comment or two on the rented or recently bought movies I've watched recently. Halloween (Rob Zombie remake): It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. But I still like his music more than his movies. Street Kings: Kenau Reeves as an edgy cop? OK movie, not spectacular. Hell Ride: Um . . .no comment. Sleepy Hallow: I love this flick. As I said, not much to report on, I just felt like writing something.

Not too Payneful.
What can I say? Max Payne was an alright show. Nothing spectacular, and I was hoping for a somewhat richer story, but for a movie based on a video game, it wasn't bad. Of course my favorite part was the assassin chick in the trench coat. *meow* I don't know what it is about a woman in a black trench coat. . .or maybe I do. :) I know, I'm terrible.

*Yawn*
Well the other night I sat in on the movie Apaloosa, which was some kind of western flick with some cowboys and stuff. I don't think there was any pudding involved, but that might have made this movie a little more interesting. As it stands five minutes after I saw this movie I pretty much forgot that I even watched it. How lame. Maybe I shouldn't go to movies when I'm in a bad mood.

Gloom and Doom
So after a long wait, I was finally able to sit down and watch the movie Doomsday. Uh. . . yeah, interesting flick. What I liked about it, the mood. That apocalyptic aftermath/horrific fantasy vibe is pretty solid. What I disliked about it, the story. I think they could have spent a little less time blowing crap up and eating people, and little more time to develop things. The end seemed a little dodgy too. Overall, I liked the movie, and I was able to overlook those things that bothered me and just enjoy the chaotic, screwed up, and violent ride.
