Seven Quick Movie Reviews
Reign Over Me
The movie was slow paced but it never got dull and the soundtrack and the whole mood of the movie was very indie which made it feel less mainstream and more artsy. I don’t usually like Adam Sandlers non-comedic roles but in Reign Over Me it suited him and Don Cheadle was also a great supporting actor.
The Good German
I love war movies and I was really looking forward to this one since it was filmed to look like an old black and white film. Problem is the story turned out to be weak. I still enjoyed watching it but not enough to recommend it. The movie stars George Clooney and Tobey Maguire. If you feel like watching a black and white movie get Vertigo.
Disturbia
A guy witnesses a murder and the killer finds out the guy saw him so he tries to kill the guy. A very cliché storyline and one that I hate.
Ocean’s Thirteen
This movie was wayyy better than the previous one. While Ocean’s Twelve was boring and starred Catherine Zeta-Jones, Thirteen stars Al Pacino and the whole story is based in fast paced Vegas. Lots of funny moments and the all star team of actors are all back minus the women thankfully.
The Bourne Ultimatum
Too many chase scenes, is that a problem? I know its weird but I found it exhausting to watch. I can’t imagine anyone but Matt Damon playing the role of Jason Bourne, he’s got this cold neutral robotic look that suits the part perfectly. On the other hand I could think of at least 20 other women who could play the part of Julia Stiles. Has anyone seen her in The Prince & Me? I have no clue why they couldn’t find anyone else…
Year of the Dog
How could they go wrong with a movie staring John C. Reilly???
Fast Track (originally The Ex)
Starring Zach Braff, Jason Bateman and Donal Logue, three very funny comedians from three different very funny shows (Scrubs, Arrested Development and Grounded for Life) so I was expecting this movie to be extremely funny. It wasn’t. The funniest parts I had already seen in the trailer and what was left wasn’t good enough. REALLY disappointing.

Are you kidding?! Ocean’s 12 is infinitely better than Ocean’s 13–it had a better cast, a better plot, AND the soundtrack was incredible. Ocean’s 13 was…OK…It was just too over the top.
But yeah, I’ve heard nothing but good reviews of ‘Bourne Ultimatum’. I need to watch that.

I didn’t give Bourne Ultimatum a negative review and even if I did my review isn’t based on “what did everyone think of this movie?”. Its based on what I thought of it.

Ocean’s 12 sucked balls. It was the worst one of the three.

Ocean’s twelve was bad except for the music!

Mark, The Bourne Ultimatum was awesome!! especially that fight scene with the Morrocan dude!

the bourne ultimatum was all chase scenes and fighting ones, but if you saw the two previous bournes, then u’ll understand that there is a story behind it. ocean’s thirteen sucked big time in my opinion.
