Me and Sentinel watched the movie Avatar. It lasted three hours and I liked how they had real people in this movie. The aliens didn't look like a cartoon they looked real. Fantastic graphics and this is one movie you should go and watch.

The other day we watched Sherlock Holmes. Hey! I stayed awake through this entire movie. It was interesting and had it's funny moments and full of mystery. I give this movie the thumbs up.

Yesterday we watched Alvin and the Chipmunks. It was a cute movie and from the attendance in the theater young and old were there watching this movie. I liked it and will give it an 8 on my scale.

I read reviews on the movie Nine I seen a few days ago and many people especially the critics stated that this movie was the worst movie they have ever seen. So please what ever you do, DO NOT invest your money into watching this movie.

The Book of Eli was a great movie to watch. Full of action and suspense.

The Spy Next Door is a good movie for adults as well as teenagers. Not so sure if kids under 10 should watch it due to the violent and language. Jackie Chan sure put on another great show.

It's Complicated. Now if you want to see old people making out this is the movie to go see. It had its funny parts and some parts I didn't care for. I will give it a 7 in my book.

Leap Year. This movie is for us girls who fall in love. Yes so romantic. Not so sure if you guys like that mushy stuff. lol

The Blind Side. Excellent movie to go watch. Sandra Bullock did an awesome job playing the mom in this movie. If you haven't watched this yet, then I recommend that you do.

Up in the Air. I like George Clooney but towards the end of the movie I was asleep. Yup that's how good this movie was, put me right to sleep...lol

I am woefully bad when it comes to watching movies but I did see The Blind Side and really enjoyed it. Then again, it was about football!

It was a very moving picture Darlin. About one mans life and how someone cared enough to help this young boy out.

Watched Valentines Day and as every movie goes the heartbreak of breaking up or getting hurt in a relationship. Also the joys of finding love with that special someone. This movie is geared towards woman.

Wolfman = Though absent from his ancestral home of Blackmoor for many years, aristocrat Lawrence Talbot (Benicio Del Toro) returns to find his missing brother at the request of the latter's fiancee, Gwen (Emily Blunt). He learns that a creature has links to an ancient curse turning people into werewolves when the moon is full. To save the village and protect Gwen, he must slay the bloodthirsty beast, but he contends with a horrifying family legacy. And we know who turns into a wolfman. The graphics were good and so glad he was able to get revenge at the end of this movie.


Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. Now if you have kids 9 years old and up, they would like it. Geared more to boys than girl movie. The gods of Mount Olympus and assorted monsters seem to have walked out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology texts and into his life. It was a good movie and hopefully in the future they will make more Greek God movies. Missed watching them when I was a kid.


Dear John = When a soldier named John Tyree (Channing Tatum) meets an idealistic college student named Savannah Curtis (Amanda Seyfried), it's the beginning of a true romance. Over the next seven tumultuous years, the lovers, separated. Of course they separate. I mean doesn't that usually happen when a man or woman go off to war. Their significant other finds someone else to be with instead of waiting for that person to come home from the war. Typical be..ach...

Tooth Fairy= Tess is a 6-years-old girl who is very disappointed when Derek (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) tells her that the tooth fairy isn't real. Derek is left to try and save the tooth fairy kingdom. Alright this movie is geared more to kids, but then it was silly enough to enjoy. Were a few funny scenes that made me giggle like when Billy Crystal threw memory loss in his face.


From Paris With Love= A low-ranking intelligence operative (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) working in the office of the U.S. Ambassador in France takes on more than he bargained for when he partners with a wisecracking, fast-shooting, high-ranking U.S. agent (John Travolta) Of course this was a good movie. John Travolta was in it. Fast action and well written with a few funny parts and liked the way these two actors worked together.

Edge of Darkness= As detective Thomas Craven (Mel Gibson) is investigating his activist daughter's murder he uncovers a corporate cover up along with government collusion that brings the unwanted attention of an agent whose job is cleaning up evidence of a crime. Very moving scene at the beginning of the movie. To see his own daughter killed in front of him. And the suspense of why she was killed made me interested and hoping that after Mel Gibson found the answer would kill the ass who murdered his daughter. Great movie to go watch.

When in Rome= An ambitious young New Yorker (Kristen Bell), disillusioned with romance, takes a whirlwind trip to Rome where she defiantly plucks magic coins from a fountain of love, inexplicably igniting the passion of those who threw them in: Ah yes another girlie movie. Teenage girls would love this kind of movie because as in all stories it has a happy ending.

You all have to go and watch PRECIOUS. Excellent movie about a young 16 year old who lives in Harlem and how she climbs out of the situation she is in with the physical and mental abuse she goes through. This movie is a true story. I give it a 10 on my list. :)


Watched Crazy Heart and if you like listening to Country and Western music then you'll like this one. Since I'm not to hip on country and western music I didn't particular care for this movie. It's about a man who is a singer that goes through some hard times in this profession. Only at the end does he clean himself up.
