Summer Movie Tally and ammendments to my wish list!
So here's what I saw from the original list:
Star Trek - I still need to see it again.
Every Little Step - my full review thereof.
(500) Days of Summer - I was impressed. I thought it was going to be way loserisher but it was pretty excellently executed! It really is the Annie Hall for generation Y.
Year One - poor Year One! It could have been soooo gooder.
Whatever Works - Whatever! It's Woody! Patricia (Clarkson) was amazing in it.
Angels & Demons - so bad it's good.
Bruno - no one can touch Sacha.
Harry Potter 6 - so psyched to re-read all the books again.
Away We Go - the critics were way too hard on this one. It was clearly Sam Mendes's best film, and that's because of the script by Dave Eggers. However, as the Poetry Man put it, at it's best, it was better than (500) Days, but at its worst, it was indeed worse, due in large part to Sam Mendes's corniness and lame soundtrack. He seriously doesn't know what he's doing with regard to pacing; I feel like he does it just to seem arty.
Movies I saw but weren't on the list:
Drag Me to Hell - and glad I did - look at that average! I was truly impressed. This is destined to be a cult classic.
The Girlfriend Experience - awesome film.
The Hangover - I loved it. Zach is my new love due mainly to this video.
Additions:
Julia - yay Tilda!
Cheri - I'm sorry but I love Michelle Pfeiffer.
The Hurt Locker - looks so intense I'm kind of scared to see it.
Moon - decent reviews + Bowie Jr. + scifi + Sam = good enough for me.
Off the list:
Public Enemies - it's probably okay, but at this point it's just not doing it for me. Kind of just looks like a star vehicle at this point.
Still need to see:
Tetro - Francis Ford and Vincent Gallo are dear friends of mine.
Up! - I KNOW DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED, IT'S NATALIE'S FAULT.
