Rock Me Sexy Jesus!


The song "Rock Me Sexy Jesus" is still stuck in my head after seeing Hamlet 2. I don't have time to write much so I'll keep it short. Hamlet 2 is hilarious end of story. Steve Coogan is a genius, also I'd like to mention that "I really think it's sexy when he kicks Satan's ass"

Tricky Cristina Barcelunder



Yes... I saw Tropic Thunder (FINALLY) and Vicky Cristina Barcelona. Let's start with Vicky Cristina Barcelona. This is one of the best Woody Allen films I've seen in a while. The best thing about it is the performance by the amazing Penélope Cruz who is so funny and crazy. The plot is completely absurd and ridiculous. To sum up the plot, everyone loves the fantastic Javier Bardem, Penélope Cruz and Scarlett Johansson are also in love. Rebecca Hall is married to this guy but she really loves Javier Bardem. It pretty much sums up to a very funny and moving film. Also, I saw Tropic Thunder, I don't want to say too much about this movie because I don't want to give away the sheer hilarity of it. This is one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long long time, it also features some great suprise cameos and as you know Robert Downey Jr. playing a guy acting like a black guy.

IMAX

I saw the Dark Knight in IMAX, the visuals were amazing but they can sometimes distract from the scene. I suggest seeing it in the cinema before IMAX.

Pineapple Express Review


I saw Pineapple Express tonight... it opened today to mixed reviews! I won't go into the plot because you may have noticed I don't like to do that because you can find that on any movie website, I'm here to tell you if you should see it. To get to the point, I loved this movie. It perfects the now common "dumb" comedy genre. The best part about it is the action sequences, they are so absurd and over-the-top you can't help but laugh. The dialog is also hilarious.

Mamma Mia! and Schedule Updates


I spontaneously saw Mamma Mia! tonight, what a mistake, I loved the show but this movie was simply strange. Many of the dance moves and characters' motivations confused me. Also, Pierce Brosnan simply can't sing.

Mamma Mia!- 1 out of 4

Also, I can't see Tropic Thunder on the 13th because I have plans, so I'll see it on the 14th.
