Amen brother, although I had to edit alittle of your sentence.
KRC1995: I will now have to make a mental note not to take your advice on movies. Nothing against you, but our tastes are way different. I hated True Grit and won't even consider watching Kings Speech. Loved Inception (a bit long though) and Grand Torino. I to am like you in some action movies. Hated transformers and the new James Bond movies are just horrible. Nothing about the new ones scream James Bond.
I to am a huge movie Critic but mine is all about the gore and horror. With that said, they do have to be worthy movies. Loved the new Friday the 13th but the new Nightmare on Elmstreet truly pissed me off.
Did watch Just Go With It and it was very funny. Haven't laughed so hard since The Hangover.
I see your point. I mean, I don't think those movies (the two I listed) are GREAT, (only really like HMIV for James Caan and the poker scene) but they definitely aren't on my favorites list.
Please share your knowledge of gore and horror movies. I love horror movies, but trying to find information on "good" horror movies (decent enough plot, actually scary, etc.) is kinda difficult.
Movie Reviews from this weekend:
I went into work both days and most of my friends were out of town so I was lame. Watched two entire movies (had seen both before).
Can't Buy Me Love: Young McDreamy buys a semi-hot chick, gets to hook up with hot 80s trim. Gets called out and sleeps in his garage. Bashes a school lunch table with a bat. Rides off into the sunset with first girl on his lawnmower. Grade: RAD - (mainly for: proves girls really can be bought, slutty 80s chicks, poop thrown on a house).
Cocktail: Young Tom wants to make it big, but is sidetracked by his somewhat profitable bar dexterity. Has a cool, British mentor. Sets up shop in Caribbean and deflowers a HOT Elizabethe Shue. Leaves Caribbean with rich, sorta MILF. Gets back with a pregnant Shue and takes over his uncle's bar. Grade: Cool + (mainly for: the awesomeness of Tom Cruise, my wanting to be in Jamaica right now, Gina Gershon asking for multiple orgasms).
