Good lord Invictus is boring. Fantastic director, intriguing story, sports action--ought to be great. Really boring.

the short documentary that came with it was better than the movie.

Hitchcocks -Dial M for Murder - Not his best work. Lots of things to like in this movie -such as Grace Kelly and the noir aspects. But the mystery aspect was over the top with its cleverness - almost the entire movie was set in one room, and all the suspense was via conversation. There is one scene with the conspiracy setup that lasts about half an hour. No director could pull off such a convoluted deal. But still, it is Hitchcock.

Mann's The Man from Laramie Western with Jimmy Stewart. . Jimmy Stewart performance is good, but he's just not a cowboy, especially a cowboy with a death to avenge. Shot out in the NM high desert, so some cool scenery. It is not as good as their collaboration "the Naked Spur" It is entertaining enough.

Black Swan - The best movie I've seen in a while. Totally absorbing, psychologically intense and incredibly directed. The line between fantasy and reality completely [expletive] with you until the credits roll. Absolutely loved this movie.

Saw this today and I couldn't agree more.

Social Network - Well acted, well written and a good movie. Nothing to get excited about though.

The American - I loved this movie. Second best movie I've seen this year. Beautiful panoramas of Northern Italy, great pacing and well acted.

Lemmy - Documentary on the life of Lemmy Kilmeister. Obviously it was totally badass.

Finally saw Zombieland. I hate Jesse Not-funny-Michael-Cera Eisenberg. But this movie worked for him. As long as you aren't expecting anything plot-wise, it's a funny movie. The Bill Murray stuff was hilarious.

It's probably my favorite movie to hit theaters since There Will be Blood.

Saw the Social Network last night. I was hoping for a scene where Micky Ward made a random appearance just to punch Mark Zugglebooger in the mouth. Then I might give it a higher grade than Passable. I would upgrade it to a solid thumbs up if he punched the twins as well.

One good movie this year (Black Swan) and one great movie (The Fighter). Probably True Grit falls between the two, haven't seen it yet.

The Bill Murray stuff was hilarious.

Kabluey with Lisa Kudrow and Scott Prendergast. Most of the Lisa Kudrow movies I have seen are very good. This one is about LK's character dealing with life while her husband is in the army serving over seas.
