Julie & Julia - 7/10
A lot better than I expected. Xuan wanted to see this one since she's a
Food Channel addict. The parallel story of Julia Child and Julie Powell
kept my interest from beginning to end. Each of them in separate movies
might put me to sleep though. Hey, it's about blogging. It's about the
internet. So, that got me interested. And it wasn't boring, far from
it. It's got likable and charming characters. Afterward, I wasn't
checking out her blog in Salon.com. It's still there. It was so simple
- just a title and a bunch of paragraphs. I was wondering if she made
any money from the blog though. It doesn't seem like it. It seemed like
she only made money out of the book and movie deals. I was trying to
find out how many hits her blog was getting too. Nope, couldn't find
it. She has a lot of comments, though.
G.I. Joe - 7/10
I'm a Stephen Sommers fan. Being a fan of action movies, I like his
films the same way I like films from Michael Bay and Roland Emmerich.
They're just good at mindless action movies. G.I. Joe is like a 2 hour
live-action version of the cartoon, which is pretty much all I wanted
to see. It was action-packed. Whatever story it had to tell, it
randomly threw them in between action sequences in the form of
flashbacks. Yes, whenever you can't tell a decent story, or have no
idea how to tell it, just use flashbacks. The guy who plays Duke is a
pretty bad actor. But, who cares. Who has time to think that kind of
stuff, when you've got battles in sea, land, and air.
District 9 - 9/10
I can't believe the filmmakers were able to make this movie for just
$30M. It looked like it cost a lot more. It was intense. I thought the premise was original. It has realistic look and feel. The robotics at
the end were pretty cool.
