Review: Larry Crowne

I honestly don't know a single person that doesn't like Tom Hanks. He's been in some of the best movies of the last 30 years, and so you'd expect his latest to be really good. Well...it wasn't. He co-wrote and directed it, which I thought would have been great like his last directorial adventure, That Thing You Do. The plot holes were the size of the college campus his character attended. It really wasn't very realistic. Was it funny? Yes. Was it cute? Yes. Was it cohesive? Heck No. 2.5/5 stars.

Review: Transformers 3

So, I'm a geek. If you didn't know that, then I have no idea how you found this blog because you obviously haven't met me. Was Dark Side of the Moon pure geek Nirvana? HECK YES. It had a beautiful leading lady (a huge step up from Megan Fox on the likability scale), the right amount of explosions, amazing special effects, and even the 3D was spectacular (I'm not usually a fan of 3D movies). The writing was so much better than the 2nd film. I loved this movie. Maybe it's just the kid in me, but watching this was an amazingly enjoyable experience. If you liked the first film, you will adore this one. 4/5 stars. Definitely a keeper, IMO.

Review: Cars 2

Overall, it was a great movie. When compared to the standard Pixar sets, it was awful. But, it was fun when compared to this summer's offering of lackluster entertainment. 3 out of 5 stars.
