Tron: Legacy

Ultimately, a watchable film with neat visuals and interest from a nostaglia point of view, but kind of lame otherwise. I think it was trying to be the next Matrix or something. Lots of odd pseudo-philosophical mumbo jumbo that never seemed to make a whole lot of sense to me. But, hey some neat action sequences, and nice to see good old "Flynn" (Jeff Bridges) again.

2.5 stars

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows - Pt 1

Yeah I agree with Neil on this. It isn't bad, but I kept thinking how much these Harry Pottermovies are just a re-hash of Tolkien, Lewis, etc. Lots of elements that are reminiscent of those earlier classic fantasy works.

The Town

Pretty standard heist film built around a love story. Didn't buy into the love story because it was unrealistic. Big problem for movie.

Two stars because it is not as bad as Jonah Hex.

Jonah Hex

I may have seen all of the good movies from 2010 already. This one had potential, but unfortunately just was not salvageable as even a B-movie. Ultimately, it is devoid of joy, and you actually find yourself liking the villains more. I'm actually writing this review during the last ten minutes of the movie.

On paper the movie could have been half-way decent. Malkovich as the bad guy, check. Setting is 1870's, and the main characters are all Civil War veterans, check. Elements of supernatural, and steampunk, check. Plot development, or any idea on how to create an actual story...Missing! I think that Playstation Western game I was playing has a better narrative to it with more character development. This one felt like an average video game, and a pretty bad movie.

One and a half stars out of five for the giant cannon that is in it.
