Pass the Popcorn

The Expendables: Starring every action movie star from the 80s and 90s. Heck, even Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dolph Lundgren get into the mix. Unfortunately, the movie sucks. Oh well. I watched it for pure nostalgia's sake.

Easy A: A fun comedy about a girl who pretends to be a slut because she's nice! If she were really nice, then she would have actually have been a slut. Aha! Just kidding. Regardless, this was a good one. It's a new spin on the high school comedy, and the entire cast did a great job delivering the punch lines.

The Other Guys: Mark Wahlberg plays his character a little too 'one note' but it holds up as a buddy cop movie. It won't blow your socks off, but it has enough laughs to make it worth your while.

Despicable Me: This was a great kid's movie. It has fun characters and good laughs, but most of all, it never gets too scary for the little ones. We bought it on a whim and are glad we did.

The Kids Are All Right: Annette Bening shines and Julianne Moore takes off her clothes again. The acting is great, but I don't know why it keeps getting Best Picture Oscar buzz.

True Grit: The 1969 original starring John Wayne, Robert Duvall, and Dennis Hopper is a classic, plain and simple.
