A delightful combination of Oliver + Searching for Bobby Fischer
I only have one complaint about this movie...
WHY ISN'T IT A TRUE STORY!?
It's so perfect I just want it to be true.

Succinct and jocular movie reviews and ratings. Scores are out of 100. Ratings follow a red, green, yellow system. Green means I highly reccomend it, yellow means be careful and is typically followed by an abbreviated reason: violence, language, sexuality, or stupidity.

Star Wars: Clone Wars
I think I ad libbed cooler Jedi dialogue as a 12 year old with a homemade pvc pipe light saber than this movie spits out.
In fact, this movie begs the question: When will they stop making Star Wars movies geared toward pre-teens?
The answer: probably once George Lucas is dead.
However, there is some redemption in the battle sequences, and the creativity of the character design.
If you are absolutely obsessed with Star Wars, you will geek out about this preview 10X more than the movie itself.
Score: 65%

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
The acting in this movie is top notch. Seriously this is probably the first time I've watched Shia LaBeouf without thinking of Louis Stephens. Very dramatic movie.
I'm still wondering though... Was there a moral to this story? Tell me money isn't the key to happiness!
Wow and the music in this movie is bizarre.
Watch this movie if you want raw interpersonal drama, very little sexual content, and two plain as day F bombs. (one from Shia himself!)

Despicable Me
Funny and original. A refreshing re-invention of slapstick comedy.
Also a bit heartwarming.
When you watch this movie, pay attention to the reflections and the lighting. Illumination studios gets a high five for that.
Also, Gru punches a shark in the face.

Bee Movie
Absolutely nothing like what I expected and absolutely everything I hoped for. I laughed out loud at least 17 times.
However, the high energy humor gets to be a bit spastic. It can be slightly overwhelming, thanks to Jerry Seinfeld's "yelling talk". No worries though; just watch it again and you'll be catching things you didn't catch before.

"9"
"9" is a guilty pleasure.
Guilty, because it is like watching "A Bug's Life" taking place in 1946 Hiroshima, Japan.
Pleasure, because it somehow manages to be visually captivating while virtually using a brown and neon green color palette .

Rhyme or reason?
Is there rhyme or reason to this movie review site? If you said "no", then you're probably right. I just say what I think about movies I see. Why do you care? You're asking me! If you don't care, then tell me; why are you still reading? Do you really give a stroganoff about what movies I'm seeing and what my opinions are about if they are good? If you don't care, I don't see any reason why you should. So go back to facebook.
