My One & Only, Four Xmas, Angels & Demons





My One & Only is a shallow little flick, Four Xmas and Angels & Demons had better Blus than films.

Open Road, Sunny XMas, Is Anybody There





Open Road was boring, Sunny sucked, Is Anybody There was a hidden little gem of a Caine film.

STAR TREK!



Does not get any better - loved it!

Merry Gentleman, Franklyn, Goods





Merry was ok, low key initial direction for Keaton. Franklyn was a great little film on Blu that no one will watch, Goods was hilariously raunchy but drags towards the end.

Ballast



Saved this for a single post - wanted to put a long review out there but I have noticed that anyone who comments other than perfect for this film gets lambasted. Apparently this was the highest thought of film at Sundance 08, and reviewers across the board give this a rating of perfection....whatever. It was depressing, bleak, boring and uneventful to those outside the region it was filmed in - but the performances were solid. Not a valid Blu - but that is the way it goes I guess.

The Line, Marc Pease




Marc Pease was a boring pile of crap. The Line was ok - I would recommend it for those that love Ray Liotta or Trejo, otherwise it might get too convoluted.

Accidental Husband, Spread, Red Heat





Apparently some people out there feel Spread is some incredible film - but really it was just a soft core film for Ashton to bang away on...Accidental Husband once again shows the fire service in a completely lame film, and Red Heat turned out decent on Blu...It was so long since I had seen this that I forgot about Arnold being in the buff...again - he seemed to do that alot in the 80s.

Wings of Desire, Ugly Truth




Wings was one of the best films I have seen that no one will be watching - great Criterion. Ugly Truth was fun - Heigl looked as beautiful as ever...Gerard will keep the ladies happy.

Up, Command Performance, Hardwired





Up was outstanding - heck of a Blu deal with the 4 disc set. Command Performance was normal fare for Dolph- Blu sucked. Hardwired was a huge pile of shit. Skipper.

Paraiso Travel, Narrows, Not Forgotten





Paraiso was excellent, Narrows was very good and Not Forgotten is overrated.

Taking Pelham, Beth Cooper, Answer Man





Pelham is a great Blu, Beth Cooper sucks as a movie but has some good Blu references, Answer Man should keep you lightly entertained for the holidays.
