Dark Knight Rises 7/10 Good action when there was action, but I couldn't get past Alfred sounding like the Geico Gecko, Bane sounding like Marvin the Martian on roids & Batman still has awful laryngitis. I might be being picky but when there's that much dialogue the characters voices should be tolerable.

My Best Friend’s Girl – I’m not sure if it was just because I was in the right mood, but I really liked this, and I’m not someone who usually gets into comedies. Dane Cook was much better as the asshole, than he was as the doting BF in Good Luck Chuck. I’ve never understood why Jason Biggs doesn’t accept more movie roles; I think he's pretty decent. Baldwin was also great as the raunchy, misogynistic dad. The scene with “When the Man Comes Around” was absolutely awesome. I rarely give it out 7+ to comedies, so that alone should speak volumes.
7/10
Heartbreak Kid – I’m a pretty big fan of the Farrelly Brothers, so it’s a mystery to me why I’m just now getting to this. It’s a decent little comedy, but at the time of this release, Stiller had settled into what I’m guessing is his character for the rest of his acting career.
6/10
Lockout – pretty cool sci-fi action flick, if a bit brief (~90 minutes). I would have liked a little more combat, and a better explanation as to what exactly was happening in the beginning. I don’t think they really intended viewers to think very much.
6/10
Stone – couldn’t really bridge the gap between good and great. It’s very well acted, but I had a real hard time taking Norton seriously. I thought it did a good job of showing how people who pretend to have faith, put up that façade.
7/10
Killshot – kinda surprised, as I didn’t expect much from it at all. It gets tiresome towards the end, but wasn’t really ever boring. If you’re a fan of Thomas Jane, Mickey Rourke or Diane Lane, you’ll see them at their best here. Gordon-Levitt was just annoying as hell. Diane Lane is aging gracefully, to say the least.
6/10
Employee of the Month – mehh, probably the tamest R-rated comedy ever. You won’t laugh much, and you’ll forget the movie completely within a week or two.
4/10
Stop Loss – way overacted from start to finish, and tries way too hard at way too much. I honestly couldn’t keep track of all the little sub-plots that began to crop up. Fake southern accents are also in attendance here, which is enough to warrant a low score.

Weekly recap:
Project X – I was able to live vicariously through this movie. I enjoy the found footage kind of stuff, so I thought it was a pretty decent comedy. The leads were decent, considering this was their first real big gig. It did get hokey towards the end, but that’s cool.
6/10
The Recruit – pretty average spy thriller. They throw every possible wrench into the gears throughout, making the whole thing seem a little pointless until the conclusion. I guess that’s what it’s like to be in the CIA, though. Pacino and Farrell make a decent pair. It’s really strange how dated movies from ~10 years ago feel.
6/10
Dream House – decent little side project for Craig. They were able to pool some talent for this one, but unfortunately the plot is very predictable and recycled.
6/10
Last of the Mohicans – I’ve given my family (who’s seen it) shit about the whole, “Stay alive, no matter what occurs” scene, but I stand corrected. This is a really good movie. It’s a great story, and the acting is on point from top to bottom. Mugua was a very solid antagonist, but boy did he get it in the end. If the book was a little easier to read, I’d definitely look into it.
8/10
Mission Impossible – I expected this 1995 release to be a lot more dated than it is actually is. I mostly just wanted to watch this and part II so I could move on to the more recent releases in the series. Some of the major plot twists were very obvious early on, but Cruise holds it together nicely. If I gave .5s, this would definitely be a 6.5. However, I’m going to round it down.
6/10
Lawless – Started a lot stronger than it ended. They built Forrest up to be this real rough and tough guy, but he just petered out towards the end. The stakes never really felt that high and there were just too many clichés for me to take it that serious. Still, they nailed the time period and I enjoyed the grittiness.
7/10
Mission Impossible II – A little cornier than the first one, but it’s still a pretty decent spy thriller. Much like the first, I think it’s aged pretty well, too. Zimmer composed another great soundtrack for this. I think part I had a slightly better story, too.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - 6/10 - I thought this was a pretty boring movie overall. The one thing I will score high on it, were the visuals in the movie. All the locations were pretty cool and a were visually appealing. Other than that, had a couple good chuckles but meh. Some scenes and dialogue just seemed drawn out more than they should have been. Also avoid seeing it 3d. Movie does not need it one bit.
