Probably one of the best movies I've ever seen. This movie was great and I would definitely see it again. I recommend this to anyone.

You must not have seen very many movies.

In all fairness, I really haven't. I don't watch movies a lot.
I meant no disrespect, I personally didn't think this movie deserves all the 10/10's it's getting on this thread. Far from it, actually. It follows the basic Marvel formula and the story was meh overall.

Draft Day 4/5
I really hadn't planned on paying to see this in the theater until my mom called yesterday to see if I wanted to go see it with her and my step dad. So my cousin and I took them to see it today and we enjoyed it as any Browns fans will. The characters were believable and I liked the chemistry between Kostner and Denis Leary. The supporting cast was good and the fact that they actually filmed it all in Cleveland and at the team facility in Berea (suburb) made it that much better. And anyone who watched the draft last year knows they filmed all the Radio City Music Hall scenes then. The attention to detail went above and beyond, from them using real Cleveland sports talk radio personalities Tony Rizzo and Aaron Goldhammer of ESPN 850 AM to little things like names of real current Browns players on the nameplates in the locker room. And I thought they did a good job of illustrating the culture of Cleveland fandom. Especially the air of desperation that surrounds the draft every year. I liked it but it'll obviously never beat Major League in the lexicon of great sports movies. I see where it's received some bad reviews in the national press but they can eat a bag of dicks. The movie could've easily have been made about the Jets with thier histroy of abysmal drafts and the New York press woulda loved it. The only people I think may have a legitimate beef with it are Seahawks fans as they're the team he deals with the most during the movie.

Justice League: War (Blu-ray, 1st viewing) – It’s more or less an origin story for the heroes. There’s not a lot of story here, pretty much just 75 minutes of action. I’m not near as big into the animated features as I am the live action stuff, so keep that in mind when I say this didn’t do a whole lot for me. I know plenty of people love this stuff, but I think it may be time for me to stop buying these, as I just can’t see myself rewatching any of them, except for maybe Under the Red Hood, which had a lot more depth than any of these others. In summation: the animated features aren’t as accessible to fans of the movies, but ardent fans of the comics will surely find plenty to love here.
5/10
Duplicity (Blu-ray, 1st viewing) – I was caught off guard by this one. It popped up for $3 on Amazon, and considering the decent reviews and actors, I decided to pick it up about a month ago. It was much better than I expected it to be. Clive Owen and Julia Roberts are trying to pull off a caper involving a couple of large, highly competitive firms. Giamatti, Wilkinson, and the rest of the supporting cast are all great, too. There are plenty of twists and thrills throughout, and the ending really throws you for a loop. In summation: a hard one to categorize; plays out a little like a heist film with some romance and spy intrigue; worth watching if you’re looking for something a little different and cerebral.
7/10
Red Heat (Blu-ray, 1st viewing) – I like buddy cop movies, and though this doesn’t fail in any major area, it’s just too formulaic for its own good. Arnold plays the role of the Russian sent over to the United States to take a criminal back. Belushi’s not his brother, but even he’s toned down in this a little too much for his own good. I think the film would have been better served going for more of a comedy feel than a serious action movie, as neither star is really great in that dramatic of a role. In summation: Walter Hill and Arnold have both done better than this watchable, but often formulaic buddy cop film.
5/10
The Ward (Blu-ray, 1st viewing) – There’s some nice eye candy in this one, and it has a certain atmosphere that works in its favor, but it’s not that scary and you’ll see the twist coming long before you reach the end of the film. It seems like an odd movie for Carpenter to make his return with, as it’s pretty low budget and had almost a non-existent theatrical run. In summation: worth a watch for fans of psychological horror, but not much here you haven’t seen before.
5/10
Four Brothers (Blu-ray, 2nd viewing) – It’s one of those movies that works in spite of itself. The cast is good, but the concept is just so cheesy and ludicrous it shouldn’t work as well as it does. I’m a strong proponent that Markey Mark is one of the more underrated actors today (though he is getting a little more notoriety) and Hedlund, Tyrese, and Andre 3000 are all serviceable in their roles. In summation: doesn’t quite deliver the emotional punch it aspires to, but thanks to a likeable cast and plenty of action, it never fails to entertain.
6.5/10
V for Vendetta (Blu-ray, 2nd viewing) – I really like Alan Moore’s, The Watchmen, and though I haven’t read the graphic novel for this, I think the movie is pretty good. Hugo Weaving and Natalie Portman are both good in the leads, and the dystopian elements are fleshed out pretty well. I think it could have worked better as a series, since there’s quite a lot jammed into the movie. Not at my personal top tier for the comic/graphic novel adaptations, but definitely worth a watch. In summation: a strong adaptation of the source material, V makes for an intelligent action movie with some great dialogue.
7.5/10
Bait (Blu-ray, 1st viewing) – Looks like it’s going to play out more like that standard schlock you see on the Sci-fi channel, but it’s actually a decent movie. The plot is essentially a tsunami washes a couple of sharks into a supermarket, where 10 or so of the customers/employees are trapped. The concept is about the only outlandish part of it; from there it’s really just a struggle for them to survive and escape. It looks great on Blu-ray, and for a low budget picture, they’ve got some decent talent in here. There’s not really anyone big in it, but people who watch a lot of movies will recognize several of the actors from supporting roles in bigger films. In summation: not your typical shark movie thanks to good acting and likeable characters.

Excited for this one. I've always liked sports movies that focused more on the aspects outside of the game.

I'll give it a 10/10. Because to me, it was exciting, and despite its length it kept me interested. The graphics were great, and the whole storyline underneath was realistic, especially since the government could definitely do this in the future. So Marvel got that right.
Also, everyone has their own opinion about the movies we watch. Nobody is wrong for their personal ratings.

Insidious 2.. 5/10
Pretty disappointed with the second movie. The first one scared the crap out of me, but this one just made me laugh, because it was so pathetically put together.
