Wanted  (2008)

My main man choose this movie for us to watch on a recent Saturday night. I have to say that some parts reminding me of the Matrix, others of Fight Club, and maybe even a bit of The Professional. That said, I wouldn't put this film in the same category as those just mentioned. Even I love watching Angeline Jolie in kick-butt roles like this, the whole film just seemed to lack something. The action was entertaining...although at time unbelievable. The plot had some holes...and there was not a believable chemistry between Jolie and McAvoy. But perhaps if you are a dude and all you want is to watch an action-packed film, this one is right up your alley.

The Corporation  (2004)

Considering all the economic doom and gloom of current day, it's a bit hard difficult to watch this movie and not feel like everything in this world is going down the toilette. It is an interesting film though. I was a bit depressed afterward...and unsure of how I can help the situation.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall  (2008)

This was a pretty fun movie...although not funny enough to make it on to my all time best romantic comedy list. And I didn't know that you'd end up seeing all of Jason Segal multiple times...not a good decision to not keep the shot above the waist. I certainly did not need to see ALL of him....just kinda made me cringe. But then again...maybe Jason loves to be naked. I don't know. It was distracting....and not in a good way. Perhaps the best part was the Dracula Muppet Musical at the end. Now that was FUN!
