    Elephant  (2003)

    this movie can be looked at in two ways, in my opinion.

    if you look at this for some sort of entertainment, you will, without doubt, hate it. it's very slow paced and drags on. it likes to showcase the really boring parts of a person's  life like walking alone down a long hallway of a school. 

     if you look at it from an artistic point of view, it's beautiful in that it tries to capture real life under abnormal circumstances. 

    anyway ... all the while i was watching it, i kept thinking to myself: i paid 4 bucks for this, so just sit through it. 

     and what's on the DVD cover is true. this movie is unforgettable ... whether that be in a negative or positive sense of the word.


  • it is worth watching

    From the Terrace  (1960)

    if you love classics like i do, then you should take the time to watch this movie. some parts can be drab and boring ... however, the movie touches you and ladies .... paul newman is breathtaking. yep ... :)

  • pretty scary ...

    Stay Alive  (2006)

    i would not recommend watching this movie at night, right before you go to sleep, or alone. it's pretty scary .... not so much the killing, but the crazy old lady spirit!

  • pretty cool.

    Disturbia  (2007)

    i honestly really liked this movie. i didn't expect it to be as nice as it was. if you're a teen, you may like the sort of love story intertwined within the plot. as well as shia's crazy/cute little asian friend. but if you're annoyed by that kind of stuff you may find yourself saying, "get to the point!" every now and then. but overall, i liked the movie and i would probably watch it again in the future.

  • this wasn't supposed to win an oscar.

    Transformers  (2007)

    the acting isn't supposed to be oscar-worthy. this isn't a "deep thought provoking" movie. it's not an indie film. it's supposed to be a summer block buster action film. that's what michael bay gave you.  there's lots of action. it's funny ... and it is somewhat heartwarming. the movie made me want to have a transforming piece of metal for a friend. honestly, the movie did it's job and it's worth watching ... unless you're cynical, don't find anything funny, or just have a stick up your caboose.
