"I wanted to like this movie. I really did. I enjoy the cast, especially John C. Reilly and Jenna Fischer. I generally like work comedies--but I couldn't find anything to laugh at. Did I just miss something? The movie went on and not even once did I see something that even made me giggle. Maybe I'm just used to these actors in different roles, maybe I was expecting different. They didn't seem to have much to work with though. Even in terms of cinematography, there was nothing too spectacular. I guess what I'm trying to say is it was just more bland than anything for me. Average. Nothing memorable, nothing quotable, nothing to tell people about. Probably not as lame as my title, but you know...that's OK. I'm not a professional. "

Top 5
"1. 2001: A Space Odyssey- I'm surprised not to see this one on more lists. I've had several film classes and every single teacher has showed this film. Every one. Now, I'm not a sci-fi fan. So I'm already at a loss. But I just didn't think this was one of the best movies. Yeah, the special effects were great for it's time and it's good as an art film. But it just didn't grab me. One of the things I like in my films, serious ones anyways, is to have some sort of connection with the characters. Whether I hate them or love them, and I just didn't give a crap about Dave. The scenes were too drawn out and there wasn't enough plot for me to pay attention to. Or at least it went over my head all 8 times I've watched it. Again, I love Kubrick. I just couldn't get into this movie. 2. Titanic- Oh boy, not only did this movie make the Celine Dion song that I still hear to this day popular, but it's also the reason people still say "I'M KING OF THE WORLD!" Now, the Titanic is actually a pretty ... "

"Visually, there's no denying that the Wachowski's were on to something. The movie was a smorgasbord of colors. In fact, I think they might have even invented some new colors for it. But I've seen critics review this movie who figured out one reason it didn't do so well at the box office. The Wachowskis do experimental films on a big budget. They aren't going to make back the money that they spend on the film. I also don't know that people really gave it a chance. They automatically assumed since it was a live-action anime series it'd be bad. Heck, I thought so too. Especially as a Speed Racer fan. But really they pulled it off. It was rather true to the series. Cheesy? Yeah. But so was the original series. My biggest disappointment was the fact that they only wore the original costumes for a short period of time. And that they added the Mach 6. But I think the cast was fantastic, they all did a great job. Especially John Goodman as Pops Racer. He is Pops. And I loved the homages to ... "

"Here's the thing, if you're like me, then there's a chance that you might enjoy bad movies. Not necessarily because you think they're good. Oh no. Because there's a certain comedic appeal there. If that's you, then yes. See this movie. Especially for Corey Haim's performance. I mean, does Interview With a Vampire even bring up the touchy subject of vampire BO? No. Twilight? Maybe, I haven't seen it yet. Don't rent it expecting Lost Boys. And don't rent it expecting much. We all know the plot isn't groundbreaking Oscar material. The other cast members aren't really famous and it shows. No offense to them, I can't do much better. But that's why I watch movies. Not much emotion shown at all. Cinematography isn't bad though. Neither is the soundtrack. Go in expecting to see a B horror movie, and you might not be disappointed. "

"This is one of my favorite movies of all time, I wasn't expecting much out of Will Ferrell because I normally see his movies to see stupid comedies but he really did pull off the role of Harold well. The story was not only an original screenplay which you don't see much, but it was good. I love how everything and everyone was connected to each other and I actually felt for the characters for once. I'm not an emotional person either. Great dialogue, great acting, great cinematography. I loved the special effects from Harold's watch, they were simple but not the usual effects you see every day. Yeah. I definitely think people should watch it. "

"First of all, I'm a fan of the books. So that may make a difference. But this trilogy is fantastic. It may be a little slow at times. Especially in the second movie which was my least favorite because of the Ents. But all of the actors did a great job not to mention the gorgeous cinematography which I could look at all day. Everytime I watch this I find something new. Whether it's a camera angle I didn't notice, or a different facial expression. Definitely a must see for fantasy fans. Even without Tom Bombadil. "
