Josh Brolin was a pretty convincing G. W. Bush, but there wasn’t really anything in here that we didn’t already know. Come on Stone, either make a documentary or fiction, but not a little of both.

Frost/Nixon (2008)
January 14, 2009So I found out shortly into the movie that it wasn’t about freezing nixon for the future. But, it was still worth watching. I really enjoyed finding out that even ex-presidents drunk-dial people.

The Wrestler (2008)
January 14, 2009Marisa Tomei made this movie much more watchable. I really hope my wife/mistress looks like she does in her mid-40s. Or, I’ll just find a younger one.
And, what’s the deal with the daughter? Who wouldn’t want a pro-wrestler for a dad! Sure, if you don’t take out the trash , you get pile driver…but, it’s [...]
Defiance (2008)
January 14, 2009I got so bored watching this, I switched to playing Call of Duty. But, I kept thinking Daniel Craig was going to kill me when my team was the Germans. I really think he should just stick to bond movies.

Valkyrie (2008)
January 7, 2009Operation Valkyrie is in full effect! Actually, I think a more creative attempt at taking out Hitler would be for Tom Cruise to convert him to Scientology.

*Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008)
January 7, 2009I think Mallrats is still my favorite Kevin Smith movie, but this is the best comedy of the ‘08(despite the cookie-cutter dramady ending.) Seth is already very typecast, but he still makes me laugh. Elizabeth Banks’s char was simply adorable; hot girls with a personality like hers are pretty rare…but she could use bigger boobs(maybe [...]
Body of Lies (2008)
January 7, 2009Normally, I’m all about Ridley Scott movies, but this one wasn’t anything special. Russell Crowe’s char was boring, but DiCaprio (who looked more like Timberlake) was a pretty convincing field-op. It piqued my interest at the very begining, but I think I could have written a better ending.
