Iron Sky

So the Nazis went to live on the moon after the war, and now they are coming to attack Earth.
Two Space Nazi thumbs up for being EXACTLY what it sounds like - including a black man who got turned white.

The Dictator

Meh.
One thumbs down.

Failure to Launch

Working out the Bradley Cooper movie timeline.
One thumbs down - Sarah Jessica Parker or Matthew McConaughy are crap.

The Avengers

Three - the number of times I dozed off (morning blockbuster?!) and the number of times Yvonne cried.
Half a thumbs up, but also half a thumbs down for the ridiculousness that is Thor's hammer.

The Thin Red Line

Shallot Pancakes 2.0
Half a thumbs down? - eh, I wasn't really watching - but it reminds me that history is a huge gaping hole in my general knowledge.

The Royal Tenenbaums

When I first watched this I thought the brother-adopted sister thing was disgusting - but this time I thought there was a sickly sweetness to it all... have I become gross?
One and three quarters thumbs up plus more for the fantastic outfits worn by everyone (notable shoutouts to Gwenyth's fur coat, and Owen Wilson's leather fringed cowboy jacket)

About a Boy

I once bet my dad $100 that 'Killing Me Softly' was originally sung by a woman - he never paid me.
One and a half thumbs up, maybe plus another half thumbs up too.

Sleeping Beauty

Slow, boring movie with an apathetic pale main character and old men.
One and a half thumbs down, and extra thumbs down for not expecting old man dick even though they have a nudity warning.

The Truman Show

Was going to watch another movie but then got sucked into this.
Two thumbs up, but also a strange realisation that my life is not interesting enough for me to be the secret subject of a reality show - unlike the occasional fear that I've imagined all my friends and family (a la A Beautiful Mind)

Never Been Kissed

Tee hee... this is always a fun high school chick flick to watch.
One thumbs up, but also shock because I just channel flicked and found out there is a telemovie about how Kate Middleton and Prince William met... whaat/!

Bruno

That was just, well just gratuitious offensive wow.
One and a half thumbs down for not having the heart of Borat - just an unnecessary amount of dick and anal.

Bill Cunningham New York

Literally laughed out loud for the former UN ambassador to Nepal standing next to his extravagant wardrobe - 'so uh, this is my alphabet outfit... this er used to be my old sofa... this is my ottoman'
Cool kid thumbs up for the most adorable old man.

Our Idiot Brother

Zooey Deschenal and Rashida Jones make a hot lesbian couple - but then so does Hugh Dancy.
Only one thumbs up?

Hitman

Phil was so excited for it he RAN to the door not to miss it.
Zero thumbs up - it is no good at all - much like how blogger had changed their format and it looks too fancy for this blog now.

Pulp Fiction

'You know you've found someone special when you can just shut the fuck up for a minute and comfortable enjoy the silence'
One and a half thumbs up plus a bad motherfucka wallet.

Bridesmaids

Kristen Wiig speaks a bit too softly.
One and a half thumbs up - a little bit less than last time because this version had some extra unnecessary scenes, and I am a bit tired today.

Ever After

It is always an entertaining film.
One thumbs up, but boo-urns for expensive flights to Italy (and hidden taxes!)

The Hunger Games

Yeah, because things are not bloody/exciting enough - let's add some PUMAS.
One and a half thumbs up, plus acid coloured points for the Marie Antionette getups in Capitol (fantastic juxtaposition with costuming)

Sliding Doors

Gwenyth Paltrow's boyfriend is the film, is, and looks like such a loser douche - it fits perfectly!
One thumbs up because I think it is one of the better 'split'/'alternative storyline' films out there.

Superbad

McLovin doesn't need to be in anything else, he is MCLOVIN.
Two thumbs up - it is hilarious!
