TRON Legacy ---- 7.0
I loved how strongly stylized it was. Well duh, TRON universe, but still.
The Hunger Games ---- 7.5
I was a bit let down by this movie. Good film, but over hyped.
It was so hyped and praised and I expected it to be one of the best movies ever, but.. I don’t know, it didn’t wow me that much. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great film, but I don’t feel it was as good as the hype made it out to be. Looking forward to the film adaptations of the other books, though.
Ted ---- 6.8
Funnier then I assumed it would be. McFarlane's creative influence is definitely visible in this. Which is a good thing in my opinion
Due Date ---- 7.8
A very fun, funny and somewhat quirky experience. Shame Zach Galifianakis's character was almost the same as in The Hangover(s), though.
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe ---- 9.0
Never watched it before, and it was lovely in ever sense of the word. Instant personal favourite.
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian ---- 7.3
I definitely enjoyed the first (movie) better, but this was still quite enjoyable. But frickin' humans, man. They ruin everything.
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader ---- 8.0
Definitely better then the second (movie). And made me look forward to The Magician's Nephew.
Super 8 ---- 6.8
You know what? I enjoyed it. It's not that original or remarkable in comparison to similar movies, but I really enjoyed it.
I am Number Four ---- 6.5
I can take or leave ''I am Number Four''. The 'sent to Earth to protect your magical powers' concept has been done to death. It's superman in a modified coat. But it's a nice popcorn movie.
Madagascar 3 ---- 7.0
After Ice Age 4 I wasn't feeling too confident about 'once great' animated movie series, but this one surprised me.
Despite some awkward juvenile humour and a particular unoriginal character (because, you know, it's a kids movie) I made it through without cringing too much. I particularly liked the circus act near the end of the 3rd quarter of the movie. That was kind of impressive.
Dead Silence ---- 6.7
Reignited my passionate fear for dolls and dummies. Not very original, but it's really quite scary.
Mr. Popper's Penguins ---- 7.8
It was a bit corny at times, but I can look past that. It's been ages since I saw Jim Carrey in something funny. Through lack of seeing films he is in, mind you. Not due to his performance.
Brother Bear ---- 8.5
While it's relatively new, I consider this one of Disney's best classics. It is such a heart warming and well animated movie.
Brother Bear 2 ---- 7.5
Not quite as memorable as the original, but incredibly heart warming non the less.
But I have to say the change in voice actor was a bit jarring. I don't know whether they did that to sell the romance side of things better, but it was kinda off putting considering I watched the first one like literal minutes ago.
Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides ---- 8.5
Not having the regular characters around feels a bit strange and empty at times, but other then that I loved it.
Tekken: Blood Vengeance ---– 6.7
This is one of those movie where you enjoy a nice seizure caused by endless awesome flooding the screen. Not too rich in story, but visually awesome beyond reason.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo ---– 9.5
There’s so much in this movie, it kind of boggled my mind.
It’s one of the best movies I watched in this list, but I wouldn’t watch it again soon. There are a few sadistic things in this movie (which makes the story a lot stronger and compelling) that really turned my stomach. I can’t in good heart say that I “loved” it, but it’s an experience I won’t soon forget.
Happy Feet –--- 7.3
I’m a big fan of music, musicals and dance. This movie had all of that. It also had a much different vibe than most animated movies I have seen recently, which was a good thing in my opinion. Its story is told in a more mature way then required.
And oh, I saw that quick hidden dry hump scene there, animators. Funny stuff, you cheeky bastards.
Happy Feet II ---– 7.0
This movie is pretty as biscuits. Amazingly impressive 3D animation. Much like the first one very musically involved. <3
Scott Pilgrim vs the World ---– 8.5
Silly, game styled, totally awesome.
The Nightmare Before Christmas –--- 7.4
I have to commend it for its animation. It proves to be a timeless method. However, other than the opening song I feel it’s a bit weak on the music end of things (which it has a lot of). Oh well, at least I can say I’ve seen it now.
The Iron Giant ---– 7.5
I remember it so well back when I was a little kid of maybe 9 or 10, I wanted to see this movie so bad. It back then was a nice movie. I always find creative use of 2D a lot more endearing and impressive then high tech 3D stimulated animation.
Young Adult ---- 8.6
I don’t think I’ve ever liked and disliked a protagonist as the one this movie.
The trailer tried to sell it as somewhat romantic comedy, which it didn’t turn out to be. Much to my surprise it was a really riveting drama that takes a rather realistic take on the awkward social cues that follow when someone gets stuck in a high school mentality in adulthood.
