G-FORCE 3D
Watchable. Unlike previous 3D releases this year, the film is mostly 3D indeed. The plot is rubbish but I sympatised with the animals so stayed watching. The music is really good.
THE UGLY TRUTH
Watchable. An involving story, well acted and shot but a bit of other romantic comedies' rip-off ("He's just not that into you" most of all). Great music.
ORPHAN
Watchable. A merciless rip-off of other obsessed-killer stories but with a brilliant twist that immediately makes it more credible. Also a great study of manipulation and invariably futile attempts of defence, very true psychologically. It was all really brutal so afterwards instead of watching "Mesrine: Killer Instinct" I went to see comic-book adaptation
G.I. JOE: THE RISE OF COBRA
Recommended. I don't know what it's about but it looks spectacular. A feast for the eye and the ear even if not the brain. The shonky plot doesn't distract from mind-blowing CGIs and ideas behind future warfare (e.g. nanomites excreting poison out of the body or electronic fish). Science fiction in the true meaning of the words. With some brilliant lines too (e.g. "Are you spying on me?" "If I were spying on you, you wouldn't know.")
