SHORTS
Walked out. A film that shows that stupid people wish for silly things and dull people wish for ordinary things. If I had a wishing rock, I would wish for a better script.
IMAGINE THAT
Watchable. The childtalk is annoying. I wasn't that stupid even as a kid. The adult business plot is much better.
BANDSLAM
Walked out. About nerds with bad music tastes.
THE TIME TRAVELER'S WIFE
Walked out. Brad Pitt must be really aging if he felt any need for producing this sentimental bore about passing time.
A PERFECT GETAWAY
Watchable. It starts with a serious of bland conversations on the trek. It's only towards the much faster ending that you wish you had listened carefully. All the hints were there.
ALIENS IN THE ATTIC
Watchable. Cheerful family science fiction like in the 80s. Brilliantly acted inventive kids stop an alien invasion. Only the aliens disappoint - they look and talk like Shrek.
INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS
Recommended. Tarantino's best movie. Stunningly acted, stylishly shot and most of all perfectly scripted. Even the slow beginning is compelling and later you get one twist after another. Absolutely superb.
LIFE PARTNER
Watchable. A cheerful family comedy with ingeniously over-the-top characters, including a divorce lawyer breaking people's marriages. Good music. While it never fails to be funny, it doesn't cut the edge. Only tried and tested comedy rules have been applied.
