YEDI KOCALI HURMUZ
Walked out. It looks like a freak show. Only a woman with a beard is missing. Or maybe not. I didn't wait that long.
THE STEPFATHER
Watchable. A typical psycho killer movie but well made, well acted and Amber Heard as Kelly is really hot (ultra-feminine features and shapes).
CARRIERS
Watchable. A typical film about an epidemics decimating humanity. No ending. Chris Pine with facial hair doesn't look even half as sexy as in "Star Trek". The only interesting thing in the film is the distrophy of human solidarity - Brian abandoning his infected girlfriend on the road was powerful and it's not the only example.
ROCKET SINGH - SALESMAN OF THE YEAR
Recommended. Bullied at work idealist starts his own business and competes with his employer - the film is funny and full of suspense.

WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE
Walked out. Your own children will be more interesting. Or if you don't like children, you won't like the film anyway. Either way don't bother.
DAS WEISSE BAND (THE WHITE RIBBON)
Walked out. Michael Haneke is making worse and worse movies. "Funny Games" were brilliant, "La Pianiste" ("The Piano Player") still good, "Cache" ("Hidden") watchable, while "Das Weisse Band" ("The White Ribbon") is slow, with no musical score, shot in black and white, with an annoying narrative.

ME AND ORSON WELLES
Walked out. You really have to be into the theatre to enjoy this cinematic production.
PAA
Walked out. An irresponsible and unreliable man leaves his pregnant girlfriend, whe gives birth to a son who suffers from progeria. The disease isn't very enticing visually and you don't need to go to the cinema to find irresponsible and unreliable men. The guy in the film becomes a politician.
CRACKS
Recommended. Worthy of a few oscars: beautifully acted, a subtle yet powerful story of dangerous love.

GLORIOUS 39
Recommended. It's political but the feeling of being cornered is as powerful as in the original "The Stepford Wives". Its realism only makes it more scary.
NATIVITY
Watchable. Starts with teacher bickering, then becomes a beautiful, albeit sad, tale about hope and ends with a spectacular performance with a fantastic use for the spire of the Coventry Cathedral -well worth seeing. They are taking the movie off now so get it on DVD and fast forward to the ending.
THE DESCENT: PART 2
Walked out. The cave is nothing special so the pre-horror descent has no impact and then you get rats crawling out of corpses and alien-rip-off monsters.
