Well, in the last three weeks my left lung collapsed twice so I had to go to the hospital both times and have a tube on the left side of my chest... Hopefully that won't happen again. -_-
I hope you get better soon

The Godfather - A
Just watched it for the first time ever, and I can't wait to find 3 hours to watch it again. Great stuff.

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
The movie was OK, it wasnt bad at all, although the acting sucked big time, but i really dont care for that in a Star Wars film, if i was grading all the trilogy together on the acting i will prolly give it a D+
For Me it was to slow and had some boring moment, seriously i was falling a sleep
-of course the duels and the SFX were great.
Im not getting into little details because i dont follow the story and the characters that much like some of you guys.
It will not get to the A terretory from me because:
-the editing between the sequences was so bad, and sooo much cuts all over the movie.....like.... every 5 seconds
-The Battle scenes were BAD
-"The Humor", it sucked, and it really didnt worked for me
-WTF is wrong with R2D2?!
-Where the HELL is Chewie!!, i only saw im for...like... 5 mins
-C3PO same has Chewie
-the NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO was hilarious, and so not Darth Vader
-It wasnt as entertaining as the First two, but the story was MUCH better
I honestly didnt felt the exciment and the buzz when i was watching it, when it ended i was so neutral, it was like i didnt see nothing at all
Im going to be VERY nice and for the sake of my life im giving it a B-
Im really not dissapointed because i didnt expect the best....so i guess i was right!
Empire Strikes Back still stands as my Favorite Star Wars Film

ROMY AND MICHELLE: IN THE BEGINNING - 5/10 (C-)
First off let me say this is better then most tv movies. I thought the first hour of the film was absolutely hilarious, I was laughing many times. Then it got too much like the original and too serious. The biggest problem was that I missed the original cast. It is what it is :wink:

Wild Things: 4.4/10 (C-)
What a waste of time. The film was nothing that people have made it out to be and was honestly quite boring. The twists towards the end were so contrived they were almost laughable. The only thing worthwhile about the film was Neve Campell and even she wasn't all that great.
Madagascar: 5.8/10 (C+)
Almost as bad as last years dreadful entry into the CGI genre, Shark Tale. Hardly funny, and at times quite boring. The long periods of dialogue were so tedious at times it was "yawn" worthy.

Closer - A
While I think I may have watched it too many times thanks to my sister due to her infatuation with Jude Law (she stole my DVD  ), I'd still say its a fascinating film.

LILYA 4 EVER - 9/10 (A-)
Brilliant!! The acting is also top notch. I love the story, it was just so depressing. I'm definetely going to buy this ... somewhere.

Boogeyman: D
What a crappy movie. No substance, no thrills, no nothing. The while film just lacked any point. The ending was just bad as well.

Punch-Drunk Love: C+
A bit of a disappointment, especially considering Boogie Nights and Magnolia are two of my favorites. Anderson still does amazing things with the camera here and creates some interesting characters, but the film itself is so interested in being spastic and finding the quirks and ticks of Sandler's character (who is mighty good here), it becomes a little convoluted. And a little too silly for its own good.

Day of the Dead. I'm thinking B.
Very tough for me to give these movies grades, since I like Romero's plot, but miss large parts of the actual movie due to covering my eyes.

Alone in the the Dark F-
Where do I begin on this crap fest? This movie was boring and not scarey at all a huge fuking let down. The action was okay but just barely and the acting sucked and why the hell did they have a useless sex scene? cause the blond bimbo can't act so that had to give her something to do  Slater said this movie was good? well hes wrong wrong wrong!! it takes forever for this story to start and you can't wait for it to end. the mosters looked like a rip off from Alians just more like a dog "bark bark" I say the only good thing about this movie was Slaters coat and I only say that cause I want one.

Fat Actress: Season 1: Disc 1- B+
This show is off to a promising start. All four episodes were superb, and consistently funny. As each episode unfolded they tended to get even better than the previous episodes, which is really rare for shows like this. Kirstie Alley is hysterical, and all of the special guests were excellent. I can't wait to watch Disc 2!

Episode III: Revenge of the Sith - C+. Not as painful as I and II, and hey, at least I gave it a passing grade.
Yes, it was surely better than the two previous films, but that's not saying much. I really wanted to like this movie, and I did for the last 15 minutes. But it still had too much of the cringeworthy/eyeroll-inducing traits of the other two films--bad writing, bad acting, ridiculous moments--and I was not moved or convinced by the dramatic scenes. But it was at least enjoyable in spurts. So was it a worthy "conclusion" to the series? As Yoda would say,"lying I would be, if yes I said."

The Chronicles Of Riddick - C+
An overly ambitious blend of Alien 3 and The Matrix that doesn't quite work. I really liked Pitch Black and think Riddick is a great role for Vin Diesel, but the leap from animalistic anti-hero to would-be messiah is a little too hard to swallow. I liked the action sequences and thought the part on the prison planet was the best sequence, but I didn't care for the Necromonger storyline. It was fun seeing Judi Dench in something different as an 'elemental' whatever that is.

THE SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS - 8/10 (A-)
While some of the changes from the book didn't impress me at all (Lana's story wasn't very good, much better in the book) some were quite good. Amber Tamblyn ... WOW! She was absolutely amazing!!! Best female peformance of the year so far, she definetely gets points in my book. This isn't just for females, I know a lot of males that enjoy both the film and the book. I admit, the trailer wasn't very good but I really hope some of you will give this a try, it's a really great movies.
CINDERELLA MAN - 5/10 (C-)
Yep, that was expected! Once again I thought Russell Crowe's performance was quite overrated, I actually thought he was annoying in it. Renee and Paul were absolutely amazing though, I really hope they both get nominated for an Oscar, they really deserve it. Besides their performances, the film fell flat on it's face. No, the movie was never boring but I wasn't exactly interested in it. Oh well, I knew I wouldn't like it, so I'm not really complaining. I do think SISTERHOOD and CINDERELLA MAN should switch box office numbers though.
