Re: 2008 Films in Review Vantage Point B- (My god, I never saw such terrible Acting for a Oscar winner before, Forest Whitaker)
10,000 BC C- My god what a stupid film with so potential. The film got interesting in the middle with them on a journey. I was cool, this is a bit like FOTR now. Then the whole ending was stupid as we don't get to know about the most interesting thing in the whole movie, the alien looking King.
Iron Man: B+ A Rock solid blockbuster which has some decent acting which is a rare thing in such films. A fun enjoyable film and is easily the better of the Comic books films with Batman Begins, X-Men 2 and Spiderman 2.
I have noticed I becoming a much stricter man with Ratings. I would have easily gave Iron Man 9.5/10 2 years ago...
