Friday evening, after a fight with my PMSing wife, I left the apartment and went to see Project X - clearly I'm not the target audience for it, it was just a waste of time. Even the loud group of tweenies behind me didn't seem to laugh at the right place. Then went to the local comedy theater to catch some improv' and

C is about right. The performances were solid but the predictable plot, flat direction and corny dialogues resulted in not much more than an after-school special.

B is pretty generous, I thought it all went downhill after the Real Housewives of Disney sketch. LiLo was perfect for it, since the injections on her cheekbones make her look like one of those blonde 60 year old reality show freaks. 
It was nice of the SNL writers to acknowledge her past, but what last night really

Favorite Lambchop song: "Soaky in the pooper"… Gorgeous arrangements, and the funniest sad story of a man dying alone on a toilet seat

Having seen the 9 movies nominated, and then some, I just don't understand how The Help ended up on that list. To me, it's at best a Lifetime movie of the week, with with poor direction and good acting in stereotypical roles. 
I'm confused as to what the message is: Nice white woman saves the day by writing a book on

Finally saw it!
One word review: "Juvenile"
Although I could have used "offensive", given that the the German villains are 2 skinheads and a ridiculously gay and absurdly cruel Perez Hilton-lookalike in white tennis shorts.

I remember the movie giving me a massive headache when I first saw it in the theater. Since then, I must have watched it a dozen times, mostly passively when it's shown on TV… It's one of my guilty pleasures.
I especially love the scene when Stallone is eating in a fancy restaurant while the resistance guys come from

Oh snap, you're right, it was intended for the "Battlestar Galactica" article

How about Kylie Minogue "Confide in me"?
I love that song, I love touching myself to those violins.
The rest of her discography, meh…And before anyone writes about her duo with Nick Cave "Where the wild roses grow", it's a Nick Cave song, she's just an extra in his deranged movie.

I could have passed the fact that she was so unattractive if only she'd done something interesting.

Had the exact same experience. Gave up after about 30 minutes. It was like watching a bad French movie, and I've watched a lot of them. I guess that's why Judd Apatow makes the big bucks: he found potential where all I saw was navel gazing.

Had to see on VOD it after I discovered it was the highest grossing foreign movie of 2011.
It's pretty good, a B+ in my book

Terrific choice… The ending is heartbreaking… I still hear her scream: "Micheeeeeeeeeeeel"

Nick Cave did that already with the Pogues' Shane MacGowan, an ironic drunken cover of "What a wonderful world".
That being said, I've been in love with Leonard Cohen ever since an English teacher in Oxford made me study "Famous blue raincoat" in 1988. I cried a lot on Cohen. I seduced girls using his music. I made

Great review, great movie: Ken & Barbie go to war and get eaten by ants. Love the satire, find it baffling that some people wouldn't understand. Well, I love Showgirls as well, so there you have it…

I hear Maggie Gyllenhaal does a great job as the journalist

While Michael Fassbender tries to take her out in a 4-star hotel room, Channing Tatum rushes to her side with a baseball bat and yells "Look, Buttermaker, you're not my father!".

Just finished it, and have to say the review is spot on… That was just an awful experience, full of cliches and stereotypes (oh, the irony!). The fact that the movie did so well at the Box Office proves that some audience go to the movies to be comforted (please, no surprise, I want to see the whole arc in the
