Kev's Movie Log (cause I'm bored)

[Agent Kev]

Movies are rated 1 thru 10. 1 being The Avengers and Batman and Robin. 10 being Shawshank Redempion, Memento, Almost Famous and Pulp Fiction.

Walk the Line
The second best movie I've seen this year. A great story and fantastic acting from Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon (yes, I was amazed too). Phoenix is probably the most underrated actor of his generation not named Billy Crudup. See this movie.
Rating: 9 out of 10

Fantastic Four
X-Men with bad acting
Rating: 3 out of 10

Dukes of Hazzard
Everything a Dukes of Hazzard should be. As long as you are watching this for rednecks, hotties and inappropriate comments then you will enjoy it.
Rating: 6 out of 10

The Island
Good premise, not so good of a movie.
Rating: 4 out of 10

In Good Company
Solid date movie. Decent story, decent acting. Scarlett Johansson has really blossomed into women hood well, she looks amazing in this movie.
Rating: 6 out of 10

Bad News Bears
Good for what it is. Same category as Dukes of Hazzard but not quite as good in my book although Billy Bob is a hoot.
Rating: 5 out of 10

Stealth
This was craptastical. Didn't make it thru the movie. But since it has Jessica Beil then it gets a couple of rating points.
Rating: 3 out of 10

Last Days
Horrible, horrible movie. Supposed to be a Kurt Cobain-esque movie about his Last Days but it just a guy stumbling around mumbling to himself (you have to turn on the subtitles to hear what he is mumbling). Avoid this.
Rating: 1 out of 10

Mr. and Mrs. Smith
Not a great movie but a really fun popcorn action movie.
Rating: 6 out of 10

Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo
This is good for a few laughs but overall really bad. If you liked the first one then this one is not as good.
Rating: 2 out of 10

War of the Worlds
I usually really enjoy Tom Cruise movies. I usually really enjoy Steven Speilberg movies. Not this one. Just didn't like it, too much stuff that just wasn't realistic and made you say "I don't think so".
Rating: 4 out of 10

Murderball
Documentary about parapalegics who play rugby. Just an amazing story about these people and what they've been through and about how some of them are still hard asses. Good stuff if you are into documentaries.
Rating: 7 out of 10

The Interpreter
Solid movie if you like dramas and movies that are about political intrigue. Good stuff.
Rating: 7 out of 10

Elizabethtown
Another really good Cameron Crowe film. I thought there was great chemisty between Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst. Overall a quirky but good film, if you liked Almost Famous then you will like this. Another really good date movie.
Rating: 7.5 out of 10

I love almost famous, and singles and fast times at ridgemont high, and so do my friends, but a couple of em saw elizabeth town and said it was no wheres near as good as the others

[archeng]

I'm usually very critical of comic book movies (because I'm a big fan of comics), but I actually enjoyed Fantastic Four. It's probably because, like Blade, I don't really care for the source material as much as Spider-Man, Batman, X-Men, and such. I thought it was a fun movie and better than the Hulk and Daredevil films. The acting in some cases (Jessica Alba and, to a degree, Julian McMahon as Doom) wasn't the greatest, but I liked some of the casting, especially Evans as Human Torch. I would definitely watch the FF sequel.

Your right. It's not as good. But it is still a good movie.

Evans was definitely the most tolerable of the actors in the movie (and I love me some Michael Chiklis).

Jessica Alba doesn't have to be a good actor in everything she's in, As long as there are some good shots of her great body I'm happy.

[blakeferris]

Like that half a second ass shot when she is dancer in the background in sin city, good stuff

Exzactly

King Kong-2005

This was a fun movie. A little long and I could have done without the last 25-30 minutes but overall a good watch. I really enjoyed the stuff from Skull Island- had a real Jurassic Park feel to it.

Rating: 7 out of 10

40 Year Old Virgin

One of those movies where you find yourself laughing out loud at very vulgar and crude things. Funny movie.

Rating: 6 out of 10

Four Brothers

I enjoyed this probably more than I should have. Good revenge movie with a somewhat entertaining plot.

Rating: 6 out of 10

Must Love Dogs

God, I mark for John Cusack. I even have a "Cusack for President" t-shirt. Really solid date movie even if it is cheesy and predictable. Cusack nails his dialogue in this one and steals his scenes.

Rating: 7 out of 10

The Exorcism of Emily Rose

As far as horror movies go this was a good drama. A enjoyed the story and the acting was solid. Just didn't think it was scary.

Rating: 6 out of 10

The Brothers Grimm

Really strange movie that was actually quite enjoyable although not really memorable.

Rating: 5 out of 10

[Samoa JOWNED~!]

I DEMAND you to rise your rating of The 40 Year Old Virgin!

[blakeferris]

I demand you raise the rating of King Kong. King Kong was 3 hours of glory. He had dinasours in a double headlock, he snapmared a couple of em off a god damn cliff, then he broke one's face. This along with the natives, which are the scariest thing ever, the look of the island, the look of kong and Jack Black, this deserves at least an 8.5, if not a nine or ten

[Agent Kev]

I do not take demands, but I do take bribes.

[blakeferris]

If I figure out how to use karma..... I my slip a lincoln in there.

[Riley G]

This Log is what I'm going by for movies I want to see, so you better be right. But I also demand you raise 40 year old virgin that was halarious.
