10 out of 10. this is one movie worth seeing.

The Producers(2007) and the producers(197?)
both of these movies i rented from The king of movie rentals, netflix. Both movies were grotesquely funny in there own little way.
The movies are about a washed-up Playwright(Nathan lane And Zero Mostel) who teams up with an accountant(Matthew Broderick and gene wilder) who come up with the perfect scheme: Make the worst Broadway show ever known and make off with the $800,000 profits. But as you know nothing goes according to plan.
they both get 7 stars because both had there own unique touch.

Lemony snicket's a series of unfortunate events
i saw this movie a few years ago in theaters. It was actually good then but now i look back at it as if it was one of the worst movies i have ever seen.
This movie is based on the famous series of books in which three orphans are put in the care of there deeply Psychotic Guardian (Jim Carrey).
2 out of 10 for this movie. I wish i could go back in time and stop myself from seeing this terrible movie.

The Matrix
i saw this movie on DVD and look forward to possibly seeing it again another day.
This movie surrounds Neo(Keanu Reeves) a computer hacker who, After meeting a group of Individuals led by Morpheus(Lawrence Fishbourne), he realizes that the whole existence is just a blindness from the truth that involves Aliens and time.
8 out of 10 for the matrix. It got kind of confusing. But who is not confused after seeing the matrix?

Galaxy Quest
i mentioned this particular movie in the list of my top 5 dvds. It was also a great movie.

9 out of 10 for the crew of the N.S.E. Protector.

8 out of 10 for this Jim Henson movie.

The incredible Hulk
i saw this in Philadelphia with my grandparents over summer.
Based on the marvel comic series, Bruce Banner(Edward Norton) is controlled by a gamma virus that turns him into a monster on the run from the government.
This movie was a large improvement from 2003's Frighteningly horrible "Hulk".
7 out of 10 for Bruce B(As suppose to Bruce W).

Iron Man
i saw this movie multiple times and felt things i didn't feel the time before.
This movie revolves around Playboy billionaire/Weapons manufacturer Tony Stark(Robert Downey Jr) who is turned to a superhero after he makes a titanium Warsuit while being kept captive by Vietnamese people.
5 out of 10 for iron man. I was really disappointed after the second time.

thank you for smoking
this yet another of the great movies i got from netflix.com. Its like a pot roast: all of the ordinary flavors coming together and harmoniously make something wondurful.
this movie centers around the life of big tobacco lobbyist Nick Naylor(Aaron Eckhart) and the overall lobbying business without making it a boring corporate movie.
9 out of 10 for big tobacco lobbyist Aaron Eckhart.

Valkyrie
i saw this movie earlier today and i was pleased i had. The wind was cold and the theater was crowded and there were no parking spaces, but it was worth it.
This movie goes back in time to the 2nd world war surrounding an assasination atempt on Adolf Hitler by a German colonel(tom cruise) and another group of individuals fighting against Hitler's Germany.
7 out of 10. Tom cruise's obsession with his detached eyeball and his awkward american accent ruined the movie, but it was still worth a taste.

Batman Begins
i saw this movie about 3 Days before seeing "the dark Knight" in theaters. I wanted to see batman begins 1st because i thought it would help me understand the dark knight better.
The movie centers around Bruce Wayne(Christian Bale) and his becoming of the caped crusader and dealing with villains such as Jonathan Crane(Cillian Murphy) and Ra's al ghul(Ken Watanabe).
9 out of 10 for batman begins. There is no doubt that it almost kept the pace up with its sequal.

Princess Caraboo
i rented this movie from Netflix(which i totally recommend to people who don't like trekking all the way to blockbuster).
The movie takes place in Britain where a couple finds a foreign woman who they believe to be a princess.They take advantage of this by showing her off to public when a journalist and a butler(Kevin Kline)get suspicious.

star wars IV
i owned this movie on VHS for a long time. Ever since i can remember i spent my days watching star wars over and over and over and over and over and over again.in other words, i was a star wars geek by the age of 5.
This movie is set on a remote planet called Tatooine, which is where a man named Luke Skywalker lives. He then comes across the Jedi named Obi-wan Kenobi.
this movie spawned the uprising of Science fiction movies. more and more were appearing everywhere.
7 out of 10 for episode IV.

Howl's moving Castle
i own this movie on DVD. It is usually so that Hayao Miyazaki Films are good but this By far the best of them all.
Howl's moving Castle is the story of Sophie, A girl who is changed into an old lady by a witch after falling for a mysterious Wizard named Howl(Christian Bale) and moves into the countryside and ends up boarding howl's castle that walks.Billy Crystal co-stars.
9 out of 10 for Howl and Sophie. It would have been better if it had more recognizable actors then just Mr crystal and Mr Bale.

The dark knight
i know that this might seem odd because it came out in july but i do not really care.
This movie starts after batman begins ends. Batman(christian bale) is up against a new villain called the joker(Heath ledger), While trying to maintain his relationship with his girlfriend(Maggie Ghyllanhal) Who he is slowly losing to district attorney Harvey Dent(Aaron Eckhart).
This movie was undoubtedly one of the top 10 movies of the year and has buzz on Oscars this season.
FULL 10 out of 10 for this new batman movie. And best of luck at the oscars.

This week's top 10 dvds
1 the dark knight. obviously this box office biggy was going to be a great DVD.
2 Casino Royale: Kind of long but it is worthwhile if you wait til the end credits roll.
3: Galaxy quest. This movie is a rare find and is really funny if you watch every second of the movie.
4 The league of extraordinary gentlemen: Sean Connery makes a stunning performance as an adventurer. If only everything he said was scripted.
5 The bourne supremacy: i saw it at my grandpa's house. i loved it.

Quantam of solace
i saw this movie for two times and only liked one of those two times. I payed more attention the second time around and hated it for the entire movie.
in this movie, Gun slinging MI6 agent James Bond(Daniel Craig) seeks revenge for his girlfriends death by a ruthless corporation trying to get hold of Bolivia's water supply.
this movie is a 1-time only movie with absolutely no cool gadgets the other bond movies had.
******* out of ********** for bond. James Bond.

The tale of desperaux
i went to this movie with my family on Christmas day in South Carolina. I wanted to see "Valkyrie" but i was outnumbered in votes so instead we saw this.
The movie takes place in a french city called Door and follows desperaux(voiced by Matthew Broderick) a mouse who eventually falls for a human princess(Emma watson) and is banished from where he lives with his family and cast in to the sewer(A.K.A "the dungeon")
this movie was not as good as i hoped and was certainly not fitting the standards of my other family.
**** out of ********** for this adventurous little mouse. I really would have rather seen Valkyrie even if they fail.
