Limitless
I liked the trippiness of the movie and the idea was cool. I guess I liked the movie. I don't really know for some reason.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes 6/10
Did a good job building up the story, but there wasn't enough action. James Franco sucks but the monkeys were cool.
Bonus fake Keith Jackson appearance: "Whoa, Nellie, we have ourselves a barn-burner here today! Welcome to the 117th dust-up between the Snortin' Swine of Springfield A&M and the Springfield University Nittany Tide. Ho, ho, doctor, break out the hickory switch! Well, hang on to your hoop skirts, folks, because Anton Lubchenko is going to be kicking higher than a mule on payday. Oh, land o'lakes! Take that, ozone layer! (later in the game) Oh, doctor, with SU behind and seconds left, my supply of homespun sayings is lower than a doodlebug in Aunt Tilly's root cellar. So we'll -- Oh, jumpin' crawdaddies! Is that Lubchenko coming back on the field?"SU Nittany Tide's own Anton Lubchenko!
Watched a really weird indi movie, Hesher, yesterday, with Joseph Gordon Levitt and Rainn Wilson.
Picture Mary Poppins, but with a really dark sense of humor, and replace Mary Poppins with a stoner Joseph Levitt. Solid movie all the way through, although sometimes it kind of struggles with its cohesion. But that's life I guess.
8/10
Prometheus, caught it last night.
Outstanding Ridley Scott film, lotta people I know didnt like it but thats because they went into it thinking it was another Aliens movie and its really not. I mean there is a sprinkle of them here and there and its the same universe but the story is outside of that arena and its a very good one.
People scare easier when they are dying.
Technically thats a different planet thats near by the planet in which Ripley and company find the Alien and the Beacon.. Remember there are other ships, "Many" on LV223 (where they are in the movie.) Alien takes place on LV446 or some number close to that where the Engineer is still in the chair manning the beacon. Possibly a different guy that wakes up, finds the trouble and takes off but is to late because he obviously had an alien chest burster inside of him.
RIP Baby Duck...We Never Knew You, and I am so sorry.
Noses are the unsung hero of the face, ties the whole thing together. Name one good looking person without a nose...can't do it.
Franco is made more believable as a scientist by having Tyler Labine as a fellow scientist. Anyone looks more scientist-like than Labine.
And any lack of acting ability is covered by the extreme awesomeness of Brian Cox and John Lithgow.
Plus, the asshole kid from the Harry Potter movies gets killed as a bonus. Dude should fire his agent, though, as those Potter movies and this role have him typecast as an asshole now.
