Christopher Walken

DVDs out Today

The Adjustment Bureau - Matt Damon stumbles upon a group of people who control the fate of mankind. (This movie was pretty neat and it was a really interesting premise. Plus, Emily Blunt is really cool.)

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules - The sequel to last spring's kid favorite returns with more hi jinks and laughs. (I didn't see the first, but I really do love Steve Zahn. Just not enough to go see a kiddie movie that isn't animated...)

The Eagle - Channing Tatum and Jaime Bell embark on a quest to find a treasured emblem that disappeared with Channing Tatum's father. (While I love both of these actors, I wasn't really intrigued enough to see it in theaters. But I'll rent it for sure.)

Elektra Luxx - A spin off of the Indie Film Women in Trouble, Elektra Luxx is a retired porn star who is thrown into a strange mystery involving her dead boyfriend. (Carla Gugino is brilliant and there are so many awesome actors in this movie. Plus Women in Trouble was hilarious. This one looks just as great!)

HappyThankYouMorePlease - A look into the lives of a group of friends and their struggles with life, work and love. (I loved it! The acting was great and the story was amazing and it was even heart-warming! Go see it!)

Unknown - Liam Neeson gets into a car accident only to wake up and find that someone else is living his life. (This looked a little too conspiracy-y for me and even though it's fun to watch Liam Neeson beat the crap out of people, I have to say I wasn't interested. Maybe I'll rent it, but the jury's still out.)

Most Imitated Goodies

Underrated movie of the post:

The Rundown. A man is forced to travel to South America to hunt down and return a mobster's treasure-hunting son. (Christopher Walken was absolutely priceless in this movie. I mean, he walks the line between funny and crazy that you wouldn't expect him to be so good at being bad. But then again, he wasn't your standard bad guy. I love it!)

Movies to see:

The Adjustment Bureau, Elektra Luxx, HappyThankYouMorePlease, The Rundown

Trailers of the post: Dumb

Rise of the Planet of the Apes. James Franco develops the drug that makes monkeys super smart and then they rebel and then they take over the planet and then some other stuff happens. (This looks ridiculous. I love James Franco, but I am not going to see this. The other movies did nothing for me, even the remake with Marky Mark. No gracias.)



Final Destination 5. A bridge collapses, but a couple people survive only to be hunted down by death. (This looks ridiculous, but in a good way! These movie are super cool and they come up with some really interesting ways to kill people. Morbid, I know, but that's just how I roll.)
