Taken 10/10... It's like a mix of Jason Bourne meets James Bond with a little man on fire mixed in...But even better with action scene after action scene...Cool story line...I loved it.

I don't know, I thought the story line had a lot of holes... Otherwise it was great.

Michael Clayton 8/10... Kind of an Erin Brokovich with less character development and slightly better acting

If you like intense action with a real dollop of suspense, check out "Vantage Point", with Dennis Quaid, Matthew Fox (Jack from Lost), Forest Whitaker (When did he drop the second 'R'?), and William Hurt, with a cameo by Sigourney Weaver.

It's a movie about an assassination attempt on the President of the United States (Hurt), set in Madrid, during a Summit Meeting, looked at from several different viewpoints. IMO, very well done.

Starts out a little slow, but quickly gains momentum.

8/10
Autzen Stadium... Where great teams go to die...Hard!

I saw it. I liked it a lot. It's a little repetitious, but it was unique.

That's why I loved momento.

This isn't the last movie I watched, but I thought the latest James Bond film "Quantum of Solace" was terrible. I think they should have waited and made a better movie. IMO, this movie was pointless. I hope the next one is much better.

It wasn't horrendous but it definitely was not a masterpiece or anything close. The first half of the movie was really intriguing albeit kind of slow paced which left the second half including the climax feeling really rushed and didn't really convey the points of the comic very clearly.

On the other hand the Rorschach character was brilliantly developed and acted.

Overall I hated snyder's 300 because of the lack of character development with no real emotional attachment to the protagonists. Watchmen does a great job developing the characters but even for a 3 hour movie the rest is just was crammed in and kind of lost my interest as it was nowhere near as well done as the beginning of the film. The comic is pretty deep when it comes to it's commentary about human nature, society, and politics. A lot of this got lost or jumbled and wasn't really conveyed all that well.
BOOF it!
