Bolt - Entertaining.
How to Lose Friends & Alienate People - Less entertaining, but still OK.
The Oxford Murders - Quite entertaining. I never miss a chance to see an Elijah Wood movie (except LOTR).
Valkyrie - Tom Cruise as a German? Not really...
Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder - Better than previous two.
Slumdog Millionaire - OK cool, but a bit too much hype on this one
Passchendaele - Caroline Dhavernas made such a superb performance that even Paul Gross' unconvincing acing (to say the least) couldn't spoil.
The Day the Earth Stood Still - Not nearely as bad as one might think. Of course this kind of movies have more holes in their plot than Swiss cheese, but we are not watching them for the sake of dramatic consistency, are we? It is just fun to watch some fireworks from time to time, right?
Caprica - Pilot - Wow! A bit less mystical than Battlestar Galactica, but definitely GREAT!
Cry of the Owl - Just couldnt watch more than 35 minutes of it... Despite Caroline Dhavernas. :S
Transformers - Dunno... kinda fun to watch! If you don't expect much more than action eye-candy from Michael Bay movies, you'll get a fun ride!
Impact - It is not that I watch this kind of stuff for the sake of realism, but this was a bit too much anyway.
The Young Victoria - Enjoyable, especially from the cinematic point of view.
Push - This movie tries badly to look artistic, and it almost makes it... It has Asian environment, high-grain shots, hand shots, low saturation shots... But it also fails on many levels; like predictable script, ending battle, a bit stupid dialogues...

Ive been dying to see "The Young Victoria". Ill have to wait till the DVD comes out.
I caught "Angels and Demons" recently. It was a great movie. Full of suspense. (More so coz I hadnt read the book!)
