Movie catch-up time
I will try to keep these short and sweet as I have a boatload of movies to get through. That means no photos, no long, drawn-out complaints about poor direction or lame acting - just a quick and dirty rating on a scale of 1 to 10.
Let's start off with the one I just finished, 3:10 to Yuma. I've seen better westerns and I've seen worse. It's just always cool to see one.
RATING 7 out of 10
Resident Evil: Extinction - what can I say, I know this whole series blows, but I find it fun for some reason.
RATING 7 out of 10
Frivolous Lola - I am embarrassed to say that I watched this. It seems the titillation factor was the appeal and frankly, not worth it. The one thing that stuck with me was the song "Mona Monella." I can't find it anywhere but love it despite the fact it is Italian and I can't understand any of it.
RATING 5 out of 10
Rescue Dawn is the second Christian Bale film in this list and neither was his best work. Think - Empire of the Sun.
RATING 6 out of 10
TED: The Future We Will Create - I really liked this documentary and like I twittered after watching it, I really want to attend a TED conference now. Cool stuff.
RATING 8 out of 10
Two Days in April - This documentary chronicles college football players leading up to the NFL draft. As a documentary, it is not very well done, as information about the inside dealings of the NFL and the draft, it is kinda cool
RATING 7 out of 10

What can I say? You are right - the movie sucked. I admitted that in the post. I also stated that for some reason I find them fun. I know its crap - but sometimes you just want some mindless, poorly-written, badly-acted crap.
