Return Home

WALL.E

Grade: A-

This was a very well done movie after seeing Ratatouille last year. I found this film as entertaining as the previous PIXAR films including The Incredibles, Cars and Finding Nemo.

I also likes the messeges in the film. I somewhat wonder if the folks saw and understood the messages. No matter.

The film was great and the short was actually better. The best since the Chubb-Chubbs.

This film is definitely a must see.

WIPEOUT

Well it's summertime, season finales happened for the remaining shows that survived the writers strike.

Now it is time for the summer shows. A couple big shows return including So You Think You Can Dance & Americas Got Talent.

They also introduced some new show and one that stood out for me is Wipeout. This show was brought in by ABC and it is hilarious. You have to at least check out at least one episode. It airs on Wednesday Night.

This will be an interesting summer.

Special Agent

Get Smart

Grade A

Starring Steve Carell, Anne Hathaway, Dwayne Johnson & Alan Arkin.

A great movie release of a very funny TV show. For those of you who do not know the show, Maxwell Smart, who started at Control as an analyst, achieves his dream by becoming a special agent. He is a bumbling idiot, but somehow he always get his man.


Carell was a great choice for this role as he gives an incredible performance (as usual).

Highly recommend seeing this film.

Hulk Smash

4 Stars

So we went out to see The Incredible Hulk this past Tuesday and I must say it was great. It was great to see Ed Norton in an intense film again. The last great film I enjoyed him in was American History X.

Tim Roth was another big surprise, too. He did a great as a skillful soldier with a great lust for power.

Liv Tyler was okay, but a bit annoying as Elizabeth Ross, love interest of Banner. She seem like she was reliving Aewen (I could never spell that right).

Overall the film was well done. Still don't know if it was a sequel or not, but definitely better then the first.
