I just realized we have no movie thread !
I'll start.
I just watched She's out of my League and, although I was
expecting it to be good, I was still pleasantly surprised by how well
made and believable it was (apart from a few scenes). I could explain
the story but it wouldn't mean much. The title already says a lot about
what will happen in the movie (and so did the trailer), but what made
it good was the characters themselves (and the actors portraying them).
Before I started the film I was moody, no, I was pissed off actually. I
got work to do for an exam and it got me mad, long story. Anyway just a
few minutes into the movie I already had a smile on my face and it
stayed until after it was over. It's a very good movie for average joes
looking for hope
Recommended (7.5/10)
For the record, I'm a pretty harsh critic so 7.5 is very good on my scale

Title: Jennifer's Body
7/10
Most people won't like it, but don't take the movie seriously and
you'll probably enjoy it. It makes fun of itself, and there are plenty
of great lines throughout. "Nice hardware, ace". I probably wouldn't
have appreciated it if I was at all older..
Title: Moon
9/10
Best Sci-fi movie of 2009 IMO, nobody saw it. If anyone has seen
Sunshine, it's fairly similar though with less suspense. Really neat
setup, Sam Rockwell is a great actor (though he wasn't as good in Choke
or Iron Man 2..)
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
2/10
I went to a fancy art movie theater to see this supposedly awesome
movie.. The story was ridiculously predictable, the characters were
vaguely memorable, but all generic. The leading man was too ugly, like
distractingly ugly. Many unnecessary scenes (revenge rape, broken
bottle fight, corpse faces), waaaaay too long. The best part of the
movie was hearing people speak Swedish for two and a half hours.
Next movies I'm going to see are Wristcutters: A Love Story, Solaris
(the new one), Toy Story 3, and Eclipse (I was dragged to the previous
two as well).

Green Zone
7/10
Lotsa hype, ended up being rather generic. Still 7 points for making it in the first place I guess. Still kept me watching, so I guess it wasn't too bad
Still prefer somewhat similar Hurt Locker over this one.

It's interesting to hear your opinion on that. I'd have said Green Zone
8/10 and Hurt Locker 9/10 purely for having a more realistic and
dramatic (in a hard hitting way) story. Maybe not even the story, but
how it was portrayed. Also, you've got the "holy crap, he's in it, and
so is he!" factor with the Hurt Locker, whereas Green Zone was just
"Oh, it's him, and her, and him..". Green Zone was a very enjoyable
movie for me, but based purely on realism, accuracy and how the action
was put on screen, The Hurt Locker gets a slightly higher score from
me. The direction was absolutely amazing.

I thought The Hurt Locker was amazing until the part where Jeremy Renner's character takes off with his team into the night and one of the guys gets shot in the leg. That action just didn't seem to go with the Renner character's previous actions. Still easily a 9/10 though, wonderful movie.
