The following is simply a personal list of the movies I've seen recently and a generic thought or two about each one:
Crazy Stupid Love: Hilarious, but typical. Very well developed plot twist.
An Education: After watching Up in the Air a couple months ago, I wasn't as shocked. Yet, it was a good commentary on the place of women in 1960s England. Interesting use of Clive Staples as well.
Strangers on a Train: A brilliant work of Hitchcock's. How could one not love? If I were to make a list of must-see movies, this would be included.
Easy A: Per recommendation of pops, a treat. A little vulgar, but funny.
Waiting for Superman: Every teacher and parent should watch and think about the consequences. Sometimes though, I didn't like how the music forced you to think a certain way. Hard to explain, but after auditing a film class, one is more prone to note the cinematic cues.
The Rebound: Silly.
Midnight in Paris: Thank you Woody Allen for coming back with something more your style. Owen Wilson recreates your personality (or at least what I sense of it from your other flicks) to a T.
Ramona and Beezus: Aww shucks. Even teared up a couple times.
Sixteen Candles: For Eva's sake--to educate her on the John Hughes flicks. Thanks Easy A for making a reference to almost all of them.
Source Code: Surprisingly, good. Not what I expected, although it does have a lot of gaps it couldn't possibly realistically cover.
The end. Good story, I know.
