Working in a movie theater, I find myself watching A LOT of movies, and I usually have an opinion for all the one's I've seen. In a normal month, I usually see about five movies.
So far this month, I've already seen seven, and have plans to see at least three more before the month is over. Of these seven, six have been on the big screen in the theater.
I started my month off with "Wrath of the Titans" :A fairly unnecessary sequel to 2010's "Clash of the Titans." While "Wrath" was much better than "Clash," I wasn't overly impressed. The 3D was much better than "Clash," as was the plot, but the acting still seemed wooden.
Next up, was the 3D re-release of "Titanic," but since that movie is 15 years old, it doesn't really count. It hasn't changed. SPOILER! The boat still sinks. ;)
After three hours and fifteen minutes of Titanic, I decided to see "The Avengers" the next night. To make a long story short, SEE. THIS. MOVIE. NOOOWWW!!"The Avengers is by far the best movie of the year! (so far) Get to your local theater and see it as soon as possible. You can thank me later.
Knowing full well that no movie could live up to "The Avengers" in sheer awesomeness, I went to "Dark Shadows" two days later with an open mind. I had no idea what to expect. The movie wan't too bad, and it kept me entertained. My only nitpick (and its a minor one) was the tone. One minute it was a comedy, the next a serious romantic drama, the next a horror film. It couldn't quite make up its mind what it wanted to be.
Four days later, I watched "The Three Stooges."To make this story short as well, Only see it if you remember the old Three Stooges shorts. If you liked them, you will like this movie. The movie wasn't terrible, it just seemed to drag in places.
Just last night, I saw "The Raven." The reviews have been fairly negative, but this was once again a case of the critics not quite knowing what they're talking about. I found the film quite enjoyable, in a weird sort of way.
Before this month ends, I will be seeing "The Lucky One", "Men in Black 3", and (even though it doesn't count) "The Avengers" for a second time. Until then, thanks for reading, and leave your comments below.
Until next time :)
