Pay your bills to keep the Repo Men away.

Aight, I was actually looking forward to this movie. It was a movie that I truly knew nothing about, until someone completely explained it all to me. It was a purely innocent move, and I have no ill will what-so-ever. In fact, after hearing more about the flick, I was even more intrigued.

Repo Men is the story of a group of men who's day job is to repossess artificial organs from people who can no longer afford the payments on them. Unfortunately, one of the Repo Men has to get an artificial organ of his own and becomes the target of his own kind.

The flick starts off like an episode of Dexter. It basically gets to the point the way the opening credits of the show does. Of course Dexter is merely going through his morning routine and it is just made to look bad, but Repo Men goes right into the day job of these men. Lots of gore, lots of oooo's and ahhh's, but no one there to say "He went to Jared." My point is, if you have a weak stomach, you might want to check in your weak sauce at the gate.

Since that is out of the way, I would like to say I really enjoyed the acting. Jude Law and Forest Whitaker do a fantastic job together. They make Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan look like bitch rookies. Add in Liev Schreiber and you've got yourself a winning combination.

The story line is intriguing as well. Not so much the cliche, "I went from the hunter to the hunted," but the idea of artificial organs and repo men who come to get them. Because of this scenario, the movie is set in the future. I don't really think anyone could tell us what the future holds, except the physic on Collins St., but I think it was well designed and well received.

However, the great acting and the great story couldn't disguise how crappy the story telling is. The movie was done horribly. Nothing kills a story more than a shitty story teller. Not only that, but I found myself bored at several spots within the flick. And the fact that they chose elevator music as background doesn't really help the situation either. And some parts where real cheesy and predictable.

I can say this about the flick though... I loved the ending. This is more of a personal note. If you know me, I am sure you could understand why I loved this ending. If you don't, well.... you pretty much have no fucking idea. The ending alone made up a lot of ground for the flick in my opinion, which is pretty much what this whole thing is about.

I have to give this flick a one night stand out of a cherry pit (2 out of 5). But you should probably watch it just for the ending... and then hate me for it. ;)

She's not out of my league

Yep. This one probably ends the way you think it will. It is a pretty easy happy go lucky movie.

But you know what, I actually liked it.

She's out of my league is about a guy who isn't very attractive who begins to date a girl who is quite the opposite. Sounds plenty plain, but it was actually well done.

And I personally don't think the girl was a 10. But she wasn't bad at all. Definitely wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers.

The acting wasn't bad.

The best part of the movie is the dialog. It is very cleverly written with some great one liners.

The movie is also very spontaneous. It was like watching Harold and Kumar for the first time. Cracked me up. Was worth every min.

The previews definitely didn't give away all the movie. However, the ending is very predictable. I have to give an orgy out of a cherry pit (4 out of 5).

Ohh, and BTW, if you like old Disney films, you will definitely get some of the jokes that only Baby Girl and I were laughing at.

Alice isn't so Wonderful

Aight. Sorry it has been a little while, but yeah, I saw Alice in Wonderland.

If you had any kind of Disney focused childhood or like the works of C.S. Lewis then you have an idea on how the storyline goes.

So the storyline isn't bad. But the movie sure is. I was fighting to stay awake. I heard more laughs for a preview than what I actually heard in the movie.

It was Tim Burton, so it was a little on the dark side. It did have Johnny Depp, but that really didn't help the situation. He did well in his role, but everything else was pretty much crap.

There is one good thing to say. It is hard to make Anne Hathaway look bad. She was dressed like shit but she still was hot. How can this be? You should watch the flick to see for yourself.

I have to give this flick a masturbation session out of a cherry pit (1 out of 5).

I did see two other movies recently....

Cop Out is a flick with Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan who are two cops who get involved with some Mexican mafia gangsters.

The story line was kind of clever, but the acting really wasn't. Bruce and Tracy really don't go well together at all. If there was any decent acting, it was from the Mexican Mafia leader, but he is the guy from half-baked (I'm Cuban Bee).

There was a few clever laughs in there, but they try to make it seem like Bruce and Tracy have been partners forever, but the acting shows they are still feeling out each other.

I give this flick a one night stand out of a cherry pit (2 out of 5).

I also saw Shutter Island.

The big problem I saw with that flick was that if you saw the previews, you could probably take a very educated guess on how the movie was going to end.

The acting was that bad, but I did think the movie was very well made. The dreams seemed realistic, and the time frame seemed believable too. My favorite part was how the music track was used like an old horror flick.

If it weren't for the previews, this movie may have not have been that bad. I have to give the movie a threesome out of a cherry pit (3 out of 5)
