Paranormal Activity 2 (2010)
It's definitely an 'edge of your seat' movie.. much, much better than the first.
With a lot of people saying this movie 'sucks' or 'lacks any quality', the bottom line is that this movie is scary.. very scary.. It plays with your mind over and over and exponentially gets better over time. I saw the first movie in theaters and, while it was scary, the only scene that I can honestly say made me jump was the final scene. In this movie, however, there were a LOT more moments that make you jump out of your seat and have the 'wind knocked out of you'.
I thought people who said they saw people leaving the theater because it was so scary were exaggerating, but two girls literally up and ran out of the theater only to return ten minutes later when I saw this last night. If you haven't seen the first movie, definitely see it before seeing this. There are some tie-ins between the movies that you won't understand without having seen the first Paranormal Activity!
In short, the movie does its job: it scares the living hell out of you and makes your mind twist wondering what's happening. At the end, a lot of things come together so pay attention for the full duration of the movie! Don't miss anything, even little subtle things mentioned. It's all in there for a reason.
The Moment of Truth (2008)
Booooorrrrrriiiinnnnnnnngg....
This show is absolutely horrendous. From the commercials it looked like a very good idea for a show where the contestant would be taking a lie detector test WHILE ON THE SHOW IN THE HOTSEAT. Not so.. It appears the contestants took a polygraph test BEFORE sitting in the hot seat, and the whole point of the show is just for the contestants to relay the same answers they gave while taking the test-- only this time it's with a 45-second pause.
The host asks the contestant a general question before asking each TRUE/FALSE question, and it ALWAYS gives away what the actual TRUE/FALSE question will be. Way to ruin the show...
FOX claims that the show had 30Million viewers and is the most anticipated show of 2008.. BOGUS. Maybe that's just because it follows immediately after American Idol without even a commercial break between the two shows? So even if the entire American Idol audience tuned into "The Moment of Truth" for one second they can claim they had 30Million viewers.
THIS. SHOW. STINKS.
Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)
An Absolute Waste of Time... Walked Out to See 'I Am Legend'
This movie is god awful. It is a failed attempt at making fun of Walk the Line and contains no substance, but rather just 'shock value'. Everything said, done, and shown is simply for shock value and has no place in the storyline. Within the first 30 minutes, there were multitudes of the 'f-bomb' at unnecessary times, ridiculous references to marijuana and cocaine, naked men walking around and a flacid penis displayed on the screen for five seconds. It's simply a movie to watch if you want to see a director attempt to make his crowd shocked.. NOT for someone looking for a GOOD movie.
I walked out thirty minutes into this movie and saw 'I Am Legend'. Such a good decision.. Save your money and see something else.
I Am Legend (2007)
AMAZING Movie.. Left the Theater Blown Away and Speechless.
This movie is simply amazing. The storyline continuously throws you into different directions tying everything together and making sense of all of the things Will Smith is doing/experiencing. Not a stone is left unturned in this movie, and the storyline is tied together in an ingenious way. From the very first ten minutes of the movie until the final scene you simply do not know what is coming next. I don't want to spoil anything so all I can really say is that you MUST see this movie if you're looking to get a bang for your $9 ticket. Great acting, awesome special effects, slight comedy, a superb storyline, and great plot twists make this movie amazing.
