I walked out of Transformers.
Agreed, Adaptation showed that the guy can really act. He was also good in Raising Arizona, Moonstruck and Leaving Las Vegas - but holy heck his agent should be flogged with some of the casting decisions. The remake of the Wicker Man was a particularly egregious error.

Anyone who thought Ghost Rider 2 was going to NOT suck should have their head examined.

The first one was bad, barely worth watching, and the previews for the 2nd looked even worse than the first movie. And remember, previews always show the best parts.

Just caught This Means War. It was much more entertaining than I assumed it would be.

She looks as good as she always has looked. I was hoping for more of a shot in her underwear but what you see in the previews is pretty much what they show. I thought Chelsea Handler was pretty funny in it. Someone told me she is the same age as Reese. Wow she has had a rough life apparently if she is the same age as Reese. Anyways it was a decently entertaining.

Handler is one year older, but I get what you are saying. I think a major difference is that Handler has unabashingly been drinking and smoking it up for a couple decades while Witherspoon was into fitness, eating healthy, etc. I imagine good genetics plays a factor as well.

She did. There was a scene where she was in the shower singing and Cage walked in to tell her to get the baby. There was nice side boob and a butt shot.

Ok that is good. You confirmed what I heard last night and now I won't waste my time checking it out. My cousin said he was an hour into it and was bored to tears. He said he couldn't really get into it at all. I have another cousin who said he liked it and that his dad about died laughing at 2 parts of the flick but that cousin is a huge Depp fan and would probably buy a video tape of Depp finger painting so his opinion doesn't mean anything. Ha

That is disappointing though. I enjoy a lot of Depp's movies but I guess they can't all be winners.

I agree and enjoyed it. I thought the chase action and fighting action was good.

Ha yeah that does take it down a notch. I was only partially interested until I noticed it had like a 65 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. I will probably end up checking it out instead of Act of Valor.

Friends with Benefits is a very entertaining movie. You don't need "any good scenes?" to watch it. It's entertaining enough to enjoy it (but to answer your question, I think there was a scene or two; can't remember).

High hopes for Project X which releases this coming weekend....but I am worried it will suck since it had no advanced screenings for critics.

Also, anyone catch Wanderlust? I may catch a matinee, but the reviews are mixed.

If you are watching with a chick, it's solid.

Pretty much. I hold out hope because it is Todd Phillips.
