Last Week was a bad week for movies. There were a lot of contenders for Razzies. Let's see what we have this week.
1) The Descendants: Deadbeat Dad loses his wife and not has to raise his two girls alone.
The Good: George Cloony knows how to do drama.
The Bad: it's blatent Oscar bait. You have been warned.
Final Thoughts: My guess is that it'll be a very dramatic movie, but there's nothing new here. George Cloony will probably carry the movie so, yeah. Watch it.
2) Tomboy: A little girl with short hair is mistaken for a boy and she goes along with that so she can be one of the boys.
The Good: It's a movie about relationships and how children treat each other.
The Bad: This movie was already made back in the early '80s. (Just One of the Guys [1985])
Final Thoughts: I liked Just One of the Guys. This one is slightly different since it's 10 year olds and less of a comedy. Should be interesting.
3) Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 Bella and Edward get married and have a baby.
The Good: I have no words. I'm in aw that Twilight has such a rabid following.
The Bad: The romance is a joke, the acting is terrible, and the story is embarrassing.
Final Thoughts: Why should I care when a sociopath marries a monster? Think God it's almost over.
4) Happy Feet 2: Mumble's son Erik is afraid to dance. And then Erik comes to aadmire a penguin who can fly.
The Good: It's a cute idea. I'm glad the series is having some fon with itself.
The Bad: It's for kids. Adults without kids are not going to enjoy it that much.
Final Thoughts: Please take your kids to see it. They'll love it.
5) Tyrannosaur: A hopeless drunk meets a good Christian woman who helps him change his ways and he helps her get away from her abusive husband.
The Good: It sounds like a good heart-warming drama.
The Bad: Why is this movie called Tyrannosaur if there arent' any dinosaurs? Or anything even remotely involving dinosaurs?
Final Thoughts: It's a simple story told well. Much like Gran Turino, it's a dramatic story of redemption and helping out our fellow human beings. Just don't expect any dinosaurs.
See you at the movies.
