Movie reviews - also known as Allow Me To Save You Some Time

Ray - fabulous. I loved it. Jamie Foxx rocked in it. I had no idea Ray Charles was such a ho.

Cursed - seriously just the largest pile of dog shit ever. I am all for scary movies. I am all for campy scary movies. This just sucked.

Hotel Rwanda - 2/3 of the way through it and it's fabulous. It is rather emotional that we pretty much left those people to die because we Americans love to have that "we have our own problems here so let's act like none of what happens overseas matters" mentality. I had to take a break because I started hating myself.

Walk the Line - abso-fucking-lutely amazing. Joaquin (MEOW) is just hot in it and nails Johnny Cash completely. Y'all must go see now. I don't give a shit if you don't like country music. His performance is just stellar. I smell Oscar.

His story is a tragic one, but one I hope to read about.

at 10:00 AM Katie said...: Walk the Line was SO awesome! And Joaquin is abso-freakin-lutely HOT! He plays a better Johnny Cash than Johnny Cash could have played. And his VOICE! It makes me get all hot and bothered. I totally smell Oscar, too - both Phoenix and Witherspoon were amazing.

I haven't seen Ray - I want to see that one alot - as for Hotel Rwanda, I have heard that was totally bad ass. My next movie that I am DYING to see - Memoirs of a Geisha!!!
