Transformers | 58 | Fun parts, silly parts, stupid parts. Good effects. More story than I was expecting, but there were too many characters. Glad I saw it finally, but I won’t likely see it again. |
Juno | 83 | A good film. Believable characters. Teenagers who acted like teenagers. Parents who weren’t caricatures. Can’t say I liked the music, but it fit. We’ll see Ellen Page (Juno) again. |
Meet the Robinsons | 75 | This was fun! And its characters are from a children’s book Adam owned in 1992. OK, somewhat predictable, but excellent animation and imaginative characters. |
Serenity | 80 | Now I wish I had seen “Firefly” and that it had lasted. Lots of actors we like. The story kept me interested. The bad guy was intriguing. We saw it in Mike & Tracy’s theater room – what an experience! |
I've actually started the re-ranking I first talked about in the 7th Edition of my Micro-Reviews. I have most of the reviews re-ranked in my alphabetical list of movies and my ranks and reviews. I probably have 40-50 left to re-rank, and then I have to review the changes to make sure things look right.
This weekend, we got to see "Serenity" in Mike & Tracy's theater room. What a way to watch movies! We're talking about turning part of the lowest basement into such a viewing area, once we can get the kids' stuff out of there. Likely a pipe dream, but we are movie people. It would be a fitting extravagance; self-indulgent, but fitting.
