| Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 | 83 | Very faithful in theme to the first part of the book. The isolation forced upon, and felt by, the three main characters is well represented. Definitely the middle part of a three-part story begun in The Half-Blood Prince. I can’t imagine ever watching this without watching Part 2 quite soon afterward, if we have the choice. And when seen in that context, I might raise its rating. |
| Pirates of the Caribbean 4 | 66 | Fun, but not nearly as well told as the original, and missing a real love story. |
| Mortal Thoughts | 54 | Old, and shows it. OK, but not worth recommending unless you really like crime dramas with Demi Moore. |
| X-Men: First Class | 82 | A worthy entry in the genre. I liked the Xavier/Lehnsherr relationship. Kevin Bacon made a good villain. Mystique as a teenager – loved it. Consistency with the comics must be sacrificed. A couple of cameos made me smile – even laugh! Rating: Remember this – I am “easy” when it comes to the X-Men. Always will be. |
