#18 "Death Race"

So you ask yourself; "How does one create the perfect movie?"
I will tell you.
1. Have it star Jason Statham
2. Have lots of cars being demolished

Truly that is all that is really needed. Film makers really work too hard. This movie is great from beginning to end. Trust me you will not need to see any other films this year. As this one will run away with all of Academy Awards.
Best Film: Death Race
Best Actor: Jason Statham
Best Actress: Joan Allen
Best Supporting Actress: Natalie Martinez
Best Supporting Actor: Ian McShane
Best Director: Paul WS Anderson

I should also mention that this is the most politically charged film of the year. You want to see what John McCain's America will look like? Just see this film. It has it all; busted unions, broken down econmomy, corporations run amok. Of course though we need not worry, because Jason Statham will protect us.

All Hail Jason Statham

Death Race

#17 "Pineapple Express"

Ahh I loved this movie. It was hilarious from beginning to end. It was unexpectedly gory for a comedy, but none-the-less had the most realistic fight scene between three idiots ever filmed. Another film from the world of Judd Apatow and friends they just keep striking gold. Lastly the best line is also the only line in Hollywood's history as well as it's future to include the junker of a car Daewoo Lanos. I will laugh whenever I see one again.

#16 "Incredible Hulk"

The action movie bonanza continues with Incredible Hulk. I really liked this movie. Almost as much as "Iron Man." It was interesting to learn that this movie is tied in with "Iron Man," and that they are the first two films of a series that will be released over the next few years culminating with an Avengers film that includes all the characters together on a team. I definitely am looking forward to teh furure films. I find these comic book films to be much better than the path that "Dark Knight" has taken. Though Dark Knight was a better film, it is nowhere near as much fun to watch.

#15 "The Warriors"

Caught this classic film on midnight movie two nights ago. It always a fun film to watch as cheer on The Warriors gang through the city as they fight their way home past rival gangs such as The Orphans, the Turnbull ACs, and the Baseball Furies. If you are looking for afun and rowdy time pick it up.

#14 "Wanted"

UGH!! This movie was awful. I have difficulty even saying what was dumb because so much of it was. James McCavoy was horrible, the plot is ludicrous, and it breaks all kinds of records as far as pure callousness towards violence in a film.

Not Recommended
"Wanted"

#13 "The Dark Knight"

Well we went and saw this opening weekend like everyone else. Its everything that you have already heard. An incredible movie. It reminded me of "No Country For Old Men" in the way that its a very good movie, but you can't really rave about it, and you don't necessarily want to see it again. The one thing I didn't like about it was a scene involving Batman and Morgan Freeman's character where they rip off the classic James Bond gadjit scene. Perhaps they were trying to do an homage, but it just came off as awkward as opposed to funny. Also don't let kids near this film. They will have nightmares for years.
