Movies I haven't seen but want to
- The Dilemma
My sister saw this movie just to get out of the house, and she loved it. She said it was absolutely hysterical.
- I Am Number Four
It was OK, the main reason I went to see it was for the actors. Alex Pettyfer, Teresa Palmer, Dianna Agron, and even Callan McAuliffe.
- The Adjustment Bureau
I didn't originally want to watch this but I'm a big Matt Damon fan, and it didn't look that bad so I watched it and I actually quite liked it. It's not one of my favorite or anything but it was pretty good.
- Beastly
Again, I watched this because Alex Pettyfer was in it and it was based off of a book I really liked. It's definitely a predictable movie, but I knew that going into it. This movie was just bad, not the worst but just not good.
- The Lincoln Lawyer
Basically Ryan Phillippe's in it so I want to see it.
- Sucker Punch
My friend saw this movie and said it was one of the worst movies she'd ever seen. It was completely depressing.
- Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules
Just a feel good movie; plus, I saw the first movie.
- Source Code
Not much to say I just liked it, the back and forth. And they add a few twist at the end, that I won't spoil.
- Soul Surfer
Carrie Underwood is my favorite female singer that's the main reason I want to see this.
- The Conspirator
Just one bad thing you all should be warned about, the title is misleading. The film focuses on Mary Surratt, who was probably not one of the conspirators it was her son, who was missing most of the movie. That being said it's a really good historical movie.
- Water for Elephants
This one is probably my favorite from the year. It was also another I didn't plan on watching but ended up and it was just simply amazing. Due to the fact my sister hate Robert Pattinson, and I feel most people who didn't watch this was because of him, my sister loved the movie just as much as I did. So, go see it.
- Thor
Just a good superhero movie. I don't read comics but I love superhero movies.
- Bridesmaids
Everyone has talked so highly of this movie, so I feel I should watch it.
- Midnight in Paris
[ Same as Bridesmaids ]
- Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides
I've watched the whole series, I'm not stopping because they get rid of my favorite characters. If that was why you didn't watch it, a few new characters were added that somewhat made up the difference.
- The Art of Getting By
It was OK, but honestly it was pretty static, not much happened. I was just glad to see Freddie Highmore again.
- Mr. Popper's Penguins
Sadly, I thought this was one of the worst movies of the year.
- Cars 2
I'm a huge fan of Cars and Mater was always my favorite character, so Cars 2 which focuses on Mater was amazing for me.
- Transformers: Dark of the Moon
I never really liked Megan Fox but I did think about kind of protesting because she wasn't in it, but I didn't and I actually liked this one. Rosie did much better than I expected [which was nothing], and Shia just did amazing.
- Monte Carlo
Looks like a lame feel good movie, plus Cory Monteith is in it.
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II
Honestly, I preferred Part 1 but Harry Potter never disappoints me.
- Crazy, Stupid, Love
Just a good comedy
- The Help
I don't think it's the best movie like a lot seem to think, but it was good. There was such an even balance of serious and comedy.
- Glee: The 3D Concert Movie
First, I have to warn you all I'm against 3D. Second, I wasn't planning on seeing this, but I went to the premiere because I love Glee and at the end they gave out tickets, so I went. The 3D isn't very apparent, other than that it's just a concert movie.
- One Day
Jim Sturgess is my favorite actor, Anne Hathaway, however, I don't like. I watched it anyways because the story still seemed amazing. Unfortunately, it really wasn't good.
- Drive
Ryan Gosling, and I imagine some good car chases!
- Moneyball
Inspirational sports film, and it's gotten a lot of good press.
- The Ides of March
I honestly don't know why I want to see this but I really want to.
- Footloose
My sister saw this and said it was terrible.
- The Three Musketeers
Orlando Bloom and Logan Lerman
- J. Edgar
I went to see this because my sister loves Leo, but she ended up not coming-- her lose. It was great; the chemistry between characters was the best.
- The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1
I'm a fan of the book, not of the movies. However, this was the best so far.
- Hugo
OK, technically my sister watched this but she hated it. I refuse to believe it can be that bad so this one I'm not going to trust her opinion.
- My Week With Marilyn
Emma Watson is the first reason that I cared, but then I actually saw the trailer and it looks really good.
- The Artist
Another one with a lot of great press.
- New Year's Eve
If you liked Valentine's Day then you'll like this, but if you're like me and didn't like it then you won't like this one either.
- Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
Sherlock Holmes, Robert Downey Jr., and Jude Law-- this was better than the first. I loved it
- We Bought a Zoo
Matt Damon, and a cute kid
- War Horse
This has gotten a lot of mixed reviews, I simply loved it.
