02. Seen in July 2002

Tags: 
  • Vanilla Sky - I actually enjoyed the beginning of this movie, but I liked it less and less as it continued. By the end of the movie, I wasn't too impressed.
  • Ali - I really liked Will Smith in this- he was very charming. Overall a good movie.
  • A Beautiful Mind - This was the best movie I have seen in such a long time. I love this movie. Unlike most movies starring actors I don't like, I completely forgot that Nash was played by Russell Crowe because I was so absorbed in the character.
  • Dear God - This movie was very simple and boring.
  • Scooby-Doo - I really only have one thing to say: You know a movie is terrible when the best actor in it is Matthew Lillard (and that's coming from a Freaks and Geeks fan- Linda Cardellini's performance was subpar).
  • Men in Black II - I'm not ashamed to admit that I liked the first MIB , but this was terrible. It had no plot, and it wasn't really funny.
  • Hedwig and the Angry Inch - I was actually surprised at how much I liked this. It was funny, it had a great soundtrack, and it was kind of touching, but it's really hard for me to put into words why I enjoyed it so much. Possibly more thoughts to come after I figure it out...

Oh come now!
A Beautiful Mind? Really?
tsk-tsk.

Apparently I've disappointed you... I'd love to hear your opinion on A Beautiful Mind , but it probably won't change my mind; I really liked it. I rented Hedwig and I'll watch it tonight or tomorrow; I've heard such good things about it from you, I hope I'm not disappointed.
