Indiana Jones, dont read this if you havn't seen the movie!

I went an saw Indiana Jones on Tuesday. It was fantastic.

Acting was great. I was afraid that Shia LeBouf was going to make me mad, but I think he did a great job. Harrison Ford was totally believable as an older Indiana Jones.

Special effects were great also. Explosions, gun fight scenes, car chases all were done a lot better than in say temple of doom.

The only weak point was in the story. I thought the plot was good, but I saw basically the same story when I watched National Treasure 2 a few months ago. City of gold, under waterfall, the only difference was the interdementional being that escapes in huge flying saucer at the end. Not great, but better than I thought it was going to be.

Sound track was good. Not a lot of original songs, but a lot of 50's songs that fit the period setting of the movie great.

Overall, I give it an 8. You should go see this movie.

Iron Man

Thanks to positive reviews from my peeps like Mike Lewis, I paid the $9 to go watch Iron Man.

I am trying to come up with some non-positive things to say about it, however the only thing I can come up with is Freakin Sweet!

Good acting. Robert Downey Jr. has somehow pulled off the role as a rich drunk womanizing bastard. Jeff bridges as a bad guy, genus!

Special effects. Awesome! Totally awesome. From the suit to the explosions, nothing seemed hokey or over done.

Soundtrack. ACDC and Sabbath.

Dialog. It was really well written. As for it being a comic book movie, the best written film yet. The jokes were funny, the responses perfect. Even the evil taunting of the bad guy doesn't seem over the top.

Explosions, guns, iron fighting suits, humor, jet fighters

National Treasure.

I know it’s not a blockbuster, but I just saw the movie, National Treasure: The Book of Secrets, and really enjoyed it.
A friend of mine said he didn’t care for it, calling it “full of action, no real story line, and totally lacking reality”. That is exactly the kind of movie I want to watch. If I wanted to watch something boring, following a well laid out plot line, and totally realistic I would buy the Little House on the Prairie TV box set.
Plus, it’s almost like a little piece of Indiana Jones to get me though till the real one comes out.
