Charlie Wilson's War



RENT

With Toms Hanks and Julie Roberts, any movie is good, but this one is mediocre at best. The story just isn't there, and it's kind of boring for a movie with so many A list celebrities. I forgot to mention Phillip Seymour Hoffman is even there. This must have been a political made movie.

I Am Legend



RENT

This definitely could have been better with Will Smith. I thought it would be more like Armageddon, where the world has ended and they find a way to survive. However, this is more like Resident Evil or a zombie movie. That's disappointing. It spoils the whole mystery of things.

Michael Clayton



RENT

This definitely could have been better. It had lots of potential but it was all wasted. It had a great story but they didn't do much with it. George Clooney is always in boring films. I don't know why.

American Gangster



RENT

Denzel Washington is good as usual, but this film could have been a top seller. Now it's only mediocre. It needed a better story and more action. It seems that not much is going on, even though he is head of the mafia. It should be more like the Godfather.

In the Valley of Elah



RENT

Great acting by Tommy Lee Jones and Charlize Theron in a film about the sad state of the United States. Based on the current Iraqi war, soldiers are coming home and they are totally screwed up mentally. You hear stories of this in the news everyday, but I don't know if people realized that it is a critical issue.
