Food to Watch With: Stay home and have dinner with friends or your wife instead.

Plot Synopsis: Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake do thier own version of "Love and Other Drugs" and "No Strings Attached" to prove to everyone they are just as slutty.

Review: I can hear it now. "You didn't see this movie, how can you judge it". All those dudes out there who are like, "I went to see it cause Kunis is a great actress." or "There was a story behind it, a love story, which you wouldn't know because you didn't see it." Well, I'm going to have the toss the bull**** card your way. That's like saying you go to Hooters for the wings (I cannot tell you how many times I've heard that), its stupid, dis-honest and insulting. Kunis might be a great actress, and who knows, there might be an okay story hidden in there. But that "good" story was not why they made this movie, that is not what they advertised and that is not what people went to see. The obvious point of this movie was sex and sex and sex without consequence. Shame on the studio for producing the movie, shame on the actors for being in it and shame on you if you went to see it. If you didn't go see it for the obvious reasons, try to keep others from going and keep up the good fight staying away from these things. Also, to those that did go: those weren't Kunis's boobs, they were a doubles so you lose twice. Losers.

Life Lessons: If you went to this movie, your life lesson is that you need Jesus.

Summary: I think I've summed it up pretty good

Transformers: Dark of the Moon

Movie: Transformers: Dark of the Moon

Main Actors: Shia LaBeouf, Josh Duhamel, Optimus, Megatron, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

MPAA Rating: PG-13

Passionate Expressions: Some, not as many as in the past films (it felt that way anyway).

Useless Vulgar Language: Also seemed diminished from the last film, but I was pretty amped for this one so I’m not sure I trust my judgment on that.

Sex in a Good Light: Maybe if it was opposite day.

Sex in a Bad Light: Not as much as the second one, but it was there. I mean come on, they had a Victoria's Secret model with no acting experience take on one of the main roles, what else would you expect.

Manly Violence: Tons done by the military characters

Action Violence: I’m going to count all the violence done by Shia and Patrick Dempsey in this chategory because they were both sissy whiners. What's that you say, I didn’t mention that Patrick was in this movie. Oops, I must have forgotten about him in the same way he has forgotten where he put his manhood..

Pointless Violence: I didn’t see any of this.

Manly Rating: A (again, because of the military scenes)

Scorecard
Cinematography: A
Visual Effects: A+ (they have gotten better with each movie)
Sound/Score: A
Story: C
Acting: F (unless I'm ranking the acting of the robots in which case it was a B)

Food to Watch With: Lots and lots of cheese.

Plot Synopsis: Space robots continue fighting over us poor earthlings.

Review: I’ll just say this upfront. The 3D was awesome. The robot on robot fights were awesome and the military on robot fights were awesome. Anytime a human actor that was not part of the military was in the scene it got stupid. Shia’s character went from being a 16 year old in the second movie to a 12 year old in this one. Bay had some extra Africa footage leftover from somewhere and decided to put it in this movie. Navy Seals just kind of swim around the rivers of Chicago and Megatron can be convinced to act like a toddler by a girl who thinks that painting her pants on is the epitome of awesomeness. Did this review seem disjointed, well, now you know what the movie was like... Just like the others, some parts were awesome, some parts were terrible but you better believe if more robot aliens show up to make us their human toy puppets I will pay 15 dollars to sit in a chair for three hours eating five hour old popcorn. I love you Optimus.

Life Lessons: Even though robots are made out of metal it does not hurt when you are slammed against them and Victoria's Secret models show no emotion even when the world is being destroyed.

Summary: Same as the other two, wanted more of one thing and less of another.

Would I Watch This Again: Maybe in 3D.

Useless Vulgar Language: Again, nothing worth mentioning.

Sex in a Good Light: There was some kissing, but there was nothing very sexual about this movie.

Sex in a Bad Light: I agree with myself in the above statement.

Manly Violence: Yes

Action Violence: Nope

Pointless Violence: Nope

Manly Rating: A-

Food to Watch With: Tea and Crumpets.

Plot Synopsis: Boy/man wizard defeats evil undead ugly wizard in a climatic showdown that destroys Hogwarts.

Review: Let me start this off by being honest. I have never seen any of the previous Harry Potter movies and I have never read the books. At first I didn’t watch them because I wasn’t in the country, then I figured I would read the books first and before I knew it the last one was out and I had no idea about anything. So, I went to go see this one so I could at least see one of them in the theater. Don’t worry Potter fans, I won’t comment on the story too much until I’ve seen the other ones. I will say that I enjoyed it. It was darker and more of a mature story then I thought it would be and I felt that it was acted and directed well. It is always nice to see a story as vast as this one given the time it needs to be successful. The filming was not rushed and the audience was given time to mull over not just what the characters were saying but how they were saying it. At times I felt like I was watching a tragedy and I was able to piece enough of the back-story together to get a little choked up at times. This is a great movie to watch with your kids when you are wanting them to start understanding more serious movies. While I wouldn’t say it was as good as Lord of the Rings, I would place it in the same realm and I would say it did deserve the applause the audience gave at the end of the movie.

Life Lessons: Bad guys, just like good guys, need to get better at determining when their enemy is actually dead.

Summary: Great movie that dealt with tough subjects and carried a lot of emotion and maturity

Would I Watch This Again: Yep, once I get done watching the others.
