The Sum of All Fears
Perfect Clancy. A bit schmaltzy and I couldn't get past the whole Ben Affleck/Jack Ryan as a young CIA dweeb in 2001 - The time leap just didn't make sense. Also, and this no fault of the movie, but with 9/11 and all, the whole 'Oooh, Scary Russian" thing just didn't work for me. I will say that Farmer Hoggett made a pretty great president though. And over all, good rock 'em sock 'em action flick. 6 out of 10.

Minority Report
What the fuck? Eeewww. No thanks. Stupid and creepy and any time you have strange psychic bald naked bodies floating in goo, something is not right. Badly done Kubrick wanna-be flick. So not what I expected from Spielberg. 3 out of 10.

Panic Room
Jodi Foster? God, how much do I want to turn her over adore her? Man oh man she just trips my trigger. Yum! Oh right, the movie... Home Alone meets Hitchcock. Great flick - finely crafted suspense with great twists and turns. The start of the movie was so dark and bleak I thought it would be too cliche and I was going to hate it. Nope! There were a few weak moments in the plot. But not enough to pull you out of the story. And a few of the pan shots were pretty "how'd they do that?" cool. 8 out of 10.

In other news: I've been feeling a little off my game lately. I think I'm PMSing or maybe it's just the holiday blues, but I've been incredibly blahed with just about everything. I'll have a boredom sandwich with malaise on the side. I think it's because I've been sitting on my ass watching movies and not exercising. And I've been eating nothing but your basic crap junk food except for dinner I made Sunday night. Maybe I'll make a good dinner tonight. As long as it doesn't interfere with Survivor. Now, I've not talked much about the whole reality TV season, but for anyone who watched Amazing Race - can you fucking believe that?! OMG - Flo was the biggest fucking loser crybaby. I just want to bitch slap her. She doesn't deserve a million bucks. But Zack? He earned twice that... the man is a saint. 'Nuf said.
