Still Drifting About

Summer Movie Rewind

August 21, 2007 · 4 Comments

I have compiled a list of movies that I watched from the time the kids got out of school until the time they went back to school.  It really wasn’t too many but it did average about 1 film per week.  In no particular order they are:

  1. Pirates of the Caribbean 3 (not bad)
  2. Shrek 3 (not bad but not as good as Pirates 3 to me)
  3. Hairspray (awesome saw it twice)
  4. The Simpsons Movie (funny but not quite as good as I was hoping)
  5. Nancy Drew (my boys wanted to see this- wait for DVD not worth the $$$)
  6. Room 1408 (awesome and creepy like a Twilight Zone episode)
  7. Sunshine (worst movie ever)
  8. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (lots of fun and a must for HP fans)
  9. Stardust (Loved it-new hottie alert for the guy who plays Tristan-DeNiro and Pfeiffer stole the show)
  10. License To Wed (better than I thought it would be)
  11. Bourne Ultimatum (OMG Matt Damon kicks butt!)
  12. Becoming Jane (my crush on James McAvoy continues to grow)
  13. No Reservations (*yawn*)

So as you can see, lots of kids movies which makes sense since they accompanied me most of the time.  There are some HUGE movies we missed like Spiderman 3 and Transformers.  I guess we’ll get those when they come out on DVD.  I think the movie I enjoyed watching the most was Hairspray or Bourne Ultimatum.  I absolutely HATED Sunshine.  It was terrible.  It was trying to be clever like 2001: A Space Odyssey yet scary like Event Horizon.  Instead it turned out to be a muddled BORING mess.  I didn’t care for No Reservations either.  That was pretty boring for a chick flick.  I must give a special nod to Stardust.  I really liked this one too.  It is in my top 3 for sure.
