Jolly good show, aar matey--As someone who found Dead Man's Chest a tad strung out, I very much enjoyed At World's End mostly for tying up loose ends albeit in a rather complicated knot of plots (Salon). Nevertheless, it was the whole yarn of fun with Geoffrey Rush and Johnny Depp leading the fray. (And that Tom Hollander is so cute.) If Disney does decide to continue the franchise, I suggest they thread carefully and spin it off as this particular band of pirates' tale has been told. (By the way, don't leave the theater until after the credits are through.)

Shrek the Turd--Damn, I really had high hopes of getting the good laughs considering how much I enjoyed Shrek 2, but alas, the third time was the chump. Sure, the movie gave me some giggles (especially that Snow White scene), but its story wasn't anywhere as smart as its predecessors. Chris Miller's directorial debut was a dud.

Fracture--It's hard for me to imagine this movie stars the same Ryan Gosling from Young Hercules, a show I never expected anyone to break out from. (Remember Ian Bohen? I didn't.) Being nominated for an Oscar for Half Nelson and now holding his own against Oscar-winner Sir Anthony Hopkins, he's grown quite a lot as an actor (and a hottie!) since the last time I watched him in Murder by Numbers. Now I have to check out his movies I've missed. Salon

The Fountain--Thought to self upon leaving the theater: That. Was. Fucked. Up. Don't get me wrong, the visuals were amazing, Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz were great (as was seeing My Name is Earl's Ethan "Randy" Suplee as a frickin' doctor), and the story wrapped itself up admirably, but... man... what a head trip. I want whatever writer/director Darren Aronofsky was smokin' when he made this film.

Spider-Man 3--Sometimes there's nothing better than months of anticipation ending in a very satisfying culmination. I really hope the gang sticks around for at least one more flick, but with this movie already busting all previous budget records, it'd be interesting to see how the cast and crew's contract renegotiations will turn out.
