Yippee ki-yay mother-daughter--For many years until my betamax copy gave up, watching Die Hard had been part of my Christmas tradition, and now thanks to my revitalized interest, I just might start it all over again if I can find a DVD of it and possibly of Die Hard 2. (I didn't take to Die Hard 3 too well so I'll skip that.) Bruce Wilis plays a world-weary and weathered John McClaine and pairs up with a youthful every-geek Justin "I'm a Mac" Long (whom I liked best in Galaxy Quest) against Timothy Olyphant whose distractingly handsome countenance was too reminiscent of Ryan Seacrest's. All in all, it was two hours of brainless, almost mind-numbing, explosive fun. Salon

Robots in the skies--Growing up as a Transformers fanboy (I owned a bunch of 'em starting with a couple of Diaclones and even drew a comic book starring my own rip-offs, I mean, homages), I was very wary of director Michael Bay pissing all over my childhood with all the changes he put in (he retained the voice of Optimus Prime, to his credit), but I came out rather enjoying this frenetic kinetic flick unapologetic about its summer blockbuster-ness. Shia LaBeouf provided the heart and hearty laughs, and ILM delivered some CG-eye-popping animation. I just had problems with the robot designs being on the flimsy side and the camera jerking around like crazy during the action sequences. Now to see if I can get myself a DVD of Transformers: The Movie or should I say, still the movie.

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.)

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

Lucky You--I learned Texas Hold 'em from Celebrity Poker Showdown so I really enjoyed how the game scenes played out, but I won't bore you guys with my poker puns since I mainly went to this movie to ogle Eric Bana. Deal? D'oh! 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.
