Summer of Sam (4)
I am Sam (9)
Full Metal Jacket (4)
The Majestic (4)
Quills (7)
One of the recent movies that I just saw that I really liked was I am Sam. I really didn't expect much out of this film since I wasn't impressed with the previews. I have to say I really liked this movie a lot. It was filmed very well.. only a few minor moments in the script that could have used work..but overall a very good film. It's got a great soundtrack as well. I recommend them both.
When I came home from Ft. Worth today, I watched the Majestic. I was not impressed with this movie at all. I thought it was rather straight forward, great patriotic messsage, but just overflowing with nostalgia and sappyness. I was impressed that Carrey was able to pull off the character. In fact, the characters were all great, the script was fine, but the plot just lacked the complexity I was searching for.
I got the tv working up in my room. I think the cable connection is bad because the tv keeps going in and out. Oh well. I guess it'd be too much for everything to work out. I start my second round of summer class tomorrow. I'm hoping the workload will be light.
:/ we'll see.
