Take Shelter - Great performance by Shannon

The Dark Knight Rises - My third and probably final time I will see it in theaters, compared to my first(extremely conflicted) viewing, it has gotten better with each one.

Why? What happened?
 
It's seemed to have happened with more people than you think. It happened with me. It's just so different compared to the others and we're so used to the first two in their pacing. This is just a whole other animal.
 
The Three Stooges (2012) 7/10

I thought it was actually funny and they managed to capture the spirit of the Three Stooges. Also I watched this with really low expectations.

What a ride, but that ending pisses me off. Not in a sense that I hated it, but it was deflating. So much build up but what we got was a monologue by Jones.

9.5/10

non-endings are a stylistic thing for the Coen Brothers.
 
Police Academy 2
What I saw of these films is awesome. 9/10
 
The Thin Red Line - 9.7/ 10 - I'm really not a Malick fan (I especially can't stand Tree of Life) but this is f****** great. Possibly my favorite War film. Thank you for this one, Malick.

Super 8

I don't think it works. Technically speaking, JJ Abrams is an undeniably gifted director and he gets great work out of his young cast, especially Elle Fanning, who is simply luminous, but what is this movie about? Is it a coming of age story? About coming to grips with death? About familial repair? Young love? The misunderstood outsider? What does that climactic moment with the locket have to do with anything? What has anyone learned? How have these people grown? Where's the through line? This is a script that just doesn't work.
