Angels and Demons

ANGELS AND DEMONS - Maybe we're just suckers for conspiracy and the provocative, but we liked this movie. All this historical fiction stuff seems believable enough to us. How can somebody just make ALL of this stuff up? Not to be all blasphemous, but isn't his stuff just like religion itself where the believers believe and the non-believers don't? About as good or better than the first Dan Brown-adapted movie. Kept our attention. Intriguing. Entertaining. Reading his new book now...

FUNNY PEOPLE - I'm beginning to think that Adam Sandler is smarter than he is goofy. I always like his movies. Well, for the most part. I actually think that he's a better actor than people give him credit for. His acting ability and charisma is what separates him from, say, Chris Rock. I find Leslie Mann (Apatow's wife) to be somewhat attractive. Yeah, I have a thing for smart, funny, attractive women. Check my wife. Seth Rogen was in this. Hilarious and endearing, as usual. And slimmer. Eric Bana was there for his accent and eye candy for the women. He was surprisingly pretty funny, too. That funny, fat White guy with the afro was in it, too. He's been everywhere lately. All in all, the usual Apatow formula. Dysfunction, raunch, humor, and heart. We like that mix. Probably live that mix...

OBSERVE AND REPORT - Seth Rogen and Anna Faris and her big t!tt!es. Couldn't help but notice them. I was a bit offended. Okay, not really. She sounds and looks like someone who works at our school. Hmmm... This movie was a kinda sick, dark comedy. And so, of course, I liked it. It was like PAUL BLART: MALL COP on steroids. The kinda movie where you can't believe they actually said "this and that" there or beat the $hit outta this person in that scene or threw in an over-the-top raunchy moment right in the middle of this scene. Obviously, unpredictability is my cup of tea, so I enjoyed this one. If you don't drink tea and only like to teabag, (hrrr, hrrr, hrrr, hrrr!) you might wanna stay clear of this one, though...

NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2 - Sooooooo gooooooood that everyone fell asleep, except me. Interesting learning a little bit about history, but not as good as the first one. More known actors involved. I kinda like Amy Adams' acting. Some funny parts, but I can't see how this is a kids' movie. Probably why they fell asleep. Felt like I was watching TRANSFORMERS 2 where they busted out even more new characters to spice it up, but then the audience has too many people to keep track of, which actually waters down the movie a bit. Or maybe I'm just retarded. They sure could've used Megan Fox, though. Maybe as Cleopatra or Helen of Troy, the face that launched a thousand ships. Just dropping some knowledge on you. That's how I roll...

THE COVE - This was a documentary about them sneaky Nips who actually have a secret cove in a small, out-in-the-boonies town where they slaughter dolphins by the thousands (not exaggerating) to make money for their country. Crazy disturbing to the point where you're wondering how they get away with this $hit. This one Flipper dude has been trying for years to put a stop to this madness to no avail. Greed makes people turn the other way, I guess. One of the better documentaries I've seen in awhile. Those sneaky Nips. Better check your Genki Sushi...


Pretty good movies this time around. Gotta make use of my Furlough Fridays...

Angels and Demons was way better than Da Vinci Code...both the book and the movie. We haven't read The Lost Symbol yet...but Dave's dad said it was not bad and though there were some inaccuracies, it was pretty good in telling truth about Masons. He didn't tell us what was for real and what was fake, though.

The only thing that kind of bothered me about Angels and Demons was that I kept waiting for the Camerlengo to bust out into song...
