Because everyone has an opinion on movies it seems. It makes it darned near impossible to enter a theatre without expectations. Sometimes I set my own expectations based on an actor and or director I've liked in the past. So, I often find myself filing movies I've seen in three categories: 1. Exceeded expectations 2. Met Expectations 3. Let down.
Over the years I've grown cynical of the summer blockbuster season because I've had to file those movies in the Let Down category.
The one movie that really exceeded my expectations so far this year was Iron Man. I'm not really a huge fan of comic book movies (although I've seen my share of them.) But, Iron Man surprised me. I thought it was extremely well-casted. I was entertained the whole time, which is what I expect out of a summer blockbuster.
The movie I currently have high expectations for is Son of Rambow, but haven't yet seen it. I'll keep you posted.
Streisand...Redford..Together!
The runner up is Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. Not as action-filled as Iron Man, and the macGuffin is pretty silly, but it was great to see Harrison Ford and Karen Allen back.
The movie I am REALLY looking forward to is the Batman sequel, The Dark Knight. With Heath Ledger's tragic death, the hype around this is incredible, and if it comes close to the quality of the first one, I think this will be the top money maker of the summer
And I loved Juno. Quirky and not just another teen gets pregnant what do we do movie.
Sex and the City...though the sex was a bit over the top. Movie might have been better had some things been left to the imagination.
Juno...Quirky and differnt from other teens having sex movies.
But I want Get Smart to top it - should - I used to have a Get Smart lunch box with Agent 99 on the Thermos:)
Please, pretty please, can I win the tickets to the preview showing of Get Smart??!!!
Good job telling the backstory without compromising cool action set pieces.
