Prediction: Three Musketeers

Would be shocked if it got good reviews. Would be shocked if I didn't enjoy it...although Lerman is not leading man material, Orlando Bloom should, if featured sufficiently, make up for that.

Preist

At its best, a mix of Blade, Dredd (both the Stallone and Urban incarnations), and V for Vendetta. At its lamest, it withholds excellence in favor of banality to be more of a Legionish, Max Payne type. All you really need in a movie are Bettany being Bettany while Urban pops a death jig in a cowboy hat on screen as much as possible!.

Bridesmaids

At times unrealistic but eventually satisfying, like a Dragonfruit.

Super

Starts weak, ends heavy. Great music. Man from Gilmore Girls has mohawk.

Green Street Hooligans

Dude looks like Heath Ledger. They gave Elijah some crap dialogue.

Sucker Punch

Brain OFF! Despite that was still not convinced of Vanessa Hudgens hotness. Overall, WOO GiRL POWER...right Snyder? Absolutely pointless story, mind-blowing inconsequential fight scenes.

8 out of 10.
