Project X

Shit was aaaaight!

Wasn't no house party by any means.  Big budget and all but it didn't make cult classic status for me.

My Rating 3/5 Generously generic

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES

BEST BATMAN MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!!...YEAH I SAID IT

This shit go hard AF!  I was thoroughly  impressed at the end of this movie.  Action wise it was on point.  They didn't try to compensate substance for flash with the action either cus the story was dope AF.  And as far as villains go Bain was a mothafucker!

I was happy when this wasn't that predictable. The story got deep.  Then it got a little more deeper to the point where I was thinking "Damn! Aint no way Batman getting out of this shit."  But, of course, this is a Batman movie.  Batman is the good guy who is obligated to be the savior so I know those people in Hollywood wouldn't fuck up a perfectly good friday night with a depressing story of how Gotham got smashed on.  They couldn't do that, right?

Bruce Wayne is chilling like an old billionaire whose old hobby was whiquite pping criminals asses and there are no more asses to whip.  In comes Bain who is bigger than him, just as fast, stronger, and DGAF about nothing but carnage and shit of the like.  And this dude hates Batman/Bruce Wayne, and he knows who the two are the same.   Bain gets to doing shit where the inner hero of Batman has to fuck him up, or at least try lmao.

Bruce Wayne is like an ex-football player in this one.  Still young in age, in normal people years, but his body is beat the hell up.  Walks with a cane and shit.  But he still got paper tho, and he has Morgan Freeman's expertise scientists at his disposal so he fixes this beat up dude nicely with gadgets and some more fly shit.  

Batman hits the treadmill and does some push ups and he goes at Bain.  Hard!  Trouble is this dude Bain is a beast with his and goes harder than anybody Batman ever got down with.  Plus he was waiting for Batman.  Batman had bitch ass people on his team, so indeed they set him up.  Batman gets down with Bain and eats the worst ass whipping I can recall a dude getting his on movie since Rocky got fucked up the first time he fought Mr. T in Rocky III. Well damn, is what the theater says in unison (I checked this out in other showings and found this to be true, check it out)  

Bain coulda murdered Batman, with ease.  So he's more than a formidable foe.  Bain is beast and he now has to be acknowledged as such.

Im not spoiling the rest of the movie, just giving some insight.

My rating 5/5
Check it out and see for yourself though.

TED

THIS IS FUNNY AF!!!

I think this is gonna be the funniest movie of the summer of 2012.   Think Family Guy having the freedom to do R rated shit with real actors and a magical fucking teddy bear who gets bitches, smokes weed, and cracks jokes.

You cant lose with this one.

My rating: 5 of 5

THOR

I got around to this one and was a bit disappointed.  Maybe it was all the good stuff I heard about it had me thinking this movie was going to be much better.  

The fights were mediocre.  The romance between Thor and "mortal" was throwing me off.  The plot was aight, been there before seen it done better.  Thor had his eyebrows died looking like a wierdo.   Shit just wasn't gellin'

My Rating:
3/5  

I will say I wanted way more out of this and it was not delivered

GOOD DEEDS

Another Tyler Perry one y'all


This one ain't even have a trailer put out on the internet yet nugga, this is some exclusive shit.


Okay, again,  I like to be neutral with this brotha.  He seems to be stepping his game up quite nicely.  This movie was good.


Its about a brotha, Wesley Deeds played by Perry, who is the successor of a software company founded by his father.  He has a a fine ass fiance, played by fine ass Gabrielle Union,  an asshole/alcoholic/fuck up of a brother played by Brian White, and a mother played by Claire Huxtable(Phylicia Rashad).  Thandie Neewton is in this one too playing the self-defeating black woman real tough.


So as I laid out before Wesley Deeds is the CEO of a software company.  He inherited that position from his dad after he died and his brother Walter Deeds, played by Brian White, is jealous of him for getting offered that position over him because Wesley didn't want it as bad as him.  But his brother is a fuck up and an asshole to the umpteenth degree.   He is reckless as fuck at the mouth and doesn't really have restraint enough to head the business.  Walter gets DUI's, fucks random bitches in the workplace, and checks women in public not exactly the nigga to run a company of this caliber, maybe more suitable for Walter's Chicken Shack or some shit similar.


Thandie Newton plays the angry disgruntled self defeating black woman named Lindsey.  She has a story that will make you lightweight understand her situation.  But here attitude will have you teetering on having sympathy for her or being on a "that's what her angry ass deserves" mentality about her doing's. She has an adorable snag-a-tooth daughter that balances out your feelings toward her. Thandie plays the fuck outta her angry black woman character.  She is real disrespectful to the brothers, plays the soft victim role when she put on blast for fucking but will quickly return to asshole again in a second. 


So this Lindsey crosses paths with Wesley Deeds in a dispute over a parking space where she parks in Wesley's spot and he catches her and she basically tells him to f#ck off.  Walter, played by Brian White, wasn't having that disrespect towards his brother and didn't approve of Wesley's handling of the situation.  So Walter expresses that with an up'd level of disrespect and the tone is set with these characters.


So further down, Tyler's character finds out about Thadie's character situation, which is sad, and his inner Captain comes out and saves her and her adorable daughter.  His dealings with this angry Lindsey leads him to thinking about what his life has become and what life has to offer in general.  He begins to question his engagement etc.


Bottomline, I was impressed by this movie.  Tyler Perry has stepped it up in this one and I would like to see more from him like this.   With his cape out on this one, he is catering to black women in this one as he always does, but that is his main audience and he is getting paper from it so I can't knock him.  I don't think it would have went down quite like it did in the movie most woulda wrote Thandie's character off due to her attitude early on but it made for an entertaining evening so I ain't mad.


My Rating:
4.5/5
Leave the dress and Madea alone, keep this good work up and you'll have new fans.

UPDATE:
THIS IS THE BEST TYLER HAS PUT FORTH SINCE THE FAMILY THAT PREYS AND THE FIRST WHY DID I GET MARRIED!  

WE THE PEEBLES

This is a film under he Tyler Perry umbrella with a release date TBA(Google it). That's becoming my new shit, Google it!.

I got my opinions on this dude Tyler Perry, I'll focus on the positive side of them right now and say this dude is hustling up an empire that's to be respected.  He is like the Hollywood Jesus coming to save out of work black actors and actresses destitute of good acting jobs. I love that he is employing folks Hollywood doesn't know how to fuck with or simply just don't.

This movie has Craig Robinson, fine ass Kerry Washington, and David Allen Grier to name the marquee names. Tyler didn't direct it himself he's putting someone else on. A female director, Tina Gordon Chism, did this movie.  It's a comedy minus men in dresses acting silly and coonish. None of that, this goes into the regular family comedy category.

I was pleased by this movie. There was no wild over the top ish going on. The cast did their jobs, the director did her job well, and the story was cool.  And that all came together as what would be a cool night out with the fam or a date.

Craig Robinson's character is a man who makes songs for children to help them get potty trained correctly.  On some guitar don't pee on yourself corny type ish which translated to some funny ish seeing this big ass dude singing to kids on some Yo Gabba Gabba ish..  His character is looking to get married to Kerry Washington's character who is a bit secretive about here family and is hesitant to introduce them to her man.


She sneaks off to a family retreat and Craig's character crashes the party only to find out his future fiance's family doesn't even know about him.  David Allan Grier is playing the father, damn a nigga getting old.  David's is playing the uptight asshole future father in law who is weary of this new nigga, Craig's character.


Mix some drugs, alcohol, and lesbian sex in the mix and you got a nice concoction that ends up being entertainable


My Rating
4/5

It wasn't corny and that is a good thing.

Bridesmaids

I kept hearing good reviews about this movie, they were all true. I steer clear of chick flicks, which was written all over this movie.  Upon review I would say the best way to describe this movie would be a Judd Apatow movie with an all female cast.


The story is about a woman who has a childhood friend that is going to get married and has another/new friend who is trying to play the role best friend.  The two, one a bridesmaid and the other a maid of honor, go at throughout the movie like jealous women do.


Been a minute since I seen it though but I got good memories.


My rating:
5/5


It was good
