Oh, John Cusack, how do you keep coming back into my life? We'll come back to him. I'd just like to say, this movie was better than I had expected. At 1st I didn't even want to watch it, then the more I saw the trailers the more interested I got. It was really funny, but predictable. It made me think a little about back to the future, but in this case, they were going back to the 80s, and the only thing awesome about the 80s was the saturday morning and after school cartoons.

**SPOILERS**

Is it me or does John Cusack appear in the most random movies? You have your action movie actors, your chick flick actors, your stonner flick actors, and so on. Cusack doesn't seem to be part of anything, it's as if his agent just jumps on every movie and hopefully he gets a part. I think his character should have been played by Seth Rogan or something. John Cusack? Random as hell. I also do not see him as a stonner, so that was really awkward.

Oh man, one part in this movie, that realllly bugged me was the scene where Nick sings a song by the Black Eyed Peas...in the 80s. That...was...retarded. You know how someone does something completely stupid and you just feel embarrassed and dumbfounded for that person? Well that's how I felt about this scene. I couldn't even watch, it was just dumb. It was dumb. It was sooooo dumb! I can't stress that enough.

I really liked Lou's character. Angry people are just so funny. I knew he was going to stay behind and change the world. I would probably do the same considering what I know now. Although, having to go through all that childhood and teenage crap... I don't know. But they all got what they wanted in the end, and their friendship was stronger than it was before, so that was cool.

So anyways, this was an awesome movie. Id recommend it to everyone, even you people who enjoy watching "Not Another Teen movie". It really makes you think about life and how one little thing can make a difference, or not even. Maybe your life was already planned out for you, so no matter what you do, your always going to end with the same results. So check it out, it'll make you laugh.

**SIDE NOTE**

Who doesn't like to laugh? If your someone who doesn't enjoy laughing, then there is something seriously wrong with you. Your either a serial killer, or dead. So you'd have to be a serial killer, because if you were dead, I don't think it would be possible or meaningful that your reading a movie review on someone's blog...go do what dead people do best. And.....if your a serial killer then, please go away. Thanks.

I just got back from watching this movie. It's definitely meant for the teeny boppers. I still found some of the parts funny, and parts you can't help but laugh at because it reminds you of how lame Jr. High was...and how glad you are that it's over. I've never read the books before, but my brother has them so I've seen them around the house. They look pretty cool. I find stick figure doodles very appealing. They have a certain charm to them. They did a good job keeping the book a part of the movie with the whole stick figure drawings and animations.

**SPOILERS**

I'm not sure who out there is into movies that are meant for kids and families, but I'll just add the **SPOILERS** just in case your a teeny bopper.

So, anyways, it's a cute little movie. The characters were actually pretty funny, specially Fregley. He was such a gross little guy, but funny at the same time. A small ginger kid chasing his friend with a booger on his finger, then writing a letter of apology with the booger on it...awesome.

There was a character that I wasn't too fond of. Obviously she wasn't meant to be liked due to how much of an idiot she was. I don't know if any of you remember Jr. High, but there was always that one girl, who had to be part of everything in school, and be better than everyone. Her mom was the head of PTA and she always got her parents involved if she didn't get what she wanted. That was her...and I want to punch her in the face.

There was a little side running gag in this movie that I thought was really cool, and it's definitely how stupid annoying children would handle it too. There was a slice of cheese on the black top at the school that randomly appeared there and nobody threw it away. By the looks of it, it's been there for years. So, whoever touched it, caught the "cheese touch" and they would pretty much be ostracized by the entire student body. The only way to fix it is to touch someone and pass it on. It was so dumb, but funny at the same time because it's totally something that's been done, or has been going on for years and years. Maybe not with a rotting slice of cheese, but something else.

Anyways, this was a good movie. It wasn't amazing, but Id definitely give it a chance. The story was cute, the characters were funny, and unlike a lot of teeny bopper films, they didn't try hard to be funny, it was just natural and amusing. I was able to relate to this movie because it's kind of what Jr. High was like for me, except I didn't try so hard for people to like me. People just didn't like me period. It's okay, it's not like I have to relive that hell hole time of my life again.

So yeah, it's good, it's funny, it's a family flick. So if your into hard core Vin Diesel films like the Fast and the Furious then this probably isn't hard core enough for you, you might need to go watch Xxx or something, for the rest of you normal people Id at least watch it when it starts showing on TV.

into the blue.

This was on TV the other day and I would just like to say that I would have rather taken my turtle on a walk than to have watched this movie. I think I would have more fun watching him walk a few steps and hide in his shell for a few minutes and start walking again. That was a god awful movie, and I damn the Peachtree Network for putting this on my cable channel for me to find.

Why was this movie awful, you ask? Oh, well I will tell you. One, it has Paul Walker. He's a good looking guy, but he just reminds me too much of the Fast and the Furious. Two, it was pretty much a mixture of Fools Gold and Open Water. I know, Fools Gold came out in 2008, but they we're both pretty shitty. As was Open Water.

**SPOILERS** (as if anyone would care)

Movies, that take place in the water...I don't know, if you have an amazing story and it takes place in the ocean fine. But please, I don't really feel like watching Paul Walker and Jessica Alba making out every 5 minutes. What the hell is all that about? That had absolutely nothing, NOTHING to do with the movie, there's just shots of them making out. I'd understand that you want a montage of people showing their affection for each other, but usually it has something to do with the story. This just felt more like a filler. A very unnecessary and boring filler.

Oh and that random girl that just starts hanging out with them as if she's part of the crew. What a tart! You know when there's a random stranger part of the usual click, they're always trouble. They always try to stir something up. Well you know what? I'm glad that shark took a chunk of her leg out, because she doesn't deserve to have a full one! That shark scene was probably the best scene out of the whole movie. It was exciting, and I wanted to see it again, but not with the whole movie, maybe I'll go youtube that little chunk and watch it over and over again.

John Stockwell...make good movies, or get out of the industry. If you have to stay, go be a PA or something, you'd be better at that.

Oh yeah, and if you liked this movie, or thought it was okay, then you deserve a giant obese lady sitting on you and farting continuously. That is all.

the crazies.

I tried not to have any expectations when walking into this movie, but based on the trailer, "The Crazies" looked like a thrasher horror movie, much like "Dawn of the Dead" or "Texas Chainsaw Massacre"... I couldn't have been more... wrong? I know people will argue this. I actually wanted to see gore, and death, and killings, but the movie just didn't deliver, which made me want to see gore more, just to satisfy an itch... And I'm not even a gore fan.

I was not impressed by the story. Any scenes that had any scare potential were quickly ruined by bad, over-exaggerated acting, and all that was left were one or two pathetic attempts at jump scares. There were a few scenes that had a lot of potential, but the camera turns away, or shows you just enough to give you an idea of what's happening. C'mon This isn't PG-13.

I do not recommend this movie. That being said, it's not so horrible that it's unwatchable, it's just boring, uninventive, and nothing new. "The Crazies" is every other typical modern horror film rolled into one, without any pay off, gore, or real terror. If you're a fan of this genre, chances are you've seen the other movies I mentioned, and have no need to see this one.

shutter island.

1st of all, I'd like to start out by saying Leonardo DiCaprio was awesome in this movie. This was the only movie of his that I wasn't annoyed at because it's always Leonardo DiCaprio playing Leonardo DiCaprio, with some kind of accent. It's pretty lame and distracts me from enjoying the movie.

But anyways, this movie was freaking weird. You just find yourself following along, then at some point you start doubting what you assumed this movie was about. This movie IS a bit predictable and I found myself figuring it all out somewhere between the middle and the end. I didn't find it boring at all, I was more anxious than anything.

I'm not going to give any spoilers. I want you guys to just go see it for yourselves. If I give it away, there's really no point in seeing it. I liked the ending a lot and I don't think it could have ended any other way. The story was great. The movie was creepy and awesome. Can't get any creepier than an insane asylum.

Only thing I'm going to leave you with is, after you see this movie (if your obviously the kind of person who goes to movies and comes out analyzing it or comparing it to your life) your going to question your own life and the people around you. If your not that kind of person then your the type that goes to the movies, comes out and goes, "Dude!! Vin Diesel's car was badass!" If that's you then leave, why are you even reading movie reviews?

Okay that was a little bit more than what I was going to leave you with...
