Movie Reviews in 3 Sentences or Less

I like writing down my movie thoughts, but I've got a lot to do tonight because I'm heading on a mini-vaca to the snow for a few days leaving tomorrow, so here are my brief, unspoilery opinions for those looking to see a movie or two.

1. Sherlock Holmes: Excellent movie with extremely fun and interesting portrayals of Holmes and Watson. The plot

Thanks for this!

I'm planning on seeing Holmes and Up in the Air and its nice to hear that they're both solid movies. I was a little worried about both:

1) Sherlock Holmes looked like a blockbuster and I was kind of worried the plot would be lost on big explosions and big boobs (Rachel McAdams)

2) Up in the Air looks like a indie film, and indie films can either be really good......or absolutely terrible.

So in short, thank you very much, if this was on IMDB I would say this is very useful to me ;)

Ahaha, no problem.

Yeah, they marketed Holmes like a total blockbuster, but it wasn't all explosions or boobs. Rachel McAdams was actually fantastic, but I think Watson steals the spotlight. And you get to see a little into Holmes' mind/thought processes, which was pretty cool.

And Up in The Air was good but, like I said, sad.

Glad to be of some help. :D I personally hate spending money on movies that end up being shit.

You'll have to let me know what you think of them when/if you see them!

And as a side note, if you haven't bothered to see Inglorious Basterds yet, GO SEE IT IMMEDIATELY. Especially if you like offbeat humor, action movies, and intricate winding plots-or anything Tarantino.

We've had the pirated DVD sitting on our coffee table for a while, so I might look into that. I love Tarantino and from what I heard (because I heard my brother watching it from my room lol) it sounds VERY typically Tarantino, lol. I even recognized some music used in it from Kill Bill.
