How to Train Your Dragon

How to Train Your Dragon might be the best movie that has come out this year so far. It has a really good story that keeps you interested. Its pretty funny, and it is also heartwarming. Its exciting and not completely predictable. The voice actors are excellent, and they fit the characters well. Gerard Butler voices the main character's dad, and it is probably his best role ever. Craig Ferguson voices another one of the Vikings, and he did a really awesome job. It was just a really solid movie that's great for everyone. Garr and I both agree that the title is kinda lame, but the movie is pretty awesome. We saw it in 3D, and we're really glad we did because the flying scenes are amazing. We give it a 9/10.

Clash of The Titans

So we went and saw Clash of The Titans opening weekend, and we really enjoyed it. It has gotten some pretty bad reviews from critics, but we thought it was pretty cool. If you have seen the old Clash of the Titans, this is absolutely amazing compared to that. But if your in love with the old one, you may not like this one. You shouldn't go into it expecting the greatest movie of all time. What you should expect is some awesome monster killing action, and that's what you get. The fight scenes were pretty spectacular, so if you like a movie with a lot of action that is pretty clean other than a lot of violence then this is the movie is for you. We happen to be those kind of people. We give it a 7.5/10.

Alice in Wonderland

We saw Alice in Wonderland in Imax 3D. It was pretty weird. Not that I didn't expect it to be a little bazaar but wow. It was just a little hard to follow, and there was a lot to take in. The story was ok, but I started to get a little bored. Johnny Depp was decent, but he switched between two different accents throughout the movie for no apparent reason and it got a little old. The best part of the movie was definitely the Red Queen played by Helena Bonham Carter. She was really funny and perfect for the role. Overall we thought the movie was decent and maybe worth seeing from redbox. We give it a 6/10.

Sherlock Holmes

We saw Sherlock Holmes a few months after it came out in th Dollar Theater. We had heard good things, but I'm glad we didn't full price. It was a pretty big disappointment. It seemed really long, and that is never a good thing for a movie. We just felt that it didn't live up to all of the hype. There where a lot of unresolved issues, and the plot seemed way too similar to the movie Young Sherlock Holmes which is also really horrible. We don't recommend it and give it a 4/10.

The Blind Side

We ended up seeing The Blind Side in the dollar theater after everyone else had already seen it and Sandra Bullock had won Best Actress for her role. So we already knew that it was a really solid movie that everyone loved. Fortunately, We really enjoyed it too. It's just a really awesome story, and it's really hard not to get invested in it and love it. I would suggest this movie to anybody. We give it a 9.5/10.
