Courageous

He said:  Good movie about men being good fathers.  Acting is a little substandard, but overall a good family movie.  Grade: B+

She said:  I really enjoyed this movie.  Some humor, some tragedy, a lot of life lessons.  Great movie for the family.  No bad language...a great story.  May need some tissue!

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

He said:  I wasn't a huge fan of the first movie, not really a fan of this movie, either.  Just not my kind of movie.  I'm not a huge Robert Downey fan so maybe that makes me a little biased, but I just did not enjoy this movie.  Grade: C-

She said:  I didn't like the first one, and I didn't like the second one!  I think it's the directing I don't like, hard to follow fight scenes, accents so thick I couldn't understand some things they were saying.  I love the Sherlock Holmes character, just not a fan of these movies.

Girl With A Dragon Tattoo

He said:  If you've read the book or seen the Swedish movie, you know what to expect.  An intriguing murder mystery with graphic/brutal sex scenes including a very disturbing rape scene.  Not for the faint of heart.  I could not recommend this movie to any of my friends, it's just too graphic.  Grade:  A for story and suspense, F for graphic nature.  Overall: C-

She said:  Very graphic sex and rape scenes!!  Language rough.!  That being said, I love criminal thrillers and this was a story of a 40 year old murder.  I like the idea of trying to figure out who dunnit.  NOT a movie for kids/young teenagers in my opinion.

In Time

He said:  Very interesting concept for a movie, very original.  The more I watch Justin Timberlake on screen, the more I like him.  Overall good dollar date movie.  Grade:  B

She said:  These kind of movies usually drive me crazy.  But, it was actually pretty good.  I've said before that a day will come that we will all have chips in us to pay for stuff and not swipe cards anymore....this movie is a little scary in that regard!  Overall pretty good movie

Abduction

He said:  I wasn't expecting very  much from this movie, but it kinda surprised me.  A lot of action and excitement.  Taylor Lautner is not the best actor in the world, but he did an OK job.  Good dollar movie. Grade:  B-

She said: I thought this movie was pretty good.  Good action. Wasn't sure if Taylor Lautner could pull it off, but he did pretty good.  Good for a Redbox rental.

New Year's Eve

He said:  Think Valentine's Day-Part 2.  Huge ensemble cast with several stories woven together.  Not a bad date movie.  Grade: C

She said: Lots of famous faces in this movie.  Lots of stories going on at once, and even a little guessing game sprinkled throughout the movie.  You'll see when you watch it.  I liked this movie.  It was about second chances, taking risks, and helping people live their dreams.  There was some bad language, but overall this was a good, fun and sweet movie.  Would recommend this one.

Tower Heist

He said:  Not a big Ben Stiller fan.  And, this movie didn't change that!  Pretty good cast, but this movie never really felt right.  Wait for Redbox.  Grade:C-

She said:  As I've said before, there are some movies where the trailer is the funniest part.  Well, this is one of them.  A lot of crude language, wouldn't want to watch this with my teenagers.  The acting wasn't great..this was just pretty much a mediocre movie.  Wouldn't hurt to skip this one, or not pay more than a Redbox amount!

We Bought A Zoo

He said:  This was a good movie, not great.  The language was a little worse than I expected.  I thought Matt Damon did a good job portraying a man dealing with the loss of his wife.  This movie is based on a true story which is pretty cool.  Grade:  B

She said:  Good movie based on a true story.  A little slow at times, but overall feel good movie.  I think the language was a little surprising and the little girl calls a man a derogatory name.  But, other than that...it was cute.

Misson Impossible-Ghost Protocol

He said:  I'm not a huge Tom Cruise fan, but I really enjoyed this movie.  A lot of action and thrilling stunts.  Also, very cool BMW's.  This movie was a little easier to follow than some of the other Mission Impossible films and this was my favorite of all of them.  Grade:  B+

She said:  I'm not really a Tom Cruise fan, but I have to say I enjoyed this movie.  Action packed, some humor, great scenery.  Language not horrible either.  Good date day movie....oh yeah...forgot to mention all the awesome cars...guys should love that :)

Paranormal Activity 3

He said:  I don't like these kinds of movies.

She said:  OMG...I jumped and screamed out loud in the theater!  Lots of suspenseful moments!  The ending left a lot to be desired, but overall, it was a good scary movie!  Be prepared to jump!

The Twilight Saga-Breaking Dawn Part 1

He said:  Didn't see this one.

She said:  This was the best one of the bunch!!  Of course, I enjoyed the last book too, so naturally I would like this one the best.  I hate that they are splitting it into 2 parts, because I didn't want it to end. I have to say, I watched this with my teenage daughter and was pretty uncomfortable during the honey moon scene.  Not that they showed a lot of skin, but the implication and "movements" were there!  Other than that, it was good :)
