reviews-day tuesday.

The Change-Up (4/5)
Starring: Jason Bateman & Ryan Reynolds.
I haven't been to the theatre in a while and I have to say I'm getting larger or the seats are getting smaller! Sheesh! However, I can't let that effect my judgement on this movie. I'm a sucker for any movie that wants to be like 'Freaky Friday'. Take that classic film and then completely crude it up with two fantastic comedians and you have this movie! Well done boys!

Morning Glory (5/5)
Starring: Harrison Ford, Rachel McAdams, & Diane Keaton.
I didn't know too much about this movie, so I wasn't expecting much. Boy am I glad that I caught this flick. Its a story about a struggling producer trying to fix a shady morning talk show. I don't even know how to talk it up enough to get you to go see it, but watch it! You won't regret it.

Just Go With It (3/5)
Starring: Adam Sandler & Jennifer Aniston.
Sandler plays a plastic surgeon who is basically a womanizer. He asks his assistant (Aniston) to act like his soon to be divorced wife in order to cover up a lie he told his new girlfriend. It was a cute romantic comedy and there were a lot of aspects that I liked, but I think I'm over Adam Sandler...for now. I'm sure he will hook me back in eventually. Sandler and Aniston had great chemistry on set, making Sandler's mediocre acting work.

Hall Pass (4/5)
Starring: Owen Wilson & Jason Sudeikis.
Owen Wilson & Jason Sudeikis' characters are given the opportunity to have a week off of marriage, aka a Hall Pass. During the week, crazy shenanigans start to happen, especially by the last night of their week off. It definitely had me laughing multiple times and even had a couple of unexpected "Oh my" moments.

Paper Man (?/5)
Starring: Jeff Daniels, Lisa Kudrow, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds, & Keiran Culkin.
Take the movie Drop Dead Fred and make it awkward...this could be that movie. I don't know how I feel about this movie. I will definitely watch it again. I think I really liked it, but there were a few parts I was put off on. Great cast and great acting. Please watch this and let me know what you think.

Megamind (4/5)
Starring: Will Ferrell & Tina Fey.
Megamind is an evil genius who eventually defeats the hero of Metro City. However, after some time he realizes life can be pretty boring without a hero to fight. This movie was pretty cute. I love superhero flicks and I liked how much it parodied Superman.
