A Bee Movie reminded that Dreamworks lacks everything that Pixar has when it comes to making movies about animals or anything in general. If they thought by slapping some major celebrities together (like Shrek) would bring down the house every time, they seem to have been wrong many times over. I know this will disappoint … More Bee Movie (2007)
Shrek the Third is where the franchise took a turn for the worse and lost me as a fan. Everything that worked in the first two movies was missing here. Sure the jokes, pop culture references were there, just not on the same level as before. We are two stories in, so no one can … More Shrek the Third (2007)
I may be about 11 years late to the party, but what a kick ass party I missed. Anthony Hopkins, a wise law-abiding citizen, goes head to head in the court room with a blood thirsty Ryan Gosling, who cares more about winning and losing than actually practicing law. I was clueless to pretty much … More Fracture (2007)
The Bring It On franchise can only come up with so many “new” cheer leading story lines, before they eventually repeat themselves and push people away from their movies. Cheer leading is really a cut throat sport, where there is never a shortage of drama. Whether it’s love between team mates from different teams or … More Bring It On: In It to Win It (2007)
Enchanted takes bits and pieces of a classic tale and throws it into 20th century reality. There are a few actresses who could play a princess and Amy Adams is certainly one of them. Patrick Dempsey always plays a charming guy, so this on-screen couple is one audiences can get behind and totally get infatuated … More Enchanted (2007)
7/10 We Own the Night could be based on a true story or could be just an act of fiction. It is hard to tell given the fact that New York City is one of the most corrupt places on earth. It is pretty fun to watch two brothers, who act like complete strangers, go … More We Own the Night (2007)
5/10 Casey Affleck just won an Oscar and the world flipped. As I watched his reckless detective skills unravel in Gone Baby Gone, I totally lost it when he makes a life changing decision that affected a whole lot of people. It’s tough to say whether or not he did the right thing or that … More Gone Baby Gone (2007)
4/10 There are only so many ways to tell the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, this was not one of them. I applaud the efforts of writers to plug the story into the rigid college social class structures, but the supporting cast doesn’t do enough to sell the story. As I try … More Sydney White (2007)
7/10 Sky High is the typical Disney movie, following the pattern of so many before it. The best part of this film though is the actors and their cheesy super hero powers. You’ll chuckle and roll your eyes but when it is all said and done you won’t feel like you wasted your time. This … More Sky High (2007)
5/10 Meet the Robinson’s was never on my radar and then my girlfriend made me watch it. I give the animators credit for coming up with a funny story about time travelling, but this film didn’t really stick out to me as being a great animated movie. Kids enjoy anything that’s cute and goofy, while … More Meet the Robinsons (2007)
