Winter movie rentals
I thought I would pass along some movie reviews to anyone who is interested. I see that I am the only one who posts things on here, and it has been a month now since the last posting. Anyway, the other day I was at the video store (or do we say DVD store?) and I noticed some movies that are out that I have seen. Here are my reviews:
Devil Wears Prada **
Although, this movie screams girl movie, it actually was very entertaining and it kept my interest the whole time. Meryl Streep is very good.
Super Ex Girlfriend *1/2
Thought this would be a funny movie, however, it was funny at times, but kept you wondering when the funny parts were coming. David Arquette is not a good actor.
Invincible ****
This was a great inspiring movie. I knew that I would like this movie before I saw it, and it did not disappoint.
Pirates of the Carribean 2 *
When the first one is that good, the second has big shoes to fill. This movie had very little feet.
Happy Feet ***
Although a stupid title, making me think it was for very young kids, it actually comes off with a great story to both kids and adults about the environment.
Akeelah and the Bee ***
Great surprise, a feel good movie.
The Rocket ***1/2
Although some of you are thinking, hockey movie, I would classify it as a great story within a hockey themed movie. If you don't mind reading sublines, you will enjoy it.
Talledaga Nights **1/2
Will Ferrell will always make me watch any movie he is in. This movie had large hype around it from day one, and in a way lived up to it. You will love to say "shake and bake" all the time after watching it.
The Sentinel *1/2
Michael Douglas and Kieffer Sutherland is in this movie about an secret service agent and a plot to kill the president. It had an ok story, but Micheal Douglas being tough and outsmarting people was a little too much for me.

First of all I was going to post something last week but because I forgot our user name I was unable to. Email me the user name and I will post with some movies of my own.

Thanks for the reviews. Has anyone seen Confessions of a Dangerous Mind? Jenn, I can't remember if you did or not. It was really interesting. A lot of swearing but--using the standard movie swearing measuring stick here--not as much as Goodfellas. It has a lot of big names but I haven't heard of anyone seeing it. Let me know if you do. I'd give it 3 stars at least.
