I saw Up In The Air today. I thought it was really really good~

I watched 'The Jacket' last night and thought it was amazing until the pretty ending.

Avatar. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either.

Okay, I'm not saying I thought the movie sucked, because I enjoyed it and felt that it was a good movie, but what am I missing? I've seen so many reviews that gush all over this movie, and I just don't see it as anything that special. What about it makes it this "OMG! Best movie! 10/10!" movie?

the story and special effects were spectacular.

The Day The Earth Stood Still - 6/10

Concept was cool, but could have been a lot better.

the story and special effects were spectacular.

I'll give you the effects, but the story was pretty predictable.

watched Burn after Reading last night and was bored out of my mind. The characters were, meh, no one really was that funny, and then the ending was weird.

Top 3 That Exceded Expectations
1. Up in the Air (trailer didn't look that promising to me; ended up being my favorite movie of the year)
2. Adventureland (can't stand Kirsten Stewart but she was really good in this)
3. The Twilight Saga: New Moon (let the flames begin; was expecting complete trash but the movie was not nearly the worst thing I saw this year)

Top 3 That Failed Expectations
1. 9 (trailers looked like this movie would be completely badass but all it really accomplished was looking great)
2. Bruno (Borat is a hard movie to follow up to and Bruno was still pretty funny just not nearly as side-splitting as what Borat was)
3. Gamer (the only redeeming quality was Michael C. Hall; was expecting more on the lines of Crank but didn't quite reach that level)
