May Mini-Movie Reviews

Some hits and some misses this month.

See the full list here.

  • Monsters vs. Aliens (Theater - 3D). B.
    Funny enough, and short. The 3D made Reese Witherspoon’s giant monster look amazingly curvy!
  • Borat (DVD). B-.
    The first half-hour was hilarious. And I cannot express sufficient admiration at Sacha Baron Cohen’s willingness to go to any extreme for a laugh. But I wasn’t entirely comfortable with the situations in which he placed the film’s unsuspecting non-actors.
  • Star Trek (Theater). A.
    A fun, fun, movie.
  • Derailed (DVD). D-.
    You could probably guess the so-called “twist” in this movie without even knowing anything about it.
