Emma Stone does an amazing job of making this film watchable. She will be a huge star for her efforts no doubt. On its own the film is insulting and un-funny. Nothing is fleshed out or deserving of the topics it covers. Amanda Bynes character's story has no conclusion and the main story has no point. Ultimately this film never gets anywhere or accomplishes anything, including making me laugh.

For what it is it is great. It's the highest of quality B-movie and stays true to the genre. Whether killer tomatoes, evil bags, or schools of ancient piranha, the reality is so skewed from the start, you have no choice but to enjoy it's ridiculousness throughout. It's fun with a group but maybe less so at home on DVD later.

I enjoyed the performances, especially by Jason Bateman and the kid in the film, but this movie pretty much sucked otherwise. The funniest part of the entire film to me was Jeff Goldblum sitting back in one scene. Just him, leaning back in his chair, was the highlight of this film.

This film has great visuals from director Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead) and superb comic timing from the entire cast. However, the characters lack any real depth. The movie is fun and the video game style fight sequences were awesome, but I never really bought the love stories or character development throughout.

The message of the film is good (enforcing financial system abuses) and the film has some really funny jokes/performances. The way the scenes unfold feels as if we're being punk'd or played with by the filmmakers like a bad Andy Kaufman skit. The reality of this film has trouble finding it's footing in my opinion. The first 15 minutes are hilarious though.

I thought this was a really funny movie and found myself uncontrollably laughing embarrassingly loud throughout. My favorite part is Steve Carell's character's hobby which is adorable, unusual, and morbid. Great cast of funny people plus Jay Roach directing is always a delight for me.

A near perfect movie and my favorite Christopher Nolan film since Memento. It's a psychological thriller, heist movie, and sci-fi flick all in one! I absolutely loved this movie, minus about 15 minutes of repetitive gunfire at nameless bad guys in the snow.

It could be worse, he could have done 'Lady in the Water 2'. This movie was stunning, beautiful, but so very very dull. Like watching paint dry, very pretty paint. I think Shyamalan is an amazing director but he's a shitty writer. Focus on the visuals and leave the words to the wordsmiths my friend.

These films feel more like a fleshed-out self indulgent yearbook signing than a piece of art. Everyone gets to see their fictional friends in the flesh and gossip about that scene in the tent til the next movie comes out. It was nice to see Edward smile this time though.

I'm a huge Pixar fan, and I adore the original Toy Story. As with any sequel each subsequent film tries to outdo the others and this is no exception. There must've been over 100 new characters in this film, but amid the never-ending chaos is a highly relatable feeling of "why am I here?" throughout the film. The toys are trying to find purpose, or life after life. The journey takes us through ideas of limbo, heaven, hell, retirement homes, and even reincarnation; or just how to make a fresh start during this life. In one scene the characters actually know they are going to die and it's maybe a little too real even for me, but that's Pixar. Apparently they're taking it upon themselves to talk about death in their films, since most children's movies treat kids like they're dumb fragile little glass dolls. I suppose someone has to be the realistic voice in the room... It's funny, for 15 years Pixar has been teaching life lessons with inanimate objects more effectively than most films do with real people.
