BATTLESHIP (May 18, 2012)

Starring:  Alexander Skarsgard, Brooklyn Decker, Liam Neeson, and Rihanna

Director:  Peter Berg

Rated: PG-13  -  Runtime:  131 min

Genre:  Action | Sci-Fi | Thriller

If it’s non stop action laced with humor this is the movie for you!!  This one was well worth the midnight showing, the acting was great, it has a good story line, and we have finally seen an alien that has some resemblance to a human.  I was wondering how long this would take before it happened.  Dammit anyway, we can’t possibly be the only form of living being that looks somewhat like another.  

Loved the part Rihanna played, a cute female sailor, let’s see the last time we saw anything like this was in A Few Good Men.  It has become almost a contradiction in terms.

As for the awesome video graphics and animation, wow, that was great!  I’m definitely gonna go see this one again.

Side note:  If you live in an area where you can see this on the big screen (IMAX format) don't miss going to see it there!! And for any of my readers living in the Mesa, AZ area you can see it at the Dickinson Gateway 12 IMAX. 

My Rating: 4 1/2 Mugs of Guinness - aka; 4 1/2 Stars for those being too young to enjoy the Irish Ale.

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU’RE EXPECTING (May 18, 2012)

Starring:  Cameron Diaz, Matthew Morrison, J. Todd Smith, Jennifer Lopez, and Dennis Quaid

Director:  Kirk Jones

Rated: PG-13  -  Runtime:  110 min

Genre:  Comedy | Drama | Romance

I really expected more with all the stars in this movie!  The storyline was not that good, but they used all the good parts in the trailers which drove the hype up and that’s why it is even making money at the box office.  It seems that the only one in the movie who managed to maintain any kind of respectability and dignity was J-Lo.  

If you totally disagree with me please let me know, perhaps I will go see it again and revise what I have written. 

My Rating: 2 Mugs of Guinness - aka; 2 Stars for those being too young to enjoy the Irish Ale.

THE DICTATOR (May 18, 2012)

Starring:  Sacha Baron Cohen, Anna Faris, John C. Riley, and Ben Kingsley

Director:  Larry Charles

Rated: R  -  Runtime:  83 min

Genre:  Comedy

Well folks, I have just a real short write up on my thoughts of this movie.  In short, it wasn’t as bad as Bruno but damn close.  The funny parts, or attempts at being funny were far and few between.  Basically boring, really made no sense and the part that Anna Faris plays is a far cry from her capabilities.  Bottom line, don’t waste your time or money, but if you’re bound and determined to go out and see it you better make it a priority as I can’t see this movie being around much longer than a week.

My Rating: 1/2 Mugs of Guinness - aka; 1/2 Stars for those being too young to enjoy the Irish Ale.
