Since my time and inspiration don't allow me to write detailed reviews for all of the movies that I see, I have come up with this idea of monthly digests. They will contain the films ratings as well as a short description.
Here comes the first one:
Bridesmaids
Raunchy humor, which sometimes is even hilarious, but the story has to many cheesy as well as hysterical aspects and transitions.
Bridesmaids
Acting: 3.5/5
Story: 2.5/5
Perception: 3/5
Story: 2.5/5
Perception: 3/5
Raunchy humor, which sometimes is even hilarious, but the story has to many cheesy as well as hysterical aspects and transitions.
A good mystery/spy movie with solid acting. The down side is that the tension build-up is quite slow and based on dialog pauses, so it might be difficult at the beginning to remain fully concentrated; but the patience is worth it as the pieces start coming together.
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
Acting: 3/5
Story: 2/5
Perception: 3.5/5
Cute adventure, but nothing out of the ordinary. Everything was plain, linear borderline cliched.
Puncture
Acting: 3/5
Story: 3.5/5
Perception: 2.5/5
The story that created the trial for introducing Safety Needles in the Hospitals of the US, dedicated to and presented from the point of view of the addicted lawyer that supported the cause from the beginning. The idea is not bad but the realisation is a bit sloppy and superficial.
The Iron Lady
Acting: 5/5
Story: 3/5
Perception: 3/5
A Margret Thatcher sublimely interpreted by Meryl Streep; but a rather weird way to present the past/present transitions and also not enough history references for my taste.
Crazy, Stupid, Love
Acting: 4.5/5
Story: 4/5
Perception: 4/5
Rating: 4/5
A fun, surprising, well-balanced and almost believable life comedy.
Captain America: The First Avenger

Captain America: The First Avenger
Acting: 4/5
Story: 3.5/5
Perception: 3.5/5
I expected it to be more dynamic, the character build-up taking longer than usual for the genre. Nonetheless the action sequences are worth it, as well as the performances of Hugo Weaving and Tommy Lee Jones.
Cars 2
Wits: 3/5
Story: 3/5
Perception: 3.5/5
A spy-themed animation that hasn't too much to do with the races and that also disappointed me on the humor level.
