In theatres:
City of Ember- 3.5 stars. City of Ember is a kid's movie. But even with that it is a deap movie with many concepts that would fly over the typical childs head. Acting was pretty impressive and the stage (I cant remeber what they're called for theatre) was so brilliant and impressive you can hardly beleive it isn't real. Rated PG
On DVD
THE HIGHLIGHT MOVIE IS:
Rock 'n' Roll High School- 5 stars. This movie is just hysterical. Slightly older though but the music will last forever. The comedy in it so clever that you can't help but laugh so hard your sides hurt. Keep your eyes out for the mice listening to Rock 'n' Roll. Rated PG-13
Much Ado About Nothing- 4 stars. A typical Shakespeare comedy. Some what hard to understand at times but it is totally worth it. It is clever and witty. Acting is great. Rated PG-13
Finding Neverland- 4.5 stars. Johnny Depp's performance in this is great. He has you believeing his everyword as he atttemtps to write Peter Pan. This movie is human and fun but still depressing. Very great. Everyone should see it. Rated PG
Blow- 5 stars. Holy crap. This movie is so dark, so depressing, so cruel you love it. Everything about it is fun to watch yet hurts inside. You will love it as long as you can stomach all the drugs. Another brillaint performance by Johnny Depp and the end is so sad. You will be so close to crying it isn't funny. Rated R

Try these movies.
Theartres:
Hamlet 2- 3 stars. This is a very crude and insulting movie. It is decent for what is it but isn't that gfreat for most people. Though it does have its moments. Rated R
DVD:
THE HIT MOVIE IS:
Reighn on Me- 5 stars. It is just brilliant. This movie follows the story a man who has very recently lost his entire family in 9/11. He is still in denail and has to resort to his music to drown out the misery. (slightly ironic I do the same with my mother's death.) A most see hit. Rated R
Across the Universe- 4 stars. A surpirse hit. I normally can't stand musicals but this was good. Not the best story but an excellent set of beatles songs. The acting is pretty good. I'd advise anyone to go and buy it on DVD. Rated PG-13
The Fisher King- 5 stars. This is a perfect example of a modern day fairy tale. It is so brillaint in most ways. It is all about a man who , inderectly, caused the a man to go on a murdering spree. Now he is working at video store when he meets the one man who survided the expereince who is mentally disturbed. Taking it upon himself he trys to rehabilate the man. Excellent movie, should be mandtatorry to see. Rated R

This is what you might like.
In theatres:
Tropic Thunder- 4.5 stars. Tropic Thunder may look like the average comedy out there but in fact it surpasses what anyone could have predicted it to be. Ben Stiller has made one of his greatest hits in this movie. Robert Downey Jr., Jack Black, Ben Stiller, Jay Baruchel and Brandon T. Jackson make this movie a brilliantly hysterical movie. It IS NOT advised for younger audiences but I still think that all people 13 and up should see it.
Death Race- 3.5 stars. Death Race is a fairly good movie out there. It stays simple in plot but still has the feel of a good action movie. The orginal (Death Race 2000) was a complete flop but this new one brings in all the things that the orginal missed out on. And as a fun fact to leave you with the island is shaped like a machine gun. It IS NOT advised for younger audiences but it is almost certainly made for a teenage audience.
The Dark Knight- 5 stars. Batman Begins was a good movie that created a reasonable world for Batman to exist upon. In The Dark Knight it surpasses anything out there at the moment. It darkens and adds more realism to this already dark world. Health Ledgers performance as the Joker was riveting and keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time. Never since Darth Vader has there been a villain that you see as such a great villain that you want him to win just to see what would happen. It is brillaintly demented and makes you wish more and more that Health Ledger had lived. May his soul rest in peace.
Hellboy 2: The Golden Army- 4 stars. Just like Batman Begins, the orginal Hellboy movie was fairly good but Hellboy 2 makes the experience even better. It dives farther into the mudane fantasy realm that Hellboy got made into a movie for. The director, Guillermo del Toro, leads this movie into a world that everyone will love. From the begining animation sequence to the final fight scene this movie is something that all ages will enjoy.
On DVD
THE HIGHLIGHT MOVIE IS:
Rocket Science- 5 stars. This movie is so brillaint on every level. The entire movie circles around a troubled teenager that decides to join the debate team since the girl he loves asks him to even though he suffers from a speech problem. Wickedly clever and hilarious this movie (though not an action movie) will make you keep wanting more. It is one of the few movies I have ever seen that truly captures the teenage soul and spirit. And as the movie says," Life shouldn't be Rocket Science."
A Guide To Remebering Your Saints- 4.5 stars. This movie is a movie that trully captures the spirit of the ghetto. It is dark, cruel, brilliant, and most likely completly innapropiate for anyone under the age of 17.
