Were you expecting anything different from a movie that featured Megan Fox in it and those ugly ass giants called Ninja Turtles?
The Third Man - Despite being about maybe 15 minutes too long, this movie was very good. I loved the mystery going on either though it was predictable. THe music and characters were good, but it was the cinematography and that amazing chase scene in the sewer that really drove this movie for me. That was nothing short of spectacular. I give it a 7/10 stars.
Sleepaway Camp - This movie was just flat out dumb. Now maybe it was because Watchmojo talked about the twist in several of their videos so the impact was lost, but I was more bored than anything else. It seemed like it was just trying to be Friday the 13th, but only half as good as that. Not only that, but the lack of any actual climax also took me out of it. I give ita 5/10 stars.
Big Eyes - Tim Burton has been one of those directors that has stuck around for longer than he should. He had a great run in the late 80s and 90s, but once we hit the 2000s, his movies were more misses than hits. The biggest issue is that his movies are all the same. Well Big Eyes has come out and thankfully it is something far different from what Burton has given us in recent years, but it is still far from spectacular. The movie does a really good job in its pacing, and its story is pretty good, but it still leaves a lot to be desired. The biggest issue with the movie is in Christolph Waltz. He is a fantastic actor, but here he just feels out of place. It seems like he wanted to play the character eccentric like his characters of the past, but because he had to play it like a real person, he was denied to be himself. As such, his talents are not only wasted, but they bring the movie done quite a bit. Amy Adams does do a great job as Margaret though and she does show the passion for the person she is portraying. The ending does seem a little abrupt though, but whatever. It is far from being anything horrible from Burton, but it isn't a movie that can restore my faith in the once grandiose director. Overall, I give it a 6/10 stars. If you are a Burton fan, this movie is a good one time watch. If you want to see a movie based on a real person that I don't think has ever been touched upon before, it is also a good movie to check out. If you don't care about either of those, don't even waste your time with it.
Out of the Past - While this is not my favorite Film Noir I have watched this year, it wasn't bad. It was quite good and I felt like there were a few vibes to Double Indemnity in it. I will admit, I did lose a little bit of what was going on towards the end there, but nothing too terrible. Overall, I give it a 7/10.
