    Hanna: Pretty decent. Would recommend as a rental. Simple plot with a bit of a fantastical premise that manages to stay gritty and down to earth enough to suspend disbelief. Will remind you in some ways of a Luc Besson film: Ms. Ronan's performance in this is comparable with Natalie Portman's in The Professional, and it's all around well acted. Simple script, but tells a good story with actions. As far as electronic music scores go, I'd put this Chemical Bros. soundtrack up next to Daft Punk's efforts in Tron any day, but that's just my opinion.

    The Lincoln Lawyer: Again, pretty decent. Would recommend as a rental for most fans of the genre, and to see in the theater for fans of John Grisham books/films. Film is well acted, but the action is a slow rolling boil rather than a quick ramp up to the climax. The resolution is a little too easily attained, however, and fairly predictable. A decent script, but could have used a nice punch-up in the tension department towards the end.

        I secretly like it to, but compared with alien and aliens its not in the same calibre.

          I watched all 4 alien movies within 1 week. For me, all movies were the same. There were no differences literally in storyline. Everytime it was the same crap over and over. I kept wanting Ripley to become a bad ass. Finally, in Alien Resurrection, she becomes a bad ass. That is why I liked it also.

          Overall, all films were good but watching them within 1 week meant that you can see how all films were exactly the same in terms of storyline, thrills, direction and such.

              Alien has a certain weight and relative realism to it whereas Alien Resurrection is comic book-esque. Aliens covered that style already and better.
              Look on the bright side, one day our sun will supernova red giant and this won't even be a memory.

                  That might be the worst / dumbest thing I have ever read. Congrats.

                              Not bad for a dramedy.. certainly better than the recent Judd Apatow movies I have seen that seem to get rave reviews.

                              A younger Scarlett Johansson & Steve Buscemi - good cast .

                              Might have to skim through it again.. fell asleep several times because I took an extra-strength Benadryl before watching.. damn allergies .

                                  i dont blame you for missing it, i just changed the name of the movie you saw back to its real name before the distributors decided to change it for american release because they thought americans were stupid when in fact it was just them.

                                                    nope, its kind of like the movie Ink, Little Monsters and Paranormal Activity all wrapped into one only a whole lot scarier, strange how it works out well for it, really good movie.
