Get Smart Review

Last night I got to see the movie "Get Smart", I found the movie to be very funny. The cast of the movie was great, especially Steve Carrell. I never saw the original TV show, but I found myself laughing out loud when watching this. I recommend it.

The Incredible Hulk review

I just caught The Incredible Hulk last night at my workplace. Let me start off with the question, "Is it better than the 2003 version?" Yes it is. Everything about this version is better than the 2003 version. I remember seeing the trailer for The Incredible Hulk a few months ago and feeling like this one wouldn't achieve much at all, well I was wrong. I found myself really enjoying this movie. There was plenty of action. Edward Norton did a great job as Bruce Banner, along with the rest of the cast. Also, you get a cameo by Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark. I do recommend this movie. Thumbs up!

Also this weekend, The Happening is released. This will be M. Night Shyamalan's first R rated movie. So far, the reviews for the movie have been heavily negative. I remember when The Sixth Sense came out 9 years ago and how much attention it got, and how everyone was looking forward to his movies, and how much they love the twist ending. It doesn't seem like his recent efforts in the thriller/suspense area are too great. I never saw The Village or Lady in the Water, but I didn't hear great things from them.His next movie will The Last Airbender, which is based off the cartoon Avatar by Nickelodeon, they are doing a live action version of the cartoon and he will be directing. I look forward to see him try something else.

On DVD this week, Jumper and The Bucket List along with other releases. I bought Jumper on Tuesday, and watched it already, the quality of the DVD is good.

Weekend recommendations

Just wanted to let you know that last night I saw Kung Fu Panda, and I recommend it, especially to those who have kids, it is something great for the entire family. I found the movie to be entertaining, it had a good story and it was funny, and of course the animation was good. That is my big recommendation for the weekend.

Next weekend is the Incredible Hulk and the Happening. I have been scanning through a few reviews of the Incredible Hulk and they seem positive, so there is hope that this one is better than the one released 5 years ago. When I see it, I will let you know what I think.
