Kick Ass

Also one we watched a while back and just didn't get around to writing about it.

So, this movie is totally "geek-y". I kind of feel embarrassed to say I watched it. It is about this dorky kid and his friends. He is totally obsessed with comic books and super heroes. He asks his friends "Why does no one try to be a super hero?" Dumb question if you ask me...and his friends thought so too. But, he was determined to become a super hero. So he gets a costume and gets started. He makes a fool of himself, gets beat up a lot....and ends up with some other crazy people who think that they are super heroes too. Crazy, I know! That's what I thought as we watched it. I can't believe I actually watched this.....

I, personally, would NOT recommend this movie. I thought it was silly and not worth the money...even from the redbox. But, that is just my opinion.

Bounty Hunter

We watched this one a few weekends ago...I am just playing catch up tonight! :)


This one was surprisingly good. Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler were great together. I wasn't expecting it to be super awesome since Jennifer Aniston's movies are not usually the best.

So, Jennifer Aniston's character is a news reporter who has missed her court date a few times. So, she is turned in to a bounty hunter...who happens to be her ex-husband. Funny situation right?! It made for some good laughs, but most of them were shown in the previews on TV. Kind of disappointing, but I still laughed, so they must have been funny right?

Anyways, it would be a good one to rent. Cute and funny.

I have to say, this movie was better than I thought it would be. It WAS predictable and totally unrealistic, but not too shabby. It had it's funny moments too.

Basically the story goes.... Katherine Heigl goes on vacation with her parents to France. She meets "The perfect guy" and falls for him. But...little does she know, he is a CIA agent. Ashton Kutcher plays this "perfect guy." They end up getting married and living a perfect life. He doesn't tell her about being a spy...until he HAS to. And that is where it gets interesting. There were several moments where I thought this part was WAY to serious for Ashton, I guess because he usually plays the "funny guy" in movies. But, he did ok with the serious moments. Catherine O'Hara (who plays Katherine's mom) was HILARIOUS! Her character was pretty much an alcoholic, and some of the things she did were so funny!

We think you should see this one. It is cute and funny, but not outstanding. It made a good Friday night movie for us!
