Watch it. Rusty delivers, as always. Kate Blanchett is there as well. Good cast, good story - its sort of a prequel to the real story, mind you. 
Big movie - been a while since something like this came out.
A typical Ridley Scott movie. bBig-budgeted and well delivered.

The Informant

Matt Damon trying to pull an occasional George Clooney. Remember 'Syriana'? Put on the weight, do away with the good looks, the complete make-over. 
George Clooney co-produced this one. Looks very much like 'Men who stare at goats' combined with a Coen brothers flick. Boring at times, very sterile most of the times. Not a complete waste of time if you like that type of cinema but nothing exciting really.

Iron Man 2

Crap. Dont waste your time. Downy Jr. keeps waving his hands in the air, commanding his computer to come up with stupid stuff like, for example, a new element! It's that lame. Whatever happened to Micky Rourke's face!
What a shame though - part one so rocked...

Sex & the city 2

I almost stopped watching it after the first 10 minutes, not because its a chick-flick, but I seriously thought that Lisa Minnelli's face would melt at any moment. Mrs wouldn't let me watch anything else so I ended up watching it completely. I have to admit, part one of this series was not bad. Not bad at all. But this, well, its not that good, to put it simply. Tries to ride on the hype and loyalties a bit too much. You feel like they did it because they thought they had to. Simply put, you could watch a bit of it when it gets to TV or if you're fan of the actual TV series, you could watch it as a long episode and then move on. Not worth wasting money on it though.

Funny People (2009)

Adam Sandler and totally watchable. You can even tell people you watched it. Seth Rogen is there. The bespectacled fat guy is there too. Hell, there're so many familiar faces it this movie. Good story. No, powerful story. Eric Banna plays Aussie after a long time - and keeps it real. A refreshing movie all in all.

The Hangover (2009)

So many people loved this movie. But so many people hadn't seen a lot of the stuff that has been produced on similar turfs for quite some time now. This a Seth Rogen movie, without Seth Rogen.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)

Drags on a bit. Conceptually, its not a bad story. Interesting. But after a while, the bread crumbs on the coffee table from yesterday's breakfast grab your attention and for the first time in years, you feel like they need to be taken care of straight away.
