Go see:
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. -FANTASTIC!
Cloverfield: I just got home from seeing this and it was GREAT. it is hard NOT to post spoilers since I am still in my post-movie discussion mode. Also, stay through the credits at the end.
Do NOT see:
I Am Legend. Well, you can go see it, but I warned you. I have a few good things to say about it but mostly it was a big ol' heap of disappointing. Will Smith was good. So was the dog aside from the fact that the Dog-As-Emotional-Audience-Manipulation thing* has been done a lot it seems. Mostly thought I wasn't very fond of it. Reasons for that later (as I promised no spoliers).
I can't wait to see:
Hellboy 2: The Golden Army. (Go HB!)
Jumper (looks promising, we'll see)
*In Independence Day no one cared about a single character in that movie as much as they cared about Boomer when he made his majestic leap over a car into Vivica Fox's arms in the service tunnel to escape the explosion. Never mind the MILLIONS of pets, therapy animals and guide dogs that would have been killed in the blast. We just wanted Boomer to live, dammit!
