Day 14: "SHERLOCK: The Blind Banker"

Sherlock and Watson versus Ninjas. Yeah it's cool. It advances the story with new characters and love interest for Watson.

This is part two of the mini series. (See day 12 for part 1) As per my rules (see "first post") this mini series is NOT disappointing. Really loving this updated Sherlock Holmes. Now i do love the Robert Downey Jr.'s rendition but this NEEDS to be a regular series.

I am going to say 3 stars but I'm waiting for Part 3 for a final Score.

Day 13: "You Again"

I grew up in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Subburb of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Went to school at St. Mary's and St. Joe's. A cathlic school, mainly rich white kids. I was a fat middle class white kid. So, I was teased and made fun of most of my accademic life.

The first girl I ever liked was named Katie. Oh how I thaught she was so cute. Then I met Caitlin. Being an okward fat youth, with no sence of swavé, girls didnt come flockimg to me. So the first gitl I asked out was this totally cool, hippie parents, chick named Stephanie. (Other two girls were more popular, and I knew my place in the world) I told a friend that I left a note in her locker, not saying who the girl was.

The race was off. Girls went racing to their locker to see if they won the Mike sweepstakes. But to them, if they got it, they were not a winner. A girl Toni freaked out because she found a letter in her locker. It was from the teacher. The look of releaf on her face was heart breaking. I was a joke. No girl wanted that letter. I was made fun of for 3 more years. (This was 7th grade)

You again is a movie about a girl tormented in high school, makes something of herself, comes home from for her brothers wedding, and finds out the bitch who tormented her in high school, is going to be her new sister.

Now don't let my sad, shitty story ruin your day. This movie is hella funny. Great cast with Sagorny Weaver, Kristen Bell, and Betty White (with guest appearance by Cloris Leachman) really brings out the revenge comedy is spades.

Good girl gets revenge then learns a lesson. A little predictable, but still one funny movie. My wife gave it 4 stars, I'm giving it only 3. I liked it and I recomend it for you.

Oh, I did eventually work up the courage to ask out both Katie and Caitlin, and they both said no. Good thing too. I might have never met my wife.

Day 12: "SHERLOCK: A Study in Pink"

This is the first in 3 of the Sherlock miniseries that aired in the BBC.  As per my rules each episode is 90 minuts each.

This is a new modern day re-imagining of the classis stories. Takes place modern day. Sherlock is a medical examiner and Watson is a Iraq vet with post tramadic stress syndrome.

The episode start with 4 suisides that are not connected but Sherlock thinks it's murder.

This new series is really well sone and cant wait to watch parts 2&3 (sat. & sun.) And see where Steven Moffit (Dir./ ex. Producer) takes this. Steven Moffit is the current mind behind Dr. Who.

If you like Dr Who, this series will not disapoint!
3 solid stars!

Day 11: "Exit Through The Gift Shop"

Art or vandalism. What is it. This documentary says it is art. Street art to be more precise.

This film is recorded by a Frenchman who is infatuated in recording EVERYTHING he does. One night, while visiting family he finds his cousin making small tile squares, in the shape of the aliens from Space Invaders. His cousin takes him out late at night as Spaceinvader placed these tiles all over the city. He meets more and more late night vandals placing art all throughout Paris. As he returns back in Los Angeles he seeks out LA's Street artists.

He comes across Banksy. (the director of this film) He is an amazing artist and a great visionary.

You have to see this. Amazing artists and great story of this crazy Frenchman. It is a MUST SEE! Tell your friends.

You'll love it. 4 stars.

Day 10: "All Good Things"

Ryan Gosling. Ok, now sigh like a love struck teenage girl. You too guys. Who doesn't just love him? But he doesn't steal the show, Kirsten Dunst does. She was amazing as a girl who falls in love with a New York Real estate tycoon.

Ryan Plays a man tormented by his mothers suicide, that he witnessed, and the over bearing father who shows no affection, and too much criticism.

Really was a good suspense thriller. Right from the gate to the final credits, this movie had me waiting to see who done it and how.

Note to all guys in love with Kirsten Dunst. Topless. Yep. Cross that one off the list. And it was useless. No reason to be in the movie. So it was perfect. (I know, male pig)

But seriously. Watch this. A Must see. Two great actors. Drugs, murder, and bad age makeup.

4 awesome Stars

I really, really tried.

I tried. I tried to watch this movie. With 355 left I try and either stick through it, or not waste my time.

I came across a movie called "Run! Bitch Run!" I got 6min28sec into it before I had to just jump ship.

First, the title doest make a lick of sence. So, run. And is it a place or road called "Bitch run"? Shouldnt it be "Run, Bitch! Run" ? More less telling the bitch to run?

The 6 minuits I watched had 3 separate topless women with 3 diffrent guys. All in the same house or something. Then one of the (for sake of argument) bitches freaks out after her john calls her a whore. So she stabs the tubby bastard, and her pimp (more like a kid rock wanna be) runs to dispose of the body.

Thats as far as I could take it. I have seen "Gigli" followed by "From Justin to Kelly", and I ware that as a badge of shame. And I couldnt get through "Run! Bitch Run!"

Day 9: "Lenny" Experiment in Dusty

Lenny Bruce was the first smart, edgy comic. From working as an MC in burlesque shows to top bill at some of the best clubs in america to  being a pioneer for the first amendment.

Now, as all good burlesque MC's, drugs and easy women were the norm. Having both in his life did not make his journey easy. From a drug addicted wife to booting heroin before a show.

Dustin Hoffman plays Lenny, damn near perfect. I have been a fan of Lenny for the past 10 years. I LOVED Dustin's performance.

The movie is directed by Bob Fosse, director of "All that Jazz" and "Cabaret". He knew what he was doing when he made "Lenny". It starts slow and a little like a soft core porn (there a lot of boobs and sex) and Dustin's performance really pulls you in. Half way in you are hooked.

With my Ratings system I Liked this movie and I recommend it, although it is not for everyone.
3 stars of 5.
