Ok I know I haven’t done any reviews in awhile, but I have indeed been seeing a lot of movies since my last review, so I’m gonna try to squeeze in a few mini reviews here.
I saw Conan the Barbarian just a few hours ago and I must saw it is supremely manly. From the opening scene to the final fight, it was brutal and awesome. I must confess that I’ve never seen the original, but for what it’s worth I liked this one. 8 out of 10.
I have also seen Rise of the Planet of the Apes, which was surprisingly amazing. It’s sorta a remake of Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, but with all the changes it might as well be considered it’s own movie. I loved this movie, it’s amazing how they got me to care more about the apes then the humans. Perfect end to the summer movie season, 9 out of 10.
Finally I saw The Help. I thought it was just gonna be another period piece about racism, but it was much better then I expected. Well directed and perfectly cast this movie has a moment for everyone, even a very unexpected joke that seemed to translate to all age groups, in my theater anyway. 10 out of 10.
