Star Trek: 10/10 for me, it rocked the boat and really revived the franchise well since i'm a Trekkie myself.

Star Trek: Roughly 8/10. Certainly not less, but I can't say it totally blew me away -- which is fine, because I didn't expect it to. In fact, it was pretty much exactly what I expected in terms of quality, though the "epicness" of it all was unexpected in a way -- I mean, I knew it was aiming to be an epic take on it, but actually seeing it is a different thing. It's very different from traditional "Roddenberry" Trek, yet somehow faithful as well.

Lessee, in the last coupla weeks I've seen...
"Star Trek"- A, Hell Yes.
"Terminator: Salvation"- C, great FX (needless to say) and the Marcus character was probably the most interesting part of the last two films, but the shift from the series standard of "monster/suspense" to "war movie" made the whole thing feel pretty generic (which mighta been a good thing considering how #3 panned out).
"My Name is Bruce"- A, the scenes in his trailer alone make the film worth watching for anyone, even non-Campbell fans (those poor people).
"Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder"- B, starts out pretty funny, but just like "Beast" and "Bender's Game" the story and laughs just don't carry as well as they did in the first film (really makes me wonder how they'll all feel once they chop them all up and release the whole season in episode form). They wrap it up pretty well, but I'll always like the ending from the Devil's hands episode the best.
"Sliding Doors"- B+, great little romantic comedy with a parallel universes storyline, sans any Sci-Fi aspects. This is about the 4th thing I've seen John Hannah in this year, which is good since it's nice to know the guy's got work outside of the "Mummy" franchise.
"The 36th Chamber of Shaolin"- A-, probably THE Kung Fu movie, this one sorta sets the bar for pretty much every other film like it (i.e. jerks piss off the hero, hero goes through Hell to learn super special awesome jerk-killing techniques, jerks die). The choreography rocks and all of the scenes inside the temple are pretty good.

Krull. B. Good movie, but some of the effects are painful. But, who wouldn't want a boomerang/switchblade hybrid? The Glaive is probly one of the coolest movie weapons ever.

Terminator-B
It was good but it was a lot different from the other terminator films its just a cash cow now....
I hope the 5th one brings back the suspense the 1st and 2nd had. That would be awesome.

ABYSMAL F-

There are movies out there that seem to thrive because of their terrible quality. Films of the same caliber as an Ed Wood classic. Movies so bad, you'll enjoy watching them again and again and again.
100 M BC is one of these movies.
This movie was so terrible, it was AMAZING! I'd highly recommend it to those looking to laugh hysterically at over-hyped performances, awful special effects, and confusing camera angles.
It's about a group of men, lead by a scientist who looks like an identical twin of Sean Connery, that go back in time to-... Well, to be honest I forgot half way through the movie what they were doing. Maybe there wasn't a reason to go back in time. And if there was, it was so stupid you didn't care to the point of amnesia.
But regardless of the plot, the time travelers soon find themselves in the Jurassic Period that is strangely infested with photoshopped, Cretaceous Period dinosaurs (because T-Rexes and Raptors are COOL!).
After being chased by dino puppets and raptors that slide around on the ground, the team bump into some other stranded time travelers. One of them has amazing expressions! In almost every shot he looked like he was either constipated, or like he was trying to pop a blood vessel with his face!
The team were able to rescue the stranded guys back into the present time (maybe that was the reason for going back in time...), only to get chased by the big red T-Rex with horns that they somehow missed following them.
And to the dinosaur buffs out there, no, it wasn't a Ceratosaurus. It was a horny Rex, or "Big Red" as they called it in the movie.
So while Big Red "bubble-gum-o-saurus" chomps on down on cars and helicopters, the viewer is distracted by the fact that one of the pretty female characters isn't wearing anything under her short skirt. The guy operating the wind machine must have been a perv or something.
The porn star was saved by sending the dinosaur back in time (Duh!) and everyone living happily ever after.
The funniest part is that the filmmakers thought they actually wanted to put their names at the end of the failed movie. I didn't see anyone label themselves as the cover-up name: "Allan Smithy" in the credits. If they wanted jobs after this movie, they probably should have.
But it wasn't a waste of time. This was a hysterical execution of an other-wise stale sci-fi concept. I just hope they didn't want anyone to take this movie seriously, because I sure didn't.

heh, if you like the movie, you should definitely read the Clive Cussler books that the movie is based upon. As you would expect, the books are waaay better than the movies and Dirk Pitt should NOT be played by Matthew Mcconaughey.
last film I saw was Die Hard with a Vengence. I know its an older movie, but I hadn't seen it. It's pretty much Bruce Willis and Sam Jackson doing their usual stuff. The bulk of the movie had Bruce/Samuel running around solving riddles to keep bombs from exploding, which was pretty fun to watch actually. B+
