Maniac is a dope film. Elijah Wood was superb.

A Serious Man - #e #p #i #c film brahs

Michael Stuhlbarg is a phenomenal actor.

Spring Breakers 5/10. Billing lies mfs. Shallow film with way too many repeated lines and alternating scenes.

End Of Watch - went under the radar a bit last year, but it's one of my top films of 2012. The bromance between Gyllenhaal and Pena is awesome.

Fight Club and Rain Man. Both for the first time.

Man of Steel. I found it an enjoyable watch. Many of the gripes people had with the movie didn't bother me at all. The shaky cam that people weren't very fond of I actually liked. An event that happens near the end of the movie bothered some people, but I thought it was the best part of the movie. It set the the foundation of what we can expect from superman in future films. It made away with one of the characters age old self-imposed restriction and that is what made it great. Superman had always been the most boring major super hero due to his immense power and clean cut way of being. People asked for a grittier version of superman and the movie delivered that. My major complaint with the movie is that it didn't end where it should have. It tacked on some rushed scenes of Clark kent in order to set up future films. It seemed unnecessary in this instance since somebody who was paying attention already knew that the world they created teased at not only opportunities for future superman films, but also other DC heroes leading up to the planned justice league film.

No homo, but Henry Cavil. Mirin' those aesthetics.

7/10-Destruction was on epic proportions. Appreciate that the film's leads are from small-screen fame, better quality to be found there. Made as good as you can from a film about superman, ridiculous how that conception hit the big time.

And then you went on to break the first rule of FC: You don't talk about FC. Not cool, man.

Watched like 30 mins of it.

I had Argo & Life of Pi on my flight. #exceptional

Life of Pi got a bit annoying at the end, though.

Man of Steel was good.

Rai, I'm diggin the swag in your sig, mf.

I'm mirin your digging.

I'm diggin' your mirin' of my diggin'.

Despicable Me 2 - funny.

That was such an informative review, SB. Made BG's reviews look like utter shit.

Utter class sponge bob, I smell a career in the coming.

Stop being so harsh. A truly great writer does not show all of his cards-he draws the reader in. Sponge Robert Squarepants has done a fine job.

Fast 6-  

Bard the Bowman was da gawd though.

The Bourne Trilogy - good stuff.

Just let SB have his own thread, separate it from the lightweights.

Watched Scent Of A Women. Pacino was a beast as per usual.

G.I.Joe retaliation- 8/10, Dwayne Johnson carried that film. Dominating presence, haven't seen that type of performance in a while.

I hope there are some good movies on my 4 hour flight

Hope they have a documentary about 9/11.

And I hope you have an Arab flight attendant.

Fast 6 - Not as good as the 5th one, which in turn wasn't as good as the 4th one. Lots of things in this film annoyed me. There were a couple of cool bits though.

Juno - really nice movie.
