Last Movie Watched

The Green Lantern. I wasn't interested in it beforehand and then I saw it had 22% on RT so I figured it'd suck, but it was actually a pretty good movie. Not my favorite as far as superhero movies go but I didn't understand why it got such low ratings. It definitely could have been better, but it deserves at least a 50%.
 
Elephant and Zero Day. Both are loosely based on Columbine, but I swear I'm not a school shooter =P

I'd heard Elephant was really good & then Zero Day randomly showed up in my Netflix suggestions. So I knocked them both out back to back kind of to compare. Elephant was good, definitely an interesting way to tell a story but I liked Zero Day better. I think it went a little deeper (which is to be expected because it focused on the shooters, while Elephant kind of showed how several different people experienced the day of the shooting) and it had a very real feeling to it. The dialogue and everything was way more believable than your average movie-based-on-real-events.
 
Unleashed & the New Guy. I actually liked Unleashed, which I wasn't expecting. It had enough of a story mixed in with the action to be good. The New Guy was a typical early 00s comedy, but it had some funny parts & some really random cameos (Gene Simmons, Tony Hawk, Henry Rollins, Jerry O'Connell, Vanilla Ice, Hasselhoff, and Tommy Lee to name a few).

Also started watching Last Days yesterday but it was kind of boring so I stopped midway through. Probably let that one sit for a while & watch something different next.
 
Red Riding Hood, the new horror flick out. It wasn't bad... If you take out the whole 'twilight' concept in it. However, it had more gore and action in it then any movie I've ever seen that included sparkling vampires and High Schoolers full of angst, and giving vampires/werewolfs some greased up, backdoor, hammer-time lovemaking session.
