As one reviewer put it: Terry Schiavo would have been bored by this bloated, ponderous piece of shit.

(Also it made $16 million at midnight showings last night)

Body of Lies: B-. Decent but forgettable. The twists and turns weren't terribly exciting, the political statements are clumsily handled, and the romantic subplot is unfortunate. But there are some interesting scenes and settings and the film isn't at all boring.

Leatherheads: D. Just bad. I thought a combination of George Clooney, John Krasinksi, and old timey football would be a winning combination. But no element of the film works. The tone is inconsistent as is the slapstick, the plot is uninteresting, and it's not at all funny or clever. The only redeeming part is the somewhat fun recreation of the 1920s.

The International: C-. I had high hopes for this but I didn't end up caring about anything in the film. It's clumsy in a lot of ways. The varied locations are neat and the shootout at the Guggenheim is pretty sweet.

Eagle Eye: D-. Awful. Just awful. I was very willing to suspend disbelief and just have fun. But it doesn't resolve in any sort of interesting or clever way. The characters are uniformly terrible. The dialog is horrible and there are few interactions that aren't a cliche. One of the worst films I've seen in some time.

Apparently there was some thought to continuing the Indiana Jones franchise with Mutt as the lead. *shudder*
