Salt-Angelina Jolie
This was a pretty good movie. The movie got me guessing and trying to figure out what was going to happen next. Angelina's action in this movie wasn't too bad, I think she is too skinny for this role as a spy. Being scrawny made her action moves more slow and not as cool as when she was Lara Croft Tomb Raider. Overall the characters in this movie went well together and I had fun watching it!

Alice in Wonderland 2010
I liked the graphic and the computer uses of characters; the make-up and costumes were great! Johny Depp did a great job as Mad Hatter and he looked great in it too! Every character was unique and cool, but the storyline itself was kind of lame. I was expecting more excitement and adventures. More of movie for kids to watch and keep them tune.

Revolutionary Road
Although I saw the trailer for this film I was surprised. It didn't go how I thought it would've. I can relate to this film even though the time setting is around the 50's. Even life now a days is still pretty much the same stress and same issues. We live our life doing the same things and being comfortable in it because married couples are doing the same things. We go to work with the same routine and come back home to the same routine. There really is no time to catch up with your spouse or take a break from 'Life'. We Dream a better life, but get comfortable rather than achieve it. I can understand the expectations of marriage life and its struggles. This movie made really think about life and how I can make the best of it.

Slither
This movie is a disappointment. I was not tempted to watch it at all, but was curious enough after seeing it in the store every time I went shopping, to want to see what it was about. The storyline is about evil wreaking havoc on a town and infecting everyone that comes across its path. It was not scary or frightening at all. The whole movie was dull and didn't keep my interest.

Last Chance Harvey
I liked Dustin Hoffman and I felt that he did really good in this movie. I thought that Emma Thompson was the right choice to play the role opposite of Dustin. I felt her acting was good that it felt real in the moments that she was hurting. To me the movie is about love and hope that comes around as a second chance for life. Sometimes a person is so alone that they feel they should be alone and is afraid to take a chance again when love or hope is presented.
I thought this movie was well done, but maybe there could have been added to make it more intense and more heart felt. Overall I liked the movie.

Shutter Island
I liked this movie! When I first saw the previews for Shutter Island I thought it was going to be more of an horror, but it wasn't. The story line was good and went well together. The twist at the end of movie made sense and I thought it was really well done. I liked Leonardo DiCapro and Mark Ruffalo and felt that they played the characters really well. The whole movie had a great cast, everyone played their part good.
This movie makes you feel like you're able to predict what is going to happen, but as soon as you think you have it figured out, it turns around and makes it completely different. I like Shutter Island and can't say enough how much I enjoyed watching it. Although I must say towards the end of the film, once you realized what happened, it is pretty moving and sad. I feel that humans goes through traumas in their life and those that don't handle it well could turn up being insane.

The Karate Kid - 2010
I love this movie! I felt that Jaden Smith did a really good job acting out his part. I loved it especially when he cried and told him mom that he hated living in China. The emotional that he portray seem so real. Jackie Chan did a really good job too, although I thought they try to make him seem older to fit the role of the master, but I felt he should have just stay the same age he is now. That would have work out better when the movie is supposed to be more modern.
I was surprise how Jaden was transitation into his fighting skils. I thought it was clever, cute, and worked well. All the fighting scenes were done nicely even with some of Jackie's style.
The only thing that was kind of odd to me was that the fighting style was supposed to be Karate, but it was Kung-fu instead which just made the title didn't really fit with the whole movie. But overall I liked it a lot and would definitely watched it again. I would recommend this movie to anyone and any age.
