With my wife home since last week we have been watching about 1 movie a day. Usually we watch with or after dinner. We watched Role Models on Sunday and National Treasure 2 on Monday.
Like I said earlier, I shouldn't really call them reviews since I hate giving out anything that could be deemed the least bit spoiler-ish or even going over major plot points. I guess I should try and think of a different name than "review". Unfortunately both movies were not very interesting.
Watching Role Models, I had a couple of small laughs in the first part of the movie, but the last half it was mostly crickets. While the role-playing McLovin was mildly amusing in the beginning. The last scenes were rather difficult to watch.
I am not a big Nicholas Cage fan. I picked up National Treasure 2 because I thought my wife would like it, but she barely lasted 30 minutes. Another unoriginal action adventure movie. The only thing that was mildly interesting was the "balance room" scenes. I know it is a Disney film and I am probably no longer in their target demographic, but the movie was really a pile of garbage.
We didn't watch any movie tonight, but we did watch 24. With the end of the season approaching they still have the both of us hooked. I am hoping the writers will deliver.
Two stars out of 5 for both movies. 24 this season has been 4 out of 5 stars.
