Red Riding Hood



I was really interested when I first saw the trailer... and pretty disappointed after watching it.  Not very exciting, not very romantic, and not very interesting.  I'd say - PASS.

Beastly



Nothing special.  I thought it had kind of a cool concept, but overall it seemed boring and predictable.  I'd say PASS.

The Help



LOVED it!  Reminded me of "Steel Magnolias" in a way - it's centered around a group of Southern women and the relationships among them.  I laughed, I cried (twice), and I cheered all the way through the end for equality among these women.  This is seriously a MUST-SEE for all women, and although I would classify it as a chick-flick, I think men would definitely like it too - it's funny!!  So CHECK IT OUT!!!!!!

Horrible Bosses



Hilarious!  This movie turned out better and funnier than I expected... sweet!  And bonus points for not being too crude.  I definitely laughed out loud alot, and one part was so funny my stomach hurt... so I guess you could say I found it funny!  If you can handle the bad language and lots of sexual humor, it's totally worth watching, so CHECK IT OUT!

I Am Number Four



Blah.  This movie was way different than I was expecting, but not in a good way.  The story was dumb and jumbled and not even that interesting.  Too many things left un-explained.  PASS!

X-Men: First Class



I enjoyed this, although it could have been alot better.  I mostly enjoyed it because James McAvoy as Professor X and Michael Fassbender as Magneto were both GREAT!  They totally stole the show and made it fun to watch.  However, the story left me a little confused at times - I was thinking "what are they doing now?" and "I forgot why they're doing this" kinda stuff on more than one occasion.  So overall, it's BEARABLE.  Again, I wish it would have been better.  Somebody needs to do a better job of approving these ridiculous scripts!

Country Strong



Meh.  It's just okaaayyy.  The music is kinda fun and all the actors were pretty good, but the script was terrible.  The story was jumbled and left me confused at times.  Overall, I'd say it was BEARABLE.  Could have been alot better!
