Shutter Island
This movie has a lot going for it. Scorsese's a great director,
DiCaprio's a great actor. The overall production is solid. The ending
wasn't exactly a surprise, and it's still a bit more ambiguous than I'd
like, although I'm not sure what could've been done to change that.
Looper
There are a lot of plot holes in this movie. There are also a lot of
prosthetics on Gordon-Levitt's face, which were rather distracting and
unnecessary.
I liked a lot of the concepts presented here, and I really enjoyed the first part of the movie, when we got to see a bit of the Gibson-esque future. Unfortunately, it went downhill from there. Some of the quiet moments didn't work, and the ending was unsatisfying.
I don't like Emily Blunt. She doesn't do anything for me. This is the first movie where I noticed Paul Dano, though, and I loved his character.

Skyfall
This is the only James Bond movie I've ever seen. It was okay. Judy Dench is really old and wrinkly. Javier Bardem was a good villain.
The Dark Knight Rises
Perfectly average movie. Bale and Hardy were good, and the story was
interesting, but nothing really blew me away. At least I can say I saw
Batman on opening day without getting shot.
Fright Night
Colin Farrell was a great vampire. The movie was fun, smart, funny, and had a few unexpected moments.
