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.


Transformers: Dark of the Moon

This movie has a lot of problems. I couldn't follow what was going on with the action half the time, Carly is a complete non-character, and Sam's an unlikeable jackass. The plot has more holes than a slice of Swiss cheese.

You also have the awesome (not) hour-long action sequence at the end again. I thought they would've learned their lesson from the last one: no one wants to sit through that much. Break it up into a couple of battles or something.

Fortunately, none of those things really matter to a movie like this, and I loved it anyway. We have Josh Duhamel, the name "Witwicky," Sam's parents, John Malkovich, Wash, Patrick Dempsey doing something unexpected, and several genuinely funny scenes.
