Batman Begins
I really liked this movie. I thought the beginning was a little slow. It took me about 20 minutes to get captivated by it. But once the actual training began I was more than enthralled. I have to admit that I do feel like little Bruce Wayne is responsible for getting his parents killed. I guess that is part of why Batman is the way he is. Overall I though it was fun. A little over-the-top for a movie that was supposed to be realistic. Katie Holmes was terrible in it. I have seen her act much better. I liked her in Go. I thought she was dry and just boring. Any female actress could have played that part. I hope she flies away on spaceship after her final audit.
Spanglish
This movie sucked. I had it on late while I was doing work. This is how I can tell if a movie is at least halfway decent. It should make me stop working and watch. There was nothing exciting about this movie at all. Rich white girl hires Mexican women to clean her house. Okay, where is plot? So far you have described every suburban household in America. Woo Hoo. I understand Adam Sandler is trying to make "serious" movies, which is a huge mistake — Punch Drunk Love was worse than this movie, but come on. No wookies, no fighting, a sex scene not worth taking my eyes off 400 lines of ASP code. Nothing but crap.
