The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (Extended Version) - So the original cut of this made-for-tv film (and the two sequels) is almost 4 hours long and available for free Amazon Prime streaming right now, so over a couple nights I watched the entire first movie. As a big fan of the books and the movies, I enjoyed it quite a bit. Smaller plot threads and character bits are given a little more room and time, which I liked. There were also a couple "detective" parts that were more fleshed out so they seemed a little less... lucky, I guess. Having said that, though, nothing really essential was cut out of the film for it's international release and I'd recommend this version only to people who really enjoyed the theatrical version.
Men In Black III - Not much to say about this one other than it's fun. Nothing too heavy, nothing too terribly funny, but a good time. Josh Brolin does a great Tommy Lee Jones impression and the Andy Warhol cameo was pretty fun. Worth a watch.
Savages - I've never been much of an Oliver Stone fan, so I went into this with some serious trepidation and got pretty much exactly what I expected. It's not a bad movie, but other than enjoying the **** out of Benicio Del Toro's scenery chewing, the film didn't do much for me. I thought Blake Lively's character was really annoying, and I couldn't find anything to make me care about anything else that happened.
V/H/S - Went to a press screening of this new horror anthology with extremely high expectations and I'm happy to say I came out of it pretty satisfied. I have to write a full review for the website, but briefly I'll say that there was something to like in every segment. Some were, of course, better than others (I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think Ti West's segment might have been my favorite) and I don't know if I'd say that any of them were perfect but this film gives the whole 'found footage' subsection of horror a nice extra bit of life. Highly recommended for horror fans.
[Rec] 3: Genesis - Also went to a press screening of this on the same day. I still haven't seen the second film in the series, but I really like the first one and I'd read that this was a standalone film, so I felt ok about seeing them out of order. I was not at all prepared for this flick like I thought I'd be. The first film in the series, and the second I hear, are straight forward, found footage horror films. This movie starts out that way, but just as the infected/zombies/whatever are terrorizing this wedding, the film title pops up and everything changes from then on. This is a ****ing over the top, violent and gross zombie COMEDY and it's actually FUNNY. And they ditch the found footage thing, too! It's not exactly Shaun Of The Dead, but it's not trying to be, either. It was a LOT of fun and I recommend it highly, as long as you're ok with it not being anything like the first two.
