500 Days of Summer is a romantic comedy for people who don't like romantic comedies (though people who do will enjoy it too.) It is refreshing in its rejection of the cliche romcom "rules" in favor of something unique, emotionally honest, and a whole lot funnier than the cliches. A must-see for everyone!

Sophomore series director David Yates has delivered the strongest HP film yet. He keeps the story bounding forward while nerturing the talents of the young cast. Bonnie Wright and Tom Felton are particular standouts here with increased roles in this installment. However, it still suffers from the viewer having to connect certian dots with backstory from the novel.

Paris 36 is a throughly delightful, excitingly old-fashioned French musical period piece about love of theatre. Goregously shot and costumed. See it to experience something totally different.

Taken takes about one third of its runtime to catch up to its title and can be dull at times getting there, but once it does, it is an impressive action fest which succeeds with its focus on great stuntwork using minimal CGI.
