Ultimate Avengers 2 (2006)

Approached this DVD with trepidation because the previous chapter was not exactly my cup of tea. This was all right. It almost does not base itself on the comics so at least the story is newer. I still wished the Black Widow did not have that stereotypical Russian accent though.

Gran Torino (2008)

Fuck. The good news is that I really like the film. The story and characters were engaging and I found myself forgiving what I perceive were the film's flaws. Then I found out the version I watched was censored. Not that it was terribly jarring during the screening. But I should've known better. There goes my track record of giving censored films the wide berth....

Ultimate Avengers (2006)

Ho hum so-so. Having read the source material, this maturity and excitement-parred down direct-to-DVD version of the Ultimates was okay, though not essential viewing.

Batman: Gotham Knight (2008)

This is kind of a dull affair. Not that it's necessarily bad, the loose stories and Japanese animated style just isn't my cup of tea. Viewed on DVD.

Superman: Doomsday (2007)

Not bad. Had low expectations but was sufficiently entertained. The extras on the DVD were a treat for the comic fan in me.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009)

Stupidly entertaining. :)

Hansel & Gretel - 헨젤과 그레텔 (2007)

Viewed this on DVD. The young talents, the art direction and the cinematography stand out. This is a very pretty looking film. And I was satisfactorily entertained.
