Burlesque (2010)

Standard sugary fare. Loved the musical numbers. Christina sings much better than she acts. And the scenes light up whenever Stanley Tucci appears.

The Ghosts Must Be Crazy - 鬼也笑 (2011)

Don't like it.

The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest - Luftslottet som sprängdes (2009)

Disappointing - considering how much I enjoyed the first film. Some good stuff, but nothing strong enough to warrant an essential viewing. Those who missed the earlier installments may feel lost if they catch this on its own.

Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame - 狄仁杰之通天帝国 (2010)

Makes for some decent entertainment, but nothing to shout about. Didn't help that there was a couple who talked almost throughout the whole show.

The American (2010)

Violante Placido has a HOT smokin' bod that has me all STEAMED UP! Despite a mainstream plot, the film takes a very non-mainstream approach (slow, low key, introspective) that makes this not a film for everyone.

Easy A (2010)

Nice.

The Girl Who Played with Fire - Flickan som lekte med elden (2009)

Not bad, but I liked the first one more. Happy to have caught this overseas as the hometown version was censored.
