Tonight I went to see Ratatouille during a preview offered to Myspace users in Boston. Overall the movie was GREAT! It was really funny, often in unexpected places, the storyline kept you engaged the entire time and the overall mood was lighthearted and inspiring. A real "feel-good" movie. I admit I was a bit skeptical going in, I mean the idea of a rat in a kitchen kind of left me queasy, but I left the theater excited to see it again when it is released. The voice actors are excellent and the animation is amazing. I've been to Paris before and the overall views were very accurate. At times I could tell exactly where in the city the events were taking place. Overall a fabulous movie, I highly recommend it!

Spider-Man 3

Cheesy with a capital C
5 May 2007
This was by far the cheesiest movie I have seen in years. The entire show was ridiculous. Even the fight scenes, the only semi-redeemable part of the movie, were so dumb that the audience was laughing. The entire theater was having a great laugh at the movie, not because it was supposed to be funny but because it was so ridiculous. Even the supposed dramatic scenes had a laugh. The plot was weak and there were scenes that took up time but didn't really further the plot at all. If I had been watching it at home I would have turned it off about half way through. Don't watch it, and if you absolutely HAVE to see it, save your money and wait for the rental.
The Da Vinci Code
(2006)
Highly Disappointed
20 May 2006
I was highly disappointed with the DaVinci Code movie. After finishing the book I was anticipating a great movie, but it didn't deliver. I thought there were way too many plot deviations from the story line in the book. I understand that some of the plot had to be changed to speed the story along, but most of what was changed was either unnecessary or way off the original plot line. It didn't go as deep into the breaking of the code as the book did. It also seemed to me that Robert Langdon didn't know much. The book made him seem highly intelligent and in the movie he seems to be learning just as much as Sophie about the grail. The end took a VERY different turn and overall I was just annoyed with the changes. I am recommending to my friends to skip the movie and read the book instead.
