movie reviews to save you 4 hours of time

Skip:
Flags of our Fathers - seriously short on plot. Ok, we get it - you don't think you were heros & you don't want to be paraded around. Intersperse that with lots of battle scenes. But it really doesn't need to be so long. We gave up & went to bed.

Borat - wait, people thought this was funny? As soon as it ended, we switched to South Park & laughed more in the first 30 seconds than we did during the entire movie.

Meh:
The Departed - I have absolutely no idea why this won an Oscar. Really. It was ok, but not something I'm going to recommend.

Ok:
The Illusionist - much better than the others, but not one I'm going to see again.

If you thought The Illusionist was good but not exceptional, try The Prestige, which is exceptional.

We were really impressed by "The Prestige."
