Chick 2 says:perks-of-being-a-wallflower-2

Tom Hardy throws a kid over a paintball obstacle as the kid screams, “it’s just a game, mister!” in This Means War.

The countdown to the Hunger Games sounds as Katniss decides whether or not to go for the arrows.

Zac Efron stars in The Lucky One.

The Hulk smashes Thor in his handsome Norwegian face after they take down a huge alien together.

David’s disembodied head continues to talk calmly to Dr. Shaw as they escape in Prometheus.

All the 80’s music and hair in Rock of Ages.

Any given “good guys continue to fight against all odds” moments in The Dark Knight Rises.

A young cast moves you and Emma Watson is not at all Hermione in The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Thinking OMG I have no idea how this will or even should end in Looper.

Beautiful lighting and cinematography in Skyfall.

Crying hysterically to Anne Hathaway’s I Dreamed a Dream.

Short Takes: Prometheus

Chick 2 says:

Overall Concept:  B-    I feel like I’ve seen most of this before, in either Leviathan or Mission to Mars.  But I did like the “where do we come from” concept

Acting: A   Especially Fassbender as creepy robot David, please see here.

Script:  B

Cinematography:  A

Hotness of Cast:  C    Fassbender, normally hot, is just creepy.  The one hot guy is kind of a jerk.  Idris Elba is hot with confidence.

Wardrobe: A    Cool quasi-space attire

Location:  A    Is that really Iceland, or an actual unknown planet?

Climax:  B+     A bit stretched out

Special Effects: A+  and yikes
