Edge of Tomorrow:  Lip-out birdie.

Good, but flawed, concept.  Very interesting story regarding time manipulation.

Having Jennifer Blunt is a definitely +++

Alright, here's a weird one. I watched "Under the Skin"

While watching it, I was thoroughly annoyed with the pace, overly dramatic music and the fact that they never bother to explain to viewer ANYTHING THAT'S GOING ON. If I had of posted this right after watching the movie I'd have given it a triple bogey, but here's the thing, I haven't been able to get the images and themes of this movie out of my head for going on three days now. The more I reflect on it, the more I like it...

Eagle. A very, very strange Eagle, but I'll be damned if it wasn't in fact an Eagle nonetheless.

Oh, and despite starring Johansson, it's a Scottish movie and very, very un-American in style.

Bonus Points were awarded for getting see Scarlette Johansson's tasty bits.

I would give it a bogey.  Did not like it one bit.  I was a bit surprised by SJ's figure.  She seems rather plump compared to her PR photos or movie posters.  I guess that is what photoshop does to one's figure.

No explanation on the story line (if you haven't read the book, which by the way is completely different than the movie), makes it very difficult to like.

Parenting , with Seth Rogan - bogey.  They leave the baby next door and party with a fraternity.  Can you say "hello DSS?".  Did not enjoy it.

New DIsney/Pixar movie: Inside Out, skip 1 minute. Hope it's better than Brave, which wasn't bad, but not Pixar par excellence.

The Incredibles. With no hesitation I give this flick a birdie. A great kids movie that adults can get into as well.

Pirate Radio or originally, The Boat that Rocked. I love this movie. Especially when I'm feeling anti-establishment.

Of course, some dramatic license was taken - here's the true story: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=120358447

Gone Girl gets a birdie from me. Acting was good, cinematography was great and I liked how screwed up the characters were. You can pick apart the plot and the plot twist but overall I thought it was a compelling story.

I read and watched the spoiler reviews - I know the twists and turns and what happens at the end - and I still want to see this in the theater.

Gone Girl , bogey.

Now, I knew what the "twist" was before I went. I still can't see it earning more than a par.

It's just too ****ed up, without rising to the level of "psychological thriller." Lame.

Couldn't sleep, found this movie in a Halloween specials section - Dead Snow. Birdie. It's got some very funny moments and is well done in terms of its horror trope. Birdie. Two words: Nazi Zombies There's a copy on YouTube: [video]http://youtu.be/lpmJ0we9zoQ[/video]
