Surrogates stars Bruce Willis and is a sci-fi movie that came out in 2009. I still haven’t seen yet (even though its sitting on my DVD shelf). I’ll watch it eventually; the movie didn’t really get good reviews though. The movie revolves around a college student murder linked to the man who helped create a high-tech surrogate phenomenon that allows people to purchase un-flawed robotic versions of themselves. All righty.

A Serious Man is one of the latest films from The Coen Brothers. It stars Michael Stuhlbarg, Sari Lennick, Fred Melamed, and Richard Kind. It’s about an ordinary man who is trying to find balance and understanding in the world. I haven’t seen the movie but I’m not sure I’m going to. It doesn’t seem like a movie I would enjoy. The Coen Brothers movies are hit or miss with me; sometimes I like them and sometimes I don’t.

I used to like Michael Cera’s movies but lately I’m just sick of his characters. They end up being all the same; awkward dorky high school kids wearing a hoody and that listens to indie rock. The guy is 21 now; don’t you think he should be playing someone who isn’t 16 anymore? Youth In Revolt is about a young outcast who likes this girl. But she doesn’t like him back so he creates an alter-ego that’s the complete opposite of him. Girls like bad boys right? His alter-ego makes him a wanted criminal, and everything just gets out of hand.

The Hurt Locker came out in the summer time and I unfortunately missed it. But it’s available on video now so I’m sure I’ll check it out shortly. In the meantime, the movie has been getting a lot of recognition this award season. It’s been nominated in almost all awards and it looks like a terrific movie. An intense one as well! The score is also available now but i’m not sure how I feel about it yet.

Bright Star is a movie about English poet John Keats. The movie is based on the last 3 years of Keats’ young life. Keats has a love affair with his next door neighbor Fanny Brawne, but his life ends way too short at the age of 23. Oops, spoiled the movie. I didn’t even knew this movie existed, but it’s now available on DVD as well.

The Stepfather is the latest movie I haven’t seen and probably won’t be seeing anytime soon. The movie is a thriller and is about…a Stepfather? I guess a guy comes home from Military school and finds out that his mom banging some random guy. Turns out that guy is a killer and he gets help from his girlfriend and friends to take this guy down. ZZZZZZ.

When people think of Californication, music isn’t the first thing they think of. They think of sex, nudity, and hilarious moments from Hank Moody, played by David Duchovny. A Music geek like me will notice the music, which I have, but I’m not sure other people will. Bands or musicians like Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Rob Zombie, Nick Cave, and Steve Earle have been played on the show. For the third season, some of the bands or musicians on this soundtrack include Rob Zombie, Widespread Panic, The Monks, G.G. Allin & The Criminal Quartet, Spider Problem, John Neal and Blind Pilot.

Sam Raimi is back making horror flicks, something he was born to do. He hasn’t done a horror movie since the Evil Dead movies. Since he has a few more movies under his belt, I’m sure this is ten times better than what he started out making. Drag Me To Hell is about a loan officer who turns down a loan, and gets cursed in the process. If she doesn’t pass along the curse, she gets sent to Hell. So this is family film then?

The latest shoot ‘em up movie is Gamer, starring Gerard Butler and Michael C. Hall. The movie was directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, who have done Crank and Crank: High Voltage. So you can expect more of the same with high-paced action, and outrageous storylines. I haven’t seen the movie but I’m sure it’s an enjoyable flick that doesn’t make you think too much.

Naked Ambition’s CD cover caught my eye considering there were half naked women on the cover. I figured, why the hell not and check out the soundtrack. The film is a documentary, made by celebrity photographer Michael Grecco. The tagline is an R-Rated look at the X-Rated Industry. Something tells me I would love to see this documentary!
