I don’t review movies. I already spend too much time jotting down irrelevant thought. I do watch a lot of movies, though, and this summer has had my bum in a cushy seat more often than usual.
Listed movies run from May to September.
So far:
| Movie | Score (*/10) | Comments |
| Iron Man 3 | 7 | Solid end to the trilogy |
| The Great Gatsby | Missed it in cinemas, will definitely catch on Netflix | |
| Star Trek Into Darkness | 9 | Liked it better than Star Trek (2009) |
| The Hangover Part III | Netflix, just to finish out the trilogy | |
| Epic | Netflix for my daughter | |
| Fast and Furious 6 | 8 | Good, and: Omg, omg, omg FF7 NOW |
| After Earth | Netflix (Don’t judge me, it’s Will smith and his adorable boy) | |
| The Internship | Netflix, in a couple years, when I’m really bored | |

The Smurfs 2 Kill me now
Yeah, this is pretty much how I feel. The Smurfs should have stayed in the 80s. They were bad enough when I was a kid!
I didn’t mind The Smurfs. I had a few of the figurines and I used to watch the show. Then I grew up. 😀
