    Wanted, so what did you think?

    Posted by Gene in Summer Movies

    I haven’t heard much about the Wanted movie, with Angelina Jolie & James McAvoy. Was it any good, did any of you see it? What did you think? Give us a review or post one on the Colamovies.com review board.

    A young man finds out his long lost father is an assassin. And when his father is murdered, the son is recruited into his father’s old organization and trained by a man named Sloan to follow in his dad’s footsteps.

    Sounds like a good movie, add some Matrix style special effects and you’ve got a decent action flick…?

    WALL•EFinally, i’ll get to catch WALL•E this weekend, I know i’m late to the party, but what did you think about it?

    After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL•E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that WALL•E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet’s future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans (who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home). Meanwhile, WALL•E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen.

    The HULK, really?

    Hulk

    I was going to write about my experiences seeing the new Narnia movie, Price Caspian, this weekend but instead i’m compelled to mention this years upcoming flop-fest “The Incredible Hulk”. Never mind 2003’s Hulk movie, I guess we are supposed to just forget about that one. Universal and Marvel are “rebooting” the franchise this year with a new movie. Check out the previews in HD here. I gotta say for the record, i’m predicting this a major flop. Not really any kind of earth shattering prediction there, take a look at the trailer and see for yourself. Makes me worry for Ed Norton though…

    Iron Man is apparently the man…

    Iron ManIron Man is the first major “blockbuster” to hit the theaters this summer, and it’s a doozy. Getting all sorts of great reviews it is shaping up to be the early hit of the season. Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 94, that’s pretty high for that site and Metacritic is bringing it in at about 78, also pretty high.

    Iron Man

    Iron Man

    Not sure how many of you have seen the new trailer for Iron Man. I really loved it and I get the feeling this is going to be another one of those Marvel home-runs like with Spider Man and X-Men. When I heard that Robert Downey Jr. was cast as Tony Starks it made me do a double take but seeing him in Zodiac was actually what sold me on the choice.
