J and K at the Movies - Reel Reviews for Real Movie Fans: November 2009
http://jandkatthemovies.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 23, 2009. Forgive the hyperbole but “2012” is THE best movie of 2009! Despite what some erstwhile critics may think, this is a nearly perfect movie. It has everything those of us who are completely devoted to this genre want in a film with a bonus of compelling and well acted characters, too. However, because the calendar ends on that date the speculation about what might happen after has run amuck. Enter “2012”. Fast-forward to the year in question and we find Jackson Curtis (played by ...

J and K at the Movies - Reel Reviews for Real Movie Fans: April 2009
http://jandkatthemovies.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 13, 2009. It was a good film that had more of an indy feel to it. It's worth seeing, especially if you grew up in the 80s, but it's not necessary to catch it in the theaters. I have had it up to there with adolescent male coming of age BS humor! I have successfully managed to avoid cinematic dreck like “Superbad” and “Knocked Up” in much the same way as I avoid reality television, by treating it like an especially virulent version of bird flu! At this point, I must give my props to the only...

J and K at the Movies - Reel Reviews for Real Movie Fans: June 2009
http://jandkatthemovies.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 2, 2009. 8221; Ah yes, truer words were never spoken! So yes, I put aside the pretentious me and let the Slam Bang Action Flick me just sit back and enjoy! And enjoy we did. All of the other action variety explosions and such are plentiful and jump-cutty enough to keep your interest. No problems there at all. But there’s always one, isn’t there? If this is the project Mr. Bale was working on during his infamous meltdown then I would have to say to the meltdownee – get over it! New Moon - ok.

J and K at the Movies - Reel Reviews for Real Movie Fans: Legion
http://jandkatthemovies.blogspot.com/2010/02/legion.html
Monday, February 8, 2010. Ok, so there’s these people in a diner in the middle of the desert and one of them is pregnant but what they don’t know is that God has given up on mankind and has ordered Archangel Michael to kill the baby so He can destroy the human race. You now know all there is to know about the plot of this abysmal movie. Unfortunately, the director, Scott Stewart and the writer, Peter Schnick seemed to feel the need to explain even more about this tissue thin plot – ad nauseum! J and K at...

J and K at the Movies - Reel Reviews for Real Movie Fans: Daybreakers
http://jandkatthemovies.blogspot.com/2010/01/daybreakers.html
Thursday, January 21, 2010. I have lately heard critics lamenting the recent glut of vampire movies and, while I agree to some extent, I have to say that “Daybreakers” provides at least an entertaining new twist on the genre. It’s the year 2019 and the vampires haven’t been made in the traditional way, they are a result of a viral epidemic. As most of the world’s population is turned to bloodsuckers (how could the politicians stand the competition? In addition to good story, Sam Neill, Ethan Hawke, and W...

J and K at the Movies - Reel Reviews for Real Movie Fans: May 2009
http://jandkatthemovies.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 19, 2009. I am most happy to report that “Angels and Demons” does not suck. That speaks specifically to Ron Howard’s enormous skill as a film maker. Mr. Howard manages to take another one of Dan Brown’s misbegotten attempts at literature and produce a rather pleasing action film. I have one concern and it’s a small one – just for Mr. Brown, who if he even reads this has left it long before this. What the hell is wrong with American women? J and K at the Movies. Monday, May 11, 2009. No, not ...

J and K at the Movies - Reel Reviews for Real Movie Fans: J's Best of Picks for 2009
http://jandkatthemovies.blogspot.com/2010/01/js-best-of-picks-for-2009.html
Tuesday, January 12, 2010. J's Best of Picks for 2009. Yes, the inevitable year-end wrap up. However, not being much for lists per se, I’m going to put my two cents worth in a bit differently than my PIC did. Here goes:. Best Movie of 2009. My second big issue remains the infamous Red Matter. Come on now, couldn’t the writers have given just a little more thought to that? Even a made up chemical sounding name would have been better! Now, for a few other succulent picks:. Worst Movie of 2009. New Moon - ok.
