Female Rambo takes on the drug cartel with deathly results. Pretty decent action drama. This girl can kill you in a heart beat. Good for a rainy do nothing afternoon. 2 bananas

30 Minutes or less

Title reflects pizza parlor motto if it can't delivered within 30 minutes pizza is free. Pizza delivery guy is kidnapped and strapped into a bomb vest by two wackos who want him to rob a bank in order to pay a hit man to kill one of the wackos father. Suppose to be a comedy but it stinks. Terrible acting makes for a STUPID movie. 1/2 banana

Final Destination 5

Same ole same ole. If you liked 1-4 you'll love #5. Same plot, group of people avoid sudden death from a crumbling bridge only to be systematically killed in gruesome ways. Great special affects and 3-D make this a true gore fest. See it for the creative way people are killed but not for the acting. 2 1/2 bananas

Rise of the Apes

Very well done prequel, prequel to the original Planet of the Apes. Great special affects and a good plot add for enjoyable and lively entertainment. Story centers around how a vaccine being developed for humans by testing on apes increases intelligence in apes and how they evolve into being able to reason and talk. There is at least one more Ape movie as this movie doesn't come close to where the first one begins; and I look forward to seeing it. If you liked the first of the Ape movie with Charlsten Heston, you'll love this one! 3 1/2 bananas

Transformers-Dark side of the Moon

Other than some decent special affects, awful movie with bad acting and stupid plot. Geared towards the 6-10 year olds--my BAD! Bimbo no name lead actress has her lips so pumped up, you think she's going to explode. Not worth explaining what movie is about. And this is supposed to be the best of the three Transformers. Skip it or smuggle some drinks inside. 0 bananas

Horrible Bosses

Raunchy comedy, as good as Hangover 1 but with a great cast of characters. 3 men, who are fed up with how they are treated at work by their bosses, devise a plan for each to kill each others boss. Jennifer Anniston is smoking hot as a sluty dentist and Jamie Fox is hysterical as a supposed contract killer who goes by the name Mother-Fucker Jones. Kevin Spacey gives a terrific performance as a self centered boss who you love to hate. This movie makes the summer. Language is tough but see the movie for laughs. 4 bananas

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part two

Definitely the darkest and deadlyest of all the Potter films. Harry sets out in this final quest to kill Lord Voldemort who at the sametime is trying to kill Harry. The secret to killing Lord Voldemort and his snake companion is to find the three objects that brerak down Volemort's protective barrier.
Along the way Harry and his pals find a little love as well.
Sorry to see Harry leaving as he has been a fixture on the movie scene. Great special affects as usual make this one of the best but darkest of all. 3 1/2 bananas

Mr Popper's Penquins

Jim Carry, as Mr Popper, has delivered to him from his deceased father, crates of penquins. Comedy ensues as Carry learns to live with these animals as they steal the show and help bring his family back together. More for the kids but I liked it. Some very funny scenes as only Carry could pull off. 3 bananas

Super 8

Not as interesting as the trailers. Train with secret government cargo is derailed while a group of youngsters are filming a movie(on super 8 film). What turns out to be an Alien escapes from the train wreck and the government closes down the area to prevent their secret which has been recorded by the young film makers. Either to high tech or to stupid for me to understand. I was expecting more from Steven Speilberg. 2 bananas

X-men: First Class

Prequel to all the X-men movies. Explains how the mutants were recruited and divided by good and bad. Fun with good special effects. Definitely worth the view as the history of how X-Men gets started is interesating. 2 1/2 bananas
