Took a couple weeks off work so I watched a few movies.
Easy A: Awesome movie. Seriously. The dialogue is is so well written, particularly between Olive and her parents. Emma Stone, Patricia Clarkson, and Stanley Tucci have such an incredibly realistic delivery and chemistry with each other. Very, very funny stuff.
Nightmare on Elm Street (remake): I didn't mind it. I liked the more serious Freddy by far. A more indepth look at his background was cool too. Was the movie necessary? Not really, but it was worth watching.
The Last Exorcism: I liked it right up to the end then I thought they went way over the top. It's pretty effective at making wonder just what the truth of the matter is which made it engaging. Then the ending got all stupid and pretty much ruined it for me.
The Social Network: I really don't get what the hype was about. It's not a bad movie, but it's not great either. I didn't see anything that would make me want to watch it ever again. It's just not that interesting. I found it somewhat interesting to see how Facebook got started, but I really didn't care about any of the characters.
