The Innkeepers
R
Yeah, I jumped a couple times, and it got the heart racing in some scenes. With all the suspenseful build up, I figured the end would be a downward spiraling roller coaster, but it just slowly came to a stop. A nail biting "what's gonna happen next?" stop. A decent haunted house picture.
Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (in 3D)
PG
Oh...now I see it, it's mostly exposition. It's surprising how much this movie doesn't hold up. The dialog, acting, and story are all weaknesses, but the design and the set pieces are stunning. I really enjoyed the 3D, especially the opening scroll and the scenes on Courascant. One down, 5 (better ones) to go.

This the one that started it all. If my parents hadn't taken me to see this, I would probably be a totally different person. And not for the better.

Thank goodness there's someone out there who understands how to make GOOD adventure movies! I think of what Whedon had to accomplish by making a movie that was a sequel to the t.v. show, that would get new people up to speed, and somehow be entertaining to everyone. The fact that he was able to pull it off makes this movie a miracle in more ways than one. Awesome.
