BradWesley123's Movie Journal- July 2012

Watchable, with a solid roster of actors, but really conventional and bland.

Poor in every category; writing, directing, acting, etc. The main sin here though is that its just so damn unoriginal.

Slow at times, but funny and endearingly charming.

The Dark Knight

Blunt and McGregor's chemistry gives the movie much of its joy, but it's too predictable and plodding to really get invested in.

De Niro and Dano are very strong, and for the most part keep it watchable, but its (Father-Son relationship) such well-worn dramatic territory that if you're got to make a movie about it, you've got to make it interesting.
