One of the worst movies I have ever seen.

When: January 13

This movie was not bad - I don't agree with all the reviews saying it is the movie of our generation and the first great movie of the 21st century. It was nothing fresh or even a great story. Solid overall but nothing spectactular or award-worthy.

Maybe it's because I don't enjoy Paul Giamatti that much but I don't understand the hype about this movie. What I took away from it is that California is beautiful and wine tastes amazing - two things I already knew.

I didn't really enjoy this movie that much; I think I might have had very high expectations that have built up over four years.

I didn't want to like this on the basis that it was Danny Boyle but I got over my dislike for "Slumdog Millionaire" and loved this. James Franco. Enough said.

The talking robot. The futuristic Russian training equipment. Rocky training in Siberia by farming/working the land like a serf; this was ridiculous, but it was obviously going to be.
