Immortals: 5/10 - Uninspired. I really only watched it because I'd never seen anything with Henry Cavill before, and I wanted to see if he's going to make a good Superman or not. Judging from his performance here and his overall look, I think he'll kill as Superman.
Drive: 8/10 - Fantastic. The movie had a very unique feel that carried all the way through, and I very much enjoyed the car chase sequences. My only complaints are what I found to be a waste of Bryan Cranston in his very small part, and the lack of any real depth to the villain characters. They just felt like target practice for the Driver, and at no point did I feel that they were any threat to him whatsoever.
The Switch: 7/10 - Jason Bateman getting to play a foul-mouthed jerk off made my day. Pretty basic "Freaky Friday" plot where two opposite characters switch bodies and then learn lessons about how they're terrible people so that they can switch back and make their lives better, but it was fun nonetheless.
Moneyball: 8/10 - I hate Brad Pitt, but since I felt he was actually trying here, and I found the overall story very interesting, I enjoyed this film immensely. Jonah Hill is great here as well and proves that he's not just that foul mouthed fat kid from "Superbad." Maybe he'll have a real acting career ahead of him after all and will be the HBK to Michael Cera's Jannetty.
