The Social Network, Wall Street 2 and World's Greatest Dad

I am going to quiet few reviews of the first two, Film Nut Peter G did them already.

The Social Network, great film, loved seeing the story of how facebook came to be. Justin Timberlake finally showed some acting teeth & I approve of the new Spider-man. Jesse Eisenburg proves he's more than the guy they get when they can't afford Michael Cera... Gripping story. I personally felt sorry for Mark Zuckerburg by the end of it, while the friend I saw it with said he didn't feel bad for him at all and that he was an asshole start to finish. 4 1/2 stars!

Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps - It was interesting enough, quiet relevant considering the recession we're in or just out of or whatever is actually going on with all the money. Sam Witwicky is trying to save the world by being a stock brocker and funding something to create clean energy. Megatron comes out of jail, manages to trick Sam into thinking he's a good guy... guess what he isn't. It gets a bit boring and then everything turns out alright... 3 stars.

World's Greatest Dad - Robin Williams would say don't call it a come back... because unfortunately it isn't. This film is out of most cinemas now. Doubt maybe people have seen it, but it is very good. Robin Williams plays a failed writer, who teaches at a high school, his son dies via what looks like suicide, Robin becomes a hit with his dead sons fake diary. This is a very funny but also deep film. This film really needed more notice. 3 1/2 stars.
