From Sweden, Hip Hip Hora!
 
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (Swedish version, dubbed in English).
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
Mean Girls.
 
X-Men First Class

It was ok, I really kinda wanted to just skip to the parts centering on Magneto and Xavier. Kevin Bacon was a little too hammy (PUN INTENDED). Entertaining, but not a top tier superhero film in my opinion.

7.0

Men in Black III

Started off a little slow, Will Smith has some truly awful lines and Tommy Lee Jones was a very convincing cadaver. Once Agent J goes back in time, things start picking up and really redeems itself.

7.5
 
Trespass with Nic Cage was pretty good, imo.
 
Just saw Men In Black 3. Really great movie, up there with Avengers. The humor is clever, the characters are great, and the story is engaging. Definitely better than the second movie, and I'm one of the few people who liked that one. :D
 
Saw Mozart's Sister with English subtitles. 7/10, but mostly for the music.
 
1408. Horror movie based on Stephen King novel. Well acted, but not only average movie.
 
The Departed. Awesome film.
 
I watched John Carter last night. Not as bad as the reviews made it out to be, but then again I am a sci-fi nut. The film suffered from some poor pacing and tension building, along with a lack of focus in the middle and a poorly edited beginning, along with feeling like some 1950's sci-fi books I've read (like the Dominic Flandry books), which isn't necesarily a bad thing. As to be expected with a summer blockbuster, the acting was pretty much of a bargain basement quality, but the princess made nice eye-candy.
If you like sci-fi, I would rate it 7/10. It was a perfectly enjoyable movie to spend an evening watching. Otherwise, probably a 4/10.
 
Saw Ridley Scott's Prometheus yesterday, and thought it was very good. I'd make this recommendation to anyone planing to see it - read up on the story outline on wiki - otherwise it might be a bit confusing. Also see; Prometheus TED Viral Clip on Youtube.com.
 
I want to be confused :p

I'll have to check that one out.
