Jay’s Two Cents on the 2006 Movies
Caveat #1: I was pretty busy this year I didn’t get to watch too many movies. Basically if I didn’t see a movie at the drive-in or on dvd, I didn’t see it. I can only think of 2 movies I saw in a real theater all year (Borat and Superman).
Caveat #2: I got really busy in the past week with the whole having-a-baby-thing so I didn’t get to spend much time on this and so I didn’t give any reasons why I liked/disliked something.
BEST (in no particular order):
Borat
The Departed
Talledega Nights
V for Vendetta
Superman Returns
Jackass: Number Two
The Prestige
Thank You for Smoking
WORST (that I actually watched at least ½ of before turning it off or left)
Date Movie
Crank
Blood Rayne
Ultraviolet
Poseidon
Click
Nacho Libre
