I went to see Salt.
it was interesting, there was a slight twist that I didnt predict, and there were things that were easy to predict.
I just got done watching Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. (the swedish version made in 2009)
can I just say amazing?
they did a very good job puttting author Steig Larsson's story to film, the actress who played Lisbeth actually embraced the character and became Lisbeth Salander, and the actor who played Micael Blomqvist was exactly who I pictured in the book.
I think they did the very best job.
There is to be an American version released in 2011, rumors are that Daniel Craig will be playing Blomqvist (which makes me happy)
I just finished watching the entire 5th season of CSI: NY and I forgot how funny that show is, meaning the zippy one-liners that the whole cast slings around. I think the writers are mad, mad, mad, genius's
And now I am watching the 5th season of Criminal Minds.
I like the 40 minute mind-freak that happens with police porcedurals and crime drama's.
I finished watching Being Human Season Two - I wasnt sure I would like it, and there were two things that didnt make sense to me, but all it all it was a pretty good season.
I watched The Girl Who Played with Fire - still good, not as wordy as the book, and got the point across.
I am watching CSI:NY Season 6, and I remembered how much Stella annoyed me and *spoiler alert* I am so glad that they replaced her for season 7.
Toy Story 3 was pretty much a waste of time (but it was saturday so no worries)
RED was hysterial, I read the graphic novel, but I will admit that the film was waaaaaaaaaaay better (I might be biased as a fan of Bruce Willis)
There is a british series I really like, Midsomer Murders, I am on set 16, unfortunatly, America only gets four of the episodes, there are more in a season in England.
And Doc Martin series 2 is on my tv stand to watch eventually.
(good thing about working at a library, I can get out movies and dvd's to watch whenever)
recently watched Sherlock, a modern spin on Sherlock Holmes, put on by BBC America, running on PBS until Dec 7th if you want to check it out (added bonus, one of the writers is Steve Moffat of Dr. Who fame.
and Watson is played by Martin Freeman - who played Arthur Dent on Hitchhikers Guide.

Finished Ugly Betty. all the seasons. I am not entirely sure I like the way it ended, on one hand, I wanted her to end up with Daniel, as they now had a very close relationship, and I could see it becoming something more... on the other hand, I didnt, though they had been through alot together, it made me happier to think of them as very good friends. (he was 'casual' with Amanda again, until she decided to dump him for his 1/2 brother, which was typical Amanda, but sweet too in a way, but it left Daniel feeling alone, and we all know that he is the jeaous type anyway. I think that the writers did an amaizing job (though I was irritated at the whole Henry debacle. sheesh.) I am glad Betty followed her dreams though, and in London no less :)
I had a few wisdom teeth out recently, and I was watching season one of Community, which I find hysteical, and I really hope it stays on.
I also watched: From Paris with Love (lol to John Travolta's character) Stardust (Charlie Cox is adorable, the way he laughed at everything makes me smile everytime) Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (mostly because I was on an America Ferrera kick) and I watched Dragonball: Evolution (background noise mostly, I was home alone most of that day)
I am by no means a movie reviewer, these are just my thoughts on the things I've watched recently.
Enjoy
