Favorite And Most Hated Movies

Have you ever notice that some movies are either very well done and others are just terrible? I hope I am not the only person who believes because if I am, I should just go on to another planet :). Do you want to come with? I like company, and you seem like great company. But, here are my favorite and most hated movies. And to be socially correct, please do not take any offense to this because I am very outspoken.

Favorite Movies

1. Full Metal Jacket
In my opinion, the Vietnam War is probably the most interesting time period other than World War II and the 90s and what better way to express the times of the war and the 70s through this movie. It is so well done and well directed and well acted that I cannot take my eyes off. Definitely a winner for sure.
Recommendation of method of watching: Grab your favorite snack and watch in either your bedroom, living room, anywhere you are most comfortable.

2. The Reader
Ralph Fiennes and Kate Winslet are geniuses in this film. Again, the movie is set during wartime, particularly World War II and the Holocaust. It expresses the past and the later past if that makes any type of sense.
Recommendation of method of watching: Be comfortable and try not to drink anything or you might get a spit take.

3. The Yellow Handkerchief
Eddie Redmayne, Maria Bello, William Hurt, and Kristen Stewart make a great onscreen group. Although I do not like to watch anything Twilight, Kristen Stewart was not terrible nor amazing to watch, but I could not picture anyone portraying her character better. William Hurt did an amazing job, and Maria Bello was great. Eddie Redmayne's character was odd, but he portrayed it well. I love the movie because of its simplicity.
Recommendation of method of watching: During a long car ride when everyone else is asleep

Most Hated Movies

1. Madagascar 3 in 3-D
Most of the time in this movie, my eyes were hurting and headaches were coming because of the 3-D movie. For one, I hate 3-D movies. And second, this movie had such a terrible plot line that was distracted by the unneeded "humor" of the film, which consisted of a polka dotted zebra, terrible dance and song numbers, and animated animals. I swear, I hated the film, and only two drunken guys ended up laughing. I wanted to leave.

2. Spy Kids 4 in 4-D
Again, it was terribly done. The directing, the angles, I sound too judgmental about it, but I ended up sleeping the entire time.
