The Accidental Husband Sweet sappy and adorable. Colin is lovely with his suits and his chivalry and his Britishness. The movie is contrived and over worked with an odd Bollywood tribute in the center. If you like Uma Thurman , Jeffery Dean Morgan, or Colin Firth then it is at least worth a sick day in bed or a giggle with girlfriends
Rating: 8. Would Watch again by myself
Scruff- I doubt JDM would be in a movie w/o scruff. Colin - nice and smooth *sigh*
Star Trek Okay- I sold my soul and attended the free screening that was for SIFF members only- so it was full but not oppressively so. (there were a few seats here and there.) It was not horrible and I did jump a few time. I even grabbed NBF's hand once, lucky he is use to that from me. I was surprised to see Jennifer Morrison in a small roll. Simon Pegg as Scotty was awesome casting. I thought that the story telling was clunky and a bit of a mess. McCoy's (Karl Urban) dialog made me cringe every time he showed up. I wanted to blame the actor (he does seem out of place at times), but I am going to blame the script writer. (They seemed to add "Dammit Jim" when every they could - even if it really did not fit the scene). They worked really hard to get some of the catch phrases in, and a few times I cringed, and the audience laughed. There are some overly contrived twists to get to the ending that sets up a sequel, but I will not spoil them.

I'm looking forward to the Star Trek movie, even if it doesn't turn out to be [deep breath] the-greatest-movie-of-the-year-oh-my-god-you-have-to-see-it-like-right-now! Whew!

Star Trek is not horrible, I have seen way worse movies, but it is respectable and a nice reboot of the series. I would be interested to know what true Trek fans feel about it. I get the feeling that it will be a HUGE movie when it is finally released on May 8th.

I would be interested to know what true Trek fans feel about it. [raises hand] I was teethed on Trek. I grew up having long philosophical discussions about different Alien cultures from Trek with my parents... Yeah, I'm a Trekker. :)
So, I'll probably be one of the people ranting/raving about the movie after it comes out.
