I've been asked by a few people to talk about my favorite films of the summer thus far. I think I'm going to have to say that coming in at Number One is LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD. Yes a lot of it was cheesy, some of the action was over-the-top, and the crime was lame, I REALLY enjoyed spending 2 hours with John McClane. He's one of the best action heroes of our generation and it's been too long since we've seen him on screen.
We had fun watching TRANSFORMERS, but the second we walked out of the theatre, we looked at each other and said "Jesus, that was dumb!"
There's a lot of holes in my summer movie schedule though and it's quite possible that any of the following could overtake DIE HARD, but I've been really busy this summer and my movie-going hasn't been as stellar as I'd like.
I haven't seen THE SIMPSONS, RATATOUILLE, RUSH HOUR 3, BOURNE, HAIRSPRAY, or STARDUST. So take that.
Oh wait, one more. I didn't mention it because it hasn't been released yet, but if you're an action fan, SHOOT 'EM UP is one of the best movies you'll see this year.
