I like to kick off my summer months with some truly silly entertainment. For starters, eye candy: Zac Efron, Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, and Chris Pine. While I am somewhat embarrassed to say I saw these films, I counter with the hours upon hours I spent at Tribeca Film Festival watching downers like Yodok Stories (documentary about Korean concentration camps). Surely my culture quota and personal integrity has been recouped and redeemed.
17 Again: three stars... I love a good dance sequence and Matthew Perry's comedic timing is actually underrated
Wolverine: one star...almost unwatchable
Star Trek: two, for kindness, this should have been a tv movie...a reunion special of some extraordinary Angels In America HBO scale, but instead it was repackaged as a summer blockbuster. I am no Trekkie, but I was not fooled.
