Movies of the Month: May 2009

Hello, Mellow Filmmaker here. I like many people, saw a lot of films last month so this might be an extensive article. It is shortened though because I included Wolverine in the last one. Some of these movies were good, some were bad, some were just okay. Without further preparation, Movie of the Month: May 2009.

It had good character development, a decent plot, and it just an exciting film. There isn’t much wrong with it and I might be willing to see it a second time. Does this mean that I will become a Star Trek fan because of this. No.

4 1/2 out of 5 Stars.

Terminator Salvation poster Terminator Salvation: This actually share some of the problems that the Wolverine movie had. They both had horrible character development, cliché plots, and a stereotypical African American who didn’t have any personality outside of being black. I can’t decide which film was worse, but the important thing is that they both suck.

2 out of 5 Stars.

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian Night at the Museum: Battle at the Smithsonian: This was an adequate film. The humor was okay, the story was okay, and the food was okay [This film is so adequate that it made my food adequate(Wait I already did a joke like this)]. The main faults of this film is the ending and the whole trying to make Ben Stiller a bad ass campaign. But it was still an enjoyable film.

Up is one of Pixar’s best. It has round characters, a creative plot, and a well put together story. The only problems I had with this film is that there’s a time cop out, and Pixar has forgotten to give us a short, but the film is just so great that I’m willing to overlook those and say that Up is definite must watch.

Possible Best List Nominees: Star Trek & Up

Possible Worst List Nominees: Terminator Salvation and Maybe Night at the Museum 2

Overall I had a good movie month. I did see some crap, but you have to be really lucky to not.
