The Debt

This is a must see!  I loved it.  It was very suspenseful.  There is violence, but not too much.  It's the story of three secret agents who tracked down a Nazi war criminal in 1966.  The setting is 1997 and a book has just been released about their experience, when two of them find out their partner has just committed suicide.  They then flash back to 1966 to show us how the events unfolded, and some twists are revealed.  Acting is fantastic and the story is gripping.  I give it 3 1/2 stars out of 4.  Go see it!

Transformers: Dark of The Moon

In a word this movie is "big"; big explosions, big "monsters", big fights, big lips, etc.  It's a must see, because of the robots and affects.  This one starts off with Sam lamenting that most people aren't aware that he saved their world, not once but twice!  And what does he have to show for it?  There's comic relief when his parents visit, love that part, especially the matching warm up outfits.  I also liked how they revisited history and the first moonwalk.  The battles are spectacular, especially the foot work.  It does make one have to suspend reality a bit, I mean come on, you can't run around like that in those high heels!  I give it a 3.5.  Biggest movie of the summer, so far anyway.

Super 8

Great movie, makes me think of Goonies.  It's about some kids making a movie and capturing a unbelievable train wreck.  The train was carrying some top secret government cargo, that escapes after the wreck and is unleashed into the small town.  But the government won't own up to it.  There are some elements of ET here also.  I loved it.  The kid actors are great, the lead kid is a cutie.  The train wreck is amazing.  The "thing" that escapes is ok, and the ending could be better (my nephew Dustin "hated" it, but I think he had really high expectations, that I didn't).  There's some humor thrown into a lot of intense scenes.  I say it's a must see and give it 3.5 out of 4 stars.  Almost forgot, wait until the credits, they show the kids finished film.
