Movies (in as few words as possible)

I recently signed up for Netflix, and started watching a bunch of random movies via the instant-watching feature. Here are some summaries of random movies I've watched in the past couple weeks (they're not necessarily recent releases, just ones I never got around to watching).

Phenomenon
John Travolta smiles too much, gets random superpowers, has a really awkward "romance" scene, turns out to not nearly be as cool as first thought.

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
Same as the other Underworld movies. Fake Kate Beckinsale. Still kind of hot.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop
As disappointing as my gut told me it would be. How is it that people were saying,"It's actually not that bad..."?

Seven Pounds
Will Smith stalks a bunch of people creepily. Turns out to be helping them all at his own expense.

Defiance
A bunch of Jews hide from Nazis in a forest. Some really horrible acting ensues. The big brother from X-Men Origins: Wolverine is there, also is impossible to take seriously. Nothing gets resolved in the movie.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Jim Carrey, Elijah Wood, Kate Winslet, Kirsten Dunst... All-star cast of actors I fucking hate. Never had a chance.

The Wrestler
Not nearly as cool as everybody made it seem. Pimple-faced white boys would love it.
