I grade movies more in a "cagagory" mind set. I don't expect to see an epic adventure movie and I graded it as a "Horror" Movie, and IMO there hasn't been a better horror remake than A Nightmare on Elm Street.
Speaking of Epic Adventure
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (A) I just watched this with my dad, and its was really well played! I've read mixed stuff about this flick.. so I was skeptical about seeing it in theaters, but what better to do on the weekend.. My hats off to the filmmakers who could have easily squeezed this movie into 2 Hour and a Half long movies with the second film being a bore and simply being a "Closure" to the story.. instead they made it into one movie thats about 2 hours. Special Effects were good, I enjoyed the characters, and Like mentionied above this movie ended with closure. Long in the middle sort of.. but there is a lot of story they gotta tell and at least they did it in one movie. I recommend anyone that has Brothers to go watch this with them, there is a really heartfelt underlying message by the end.

I completely disagree with TheRaider on this.
You must be very easily spooked or scared. I sat through the whole movie, did NOT jump or get spooked once. I didn't even go "that's nasty/gory". They ruined this movie, it was just awful.
Prince of Persia : Sands of Time - Absolutely GREAT! Really, really, really good. This is probably one of the best game-to-big screen adaptations so far!
Shrek 4 - They save the best for last... well, I was wrong... It's good, on par with the rest, but not the way to end the Shrek series.
Ironman 2 - 7.5/10 - not great, good. Was expecting a lot more from it, maybe had too high of expectations.
Shutter Island - 8/10 - Really good movie, a lot of twists, made me think a lot.
Invictus - 8/10 - Pretty good, uplifting, true story. Definitely worth seeing, Morgan Freeman, enough said.
Legion - 7.5/10 - I liked it, worth the watch for sure.
Edge of Darkness - 9/10 - Mel was great in this movie, good story and just a great all around movie.
Loud sounds played Loud startle anyone. Maybe my ears are more sensative than yours, but plenty of Jumps in this movie if you aren't trying to act hard, (Or if you aren't deaf) Freddy's never been gory, Gorror Movies became popular with Saw / Hostle no 80's horror movies. Even the Origianl Last house on the left seems tame now cause movies didn't get gory till recnetly.
Prince of Persia - 8/10 - I have to agree with steer on this one. Absolutely great movie. My fiance and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Bring Him to Greek - Hilarious. Aldous Snow is the main character, which is also the same character from Forgetting Sara Marshall. Even has a little cameo with her in it. If you want to laugh, go see the movie. A +
AVATAR - better than I was expecting. a really good watch

A-Team - It's a good action film. It's based off of the tv show, so don't compare it to the show itself. It's a modern day version, and is pretty darn good.
