July Chronicles

 For some reason, mid May and June have to appealing movies for me. July is where I jump back into action and continue my quest to find the best movie of the year.

 Starting off with Larry Crowne, I was slapped in the face with Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts' boring romantic comedy. This isn't the same duo that brought us Charlie Wilson's War. If Tom Hanks wants to keep his career status, then stay away from the dwindling Roberts, who hasn't had a hit since Closer.

What's a Monte Carlo?

Unfortunately, my tolerance date for Jamie Foxx has expired, forcing me to miss out on Horrible Bosses.

If they would have brought Charlie Sheen in on Zookeeper as a camel, just saying Winning, I would have even gone after matinee.

Glad to see Harry Potter gone. Sad to see Winnie the Pooh's comeback.

Badly paced, Captain America, along with a slapped up script, only to have a lead in backstory for the supposedly big, proclaimed hit of next summer made this a very disappointing movie. I tell you want this Avengers movie had better be a masterpiece, if not, then that means I have gone through three bad movies for nothing: Iron Man 2, Thor and Captain America.

Cowboys and Aliens left me with good last feelings of this month.
