Movies I've seen last weekend

Okay, I'm not really happy about the movies I've seen and only one stood out of this mediocre group of flicks! And that's Juno, Juno is funny, witty, weird and nerdy. There will be Blood might mean that Daniel Day Lewis will get an Oscar that he deserves for so long. So those are the only movies I'm not going to give brown stars. The rest is just plain crap or a disappointment.

Why? It's a musical, that's why! I don't need a dialogs sang to me!)
