I really, really liked Shutter Island. I was completely engrossed throughout the film and actually turned down walking into Cop Out for free because I was psychologically and mentally not ready for another film. This better not become commonplace.
Shutter Island follows Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Ruffalo, two US Marshall's investigating "Shutter Island", a mental facility off the coast from Bowston. I emphasize the "W" instead of "R" because you get some solid south accents to enjoy. DiCaprio works the hardest to uncover the secrets of the island, as well as some clues to his own personal tragedy. I would highly recommend this if you enjoy thinking movies, as I do. Superb acting in all facets of the movie really make the whole thing work for me. Bit roles are filled with solid actors like the guy who played Casey Jones in Ninja Turtles and Jackie Earle Hayle, the guy who is going to be Freddy Krueger. If you don't like thinking, don't see it or you'll just piss everyone else off.
Bottom line: 8.8 out of 10.
Archer is a series that intentionally tries to just piss everyone off and does a hilarious job of it. Archer is a sexist, racist, idiot of a secret agent who is simply hilarious. The situations they put him in to fail are hilarious and if you aren't offended easily, I can't suggest the show enough. The first 7 episodes are on-demand.
The sucker punch today in women's basketball highlights why women's sports aren't as entertaining as men's. She absolutely sucker-punched the other woman who was not looking and failed to even knock her to the ground. If a men's player pulled that move the other person would be dead, or receiving serious facial reconstructive surgery while in some sort of coma. Just not very entertaining, even at the failures.
a Jose Canseco bat? Tell me, you didn't pay money for this.
