Quickie Reviews: The Princess and the Frog, Ninja Assasin, Percy Jackson

Okay, starting with The Princess and the Frog, it sucked it sucked it sucked. Disney will never be what it once was, and I guess now I have no choice but to accept it. Princess was made for kids with ADD; there was WAY too much going on in the span of 10 minutes and good lord, not every single character should have their own song! The next day I watched half of my Disney collection to get rid of the bad taste Princess left in my mouth. It was still better than the majority of kids movies that have come out in the last couple of years, but compared to the classics it just totally and completely sucks.

Rating: 4/10

Next up is Ninja Assassin, a movie starring the puppy-faced Rain, who I prefer to watch in cute Kdramas. Oh man, I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed this one! It was basically a blood bath with gallons of blood and limbs flying everywhere. Everything was CG though, so it felt more like I was watching a cartoon rather than a grossly realistic puke fest, which made it really fun. I was laughing through the entire movie at how ridiculous the plot was, then at how epically awesome the fight scenes were. Seriously, just see this movie. Also, I hope that one day an Asian can play more than either a nerd or kung fu master.

And...Percy Jackson?! Yes...I actually saw this in the theater with my mom. We were bored and it was either that or Shutter Island and we weren't in the mood for drama. Actually we were hoping it would be funny, and thankfully it was! A lot funnier than we thought it'd be, too. Surprisingly entertaining. I'm sure if anyone read the book (not me) they would be highly offended at how stupid the movie was (unless the book itself suckS just as much. HELLO TWILIGHT), but if you just wanna see a crappy B movie and laugh, I'd recommend it.

(Whoa, just looked and apparently there are 5 books? YOU MEAN 4 MORE HILARIOUS MOVIES? RIGHT ON!)
