Review of The Upside of Anger (2005) by Sam M — 18 Jul 2006

[color=Yellow][i][b]Running Scared[/b][/i][/color] >> [color=Yellow]C [/color]>> Fun to watch and had moments that packed a punch. Yet this punch was phantom and there was nothing really fresh here.

[color=Lime][i][b]Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang[/b][/i][/color] >> [color=Lime]A- [/color]>> Fucking witty and hilarious as hell... because hell is hilarious, okay?? FUCK YEAH! Val Kilmer is awesome as such a witty and sarcastic bastard. Robert Downey Jr. is great and funny as usual.

[color=Lime][b][i]The Chumscrubber[/i][/b][/color] >> [color=Lime]B+ [/color]>> Similar to [b][i]Thumbsucker[/i][/b],this film deals with how drugs are at such easy access to teenagers and how parents think it will solve all their family problems. Differently, this film focuses on a neighborhood of teens and their parents, and the resulting effects after one teen commits suicide.

[color=Lime][i][b]The Upside of Anger[/b][/i][/color] >> [color=Lime]B+ [/color]>> Shows how anger and negative assumptions can change a person for better or worse.

[color=Red][i][b]Doom [/b][/i][/color]>> [color=Red]F+ [/color]>> The first person shooter scene at the end was pretty cool and brought back memories, but overall, the movie was just mindless action junk.
