Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

2/4 stars

Way too fast paced, the script seemed to have no attention span. You know the little "previously" segment on the front of a TV show? This is the only movie I've ever seen that reminded me of watching one of those for two hours, a result of trying to cram too much into too short a time.

Love Actually

4/4 stars

My very favorite romantic comedy. The cast is amazing, the writing is alternatingly hilarious and subtle, and the use of music is inspired. The real innovation of this movie is to apply the "hyperlink" style of film to a new genre that puts it to good use.
