CAPTAIN AMERICA - not bad. better than expected. expected absolute crap. retarded character concept to begin with. did as well as could be expected. costume is hopeless.
COWBOYS & ALIENS - daniel craig's gunslinger is excellent. harrison ford's ornery cattle kingpin is up to snuff. the alien elements are not well integrated, and I had the feeling that every action sequence against them was tweaked like the flavor of the month comic book villain to suit the abilities of the human enemy that they faced. that made for incoherence. say this for the Predator and Alien franchises: they don't nerf their characters in order to give humans a shot at them on a scene by scene basis.
STUPID, CRAZY, LOVE. - solid flick. doesn't rewrite the genre or inject any particularly new ideas on the topic. but it's executed well, and the cast is very good.
Life ducks, and you sigh.
