Cine-Verse! Love and Other Witch Bureaus

As I try to settle on the most enjoyable way to review films for my blog I've decided on a more creative method: Poetry!

Settle down, settle down! So the basics are the same because I'm still writing about a handful of movies I watched recently for the first time. But this time it's gonna rhyme, dog. Enjoy.

Super 8 (2011)

This is skillful filmmaking; nostalgic and new,
Filled with monsters and mayhem, and mystery too.
The thing that impressed me, 'cause the order was tall,
Was the group of kid actors who don't suck at all






Harry Brown (2009)

An old quiet man loses all he holds dear,
And decides that he's through with living in fear.
The gangs on the street will pay for his pain,
For tonight vengeance goes by the name Michael Caine.






Season of the Witch (2011)

A crusade/buddy film about transporting a witch,
But this witch is a demon, now ain't that a bitch?
Bad lines, lousy fights, two actors who don't care,
And a plot that's thinner than Nic Cage's hair.






Midnight in Paris (2011)

An engaged man in Paris finds his life less sublime,
Goes walking at midnight and travels through time.
He finds the nights brighter, and filled with such folly
With Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Picasso, and Dali.






The Adjustment Bureau (2011)

A ballerina falls for a politician who can be trusted
But it seems that the MAN wants their future adjusted.
Magic doors, magic hats, and men without guns.
Look out, Matt Damon! Grab the fedora and run!






No Strings Attached (2011)

The girl from Black Swan, and the guy who says "dude".
A whole lotta bonin', and not that much nude.
A relationship forms and their lives feel complete
More so than just humping like rabbits in heat.






Love and Other Drugs (2010)

Sex without commitment that leads to true love.
It's the same damn story as the movie above.
It's like No Strings Attached with a bonus of tits,
Or some early version of Friends With Benefits.
