Disappointing movie season

I have not been able to see many of the movies that came out this summer in the theater. Instead I waited until I was recovering from having my wisdom teeth pulled and rented many of them. Almost all of them were not great which was disappointing as I was hoping they would be okay or at least mildly amusing.

Some disappointments included:
Death at a Funeral - The original is hilarious!! The American remake was too rushed and seemed forced.

Date Night - I don't even remember most of the movie but that could have been because of all the percocet I was taking.

The Losers - good action & the dialogue was snappy but it was predictable and the story was not great.

Kick Ass - While insanely creative and original the story got lost trying to make fun of the super hero & violent film genre which was sad because a statement of some sort was forming but it fizzled.

Films that looked too pitiful to rent included: Killers, Hottub Time Machine, MacGruber, & CopOut.

I also watched the Wolfman which was decent I just can't get into the time period in which the story is set.

Oh well...hopefully there are better movies coming out later this year.
