Total Recall remake - 7
Ted - 8.75
The Watch - 7 ("I will shove an entire egg inside your ass, and I'll watch it hatch." paraphrasing)
Area 407 - 0.2 Absolutely, beyond a shadow of a doubt the worst movie I watched in 2012. Jittery picture from the 'found footage' of a teenager with a video camera, spates of nothing but incoherent yelling/screaming for minutes and minutes on end, horrendous dialogue, entirely predictable. Stink Factor of
nine.
In The Electric Mist - 7 Slow. Plot shortcuts. Plot elements unexplained. But...It has a very good cast, led by Tommy Lee Jones. Takes place today (modern times), but at one point TLJ (whose character is a recovering alcoholic) is sitting on a cabin porch talking to a man about not being able to tell the difference anymore between what's real and what ain't . The man is
John Bell Hood, played by Levon Helm. Go figure.
