Tonight I was introduced to the movie Bewitched (the newer one). Aside from a few parts that were overdone, I found it amusing and.. cute. Though I definitely missed references/jokes/anything at all that came from the T.V. show, something I never did see the reruns of despite having heard people talk about it often. It's a fun light movie for wasting an evening when you don't want to think.
Much, much better that a movie I found myself watching a week or two ago - My Super Ex-Girlfriend. None of us had looked too closely at different reviews to determine the actual content of the movie, which turns out to have been something I don't think anyone under 40 should be allowed to see. Nor anyone over 40. Nor, for that matter, anyone who happens to be just at 40 instead of on either side. It could have been funny, had every other line been written differently and a couple entire scenes been cut out or redone; as is, it seems more like some poor teenager's fantasy-turned-nightmare with no thought for little things like decency and actual humor. For anyone looking for a movie to see, go watch Bewitched... and we'll all just try to forget that this movie was ever created.

Hmm, I could have warned you about the Super-Ex movie. I also was duped into thinking that it would be funny, especially because I love superhero movies. Even the special effects were really lame.
I thought the whole character of the villain was funny and decently well thought out. It is always a bad sign the most interesting fellow in a superhero flick is the villain. Shows a critical loss of thought, imagination, emotion, and any other virtue, human or divine.
