Skyfall - 8/10 - Thought it was long and a bit weird towards the end with some obvious flaws but the first half of the movie was fantastic. Probably should get a 7/10 but it gets bonus points for being a Bond movie I actually enjoyed.
Expendables 2 - 5/10 - Here's the thing, I loved every second of watching this movie but only because me and my buddies watched it together and made fun of every single ridiculous thing that happened, which meant jokes every two seconds. Terrible movie but in all the right ways that made it awesome.
12 Monkeys - 7/10 - This movie is obviously REALLY old and is pretty dated. I'd also seen it before but that was when I was like six and really couldn't remember any of the plot. Found it on Netflix this morning and figured, what the hell. A pretty solid sci-fi, "what is reality" type movie, up there with many of the other good ones like Dark City, The Matrix, Existenz, etc. from the 90's. If you haven't seen any of those movies then I'd suggest looking backwards before watching anything new.
The Greatest Movie Ever Sold - 6/10 - Another Netflix find for me. This is a documentary by the guy who did Supersize Me. It's a pretty entertaining story about the process of acquiring ad money to fund the film that he is actually making while trying to acquire that ad money.
Spiderman - 4/10 - A really crappy reboot of an already crappy superhero franchise. Waste of time IMO.
