1. Casablanca - Had never seen it and my wife and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Holds up really well despite the age. 7/10
2. Amelie - Been told so many times to watch this movie by many different types of people. Thought it was garbage and almost turned it off several times. The first minute I found it cute and funny and then I found it horrible and weird. Maybe the artsy types would like this a lot more. My wife is usually into those types a lot more and she hated it as well. 2/10
3.Brave - Watched this with my kids for our popcorn and smoothie night ritual and we all thought it was a good, fun movie. Scary at parts for the little ones but manageable. 8/10
4. Mongol - Meh Netflix movie that fell flat for someone who enjoys history. Still enjoyed it for what it was but it wasn't great. 5/10
5. Super 8 - Reminded me of a cross between ET and Goonies and because that was what I expected (and not some really deep and fantastic sci-fi blow your mind movie) it hit the sweet spot there. 7/10
