Salt

The first part of this movie was simply OK, some decent action and a good story. The last third was very good, plot twists and a good resolution to the story. Overall, it was pretty enjoyable and Angelina proved that she's still more than capable of still doing a good action flick. If you like spy action/thrillers, it's a MUCH better option than Knight and Day.

Inception

Once in a while, you see a movie that you wish wouldn't stop. This is one of those. Great story, great acting, great effects, what more do you want? It's kind of a blend of mystery, suspense, action, and sci-fi. Add in a great ending, and you have one of the most mind blowing movies in years.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice

I know, most of the critics didn't like this movie. I know it didn't do particularly well at the box office, but that doesn't change the fact that I really liked this movie. Decent story, funny, exciting, some really good actors, what more do you want.

Predators

Yes, it's cheesy and yes, it's fairly predictable. That being said, I still liked this movie. I've liked all the Predator movies. They're fun, action packed, and enjoyable. If you liked the others, you'll probably like this one.

The Last Airbender

I actually kinda liked this movie. I never watched the show on TV, so I didn't know quite what to expect, but anytime you can have a hybrid of action, fantasy, and kung-fu, I'm in. If you're expecting an outcome in this movie, forget it, it's set up for several sequels to finish off the story. The only complaint I'd have is the 3D effects were average at best.

Knight and Day

I heard some good things about this movie, and I heard some bad things as well. The bad things are closer to the truth. Not much chemistry between Cameron and Tom, a bland story, and not much for excitement in the action scenes. Didn't seem like a movie on it's own, but rather an unadvertised clone of Mission Impossible.

Grown Ups

I was worried about how they were going to let these 5 funny guys share the spotlight, jokes, etc. They managed to do a pretty good job. The movie is actually funnier than I expected it to be. A decent choice for a date movie or something to take teen aged kids to.
