GREEN LANTERN: WHOSE BRIGHT IDEA WAS IT TO MAKE MARK STRONG LOOK UGLY?

Okay, we were dragged to see “The Green Lantern” and begrudgingly gave it a chance because we like Ryan Reynolds. It turns out we like Ryan as a real person, not as a superhero. Our main gripe is about costar Mark Strong whom we found extremely appealing in previous films like RocknRolla and Sherlock Holmes. He’s not only hot looking but has a very sexy voice. So why did the makers of Green Lantern paint him up to look like a freaky ghoul? If Scarlett Johanssen was in the movie you can bet they wouldn’t have disguised HER good looks. These movies made BY men FOR men can really be a turn-off for women.

GUY RITCHIE TURNED MILD-MANNERED SHERLOCK HOLMES INTO A SUPERSLEUTH

Sherlock Holmes’ nemesis Mark Strong is the hottest villain in any movie we can remember. If you think you know what Guy Ritchie’s “Sherlock Holmes” is going to be like, you’re probably wrong. Guy has turned Holmes (Robert Downey Jr) into a Superhero! The sets and costumes are gorgeous and appropriate, but this is an ACTION MOVIE, not unlike Batman. Explosions, crashes, and life threatening situations abound with special effects – aimed at the teenage boy mentality. We prefer a more cerebral Holmes with an intricate plot and clues, but this might be right up your alley.
