Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps - It's a mix bag of a a film. A mildly entertaining sequel. What i liked about the film is that it does work as it's own film as much as it does as a sequel. While the first film was about the greed and manipulation of the Wall Street life style, this film is more about trying to stay alive and keep your dignity during a financial crisis. It has the normal Oliver Stone flair, which can get repetitive and annoying. Shia LeBeouf is OK as Jacob Moore, a young hot shot who is trying to balance a relationship and trying to get ahead in his career. Michael Douglass doesn't miss a beat with the character that made him an Icon. Josh Brolin is also very good. The film is too long and doesn't hold interest during the last hour. I say rent this one on video.

Buried. - This is a film about a trucker working in Iraq who is attacked and buried alive. And the film solely takes place inside the coffin for the whole 90 minutes. It doesn't once go above ground during the film. Ryan Reynolds stars as the Trucker. On paper, this film sounds horrible. There is no way this film should work but it does. It works so well that it's one of the best thrillers of the year. Director Rodrigo Cortes and screenwriter Chris Sparling create a tense thriller that doesn't let you go during the 90 minutes you are stuck in the coffin with Ryan Reynolds. The film does create a claustrophobic atmosphere but it never goes to far to make you feel suffocated. Ryan Reynolds has little room to work with but he is excellent as the man stuck in the coffin. It's a wonderful showcase for his talents. Please check this one out!
