Just Go with It

• 2011
• Comedy
• Romance

Everyone except Adam Sandler is funny in this. He makes himself laugh in the movie more than he'll do for you. The little girl is great, Brooklyn Decker is smoking hot to look at, Jennifer Aniston and Nicole Kidman are their usual awesome selves. Because of everyone but Sandler, this is worth a watch.

Jurassic Park: The Lost World

• 1997
• Action
• Adventure
• Sci-fi
• Thriller

This was bad for a Spielberg movie. Nothing like the first one, there's just more dinosaurs, eye candy, and bullshit.

Jurassic Park III

• 2001
• Action
• Adventure
• Sci-fi
• Thriller

It's not even about making a decent movie with this franchise anymore. It's about fitting as many dinosaurs as you can into the picture.

Jurassic Park

• 1993
• Action
• Adventure
• Sci-fi
• Thriller

This movie was so ahead of its time when it was released. Spielberg really pushed the limits of special effects for 1993. I remember my brain exploding as the jeep makes it way into Jurassic Park and out comes the Brontosaurus'.

Juno

• 2007
• Comedy
• Drama

This is a pretty funny movie about a young girl getting knocked up and becoming friends with her baby's soon-to-be adopted parents.

The Jungle Book

• 1967
• Animation
• Adventure
• Family
• Music

Doesn't it strike you as weird that Baloo (the bear) got his own afternoon cartoon? Instead of fending the jungle, Baloo is a cargo pilot. I should know, I used to watch Tailspin a lot. I mean, a lot.

Jumper

• 2008
• Action
• Adventure
• Sci-fi
• Thriller

Just an ordinary action movie with young studs and a little Sci-fi.

Jumanji

• 1995
• Adventure
• Family
• Fantasy
• Thriller

I'm glad this wasn't based off of the Candyland board game.

Julie & Julia

• 2009
• Biography
• Comedy
• Drama
• Romance

Another fun film with one of my favorite up and coming actresses, Amy Adams. I think this is her second film with the legendary Meryl Streep. Their last one together was Doubt, which was much more intense and heavy so this is a nice change-up.

Judge Dredd

• 1995
• Action
• Crime
• Sci-fi

Stallone looks like some kind of space-age, football player, carrying around a nerf gun and this sucks.

The Joy Luck Club

• 1993
• Drama
• Romance

A great movie about the lives of four Asian women and their daughters.

Journey from the Fall

• 2006
• Drama

A raw and honest look at the boat people of Vietnam and how that war affected the country’s aftermath. The first half is good but the second half doesn’t live up. However, this is far better than Oliver Stone’s big budget Heaven & Earth.

Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple

• 2006
• Documentary
• History

This is a great documentary on a very disturbing subject. The Jonestown massacre, lead by an insane cult leader named Jim Jones. He (indirectly) started the "drink the kool-aid" catchphrase.

Jonah Hex

• 2010
• Action
• Drama
• Thriller
• Western

John Malkovich plays John Malkovich (again). Megan Fox plays a whore, which she surprisingly fails at. This is a crappy mish-mash of fantasy and Western with a bunch of edgy guitar rifts. Poop everywhere in this film.

Johnny Mnemonic

• 1995
• Action
• Sci-fi
• Thriller

I didn't think this was that bad for 1995. Sure, it's not as deep as people expected it to be but it's a decent flick.

John Carter

• 2012
• Action
• Adventure
• Fantasy
• Sci-fi

I definitely got my nerd fix with all of the incredible CG. I'm just glad that it's "John Carter of Mars," rather than Earth. Stay there, John. I've had enough of you, thanks.

PS: Good job, Disney. You just figured out how to make a lot of blood suitable for PG-13 by replacing it with ink.

Joe Versus the Volcano

• 1990
• Comedy
• Romance

Too bad the volcano lost.

Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work

• 2010
• Documentary
• Biography
• Comedy

Dear Joan Rivers, I love you. I do. I don't think that your lack of popularity has anything to do with your looks or your age. I truly believe it has to do with your on-going pity party, and how your productions are always about you.

You say that you're a serious actor, then why don't you try auditioning for roles rather than making little plays revolving around your life. Your jokes are still good, your attitude still rocks, but I genuinely think people are just tired of the same story that's now older than you are.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi

• 2012
• Documentary

This film is more about the Japanese way of culture, determination, and honor – rather than sushi. The same can be said about almost every other facet of Japan’s workforce. That aside, I’m dying to find out what obsessive and meticulously-pampered sushi tastes like. I hope I can one of these days. Maybe when I sell a kidney to tour Japan.

Jingle All the Way

• 1996
• Action
• Family
• Adventure
• Comedy

Haha, Arnold made himself retarded.

JFK

• 1991
• Biography
• Crime
• Drama
• History
• Mystery
• Thriller

I really did not like this movie and I think most of Oliver Stone's "evidence" is not researched well enough or just flat-out false.

Jesus Camp

• 2006
• Documentary
• Drama

These poor kids are being brainwashed to hell and back (pun intended). I know the documentary always tries to be un-biased and it succeeds in this movie but I can't help but to see so much wrongness, vileness, and unhealthy fanaticism in this. I could go on for days about this but I won't. Definitely worth the watch if you're into this sort of stuff.

Jerry Maguire

• 1996
• Comedy
• Drama
• Romance
• Sport

Not going to say that famous catchphrase. Great film and cutest little kid actor, ever.

Jennifer's Body

• 2009
• Comedy
• Horror

Jennifer's Body is turned into a demon that eats other students. The more she eats to stay strong, the weaker the script gets.

Jeff, Who Lives at Home

• 2012
• Comedy

Here’s a quirky Indie comedy so don’t expect to laugh your lungs out. But, you will laugh. Even if there was actually no comedy, this could still work. This can stand alone as a drama all the way through and that’s what makes Jeff, Who Lives at Home good.

Jeepers Creepers

• 2001
• Drama
• Horror
• Mystery
• Thriller

Oh boy, this movie. I went to see this in theaters without knowing one thing about it. I thought the name was dumb but maybe that was just a cover-up. At the beginning I was actually on the edge of my seat. It was extremely frightening and the ambiance was dreadful. Everything went downhill in a 90-degree angle as soon as the monster was exposed to us. One of the worst American horror monsters ever created.

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

• 2001
• Adventure
• Comedy

A lot of laughs in this. "You're a clown shoe."

Jaws

• 1975
• Thriller

Dah-dun. Dah-dun. Dah-dun. Dah-dun. Dah-dun. Dah-dun.

Jason's Lyric

• 1994
• Crime
• Drama

I've seen this movie twice, it's hard to pinpoint why I liked it so much when I was younger but I did. It's another story about two brothers leading different paths. One wants to get out of the ghetto and do good for himself while the other wants to rob it.

Jason X

• 2001
• Horror
• Sci-fi

Hahaha, Jason goes into space, turns into some super robot, and then destroys the spaceship. What will they think of next!

Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday

• 1993
• Horror
• Thriller

Too bad he came back.

Jarhead

• 2005
• Biography
• Drama
• War

I thought this was great. It took a different approach on the soldiers in Iraq. Instead of front-line fire fights, it concentrates on a platoon that wasn't getting much action. This is more of a drama than a war movie, but a good one. What else would you expect from Sam Mendes.

James and the Giant Peach

• 1996
• Animation
• Adventure
• Family
• Fantasy
• Music

This is the claymation remake of the classic children's story, all done in Tim Burton's style. Pretty cool!

Jade

• 1995
• Action
• Crime
• Thriller
• Drama

This is a very sexually-charged movie, doused in a cold-blooded murder and shrouded in all sorts of mysteries. Nothing spectacular post-2000.

Jacob's Ladder

• 1990
• Drama
• Horror
• Mystery
• Thriller

Hi, welcome to weird town.

Jackie Brown

• 1997
• Crime
• Thriller

This movie has sass all over it.

Jackass: The Movie

• 2002
• Action
• Comedy

Call me morbid but I keep thinking that someone is going to die in one of these Jackass films.

The Jackal

• 1997
• Action
• Adventure
• Crime
• Thriller

This action movie was not that exciting but if you want to see Jack Black get annihilated by a chain gun, just fast forward to that.

Jack

• 1996
• Comedy
• Drama

Robin Williams plays a boy with a disorder that makes him age really, really fast. It's all fun and games until the cruel reality kicks in and he has to die young. Aw.

J. Edgar

• 2011
• Biography
• Crime
• Drama

There's something un-captivating here unlike Clint Eastwood's other films. DiCaprio puts on a great performance, which I think he deserves more nominations for, but I can't say the same for the entirety of the film. It just seems like Eastwood didn't put as much attention into this one as he usually does.
