Super 8 was a fun summer action/adventure movie. Set in 1980 before any kind of modern technology, it's about a group of kids filming their own movie who stumble on a big government secret. It's very Spielberg-y. The deputy was exactly like Brody in
Jaws, the messy house was straight out of
Close Encounter of the Third Kind, and the adventure the kids go on is just like
ET. But it still all works. If you don't catch it in the theater then definitely put it in your rental queue.
Bad Teacher was funnier than I thought it would be. Cameron Diaz plays a teacher who shows movies in class until she finds out that the teacher with the highest state test score at the end of the year gets a bonus, which she plans to use for a boob job. Not a must-see movie, but it had me laughing out loud at a few scenes.
