The summer is sizzling with exciting blockbusters! Of course Iron Man was wonderful, but it seems week after week another spectacular movie comes out. I even enjoyed Speed Racer, which didn't do to well at the box office, but the movie itself was something new, stylistic, and fast as hell.

The Chronicles of Narnia were as epic, and momentous as ever. Tons of battles, at least three, and a giant, hungry, water Jesus at the end to save the day.

Then Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull came out. It harkened back to the classic adventure films of the 80's, the style was fun and the action didn't let up. The cast was witty, and Harrison Ford was as charming as ever.

I should also mention some of the smaller summer movies which have really been tickling my indy bone. Fall is a tale of a little girl learning about the wonders and perils of the world from an injured stuntman. It was exotic, a visual feast. And randomly, the director of the film was at the screening I went to. Real nice guy, The Fall was his labor of love.

Also, War Inc. was thoroughly enjoyable. Broad, yet pointed, very good political satire. And John Cusack never disappoints. But the real blossom of this movie was Hillary Duff, who is funny and sexy at the same time, a hard thing to do.

Finally, the real hero of the summer is the Damage Control Master Formula. It's a multivitamin. Scratch that. It's the best multivitamin. It'll help you with those washboard abs you've been working on to get ready for the beach.
