Being way behind on my reviews, thought I'd catch up on a bunch of movies I watched over the last couple months, while I was out of commission doing a couple of big editing projects. Trying to think up a fun quick way to write a bunch of reviews, I thought of doing them Haiku style. Probably not the most original of ideas, and may turn out to be much harder than I imagined, as I haven't written any haiku's since I was high school. Let's see how this goes.
