Two and a Half Men Season 11 Episode 11: Tazed in the Lady Nuts

5 second plot: Walden goes to work for someone he fired from his own company. She seems to have a billion dollar idea. Alan goes hiking in the woods and gets a tick on his nuts. And Jenny gets serious with a girl but doesn't know how to open up.

5 second review: Walden taking orders from someone? He's got a gazillion dollars. Why would he do that? Alan talking about his private parts (and showing it) is sometimes a bit weird. Jenny is the funny one in this episode. It's about time they gave her something funny to say.

Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones is not that bad

5 second plot: When Jessy's neighbor Anna gets killed he goes out to investigate. But he finds more than he bargained for. Something 'gets stuck' on him and it's not sure he's ever going to get rid of it.

5 second review: It's pretty decent 'found footage' material. It really looks homemade. But some questions remain. Who in his right mind keeps filming when he's scared to death? And how did anyone find this footage? It's not as scary as the other Paranormal Activity films, but there is some really cool stuff in here, like people flying through the air.

The Big Bang Theory Season 7 Episode 12: The Hesitation Ramification

5 second plot: Penny gets a part in NCIS and is very excited. But while watching the show with all her friends, she finds out her part got cut. She gets sad and Leonard tries to cheer her up but only makes it worse. Then Penny proposes to him (while drunk) and the dumb fuck doesn't say yes...

5 second review: Oh man, all these happy funny shows have to have a serious and sad moment from time to time. In my opinion there is no need for it: keeping it light will also keep it interesting. I must say I'm not in the mood for another long term fight (and break-up) between Leonard and Penny.

August: Osage County is major drama

5 second plot: A family gets together after the father of the family kills himself. It only takes them a few hours after the funeral to start flipping out on each other. They realize that there was a good reason for them to live far enough apart from each other. But maybe the problem is that they are not that different after all.

5 second review: I have to give an objective opinion on this film, because I actually really hate family dramas like this one. Objectively: wow, that are some amazing performances. We've got some serious Oscar material going on here.

Lone Survivor will break your heart

5 second plot: This is the real story of four Navy Seals who are sent on a recon mission to identify a Taliban leader. When their mission gets compromised they have to run and fight to survive.

5 second review: This is quite the emotional roller coaster. It starts off light, then it gets extremely tense, next you can feel their pain as they try to survive (you can almost feel the bones cracking as they tumble down a mountain) and then it gets painfully sad. The final images of all the real men that died in this operation are heart breaking beyond imagination.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is a beauty

5 second plot: The guy from the title works for Life Magazine. He prints the pictures taken by their best photographer. The picture that was meant to go on the cover of the final issue of the magazine goes missing. Walter embarks on a journey to find it. To do so, he has to step way out of his comfort zone and into his fantasy world. But for real this time.

5 second review: This is a beautiful film. It's warm, it's got a lot of heart, it's funny, it's an adventure,... and it's got this special little edge that gives meaning to the smallest detail. Great job.

47 Ronin is one hell of a ride

5 second plot: It's the famous story of the 47 samurai from the title. Their master is dishonored by a cowardly opponent. They must have their revenge but they are up against all odds. In comes Neo to the rescue. But seriously, he vowed to honor the same master. And is in love with his daughter.

5 second review: Everything that should make sense isn't. The additions to the traditional story are crazy, the emotions are out of control and it simply doesn't make much sense,... but if you find a way to go with the flow, you might find this a hell of a ride. There are lots of flaws, but I still liked it, because I could feel what they were trying to achieve. (But to be honest: they failed miserably.)

The Wolf of Wall Street could have been a phenomenon

5 second plot: This is the true story of the rise and fall of Jordan Belfort. A guy who made millions as a stock broker, mostly by screwing people over. He could sell anything. He organised legendary parties where the main ingredients were drugs, alcohol, prostitutes and a bunch of other crazy stuff.

5 second review: A pity that the run time is 3 hours. The first hour is a whole lot of fun. They should have cranked the other two hours in half an hour. A run time of 1,5 hours with only the fun stuff: that would have been an amazing movie. Don't get me wrong: it's good. But it could have been a phenomenon.

Vendetta is a waste of time

5 second plot: The parents of an ex-military guy are brutally killed. Since the cops don't seem to be doing a lot to find the guys who did it, the son goes on a revenge quest.

5 second review: Leaving clues like a fucking mass murderer will surely get the attention of the cops... stupid prick. Some parts of the movie are pretty decent, but some parts are pure amateurism and don't make any sense. There are a lot of good movies out there nowadays. Don't waste your time with this one.

American Hustle is brilliant

5 second plot: A small scale hustler gets sucked into a huge hustle by a stupid FBI agent that wants to make a name for himself.

5 second review: This is a brilliantly crafted story with amazing performances from everyone involved. It's funny, it's got heart, soul and is perfectly complex.
