We rented Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Friday night. I didn't like it as well as I liked the first movie, but I did enjoy it. I think that they're trying a little too hard to stay literally true to the books. Some things don't translate well and others distract-- A movie needs to be more focused than a book does.
Today, we've rented The Tuxedo. It was amusing in a fluffy sort of way. I think I can see why some Jackie Chan fans disliked it given that he's not doing quite so much in the way of personal physical stunts, but... The man's not as young as he used to be, but he's still brilliant. I think it would be a shame to lose his future work just because it's not the same as his past work.
