As is always the case I forgot something last week. Add to my list of movies that I want to see: The Internship.

Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson are back as a couple of burnouts who get a chance to reinvent themselves with a prestigious internship at Google. Their last outing Wedding Crashers was a huge hit and one of the funnier movies to come down the pipe in a very long time. I'm stoked!

So back to reality and I'm happy to say that the addition of Shane Black as director to the Iron Man series has totally inspired this franchise.

IM2 was weak. It was all Tony Stark and not enough action.

Black brings an impressive resume to the table. His first film was Lethal Weapon. He collaborated on Lethal Weapon 2, did The Last Boy Scout and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang among others. It’s all very high impact testosterone driven action and it works.

Every May I turn into Charlie Brown. He lined up to kick the football believing Lucy wouldn't pull it away at the last moment. This time things would be different. I'm the same about the summer movie line up. I truly believe that this time Hollywood will get it right. That movies ending in 2, 3, and 6 won't be thinner than a Paris supermodel. Yep, this year’s going to be great. No seriously.

Hey wait come back...

Okay, in no particular order except that I'm running them 10 through 1, here's what I'll be watching this summer…

[I'm going to do it in the order I want to see them, not how much money I think they’ll make. All of these will be over the 100 million mark…

Guaranteed!]

I think it's interesting that I'm writing a review of the movie 42 the day after the first active professional male athlete disclosed that he was gay. There are similarities and also huge differences.

I'm sure I'll offend a lot of people who may show up on either side of these stories so let me just suggest at the outset that you send your comments and concerns to www.you'reallowedtobewrong.com.

42 is an inspirational retelling of the Jackie Robinson story. Written and directed by Brian Helgeland it's a film that is so much more than a sports picture. You can hate baseball and still like 42.

Helgeland has wisely picked relative unknown Chadwick Boseman in the titular role. He has a presence and intensity and it helps that we don't know his work.

Harrison Ford plays the visionary Branch Rickey who made it all possible. Rounding out the cast is Christopher Meloni as Leo Durocher and Nicole Beharie as Jackie’s wife Rachel. She is such an important part of the story and Beharie is strong as the true partner in what was perhaps the most difficult role in sports.

Okay, so no one is exactly hurtling or racing to Oblivion, the latest Tom Cruise action film, but it did have a decent opening weekend and was Cruise’s biggest since War of the Worlds.

I like Cruise.

He's not exactly an actor in the tradition of people who can act. He's an entertainer.

I liked him in Magnolia although really he was just playing Tom Cruise confused. I may be the only person on the planet that felt sorry for Cruise during his very public divorce from Katie Holmes. My general sense of him is that he's an entitled doofus, which might mean that I don't invite him to the cottage for boy’s weekend, but did he really need to be marginalized and portrayed as near monster like?

Well, probably but I still felt sorry for him. But I digress.

Our story so far…

His character (Jack Harper) is one of the last human beings on earth in the year 2077.

If you look at the poster you see everything that’s right and wrong with this movie. He's walking along this futuristic stylized bridge that has obviously undergone some kind of cataclysmic event, and he's wearing some weird mix of a hazmat suit for the disco. We're not sure what's going on but the bridge looks really good.

I think that's a fair review of the film.
