Yeah, they're completely different. Think along the lines of Rosemary's Baby. Actually, both books were written by the same author.

Anyway, highly recommended. It's a bonified horror movie.

I know; the funny thing is, I would consider The Jungle Book to be one of the only perfect Disney movies.

Watched Superbad.
Started out really funny, I thought, but the last third of the movie just dragged IMO. It was fun, but I wouldn't buy it.

I just expected a movie about something as rare as the russian mafia to be a little more like The Godfather. But instead i got to see a rather simple story about some lady getting "kind" of involved with a russian upcoming gangster because of a baby... Disappointing, dull in parts and never exciting.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End - 3/10

What a mess. This movie was way too long, and very boring. Not even CGI and Depp could save this disaster.
