Planet Terror

Hehe. This movie was pretty awesome. It had Sayid! and Federico! And the dude from No country for old men, wish he'd been in the movie more. I know it's all part of the joke of the missing reel, but i want to know what El Wray said to the sherif to get a gun...

I love my "taking Vegas" movies, but something was off about this one.  Maybe it was all the 360 rotations and super close ups on the cards.  The story was based a true story, but the ending was so FAKE.  But it was an ok movie overall.

Oh yeah that Asian kid from Disturbia was so funny.  Definitely the highlight of the movie.

Chay, you mean Planet Terror right. Death Proof is about Stunt Man Mike taking out chicks in his Stunt car.

Team America: World Police

I came across this accidentally on TV last spring - on Comedy Central I believe - when I was in a really bad mood once; I'm sure if I had been in a better mood it would have been even funnier than it was. As it is I did find it pretty hilarious; the whole puppet concept was brilliant, and some parts had me almost crying with laughter. I actually found the song fairly annoying, but most of the rest was great, from what I can remember.

And the dude from No Country for Old Men is Josh Brolin, spot him as a youngin' in The Goonies too, he'll also play the new Terminator and George Dubya Bush!

[Reply #606 on:]

Now here's a blast from the past!!  Remember the Highlander tv series?  They came out with a new movie, HIGHLANDER- The Source.  This really tied up all the loose ends from the show.  It was real nice to see all those familar faces again!! 

Adrian Paul still looks young enough to look like an non- aging/ Immortal Highlander.  And I was glad that they brought back that middle age fellow who played his "Watcher." Loose ends... all tied up!! 

And when theck did they come out with a HIGHLANDER 2 with Sean Connery in it??  They had that one as a preview of a DVD coming out remastered and like a collectors addition.  I gots to go finds me a copy of HIGHLANDER 2!! ASAP!!  STAT!!  ... Oh, God, doctor, I think we're losing'em!!_________________ Flatline________ DANG!!

~FazeShift~, I won't even review that one.  I turned it off twenty-five minutes after I put it into the dvd player!!  That's twenty-five minutes of my life I'll never get back... oh, well.  And I am such a big fan of two of the actors.  The serial killer was so boring and pissy- not very dynamic for someone with his own, unique "M.O."  Modus operandi.

Highlander 2 was god awful sci fi banished to the $1 shit bin piece of crap.

And I did not care for the highlander series or the movie that was a waste of both my time and pleasure.

New Terminator?  More like Dubya tee eff!

And for the record, Team America is perhaps the greatest action movie and one of the best musicals ever made, and through its even-handed bashing manages to be remarkably patriotic.  God, I love it.

In The Name Of The King: A Dungeon Siege Tale

Uwe Boll should stop making movies. Please.
I still can't quite understand how a farmer would know all these kick ass fluid like kung foo moves, and with all the slashing and slicing, the lack of blood and open wounds is confounding.

And I'm not that sure how a film like this could have one of the worst musical scores in movie history. I felt embarrassed having to sit there and listen to it, I thought people might think I had something to do with how bad it was or something.

The action was something new though. Every action scene with a major character had to be doing something really cool, like, flipping through the air and slicing five baddies with a sword or flipping over some baddies and stabbing them in the back, lots of flipping.

And someone please explain to me about the Ninjas! WTF!

D out of 10. Its that stupid.

Point Break

The best film about surfing bank-robbers ever made:

It is hard to believe that this film is over fifteen years old now. The story is still fairly exciting without ever taking itself too seriously.

In most action films the action is mostly the hero chasing and fighting with the bad guys, while there is plenty of that in Point Break there is also plenty of action where characters are just having fun surfing and skydiving which I found more enjoyable than the chasing and fighting. Anybody who has seen "Hot Fuzz" will have a laugh at the "shooting in the air" scene.

The plot concerns two FBI agents played by Keanu Reeves and Gary Busey who are hunting a group of bank robbers who's identity is unknown but who Busey believes are surfers who rob banks to fund their lifestyle. Reeves goes under cover learning how to surf so he can get in with surfers.

I Am Legend

A big pile of dog shit! Why was the power still on in New York? Also why was the guy hunting deer the first 10 mins of the movie? When he has a bunch of food at home! I didn't even want to watch the last 20 or so mins of the movie after he finds that chick with the kid.

Best part was Will Smith's naked man boobs.

D-

[Reply #618 on:]

If you loved Will smith's "man boobs..."  Go check out the series: OZ.  There is a varying amount of everything manly from "man boobs" to er, I can't say... there is way much man stuff in this series!  But if you are under aged, wait till you get older.  It's a lot of crude, adult content and NEKKIDNESS.  Bockbuster video store had most of the series and three out of four of my family are fans of the show.  So, I got to put a little aside till I can afford to buy the series from Amazon or eBay.

edit-  How does Bolckbuster just carry part of a series?  Really!  I'm just left hanging.  Wondering WTF!  The Blockbuster manger should be ground into Torgo Executive Powder!  It's just cruel, man.  Just cruel to not order the whole flipping series for the customers' pleasure.  Waaaa...      You know what?


I got a few other things on the list before I can even THINK of procuring OZ!  A cool cat tree for forty bucks at Costco before they are all gone( when Costco has a supply of something, it may be only seasonal or when it's gone, you'll never see it, anywhere, ever again).  The same size one is about one hundred and forty at Petsmart! 

And I gots ta get Sunrise Earth when it comes out with its new DVD in about June.  Then, I can get around to thinking about good ole' OZ.  Ah, well, I plan to be around for quite a few more years of my life... so, it's a waiting game full of patience and longing. Hrumph...

I got done watching Sweeny Todd the Demon Barber of Fleet Street last night.  It was gruesome.  There is no remnant of Pirates of the Carribeanand the loveable cad, Jack Sparrow present in this production.  There are massive amounts of blood, slashing razor scenes, more blood and a touch of cannibalism thrown in for good measeure.  The whole product was very dark and depressing.  Thay sing all the way through the movie.  It was a modern day opera!  I dug it.  It was a real work of art!  Did I say I loved it?  It almost made me puke once or twice.  That could also be the affects of my current illness, but still, the gruesomeness is immense!  I even got up this morn and downed some more Niqil, started eating breakfast and thought, "Do I dare watch this with food going in my mouth?"  I decided I could and was surprised that the gag factor on my part had gone away for the second viewing of this horrific, gruesome, mesmerizing,bloody, opera(without the, you know, opera in it) gem of a movie.  Don't watch it unless you are old.  It could damage your psychy for life if you are not old enough to appreciate it as entertainment value only.   

[Reply #624 on:]

My favourite bit is when the slashed-throat bodies drop head-first onto the stone floor with a hideous crack of shattered skull and broken spine. Adding injury to injury, as it were.

[Reply #625 on:]

He almost wiped out his family in one fell swoop... almost.  Gruesome, bloody, beautiful horror film, it is.  He appeared like a bouquet of roses at the last scene of the movie, leaning over as he was.  I can't believe how artistic it was.  It is still hitting me.  I'm going to watch it again after the premier of Battle Star Galactica season four is over on SciFi channel!  I can't wait to watch Sweeny again.  I have some major questions that I know I have to get answeres to.  Just don't know the questions clearly till I get to watching the movie later.  Then I'll simultaneously have the answers when I descover the questions.  Anyhow, that is a circle of nothing that only I will understand.  No worries.

edit-  I guess this story is a testament to what greed, avarice, and hate can do to people.  How it mucks everything to hell and beyond redemption!

Heh, that Sweeny; loved his daughter so much he forgot she existed. Really conveyed that old message about how when you are given the choice of either raising a child, or slashing people's throats - you slash the throats.

Thank gosh for the "boyfriend" fellow!  He is her salvation.  And Future.

edit-  Everything that Sweeney loved and valued was literally robbed from him becauses a rich fool wanted to pick his lovely wife flower.  All that was left for Sweeney was hate and revenge.  It can color the perception beyond one's control, as it were.  And, once the wheels of revenge are put in motion, it is a beast that needs to be fed.  And the seeker of said revenge can get chewed up in the process.  Literally speaking... one can lose their soul to revenge.  Never quite the good deal one is looking forward to achieving!

I did get the sarcasm. In fact it was freakin obvious. I just like to play along.

Now...I would review Airplane the movie if I could find the effin DVD somewhere in my house.

Even though I've seen it a million times, I want to watch it again.

F- To me because I can't find it!

Yesterday before switching to Lost I tried to watch some movie my mum has on dvd called Rehearsal For Murder. It's about an actress from a play getting murdered and..well I didn't end up watching the whole thing because it just dragged on. It felt like 2 hours (okay, maybe 20 minutes) had past and the woman hadn't been killed yet, and it was nowhere near the end of the film...I don't know how old that movie is but it had 'special appearance by Geff Goldblum' in the opening credits and I wonder if it was after The Fly or something. He looked young.
I just didn't see what this movie was trying to say...so I turned it off. What's the point in a movie if it doesn't even gain enough interest to make you watch the whole thing? Holy cow. Even crap movies you'll be like "wow, this is shit, but I need to see the rest just to see if it gets worse" but this thing was like watching a blank screen scratch its balls.

Hey this might not be the right time to post it, but it is a movie review:
I just saw No Reservations with Catherine Zeta Jones and Abigail Breslin.

It is one of the most boring movies I have ever seen in my enitre life. 

Half of the movie is Jones walking around crying...

Ugh.

I give it a 4/10. Anybody else want to add to this??
