Bullet to the head

      At first I thought because of it being an action packed movie, I would love it. but after watching it with the thin plot line and the duality of good cop with an assassin, it just didn't do good on the screen I will say that Jason Moama the Conan actor did a really good job as the bad guy but at the end of the story to quicken the pain of watching, he just kills off as many people as he can This movie was more like a bullet to my head. I would skip it.

Punisher: Dirty Laundry

I watched this in July. I liked it better then his Movie. What do you think?????

Attack the Block

  This movie is out for rental. It is a sci fi action thrill ride. The hero is a child thug who runs around with a bunch of kids robbing people for pocket change.
   His life changes when a meteor hit a car and he is attacked by a little monster. He and his crew go postal on the little creature. Then the monster's family comes a looking.  The best part of the movie is Ron's weed room. The monsters are super hairy gorillas with glowing teeth.
  I recommend that you give this a watch.  It is a fun movie

Movie Review: Scream 4

     I am watching Scream 4 and thought, why don't I blog a review at the same time. Well they have  the remaining  cast returning with Dewey as the sheriff and still a bad shot with a pistol. Gale Weathers is still a bitch.
     So far the beginning sucked because they try to be to be cool with it. But it fell flat with only one cool twist. The murder scenes needed a little more power and scare. Sidney so far kick boxes the bad guy in the first match.  The infusion of the younger cast fell flat. The underage drunk party was called Stab- A-Thon. Right now I am guessing Multiple killers.  Well as I guessed cops on guard gets it the worst. Note to watchers being "gay" does not help as a reason not to be killed.  The movie played out like you would think. Ok rental

So you can remember the plot of the series.

So this is how scream one should have ended.

   What do think? Should I stop reviewing rental?

Movie Review: Paul

    Paul the alien is a pot smoking lazy ET on the run. He meets up with to brits and the journey begins. I can say Seth Rogan was great as Paul. I have to admit, I can't find a movie Simon Pegg is not good in.  Jason Bateman is great as a man in black. I laughed lightly during the movie and even though the plot was predictable, it was a good one time thing.
 Paul is also responsible for most of the pop culture for the last 65 years.

Knights of Badassdom: Trailer

  I found the below trailer on the web. It has a good cast with Summer Glau and Steve Zahn (wizard who raises a succubus). The story seems to be about a group of LARP player accidentally calling a daemon to the mortal realm.  Now they are fighting for real. Since I don't play I might not pick up on all the joke but my friends should clue me in. I mean really how can you not laugh at a dwarf beating people with foam swords. I will definitely see this one even if I don't Larp. Will you see it?

Captain America: The First Avenger

   So, I went to see Captain America on opening day. I liked the fact that the origins were close to the comics. They left room for the Winter Soldier and in my opinion the Red Skull to return in later movies. They really down played the nazis and made hydra a spinter science unit.  The CGI was good and action was alittle light at the begining but picked up.

    Now it is time to tell you if I liked the movie I had been waiting years to see. Was the movie up to the hype?
  I would say yes and no.
    Yes, because it was a good movie with a good story and good acting. The costume upgrading as the movie progressed was a treat.
    No, because it was slow at the beginning and they didn't make you really hate the Red Skull (Hugo Weaving was great). They needed to develope the Red Skull more. They made him the head villain but you didn't get much feel for him. They also cut through alot of the war scenes to give more time at the beginning of the movie to Capt.'s development.
    In closing I say watch it twice because this was a great opening movie for the franchise for both Capt. America and Avengers. Let me know what you think.

How Empire Strikes Back Should Have Ended

  Vader wanted to be a good father, but they didn't show that enough. So, I found an ending that shows a fathers love.

How Thor Should of Ended

 I always questioned why he left her now.

Chick Flicks: What we do for Love

 So, I was at work and my Blog mentor(Dan is the man, This blog would not be here without him, Thanks) and I had talked about Chick flicks we watched for our girlfriends and in his case wife. We laughed that we liked some of them but never liked to admit it. So her I go to start a POST to get people(not just guys) to tell me what their top 3 chick flicks are. So I will start by listing three, now these are not my favorite but I would watch them without a fight.



 1. Some kind of wonderful: 1987, Eric Stoltz a grease monkey tomboy play played by  Mary Stuart Masterson  help Eric try to land Lea Thompson.  The story of a guy trying to have the perfect date was great.







2. Say Anything: 1989, High school senior Lloyd Dobler John Cusack wants nothing more than to go out with beautiful and intelligent Diane Court Ione Skye . Lloyd attempts to win her heart over the objections of her over-protective father John Mahoney before Diane leaves for a scholarship in England.

3. 50FirstDates: 2004, Henry Roth Adam Sandler, lives in a Hawaiian paradise with the company of endless women with no strings attached. This is until he meets Lucy Whitmore Drew Barrymore. Both Henry and Lucy enjoy the company of each other and feels the start of a serious relationship occurring. Approaching Lucy the next day, Henry is confused when Lucy fails to recognise him. This is the moment Henry discovers that Lucy actually suffers from short term memory loss and can't remember each individual day. Henry won't let this stop him and is prepared to make her fall in love with him all over again, each and every day.

          I hope to hear what you like please, comment.

Priest: After Thoughts

  I caught the midnight showing of Priest. I must say the reviews were a little hard but not to off. The background scenes were a little long and useless(it wasted time.). The Dialogue needed tweaking and refining. The plot was not bad at all.

  I felt it was worth a see, unlike the reviewers. The western feel was a good twist. But the sheriff was to get the teen girls to watch(sad, they could have found someone better.). I will also point out that futuristic fighting monks have been done better by Christan Bale in Equilibrium ( Gun priests were much cooler, but no vamps.).
   The vamps were a light sensitive race that had been on the planet since the beginning of history. They used spit/vomit to build hives cities. After the wars the vamps were put on reservations,( American Indian tie in). 
   Black Hat the villain needed a little work also he had the making of a good antagonist but fell a little flat. His best scene was when he is dancing during the the destruction  of a town and they cut it way to short.  They did make him uber tough and left him viable for a sequel so that could rock with a little tweaking.
  I am going to rent it again, I hope that people will give it a rent.  

Priest: Pre viewing Thoughts

   I watched an interview with Karl Urban. He made the movie sound like it was a sci fi, western, vampire, and apocalypse mash up. The trailers are very interesting, underworld like.
   The storyline is about a slayer priest that goes out side the order to rescue his niece(I think), So he chases the vampire kidnappers, and runs from the order.
   Karl Urban's character is a priest turned vamp, so there should be a lot of close banter.  The preview of the train fight looked promising.

    Lets hope this will be well produced with a good script. The cast looks great, so it does already has one thing going for it.

     If you see it let me know? 

THOR

   I went and watched Thor today with small hopes of entertainment. As I sat down in the seat wishing I was watching the Captain America Movie and praying I did not fall asleep ( I did work midnight), I was mildly surprised and entertained.
   The acting was OK,  Portman was a little flat. Shield seemed more like the Men in Black then what I would have liked. It had tons of effects. The story just did not draw me in or make me care. Thor's transformation from a god to a humble man didn't even get a montage, so it was a day or two then he evolves (but helped movies pace). Loki was good but not evil enough to make you feel like hes was a true mastermind. And don 't even get me started about the twirling hammer rock chucking or lack of action destroyer fight scenes (I thought it could have been longer).

   My 5 year old daughter loved it she sat through the two hours and wanted more. So there is an audience and I can't tell you I hated it but I didn't love it. If you don't like Thor this movie will not change your mind. you can easily skip it and would not loose anything seeing the avengers.


PS Hawkeye was in it but only aims his bow and says a few words. My girlfriend had to ask if i was even him. I say "cheap bad cameo."

Skyline:Review

 So I watched Skyline on Blue-ray. Boy I am happy I didn't go to the movies for that one. The acting was good but the story lacked to say the least. The effects were good, but the idea of an incursion with little resistance on the planet is a little played out.
  I think every time I was suppose to be surprised by something I was two to three seconds ahead, thinking why could they not speed this up. How long can you watch them huddle in the penthouse trying not to look at what was going on outside. Hide in a basement at least a place with less windows (come on a sheet over the windows, not to hard.) I also find it hard to care about self indulgent rich people in trouble .
  The whole battery brain thing was funny and different . I also like that human weapons did some damage(missile launchers are good during any invasion) , even if the aliens could do a stupid rebuild(Necrons are an exception, only thing that makes them playable/winnable).

  All in all I feel it was only OK and rent it if you have seen all the new releases and need a b-movie. I would rather watch Tim Thomerson  in another trancers movie (OK who wouldn't)

  Let Me know what you think, am I being to hard? Remember if you like it defend it.
