Transformers
 
I just saw it today, and man It was totally better than I had anticipated. Lots of great effects, some humor, and giant robot battles. Although, I'm not a fan of Transformers, this movie still captured my attention lol.

I couldn't sit through it, I got bored after about 20 minutes of that pissed off Guardsman that kept throwing hissy-fits.

But my last seen movie.

Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny, the first time I saw it I was dead tired and didn't pay much attention, so I watched it again (namely because I'm a Foo Fighters fan and Dave Grohl plays Satan), that was the only part I really liked other than the guy with the crutches "Come here, I'm going to fucking cut you" "... No, we're not comin' over there."

tcm, the begining. 5/10. predictable tripe. they should've made the movie about his childhood. this was basically a reshuffle.

A thoroughly gripping and painfully true story of conspiracy and assassination in the Greek political scene of the 1960s. Awesome film making. Absolutely still powerful and relevant.

Transformers

The kids begged and begged, so I broke down an took them to this steaming turd of a film. Exactly the same as every other Micheal Bay film...loud and hollow and completely devoid of logic. The constantly swirling camera cannot hide the fact that there is no character growth from anyone in this film. The special effects are amazing - but that's it.

Requiem for a Dream.
Very disturbing film of lives spiralling downwards out of control. One of the best films I will ever get the chance to see in my lifetime.

Captivity. 04/10

This started off with some promise, but soon petered downhill really bad. With the "Hitchcock"-ian twists too predictable, and the atmosphere going down badly, Elisha Cuthbert tries her best to keep the movie engrossing. Now this is one gal who has the perfect blend of beauty and talent. I was more than impressed with her in The Quiet, and she continues to impress.

The story is fairly predictable, and the direction is pathetic. Dont expect Saw or Hostel here (its nothing of THAT sort), its just a fair entertainer in terms of thrillers. Watch it if you have nothing else to watch OR if you want to see the pretty and talented Elisha Cuthbert, otherwise give this one a skip. You wont miss much.

The Score (2001)

Besides a pathetically over-the-top performance by Jamie Harrold, and the fact that Brando looks and sounds exhausted, this is a top-notch thriller.
In contrast with the other two, DeNiro and Norton are superb, and Frank Oz's direction is suspenseful and tight.

Dead Silence

I don't see why there are so many haters. I found it to be a fun, creepy and very traditional ghost story - rather refreshing. A cool look, some mediocre acting and a silly story. Good times.

I really didn't.
I thought it was a film trying to have a plot line like Oceans 11 directed by Tarantino.

Although, it was a pretty good effort by Alicia Keys.

Kane_Hodder 07-19-2007 09:37 PM

For a Few Dollars More. Excellent.

The Thing From Another World (1951)

Certainly not as subtle or mysterious as Carpenter's masterpiece, but the idea is solid and the chills plentiful, atop some very sound acting, and one hell of a creature.

My thoughts exactly.


Catching up on the all-timers #7...

Carrie. 07/10

The book was so awesome. But the movie lacks the punch. Its all fine till about the last half an hour when it diverts from the book and takes its own turn. Till then, its strong as hell. Near flawless direction, excellent edgy and haunting atmosphere, and the jumpy scare near the end...all add to the creepiness of this movie.

Sissy Spacek is perfectly cast, and the scene-stealer Piper Laurie as Margaret White is equally impressive. Young uns Nancy Allen and John Travolta's characters arent developed better, unlike in the book. But overall, Carrie is one movie which makes you think...and feel scared...both at the same time.

This Night I'll Possess Your Corpse

Brazilian Writer/Director/Actor Jose Mojica Marins returns as Ze do Caixao (or Coffin Joe) in this bizzaro sequel to At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul. The story follows an agnostic philosopher of a grave digger in search of a perfect (read - morally bankrupt) woman to bear his son and thus keep his "superior" bloodline alive. But women who aren't up to snuff get...snuffed. Although the story is thin and quite slow, the lensing is excellent, the mood is brilliantly creepy and the dream sequence leaps from black & white to vivid giallo-esge color in an incredible depiction of hell. Of course the film devolves into moralism in the end, but is rather subversive (for the time and the country) up until the end.

7/10
