Well every movie based on a "true story" does that,which is why I just take them as entertaintment,and nothing more.
I mean I expected that when I saw it, it's just that the bullshit was on such a high level.Well every movie based on a "true story" does that,which is why I just take them as entertaintment,and nothing more.
Only the last 20 minutes was over the top? I thought the entire movie was.Tango and Cash - A very enjoyable bad film.I love how over the top the last 20 mins,with it just throwing all logic out the window.
I wasn't a huge fan of Man of Steel either. It's a fun romp and had some interesting themes and approaches to the story, but feels a bit...wooden? I also think the score didn't really compliment it that well either. Frankly, I thought Faora and Det. Stabler had better chemistry than Supes and Lois...hehMan of Steel - 2.5/5: Way too much exposition for what's really a pretty simple story. And for me, Lois Lane was an unpleasant interruption every time she appeared on screen, and Superman's relationship with his earth father was really melodramatic (the scene with the tornado has to be one of the stupidest pieces of film I've ever seen).
That being said, the movie gets 2.5 stars almost solely for its 10 minute action scene in the middle (the Krypton chick and henchman vs Superman and the Army). Like, that made my night. I've never seen that level of fight choreography in a hollywood film. No bullshit, no overplayed kungfu, no acceleration, no slow motion -- just ass kicking at neckbreak speeds. It was ing flawless. I don't know who directed those scenes but they need to do other movies.

I actually saw this movie when it was out in theaters. I can't remember which other movies I watched that day, but as a 10 year old kid sneaking into an R-rated movie, I was blown away by it. As I look back, the funniest thing was when my dad casually asked which movies I saw, I told him that I saw this one and then he got mad. Not because I snuck into 2 movies or saw 3 movies that day, but just because I watched a rated R film! If he only knew that I saw Robocop when I was like 8 with my older cousin!
I second the sentiments on Dallas Buyers Club.Dallas Buyers Club - Very good with great performances by every actor involved.
Not sure how you're ok with someone revealing the end of a movie. You already see it?I am OK with it. People are too anal about that shit anyway.
Nope, not yet. Have had it on Blu-ray for a while but never got around to seeing it (when I say I have a large backlog, I mean it).Not sure how you're ok with someone revealing the end of a movie. You already see it?
Ok I guess. Personally, I try to avoid reading about the end of movies so when the end does happen it happens through the natural course of what I'm supposed to experience, from the vision of those who created it. Not some letdown because I already know what happens. I have a hard time understanding how such a viewpoint could be considered anal.Nope, not yet.

You're talking to someone who knows exactly what will happen in Seasons 4-5-6 of Breaking Bad just through pop culture osmosis despite not seeing past Season 3. And back when anime series used to come in singles, I viewed way, way more Volume 6 and 7s than Volume 1 and 2s. I also know the ending of pretty much every SquareEnix RPG despite playing, maybe, 3 or 4 of them. Movies I don't have much experience with spoilers as I typically just ignore any non-comic book movie.
Makes me wish I could find a clip of Yami Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged dueling Arcana where he spoils every movie ever made.
I am a fan of the books $ But judging from the trailer it looked pretty bad...i'm still going to watch it though.Vampire Academy (Premiere) - 1/5 - Terrible!
Shazam is his actual name in the new 52 continuity.If a scene works, it will work no matter how many times it's viewed.
Justice League: War - Overall a good film and thankfully way better than the last few entries. However, I didn't like how much of an idiot GL was. For the most part he was funny, but he was pretty much the only one without a scene near the end where he shows why he got the ring in the first place.
This is also kind of nitpicky, but I am so far used to the DCAU and earlier DCU casts that the cast of this movie felt off to me. That, and it would be nice to find somebody other than Kevin Conroy who can do a Batman voice without growling.
Oh, and it's Captain Marvel, not Shazam.
Oh, I know all about that.Shazam is his actual name in the new 52 continuity.
I thought it sucked real hard.Watched The Simpsons Movie. There were some good parts but ultimately I didn't think it was that good. The plot screamed THE MOVIE and I didn't think it was that funny. I went on Wikipedia and looked at the reception section and was shocked to see all the positive reviews that came out for it. I'm one of those people that still believe there are quality Simpsons episodes produced in the last 5 years but this movie just wasn't that funny compared to some of the older episodes that were only 20 minutes.
I've seen this on HBO quite a few times lately since originally seeing it in the theater. It's actually much better than I originally thought.The Beach 2.5/5
I haven't seen Man of Tai Chi yet, will do eventually, but I read in an interview somewhere that keanu was going for that kind of style of acting intentionally. Not that it's any excuse if it still comes across really bad.The Man of Tai Chi - 3/5 - Once you get past Keanu Reeves' deplorable acting, you find that he can be a pretty decent director. The action and fight choreography is fantastic and worth watching for those factors alone.
God Bless America - 4/5 - Expertly written and adequately acted by the entire cast. Fun from beginning to end, but maybe a bit too much blatant satirization of modern America to the point that they beat us over the head with the motif.
Last Action Hero was good until the third act where it just falls apart.The movie is really longer than it should be,and the kid was ing annoying as all hell on top of the fact he couldn't act to save his live.But the last 20 minutes is pretty much the heart of the movie.
Last Action Hero - Haven't seen this in over a decade. One of Arnie's underrated films.
