Just got back from seeing 2012, and, wow, great movie. One really gets one’s moneys worth, especially at 2 hours and 28 minutes long. Many critics were blase on it, but, viewer reviews have been pretty good. Great action, great visuals, the dialogue wasn’t as over the top as in Independence Day (same with the […]

Starting off with 9, I’ll give it a B-. It was a pretty darned good post-apocalyptic movie, saw it on the 9th, reminiscent of the 50’s B movie scifi flicks. Mankind is wiped out. All that is left are machines, and some little creatures an inventor created with spare parts and some cloth. The script was […]

3 simple words: Go. See. It. If you like science fiction, this is simply an awesome movie, somewhat in the vein of Alien Nation, with the aliens being located in South Africa, though the premise surrounds a man who works for an agency that controls the aliens. But, during a big relocation project he ends up…….. Nope, […]

Had the day off today, sorta rainy, so, decided to go to the movies. While the newes Night at the Museum looks good, as does UP!, I love horror and scifi, so, had to see Drag Me To Hell first. To make a long story short, awesome! I’ll give it a solid B. It was […]

Someone sounds like they are trying to keep an interest in the movie The director, who uses the single name ‘McG’, told The Telegraph that it was his demand for perfection that triggered Bale’s expletive-laden rant at a crew member. “I’m to blame for the whole thing,†he said. “In a great many ways this […]

Very simple review in 4 words. Don’t waste your time. The dialogue, what little their is, is dumb, and adds almost nothing to the overall plot. You thought the dialogue in Revenge of the Sith was lame? It’s Hemingway in comparison to Terminator Salvation. The plot, what little there is, makes little sense, doesn’t jibe […]

As usual, I am not going to give a whole lot of details. There are about a billion reviews out on ye olde Interwebz. Just the basics. Go see it. Worth the price of admission to the theater. At least a matinee viewing. I went to the 11:15am viewing at a theater in Raleigh, popcorn […]

Saw X-Men Origins: Wolverine this afternoon, and it is well worth seeing in the theaters. Does a great job of mixing action and dialogue, building up the story of how Wolverine came to be, and how he lost his memory. Of course, it isn’t quite perfect, in keeping with the original comics, but, hell of […]

Chilled out, went and saw the new Friday the 13th today. Excellent! Well worth seeing in the theater. Had to be the longest opening scene in film history. Went on for about 20 minutes before the title was shown. Good body count, just the right amount of blood and gore, meaning, they didn’t go for […]

Preferably in a horrible way. Snuffed. Capped. Sacrificed for the greater good. These are from movies (or parts of movies) I have actually seen 1. Jar Jar Binks. I don’t really need to explain, do I? Actually, it was George Lucas who needed to be sacrificed, but, he wasn’t an actual character in the movie. Anyhow, […]
