Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings (2011)
They Did Not Need This Movie
I seen all the bad reviews on this movie and figured your typical negative movie people probably wanted something to complain about like always. However this movie was pointless. There is a lot of blood and gore but having the hillbillies away from the backwoods just did not seem right. This movie was a disappointment. While I do not have anything fancy to say about it, I often stopped paying attention to the movie and felt like I did not miss anything. There is no real character development. The movie does have a few naked sex scenes though if that is your kind of thing. Overall if you do not watch this movie you would not be really missing anything.
Haute tension (2003)
who decided to distribute this movie
I want to know who are the people responsible for distributing this movie? What were they thinking? How did the writers and producer actually think this was going to be made? for this movie to be made a lot of people had to make mistakes. Everyone who touched this movie is to be blamed for one of the most plot hole filled movie.
When someone decided to write this movie you think someone would have said "hey guys this movie sucks. do you really think this is anything better than trash?" but somehow it made it through to get made. The movie is not too bad until the ending when I do not think someone who is purposely trying to make a horrible ending could do this bad.
SPOILERS.............
By accident I think they did make some sense of the movie. the only part of the movie that made sense was the scene where the cops go into the gas station and look at the stores cameras and you see the girl who is the killer actually on the video when the scene was done by her other personality, the guy who drove the truck.
If you want some entertainment and your friends think your favorite horror movie is trash, you should show them this one and they will quickly forget how bad your favorite one is.
The Town (2010)
Movie looked great
I am going to tell you this. I seen the advertisements for this movie. They were out about the same time as the movie machete. The movie starts out pretty good. The thing that gets me though is that it is nothing more than a love story. I felt ripped off. However the movie overall is not bad. It has a decent story and pretty good acting from the characters. I just don't know how a many men in a laundry mat can say a few lines to a respectful women and take her out the same night and be made into a love story. the movie is too long and drags out so much the last half hour. If you are a girl you probably will like this movie. However I wanted a real movie so machete is what I will be watching instead.
Starrcade: The Essential Collection (2009)
great collection of matches
When this DVD was going to released, the whole Starrcade theme along with what I thought was going to be all great matches really made me want to get it. Starrcade had a lot of great matches through the whole card. So I checked out the match listings before I bought the DVD. As I looked through the match listings, I seen many great matches that I liked and thought were some of Starrcades best. however there were a few matches that I thought had no business being in this collection. The match from Starrcade 2000, which was a ladder match for a contract for the cruiser weight titles. 3 Count .vs. Jamie Noble and Evan Karagias .vs. Jung Dragons was not a match that was worth of being in the DVD collection. Another match was from Starrcade 1996 when hogan took on rowdy piper. these guys already had their best matches in the 1980's in the wwf. pretty much to old guys putting on an average show. There are many more great matches from Starrcade that could have made it. Overall though most of the matches are good with some of them being great. I recommend this to any fan of this kind of wrestling.
Dawn of the Dead (2004)
serious zombie movie without cheesy comedy.
I never seen the original movie. I was going to get that one but seen the new version so I got it. this is a great movie. some zombie movies are funny and are not taken serious at all. this movie is great. they don't take any prisoners. the story get better as the movie goes on. you really go through a lot of action and different scenarios. I know a lot of zombies movies start off with almost everyone killed. in this movie however the news show policeman and miliaray men going after, shooting and killing zombies on the TV news flash where the main characters are. so they still do have a lot of people who were not bit by the zombies in this movie that make cameos. it is a more realistic movie then the other comedy/zombie movies. this is the best zombie movie I have seen. Romero really great job on making you feel like there could by a zombies waiting to bite you at all times. the feel of the movie was great. you got to see it.
Zombieland (2009)
Shaun of the Dead, Americanized but better.
The movie was credited as Superbad meets Shaun of the Dead. This statement is about exactly right. Others described this movie as the American version of Shaun of the Dead. This is also right too. While Shaun of the Dead was made in England and really did not look like America, Zombieland is a movie that looks made in America. Unlike how Shaun of the Dead's characters all have British accents (which in my opinion does not give you any familiarity or relation with the character because they are not American) in this movie they are all good old Americans with American ways. One thing that could have made Zombieland even better than the British Zombie movie, is if Zombieland would have had more scenes and action in residental neighborhoods. This can be related to and I think can make the story even better because we can all think about this happening in our neighborhood and what it would be like.
Each character in this movie has their own form of "problem" or "issue" that they deal with. Like in Superbad, Emma Starr again was being pursued by a main character guy who had interest in her throughout the movie. Jesse Eisenburg's character is almost Identical to Michal Cera's character "Evan" in Superbad.
Overall this was an entertaining movie with a a lot of good parts. It had some type of parts in the movie when a character has the chance to do something and in many movies it is not done, it is done with the killing of a certain famous movie star. good movie
The Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1994)
Better than the ratings it gets.
I have seen many people give this a bad rating. however because I seen some good reviews (because some movies get bad ratings but there are them few reviews that actually give the truth) and decided to watch it. for any real horror fan I think they will enjoy this. it is not as a big of production as other Texas Chainsaw Massacres but it is a good story. their are new characters and a lot of the originals are not in this movie. but anyone who likes this series should check this movie out. leatherface was more of a physco in this then other ones in my opinions. give the movie of shot I know their are a lot more worse movies that this you could watch. this should satisfy your movie needs.
Fighting (2009)
Good movie.
I guess some peoples minds are stuck so much into Hollywood that they don't know a believable movie, with a legit story. Channing Tatum played a better role than he is given credit for as goes the same for Terrence Howard. these two characters have a relationship in the movie that goes up and down throughout the whole movie. however because of the situations they are in they almost have to trust each other because they both have a common goal to get money to better their lives. the action in the movie was nothing above average. one would think that the fighting scenes would have been a lot more violent, but again the story is believable and does not have some form of impossible action someone could only survive in a Hollywood movie. these main characters of this movie played a good part. overall it is worth watching and it is a good movie.
Smokin' Aces 2: Assassins' Ball (2010)
Great movie, great action better than the first one.
I see there are a lot of negative reviews about this movie. why? I don't know. this one had better action and the tempo of the movie was better. they did not have any of the non-sense stuff the first one did. you get into the movie right away, all the way until the end. (at least that is my opinion.) it was a lot more easier to fallow. the pace was better. I felt the first one's pace was up and down too much while this one has a more consistent, understandable plot. I am no movie expert just a regular movie watcher who doesn't do fancy reviews about movies. All I got it say is that this was a great movie. I liked the action and story really well. Other people I know who watched them both thought this was a better movie. I guess when Hollywood experts give a movie a good or bad review that seems to be the rating that fallows. This is a great movie. watch it.
Forrest Gump (1994)
well put together movie everyone should see
tom hanks was great in this movie. he really played the character well, showing his ups and downs, emotions, anger, joy and good character throughout the movie. it should be seen by everybody young and old. what is great about this movie is how it captures the emotions and events of this time period. young people who did not grow up at this time (and we are getting older than we think) should see all the happenings of this time. I know a lot of us have heard our parents talk about how things were, but the movie and every character really fit into their role and really captured the life of that time. forrest gump as we all know was "special" and had to face many hardships. because of that it would have been a little harder for him to succeed than the other characters in the movie. however we see that with his honesty, kind and good hearted character that he is able to surpass everyone in the movie and become a well respected, loving father that we all could call a role model.
The Dark Knight (2008)
what was all the hype for?
I am no great movie reviewer or anything special. I just watch movies and I like what I like. everybody was hyping this movie like it was the greatest movie and adults went and seen this movie at the theater and actually paid to see it numerous times. I was expecting this movie to be great. to me it was boring and I quit watching it about halfway through and came back and watch the ending. this movie is over-hyped by people who wanted this movie to be great and made it great in their own heads because they wanted it to be. the movie did not make sense and thing where done in the movie that could not of possibly be done even in the comic books. I don't know why heath ledger was given the academy award. the joker did not make any sense and jack nicholson played the joker better than heath ledger, without a doubt. mickey rourke was more deserving. the problem is most people wanted this to be a great movie and they went and seen it and must have said to themselves this is suppose to be a great movie and actually made it one because of the hype. the batman movies made in the 1990's were good movies especially the first one with michael keaton playing batman and jack as the joker. from the start of this movie I was lost. it was too long and was filled with a bunch of non sense commmotion.
The Devil's Rejects (2005)
did not like rob zombie until this film.
I will give you my thoughts on the movie before I seen it. I thought rob zombie was some kind of devil worshiping maniac. when I seen the title of the movie "devils rejects" I thought to myself that it would be against my religion and evil to watch this movie. after many positive reviews and really getting into all horror type of movies, I decided to watch this movie and figured out the movie would really be demented. right from the beginning of the movie the action starts right away and gets you into the movie. there is a lot of action but not so much that there is too much or doesn't give you any time to relax. house of 1000 corpses takes place right at their country house, while devils rejects actually takes these characters out of their element. you learn a lot about the characters and I must admit that captain spaulding is really entertaining and does things a lot of people would love to do but never will because it is a little too much. you learn a lot about the family and you are shown that even though they are violent weirdos that they still care for each other. I was never a rob zombie fan until this movie. I seen this movie before house of 1000 corpses and I think it actually made it better. overall this is a good action packed movie that had some hint of comedy. I think it is a great movie and is worth watching at least once. the movie is entertaining and there are no boring parts at all.
Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead (2009)
somewhat different than the other two but still a good one
The 3rd movie of this series has the same setting but it is also different. only 3 "weirdos" were in this movie, one of them pretty much being the only one for much of the movie. I think this one was just as good as either of the other two. stuck in the woods this time are inmates being transfered to another jail. that being said the "weirdos" are facing a whole new breed of lost people in the woods who are ruthless and actually seek revenge against them. if the story would have been exactly the same as the other two everyone would have complained that it is the same stuff. now that there is a more fresh storyline, nobody likes it. I don't know what people want in a good movie but I don't know why there are all the bad reviews. there is a lot of action, but it does have some kills that are really far fetched. overall I think this is a movie worth watching and thought it was pretty entertaining.
