Last Action Hero

Re: Last Action Hero

I loved it. It predates Scream, Cabin In The Woods etc with its meta narrative. But I think at that time the, the cinema audience just couldn't get it... plus some bad marketing as well. I only...

Re: Rate The Last Movie You Saw

As someone who hates 'Young Adult' franchises I quite like the Hunger Games films. Catching Fire is a good film. The ending was very weak though. 7/10.

Re: Name A Movie You Simply Can't Watch To The End

300 was a pain to sit through. I was really bored during that. I don't understand why its so highly rated.

Re: 10 Sci-fi Movies That Probably shouldn't have ever been made

Equilibrium is a good film. Sure its seems a little too inspired by The Matrix, but i enjoyed it more than Revolutions. Looper is a bad film, and very overrated, but far from the worst.

Re: "Queen of the Damned" (2002)

I'm a huge Aaliyah fan and I loved Interview With A Vampire. Not sure what went wrong here though. Queen of the Damned was a campy pop version of Interview. Horrible.

Re: Bad But Gorgeous Movies

Oblivion was an incredibly gorgeous looking movie, even though the story was not executed as well as it should have been. I'd say 300 was a bad movie. Don't get the love for it. It looked good, but I...

Re: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

I am looking forward to this. This looks like Stiller's equivalent to Carey's Sunshine of a Spotless Mind. This off-key sci-fi fantasy could indeed be something special.

Dark Skies is Poltergeist with aliens. Still one of the creepier alien abduction movies you will ever see, it looses significant points for not having an actual ending. The family being pestered by...
