The Dark Knight
Think back to a couple of months a go when this movie was everywere, well once it gets out on DVD the hype will start all over again just so the producers can make another 72 trillion dollars. So i thought i might as well write a review on this film before the hype restarts.
The movie was OK. Not great, not ***** either but OK. IMO the film is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over rated. Just because it has some cool effects and a good performance by Heath Ledger it does not make this movie better than Jesus having a beer with John Lennon and Martin Luther King while singing with Elvis in Hawaii during the first days of world peace... or anything else that awesome for that matter.
Some high points of the film were the start scene with the bank robery, Ledger's performance (obviously) and some of the effects.
Low points? Well other than the kinda boring plot there was nothing realy that bad with it. But there was nothing reallllly that good about it either.
The hype convinved people that this film would be good. The Dark Knight was some people's favourtie movie days before they had even seen it. Thats how extreme the hype was.
DK is alot like a medicine that does not work but is maketed to convince people that it works real well and when people do try it they get the idea that this "medince" works even though it obviously does not. People would be watching the movie and because they heard so much good things about the film a normally average scene that would either looked upon as crap in a low rated film or avergage in an average rated film would be looked upon as a kick ass scene in DK.
The movie also went for three hours which is a b!tch. But it was still a bit fun and i give it 3/5.
The 6th Day
This action movie staring Swazernagger is pretty crap to be honest. I just could not get into it for what ever reason. Probaly the main reason was, was the plot.
The plot in this film was so confusing that i lost all sense of what was happening half way through the movie. It had something to do with clones but it lost me at that. This movie is a prime example of how action movies turn crap after a their once simple plot turns confusing as hell. For example you know those movies were there is a ***** load of fighting and action that gets you all pumped, then all of a sudden the bad guys start talking quietly about something and you miss what they were saying and then the rest of the friggin movie does not make sense, well this exacly was the case for the 6th Day.
The action also was pretty crap as it was not the normall Arni style action. So i give this movie 2/5.
