Dead or Alive

I just watched the movie Dead or Alive on video. It's no wonder that the movie went straight to video.

The movie had many flaws, it's hard to begin. Right from the beginning the background scenery was very poorly done with computer animation. It was like watching a bad scene from a video game.

The plot was laughable, what little of it there was.

The only redeeming trait of the movie were the very beautiful actresses such as Devon Aoki.

Overall rating: 5/10

3: It is based on a video game.

4: You thought it was going to be good?

I watched it a few days ago.

Umm...

I liked it.
It was exactly what I expected it to be. No better, No worse.
Besides, I like a little cheese with my eye-candy.

Haha I saw Dead or Alive in the theater when I was in Dublin last summer.

It actually wasn't as bad as I expected it would be. It was, of course, very cheesy. But the fighting was decent and the women were beautiful. I loved Devon Aoki in Sin City and she was still fun to look at here.

I find Jaime Pressly both hilarious and gorgeous. And seeing Kevin Nash as her dad cracked me up.

All in all it is a fun, cheesy action flick. No worse than other fun, cheesy action flicks and certainly better than some other video game movies (Bloodrayne or Street Fighter anyone?)

Wether or not you should see it depends on how seriously you take your movie viewing.
It was basicly a cartoon plot and although it was packed with hot babes, there was no exposed nudity or swearing so they kept a clean rating for kids.

The fight scenes were pretty damn cool though and I usually hate martial arts movies. It was more exagerated martial arts like Xena would have rather than anything realistic.

Very fabulous indeed....



If not because of the ladies.. i will not watch this movie... hehe



It's surprisingly fluffy but definitely not as bad as critics made it out to be. I think the reason why I kind of enjoyed this film is that my expectations were REALLY low. I mainly wanted to see characters fight for the hell of it and I got just that. It's an enjoyable piece of junk.

2 stars out of 4

Maybe, too, the screen was really a screen. It screened us... from the world.

Umm maybe they were paid to put it in the movie



Why would sony pay them to put one of their mp3 players in the movie, where:

-the guy is using it as a camera
-the sony name and label isn't visible
-and only people who already owned one would recognise it
???

if theres no advertisement, whats the point?
