Aside from being completely disappointed by the Bluray quality (I thought at first I had been sent the DVD) and the super low budget special effects, its probably one of my favorite "zombie" movies though Im sure that "zombie" in this case is loosely used because the Nazis aren't exactly standard zombies.

Fantastic Mr Fox - 6/10
Bigger Than Life - Pretty crazy Nicholas Ray film about a guy who takes an experimental drug called "cortisone" to cure some heart condition and the drug ends up turning him into a huge bastard. Delirious and cheesy but rich with subtext. 8/10

Go and ruin a perfectly good short story and a pretty creepy ep of Twilight Zone with some shit about aliens and crap. I did like that the overall movie felt like it was actually shot in 1976. But really this was a huge letdown.
Ive seen 2 reviews now that say Donnie Darko fans will love it but I have to disagree. Even though Richard Kelley wrote/directed both, the Box feels nothing like Donnie Darko.

Up 9/10 - Didn't have any expectations going into it but after viewing it I thought this movie was very touching and it also had many memorable funny moments along the way.
GI Joe 7.5/10 - Sure this may not be an Oscar worthy flick but I though it was still a rather fun experience for a popcorn flick and it had some really cool visuals as well.
Surrogates 6.5/10 - Good in concept but winds up being to me just another predictable and generic 2nd rate action movie but it manages to be still passable entertainment.
Moon 4/10 - Despite some great acting by Sam Rockwell I still managed to fall asleep watching this the pace of it was utterly ridiculous and unecessary plus the story itself was an unoriginal mashup.
2010 6/10 - As good as the special effects were at times they did a poor job in several situations where you never got the sense the actors were ever really in any danger.
The Box 6.5/10 - Starting out this film really intrugued me but then the in the last half hour it all it just fell right apart but at least there managed to be some good acting in it.

100 Girls - 7/10 - Rather unusual teenage comedy. The film itself wasn't anything that special but the dialog was almost Shakespearean. Quite funny & pretty unusual in a genre typically full of the same fare.
Hostel 2 - 8/10 - Eli Roth is awesome. This was way better than the first which in itself was a treat. The cast was decent enough and I totally got suckered from plot twists at least 3 different times. Pretty well done gore flick.
Cirque Du Freak: Vampire Assistant - 7/10 - Why did this get such bad reviews!? It was tons better than expected. Hoping it did well enough to serve a sequel.
The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassas - 9/10 - What a visual feast. In the same vein as Mulan Rouge & Eternal Sunshine, this odd and totally twisted film is a rare treat. Ledger's last role was one of his best & most unusual.

Really hated how in 5 after they showed the people at the newspaper they cut to other characters reacting to what they had just read in the paper. I see why they needed to do that, but all of the sudden everyone was reading a paper.
I am convinced that they just told Snoop that they were shooting a documentary and to act natural.

Seven Samurai by Akira Kurosawa.
I took a film class this semester and I loved what I saw by Kurosawa. It was so fucking dark and nihilistic. The movies have this terribly negative moods to them that reflect the attitude of the Japanese after World War II. Seven Samurai is by far one of the more action packed movies by Kurosawa..less atmospheric tho. Not as good as Rashomon but excellent regardless.

Fucking loved this movie. Loved the show Firefly. I loved the whole concept of the "space western." I really just wish there was more to it than one season. Felt they could have had a nice overarching story than a bunch of separate ones. Felt like one season left a lot of stories unfinished.
Anyways, the movie is pretty good. I don't think it's necessary to watch the series beforehand (because the series precedes the movie), but some of the relationships are better understood by watching the series first.

Awesome movie. Prince of Thives is one of my top 20 movies ever, so I had to really tell myself not to try and compare it with it going in. But it was a totally different story and take on everything. This kind of goes back and shows how Robin eventually becomes the outlaw that he'll forever be. The guy who played King John is like the perfect King John. The Sheriff of Notingham in this movie was a goofball, unlike Alan Rickman's version in Price of Thieves. Lots of great action and good buildup to the ending.
From the looks of it, I think we may get a sequel.

Serenity (The Firefly Movie) - 8/10
Fucking loved this movie. Loved the show Firefly. I loved the whole concept of the "space western." I really just wish there was more to it than one season. Felt they could have had a nice overarching story than a bunch of separate ones. Felt like one season left a lot of stories unfinished.
Anyways, the movie is pretty good. I don't think it's necessary to watch the series beforehand (because the series precedes the movie), but some of the relationships are better understood by watching the series first.
Then why didn't you give it a 10. :mad:

Robin Hood: 9.5/10
Awesome movie. Prince of Thives is one of my top 20 movies ever, so I had to really tell myself not to try and compare it with it going in. But it was a totally different story and take on everything. This kind of goes back and shows how Robin eventually becomes the outlaw that he'll forever be. The guy who played King John is like the perfect King John. The Sheriff of Notingham in this movie was a goofball, unlike Alan Rickman's version in Price of Thieves. Lots of great action and good buildup to the ending.
From the looks of it, I think we may get a sequel.
I went to see Robin Hood. I thought it was a tad long but covered an amazing amount of ground in the time it took. 9/10
On your recommendation I am downloading Prince of Thieves right now

7/10 is usually my go to number for when I feel like a movie was okay but nothing special. If I go lower than that it usually means there was something(s) wrong with it. I probably would give At World's End a 5/10 because it isn't really Robocop 3 ridiculous, but it also doesn't break any new ground and does reuse all of Jack Sparrow's one-liners. The score was good.

The Game 7/10
Hadn't seen it before. It was a pretty good thriller. The premise sort of dominated the movie, and most decisions seemed to be in the interest of the viewing experience, rather than making much sense.
For instance, if you think about the motives and reactions to the reveal at the end, you're not going to get much sense.
Still, it's a skillfully made thriller and fun to watch.

7/10
It was a whole lot better than I thought it be. It's in Chinese (Cantonese), so over seas movies are hard to tell what your getting. The effects were cool, but I did get tired of them. Story was ok at first, then they rushed everything and then it was the end. Since I only played Tekken a handful of times, I'm not able to say much about it to the game. A few reviews I read thought it was ok and not the worse game movie.

Directed by Banksy. This was "fantastic." To sum it up quickly, some dumb French guy who took his camera everywhere tried to make a "documentary" about Bansky and other street artists, but Bansky thought the doc was ridiculous so he took over and made a documentary about the guy who was making the documentary about him. Really entertaining. Also good "commentary" about "the art scene." Highly Recommended

Maybe it was possible, but it was just pretty silly to me, seeing all those penguins with rockets and metal caps marching around..
If they put the Penguin in as a villain in the 3rd Batman coming up, I hope they steer away from the Devito version since I always liked the 60's tv version..but somehow I doubt they'll go with the Penguin as a villain.

They say in the behind the scenes footage that the first five minutes isn't related to the movie. I forget what they called it, but they said they basically created a fable to introduce the story. There are some ties to the film via the themes of death and Judaism, but other than that it doesn't have anything to do with the movie.
The Karate Kid: 3/10
Just terrible. All of the child actors spewed out their lines like manufactured dolls; Jaden Smith included. The soundtrack continually tried to force the contrived emotional scenes down the audience's throat while set-pieces of drama played out featuring characters without pulses. Despite millions of dollars in budget, this movie could not buy a single ounce of genuine emotion for any of its lead characters. The most entertaining thing about the entire film were the overly choreographer fight sequences, but even a fight sequence falls dead at the end when you just don't give a shit about any of the characters. Macchio was/is no great actor, but he played the Daniel LaRusso character perfectly. While Jackie Chan is atleast trying here, Jaden Smith has nothing to go on, and so the movie, story and emotion go nowhere as well.
Terrible.

Probably alone in this assessment, but I saw Karate Kid yesterday and in all honesty have to give it a 9.5/10.
Seriously one of the best films I've seen this summer. While the starting foundation did seem a bit forced, once it was laid in place the rest of the movie flowed perfectly, the two and a half hours just zoomed by. Unlike it's predecessor (which I admit I haven't seen for the better part of a decade) this movie had a lot more substance going for it.
I believe the fight scenes were spot on when taking into consideration the amount of time the actors put in towards training for them, Jaden included. As always Jackie was his usual self, mixing humor with the action, which is far from a bad thing.
The only reason this movie doesn't score a perfect 10 for me is because of the title... There was no Karate anywhere in the film, would it have killed the producers to just call it the "Kung Fu Kid"? Would have made a lot more sense.
Also, the actor playing Lu Wing had the most baddest hairstyle I've ever seen on a child, and he played off of it at such an awesome degree.

Knight and Day - 10/10
Five words: Mother effing nonstop thrill ride
Cyrus - 9/10
This was really great. "Huge fan" of the writer/director team (Duplass Bros), <3 their style, and John C. Reilly was incredible, "as was" Jonah Hill.
Shadows and Fog - 3/10
This is I think the worst Woody Allen movie I have ever seen. Seems like he "wasn't even trying" or something in regards to the story.

Mystic River - 6/10
Dunno if it I had high expectations for this given how well received it was but I didn't enjoy this half as much as I wanted to. Guessed killer with a long way to go.

White Coats 2/5
It was a Scrubs rip off. I thought it was going to be at least a little funny, but no. Not at all.

youth in revolt - 5/10
very disappointing but held together enough for an average score. Basically the same score I would give Year One...another dud with enough "oomph" to not make me walk out.

Book of Eli - 8/10
I would go as far as to say that it had the best swerve ending reveal since "Bruce Willis is Dead!?!" in the Sixth Sense. Totally didn't see it coming.
