Well it looks like the site is about to go live! I know that it has been a long time since I have updated the site with anything relevant and I sincerely apologize for that. Work, kids, and college (yes, college even at this old age) can put a hamper on things that you feel passionate about. I've changed the direction of the site a bit by trying to review not only movies, but comics, and the occassional commentary. I'm updating the site slowly since I'm still in school and doing other things, but I wanted to put this new site design in the works to eliminate all of the annoying ads that I had placed on the site. Yes, the banners will stay but I have to justify this somehow. Thanks for understanding and please excuse my mess. :>
Review of: Battle: Los Angeles (2011)
There are times that an action film such as this fails in its main objective and that is to bring us action. Battle: Los Angeles succeeds in this with a bang, but also adds something that makes films such as these great and that ingredient is the emotional attachment to the characters we are watching.
The film starts out with an alien attack-taking place, and then quickly falls into the backstory of the men we will be following. We learn a little of each of the marines life and the circumstances that have brought them here. The director, Jonathan Liesbesman, attempts to show the imperfectness of humankind by these backstories, and it is a nice touch that makes the story have a bit of richness to it before the story transitions to the heroism that undoubtedly is about to take place. In the end, all of these marines’ fallacies have to be put to the wayside because there is a war going on, and it is against overwhelming odds.Review of: The True Story of WrestleMania (2011)
Since this is a WrestleMania weekend, I thought I would share an interesting movie that I watched on Netflix with you. The True story of WrestleMania takes the viewer back to a time when there were literally dozens of wrestling federations, and none of them was big enough to dominate over the other. Every wrestling federation worked within a territory where they had control of the wrestlers and no other federations overstepped their bounds. With the advent of WrestleMania, a lot of that changed and put the dominance of the wrestling world in the hands of one Vince McMahon. Internet Media Review of: Internet Movie Database
Sorry about the link to the left, but this is the only thing I could think of to represent the Internet so far. Email me if you can think of anything a little more appropriate or if you have a website that you would like me to review. Now on to the review.
The Internet Movie Database is simply my favorite place to get information about upcoming movies, movies in release, or anything movie related. They even have an app on the iphone so that you can always have access to showtimes, and movie information.
Comic Review of: Planet Hulk
This is where it all starts anew! That should be the title of this great story that is only just begun to be chronicled in this movie. Some of Earth's mightiest superheroes are tired of the rampaging Hulk so they decide to send him off planet. The only problem is that due to ship problems the peaceful noninhabitated planet they sent him to is missed and he ends up landing on a planet that goes by the theory that the strongest survives. All I can say is get this dvd because the "Hulk is strongest there is!"Ten Second Movie Review: Paul
Yes, Paul sucked on so many levels that I didn't even want to take the time to put together a page for it. It's kind of sad really because the two guys (Simon Pegg, Nick Frost) are usually good for some quality laughs. This film had plenty of problems, but the biggest hang up I had with it was its constant attack of religion. Where is the funny in that? So sorry fellas, but you can keep your cigarette smoking, foul talking, alien to yourself.Check to the left for a film that might be worth your time.
