ComicBook/VideoGame Movies

Visually speaking, 300 is a remarkable piece of art. Kind of like Sin City and Gladiator mixed with steroids.

Snyder's striking use of color helps to emphasize and enhance the mood of each scene, and the CGI work is fluid and flawless. With surprisingly fleshed out characters and a plot that's both simple and deep, 300 blends bloody violence, sensuality, brutality, and moments of true beauty into a breathtaking and mesmerizing film experience.

There's plenty of blood and body parts being chopped off and some of the best fight scenes on film. Snyder's use of stop-motion to capture specific moments during battle helps the film achieve a painting come to life kind of tone.

And for all the dismemberments and killings, there are a few passionate moments between the Spartan king and queen tossed in to balance it out. In other words, there's a little something for action film freaks as well as those more into drama and romance.

And let's be totally honest here. Just the sight of Butler and the talented cast of actors who make up the Spartan army running around in "codpieces" that barely conceal the family jewels and little else is reason enough for most women to want to check out the film.

Probably the most visually intoxicating movie I've seen to date, from the first double-cross to the last screaming second of mayhem and slaughter I was totally blown away. I can't wait for the next chapters of this comicbook brought to life.

Can a terrorist be a hero? Vendetta's answer is "yes."
Yes, a terrorist can be a hero. Yes, violence can be justified, even necessary, in the fight against oppressive regimes. And, yes, in the words of V, its alliterative desperado, "blowing up a building can change the world."

In the best films, all elements -- performance, cinematography, score -- exist simply and solely to tell the story. And Vendetta is a fine example. Its as invigorating, challenging, and moving a film as one can hope to expect, especially from a major studio production.

When the film reaches its darkest, most harrowing hour, a side story about a lone woman's impossible love in the time of government oppression is absolutely heartbreaking, and the point of the movie becomes crystal clear: this is a story of individuals triumphing over administrations, about personal histories claiming their place in public record. Remember, Remember, the 5th of November...Whether you love it or hate it, you can't keep your eyes off of it, V for Vendetta grabs you and holds you.

A political thriller enhanced with a healthy dose of both fantasy and current relevance, it questions authority in ways that are uncomfortable for some, liberating for others, and eye-opening for everyone. After watching this intelligent extrapolation of the current social and political climate, one would be hard-pressed to accept anything at face value again.

Its viciously, vibrantly, vigorously, very, very good!

Transformers has some of the best action you will ever see in a movie, but it's the transformation of robots to everyday electronics and back again that will blow your mind. Anyone familiar with the Transformers knows that they transform back and forth from cars or trucks or radios into their robot form, but I was amazed at how seamless and natural it looked on screen. Add that to the eye-popping robot smackdowns and good old fashioned car chases, and you have a movie that is going to get your blood pumping and your heartbeat racing.
The film's most magical scenes are the Autobots sneaking around like little kids, these hulking machines. Even when Bumblebee is in Herbie mode, before he reveals himself, he's full of endearing character. Other than Shia(who really shined in this movie), the acting was mediocre at best, but who cares!
Yes, it's loud, explosive and silly, but it also perfectly embodies the concept of a summer blockbuster with its simple good-guys-vs.-bad-guys plot, cheeky humor and flawless special effects.

This movie was sooo disappionting! I enjoyed Milla's other films that I was surprised how bad this movie was, the concept was actually really cool but they could of done such a better job with it and all the action and violence was great and all but lacked something, I'm not sure what that something is but I just wasn't "Wow'd"...the acting was poor and their was no depth to any of the characters and I was pretty much bored, there were very few parts in the movie that kept my attention and was somewhat entertaining. The whole style and feel to the movie was appealing its just too bad it was overshadowed by a really sucky movie.

The Ghost Rider bike was the coolest thing about this movie, other than that it was kind of cheesy.

Gothika and x-men are the only movies I liked Halle Barry in...this movie really showed how horrible of an actress she really is.
