Ghost Dog - The Way of the Samurai
R
I reviewed this a fucking age ago, but having watched it again last night i thought of redoing it. This is now absolutely cemented into my mind as my favourite film.
I sat for two hours without saying a word while watching this. When it finished, It took several hours for me to start speaking again. This is the kind of film that shuts you up, much like a brick to the face (except with less screaming).
The music is all brilliantly ambient, however that may be a suprise to some, considering it's all hip hop.
I'm not going to give any plot away, however what i will give away is that this is awesome.
Go buy it. NOW!
War of the Worlds
PG-13
I rated this, but now i want to slag it off. This movie is UTTER SHIT.
If you want to be scared, i would suggest eating five curries and taking a dump, then seeing what you've made.
Here's why i think it's rubbish.
1. There's nothing to it. I like movies where the human race gets mangled. i like it when important characters get killed, or more so, UTTERLY FUCKED. This has none of that. you'd of thought they could have made the big jellyfish a bit more SCARY, or have people stay dead. i'm not a big fan of "I RAN INTO A HORDE OF ALIENS, AND THEN A NUKE EXPLODED BUT I'M ACTUALLY ALIVE" parts in films, hence not liking this.
2. this is the main reason. i think maybe if this wasn't there, i could give this a 2 and a half, maybe a three. But this film has the most annoying character of all time. it's OFFICIAL.
i can't remember her name it's been so long since i seen this, but the little girl in this movie... i if i was mr cruises character (can't remember much about this except the lack of entertainment and the little pain in the arse) i would hand her right over to the jellybabies. i know she's a small child, and an alien invasion is scary stuff (although you'd have to be four to find this scary) but this kid, never stops whining. Every time you see them, they're crying. It's hard for a film to be scary when you're just getting pissed off. when i see things killing things, i should be entertained. instead i have to look at some annoying little shit crying a river. no, the sea. no, neptune. By the end of the film, i wanted to kill my family and eat my dog at the mere sight of that kid.
THIS SUCKS THE PENIS OF WHICH BELONGS TO DONKEY KONG. DO NOT WANT!!!
Cloverfield
PG-13
Well, it appears to be getting mixed reviews, but to be honest this movie reinstalled my faith that films CAN still be good. You see i played a video game called Metal Gear Solid 4 which pretty much made all movies (and other games) irrelevant. This made me take that statement back.
Yeah, it has a jerky camera, but so does your wedding video, or the video you took of your mate happy slapping a homeless person. Frankly, the shaky camera only adds to the effect. It's hard to get into a film when nothing seems at all real. "Giant monster KILLING RAMPAGE" movies tend to suffer from this, but the handycam choice makes it feel totally like real dude.
The cast all do pretty well, especially for a bunch of people you don't know (although lizzy caplan, who plays marlena had my brain shouting "WHAT THE FUCK WAS SHE IN?"). They're not spectacular, but they deliver everything with the right amount of conviction.
Of course, the star has to be the monster, however it's for much the same reason as the... erm... well, alien, in the alien movies.
Throughout the film, you never really get a clear picture of it. Some will whine and cry about this, but it's well known that the imagination will make things scarier. imagine watching say, predator, where a diagram pops up every 3 minutes showing you what the predator looks like.
I love films where i can see famous landmarks get ripped to pieces, and i have to say seeing the head of lady liberty get thrown down a street, made for a moments worth of EPIC WIN.
anyway, for anyone who believes the rest of this review to be TL;DR, this is good, watch it. I was hooked, SO FUCKING WATCH! STOP READING THIS REVIEW AND BUY IT! OR RENT IT, OR STEAL IT, OR GET A FRIEND TO COMPILE A SLIDESHOW OF THE MAIN EVENTS AND ACT THE SCENES OUT WITH SHADOW PUPPETS!
but big note, don't expect an ending that you're going to be happy with, you're likely to go "WAIT, I HAVE QUESTIONS!!!".

The Dark Knight
by .:SexiVixxENlol,Like I was ever going to give this anything less than 5 stars.In fact just imagine that I drew another 3 or 4 stars on there,Cause YA its just that dam good.I was ready to be blown away and I got just that.Incredible sound too,I want to marry the THX guy.Anyway The cast is so good,I dont know about Maggie though I just don't dig on her too much,but thats a personal thing nothing to do with the movie.So lets get dirty then,Non stop action,It was over before I knew it,A few people have commented how long it seems and that they thought it should be shorter,Um I wasn't ready for it to be over.The whole ferry scene was really a trip,I didn't expect that,very cool.Heath Ledger was absolutely magical,in fact his magic trick made my tummy do a little flip too,but he IS the joker,I will probably get a lot of shit for this I DON"T CARE!Bring it!!! Not only does Heath Ledger play the Joker he evolved into the joker and I am sorry I think he makes Jack Nicholson's joker look like child's play.He smacked his version right outta the dam park !There just IS no comparison.Dark,demented,FEARLESS.I love every twisted second he was on the screen.I can't explain the exhilration of finally getting to see this after waiting for what seemed like eternity,It seemed like the wait got longer too after Heath passed away.But it's like stepping into the front car of the brand new roller coaster and literally after the DC comics logo flashed and it was beginning I felt myself take a deep breath,I knew I was in for a great ride.I shit you not I was like Christmas for me today.I know there will be other good movies this year,I won't LET anything in my heart or mind surpass this movie.Oh and families on a tight budget,I get it,but hear me out.If you have 1 movie that you can go to all year and see in the theater you want it to be this one,I guarantee it.Anyone who waits for this to come out on DVD ,you are cheating yourself out of the full experience.Nolan is a brilliant ,brilliant man,nothing was left out.Seriously,riveted the entire time,the music,plot,characters,everything was totally ON POINT.Here I am adding my extra stars here.Go see this movie ASAP!!! =)***** and 5 more for Heath *****

Batman Begins
by .:SexiVixxENOk ya'll OMG! I KNOW I am going to hear so much crap about this,but hear we go I am stepping out on a limb and owning this.Ok for some wacko reason I thought I had seen this movie thats why it was rated this whole time.Um yeah well,over the past week I have been in an argument with myself about Christian Bale being Batman,I remember Kilmer,Keaton blah blah but trying to recall details with Bale was leading to no where.So luckiliy it was showing on cable and lo and dam behold I just watched this for the first time tonight.What an AWESOME movie.Liam Neeson was a great surprise.I loved it beginning to end,I am SOOOOOO ready for The Dark Knight its like the kid who can't sleep the Night before Christmas.It's ridiculous!Anyway so there is my ugly confession of the week.I sure do wish I knew the reason that Katie Holmes did not want to play Rachel in the Dark Knight,if anyone knows will you please fill me in.Oh,by the way if you as well have not seen this.I totally recommend it.Especially if you want to be fully ready for The Dark Knight.=)

The Reaping
by curtisA uniquely made story line building up to the unexpected. Why would you want more? Who would think old world Bible Mythology could still hold such sway. The use of bringing the plagues to life in a modern society, I love it.

Into the Wild
by .:SexiVixxENChristopher McCandless: [written into book] Happiness only real when shared.
(In and of itself,How powerful and profound is that?)This is movie was so much more than I expected.A real journey,a breaking free from everything.Emile Hirsch has a whole new respect in my book,any actor thats willing to drop alot of weight for films is pretty dedicated.I also read some other interesting things on IMDB.Anyway this is a very emotionally driven movie.It was so sad at points with his family that was left behind,so utterly broken from his 'disapperance'.Only his sister really understood him.He met some unconventional characters along the way,he had fun,he had an amazing adventure and this man saw things in this world most of us will never ever, even get close to.He found the beauty in the simplicity of just being.This is a beautiful but tragic true story this is highly recommended =)Hey, you should really see this!

Hancock
by curtishahahahahahaha, what more can one say to this mock superhero flick? Graphically humerous, painfully outragious. I wish I could give you something about this superhero who is nothing but a basic a-hole, but anything I say would ruin it, tell you what though, when you see it just remember to watch for the guy flailing his arms about, funniest thing I have ever seen. nearly lost my popcorn and raisonettes.
Trust is all I have to say about that.

Shortbus
by .:SexiVixxENAlrighty then!!! eh Hem.Next time I will do a lil more research before I just pop down and watch the next friendly Flix recomendation.Ok so no this isn't porn,but its right up there,and a lot of people I know would have not made it past the first 5 minutes.But because I am open minded I wanted to give it a chance.Not all scenes were for me,saying that there actually is a great story that goes along with this film.About real people,with real problems,and real sexual issues that are just trying to get their lives sorted out.If you can be open minded and know there will be guy on guy scenes you will be fine.If not don't bother,You will just get mad at me for not warning you.Have fun =)
