| JCVD (Van Dammage) - R |
Definitley the surprise of the year. Don't expect the famous split kicks and violence and bad scripts. Noone knows what to expect from this film... except maybe humanity. Cause in the end, you can be JCVD, but you are still human. This movie really blurs the lines between reality and the entertainment world, Van Damme protraying his life from his own eyes and the emotion and pain he suffers as his career and personal life hits rock bottom. Now... ever imagine a movie star in a situation way out of his control? Reduced to nothing? I guess none of you wont like it either. What you will like: Van Damme actually ACTING!! He put in a great effort to show the vulnerable side of himself, and it was great. it just goes to show you tha a super human being can be bent, broken, left lying in the gutter without a hand of support... and hit what is utlimatley the depths of his own personal hell. Thrown in the midst of this emotional drama is a little humor, well obviously, since people do go a little crazy when a mega star shows up in town to rob a post office. The moment when we enter Van Damme's mind and he pours out all his feelings and views is certainly a good show of the softer side of stardom. As he says, its not right to judge others... but its hard for US NOT TO JUDGE HIM. Being in the public eye has its virtues and its curses... Anyways, the ending is left unspoken, but a fresh start is what Van Damme needs... this movie, clearly showing one path of near self destruction leads to a rebuilding of character and life, is an allusion to what Van Damme wants now... people to take him seriously as a cinema icon and a legend. And I loved his action films except for recent b grades... but now I can finally say I can take a Van Damme movie seriously and credit him with some innovation and a performance which did get everyone's attention. |

| Crank - R |
(hey, i watched this ages ago but for some reason i never reivewed it!! O_O! unthinkable!! anyways, i just bought it on DVD... hence it may be worth watching rite? yes it is!)
As they say, its a hard core action smash, from the first minute to the last... the movie never stops... its like holding your breath for 90 mins!! XD A simple yet very wild plot, the movie is steeped in immoralaity and depravity, but hey, thazz life - and its that type of movie. But hell, I wouldnt want to be in this situation... watch Jason Statham tear up LA in a psychosis worse than a serial killer.... knowing that he has been injected with a posion that can only be delayed by adrenalin, he goes on a rampage to get revenge on the MF's who nailed him and stay alive in the process.... DAMN!!! the action and such is fine tuned to near perfection..... unreal Camera work!! and of course, totally random!! what else do you expect from a Indie Studios film.... some good whole and hearty entertainment!! All that plus that reallly controversial sex scene! with Amy Smart, groups of gang-bangers and a transexual dancer (o_O!!!) and of course some good line and great moments, action fanatics would wonder why they havnt seen this sooner! The camera work is mad.... some really inventive and unqiue techniques... I applaud their creativity, it matches with the overall style and story of the film... music is hard core rap and rock to match the movie as well.... best bit - the beginning: Jason screams and destroys the Plasma TV.... priceless cinematic moment! it should go down in history as the best "pissed of moment" in the movies!
