The Man With The Golden Gun - 6/10

Would have got higher but automatically lost some points for bringing back that terrible hick cop from the last movie. Couldn't believe it and almost turned it off right then and there. Then he came back later in the movie.

██████opher Lee was cool though.

Resident Evil-ish plot about humans become Lycans and vamps and they call it Infection.. And the only thing "new" is
SPOILER: show
the human scientist baddie disguising himself as an UBER LYCAN ALA Incredible Hulk that has become "immune" to silver nitrate and larger than the normal sized werewolves.


As for Michael the Lycan boyfriend of Selene, he's here except
SPOILER: show
he survived the huntdown and was frozen throughout the movie till the ending he escaped after Selene fired one shot on the blocked ice to defrost.


And I don't recall Selene and Michael
SPOILER: show
having a daughter named Eve who was also part of the Resident Evil-ish experiment who also has the same powers as Michael a hybrid monster


Some gores were a bit decent like putting a grenade inside the Lycan's ripped wounded stomach and BOOM!! And Selene's ability to heal one of the vamps by poking her hand inside the stomach after cutting herself. Ouch!! For some reason despite the bad acting of the
SPOILER: show
daughter Eve
She can still pack a mean big bite out of the Lycans much like Michael. hehe. The unlikely human sidekick is a police agent.. Weird subplots of CSI/Alias style.

The ending was a bit rushed but I still enjoyed it more than the 3rd.

P.S. There's brief nude scene of Kate after she broke out of the ice except only her ass viewable lying down much like Milla in Resident Evil.. The tits were covered in icy fog when she got up. lol.

7/10.

aka White: Melody of the Curse.

The plot is like Perfect Blue meets The Ring.. Except this time, the song "White" performed by the Pink Dolls was NOT REALLY an original pop song. It was written by a previous pop backup dancer who killed herself by drinking bleach because the other girls were bullying her and jealous because she's the leader of the pop group and is the only talented songwriter.. And I really liked the social commentary on how pop music can make celebs be so miserable and they become sell-outs once their songs are just copying each other. Ironic, cos in the movie, one of the 4 members of the Pink Dolls group keep on singing that White song which is cursed during nighttime goes insane and commits suicide in the recording studio..

The creepiest scenes are the backmasking tape records of hearing the ghostly doubled voice in the background.. Same with the music video... Yes, like I said, it's Perfect Blue meets The Ring (in the music world of course.) The part where one of the Pink Doll members tried her high pitched singing it turned into fucking terrifying scream that made her scared shitless when she saw the white haired ghost.. The white hair wig is almost like Manson's Coma White and MEchanical Animals era even though the rest of them wearing the white wigs looked like Lady Gaga clones.

A bonus: The song White which is supposed to be "cursed" in the movie is THE ONLY SOUNDTRACK on this..

Give it a listen if you won't see a dead white haired dancer standing next to you humming the lyrics. And catchy too!!! Another extra creepier shit bonus is that one of the lyrics when you try backmasking it, says "It's hot here in my heart. Can you see me? I'm here behind you." That happened in the movie too!! O____O.

Priest - 3.5 out of 5

The movie itself was a bit boring and slow but got a lot better near the end.

Not sure how related this film and Legion are considering both had the same main actor and almost the same style but liked Legion a lot more.

I liked the difficulty, thought it captured the confusion of Cold War Intelligence. I also likes Alfredson's decision to not dumb anything down and keep things subtle, plus every shot was gorgeous, giving the film a really unique look and feel. Didn't know there were so many gay british intelligence agents either. 8/10

Tabloid - Documentary by Errol Morris about a beauty queen who was charged with kidnapping and raping some mormon dude she was obsessed with and how she became a tabloid sensation. Morris has a knack for finding crazy ass people and using their messed up stories to explore more complex ideas, like the haziness of truth. 7/10

Gates of Heaven - Another Morris documentary, this was about the owners of a pet cemetery and the people who have their pets buried there. 7/10

A Dangerous Method - Fassbender and Viggo were amazing, movie was kinda meh. It's exploration of psychoanalysis and the sophisticated conversations/feud between Freud and Jung was interesting but Keira Knightly wasn't all that convincing and as a movie it felt a little "undercooked".

Real Steel - 45

God I was really looking forward to this too because I love a good boxing story. I set the bar so low before watching it and it couldn't beat that. The scenes where there was no robot boxing and explaining the characters motivations dragged on way too long. That kid is an awful actor and almost ruined the movie. Hugh Jackman's accent kept changing every 20 mins. I'm still a little confused as to whether or not he phoned it in or put on one of his best performances. I haven't decided. Kate

Resident Evil Afterlife - 2 out of 5

Hate the 3rd one more than this one in the series although this one really went overboard with the slow motion scenes. The entire fight against the Executioner character was almost done in entirely slow motion.

Ultra cheesiness on the same level as Skyline.. Except it's in Russia and the electrical aliens are invisible. they're not much to look at either.
SPOILER: show
Just shapeless, black coppered armored spiked rotating spheres with a tiny face with red eyes that look like the black dragon in that pixar anime How to train your dragon.


I don't know.. The ending just screams for another sequel like Skyline. Although it had a few funny moments like the Russian fat-ass inventor singing to his fat cat.

6/10.

6/10.

Not much plot to offer about a dead mid-century woman who's out to avenge for her ex-lovers in a hotel. The only other clue you'll get besides the decent boo moments like piano playing by itself and the usual banging and clanging of objects is
SPOILER: show
the mysterious low-toned old man customer who says that he wants to live in a special room that reminded him of the old days in his honeymoon like deja vu and the 2nd half of the movie, there's something NOT RIGHT about that old man


And, the ending, I didn't expect the heroine chick Sara Paxton (who does resemble and talk like Reese Witherspoon)
SPOILER: show
to be killed off by the ghost bride


The unintentional boo moments end up in a brief giggles humor attempt like the annoying Innkeeper Luke who loves to play scary stuff on her. I liked the credits sequence that made it feel like I'm watching a black/white horror old school. Esp. the chapters 1, 2 and epilogue flashscreens. Fairly decent but not great for a late-night scared shitless mood.

And the director of this is the same guy responsible for my 2009 fave, "House of the Devil."

I spit on your grave redux with a "twisted" plot. Except replace the gas station pervert rapists guys to a lovely married couple... Bill Moseley aka Otis Driftwood of Zombie's Firefly family is the scene stealer in this.. And a bonus: Everclear's frontman Art is in this one except he plays a random victim guy..

The twist of the movie.
SPOILER: show
The psychopathic couple are not really married. They're a sicko incestous brother and sister who kidnaps random teenagers and children to be their "adopted offspring" hence the heroine noticing a few stolen items including pics of teens and missing children in the drawers. Btw, the psycho sister is wearing a wig throughout the movie to hide her ugly baldness cos she has cancer.


Another sickening display aside from rape, kidnap, torture stuff with hot water on her mouth, is of course,
SPOILER: show
Forcing the heroine girl to fuck her REAL BROTHER in front of them dressed in a wedding gown while her brother was tied up crucifix position.


I think the motive of their killing spree is to kidnap
SPOILER: show
brothers and sisters of other families and force their belief that INCEST and inbreeding are the new religion?


Even if it's illogical, I liked it. Although the ending almost made burst into tears
SPOILER: show
like when she shoots with a revolver thinking someone is following her in the woods from a distance but instead ends up killing HER FUCKING BROTHER!
WHY THE FUCK DID SHE DO THAT STUPID MOVE!??!?!

And another sad thing is that,
SPOILER: show
She used her father's ashes inside the urn to kill the psychotic sister by shoving it in her mouth yet in the ending she was able to spill her dad's ashes on the Rogue River yes, it's a REAL LOCATION in Oregon.


Another mindfuckery final scene is that the heroine chick
SPOILER: show
GOT FUCKING PREGNANT AFTER ALL THAT FORCED FUCKING ON HER BROTHER by the psychopaths!!


Other than that, I liked the intense suspense scenes reminiscent of Spit on your Grave references anyhow. And Bill Moseley still makes a creepy pedo villain in this one aside from Otis Driftwood..

The trailer even does it justice: Watchable movie.



8/10.

Stereotypical Bond move......he could have shot him when he arrived at the island, when they were having lunch, AND COULD HAVE TURNED AROUND AND SHOT HIM WHEN THEY WERE ABOUT TO DUEL! What the fuck? Seriously? Are Bond bad guys really that stupid? They don't want Bond dead! They just want to lose because they don't like winning.

Patriot Games - I lost interest in this. 2/10

The Change-Up

7/10

Would've preferred to see a little bit more of Reynolds playing his Reynolds character. But still good to see Bateman rocking a Reynolds role

Decent movie but a Stiller movie. Expected more from Eddie Murphey but it was nice to see a good supporting cast.

I loved it. Really good on Timberlake's part. Points for Johnny Galecki. Good story. High rewatch value

Downloaded the blu ray rips a few months ago but never got around to watching them until just now. What a great franchise. Kind of mad I was deprived of this during my childhood.

Haywire - 4.5/5

Short, sweet, another good job by Soderbergh. If you know his work, you know what you're getting into. The guy got a knack taking a sorta kinda nobody and turning him/her into a star. Ms. Carano held her own in this.

aka The Pack. French's version of Wrong Turn meets The Descent cos of the creatures that hide underground yet they rise up like zombies and walk like them too. But in this one, they wear black jumpsuits.. They only come up from the ground when there's lots of blood spilling all over the place just like sharks would do in the water even if the humans are bleeding to death with huge amounts of blood loss.

There's a bit of dirty humor like in Dumb and Dumber. There's one scene where some asshole biker insults the heroine chick, and spits on her coffee drink and SHE FUCKING DRANK IT ALL WITH THE SPIT. Almost had me laughing and spitting out my glass water on that one. Ewww.

Anywho, there's also a reference to High Tension. Why? Well, there's a brief cameo by the old guy who plays the razorblade Killer in High Tension and there's even that dirty heap truck in the movie. Same one used by the killer as well. Except he rides a bike on this one. While the truck is driven by someone else.

I NEVER really get the ending.
SPOILER: show
Why didn't the blind sabertooth crawlers finish off the heroine chick after biting her leg and suddenly we see a brief dream sequence in which she plays the innkeeper which was supposed to be the owner of those crawlers. And then it cut back to the scene where she was waking up hanging upside down with one leg.. And we see burned down small shack attached to the pole.. WTF? Could it be that she's the owner of those creatures and all those incidents were hallucinations?


I dunno. But still, I liked it.. Go see it and skip to the ending and figure out yourself of how that happened anyway.

7/10.

James Dean the biopic starring James Franco - 7/10

I thought Franco does a fantastic job as James Dean and really immersed himself in the role


I felt like alot of stuff was glossed over but overall they did a good job for a made for tv movie

Girl With the Dragon Tattoo remake was ok.. Inferior to the original still, Rooney is fairly decent as Lisbeth. I almost fell asleep too cos of the draggy talkie about the whereabouts of Harriet. The intro of the movie almost felt like a darker version of James Bond.

I find it rare for a remake having a oscar best actress nomination for Rooney Mara.

7/10.

Real Steel - 9/10

Very surprised by this. My expectations were extremely low. I thought it was just going to be some stupid movie where Hollywood has lots of money and they're just gonna blow it....like Transformers. But I was very surprised at lots of things, including the ending.

9/10.

Just came back seeing this. And yeah, it was good.. I feel bad for Andrew though. He was behaving much like Anakin Skywalker betraying his mentor and friend. I love the concept of Andrew's uncontrolled powers when Matt
SPOILER: show
his cousin, senses it through nose bleeding.. Not only that, it even occurs when his friends overuse for their amusement like lifting heavy objects cars, etc.


I love the sky flying style in the 1st person cam view.. It was more exhilirating than a 3-D movie.
It looks like extension TV movie of Heroes. Was good. Andrew is like Anakin Skywalker in this. Love it.
