Movie Reviews
(from now on, Im keeping past review scores
below the current movie review.) Also,
reviews are -from now on- based on a 1-10 scale.
TERMINATOR 3 - RISE OF THE MACHINES
Wow. A movie that blows you away
with action, purty girls, action, Arnold, and
action. Some lines that were cheesy, but
inevitable - ya know, 'You are terminated',
etc...
CLAIRE DANES IS THE WORST ACTRESS EVER.
The movie was well done, the acting was creative
and entertaining (cept for Claire Danes).
But about that action... while it was a thrill
ride, I personally prefer kung fu (matrix)
rather than big explosions. Still fun
though.
T3 - R.o.t.M - 8.75 / 10 stars
The Matrix: Reloaded
Not as good as the first one. The
sex/rave/party was a little gratuitous,
even with its plot-related and religious/moral
implications.
Ladies and gents, that was the CON section of my
opinion of this movie. Also, very slight
and occasional flaws in CGI, but really, could
anyone else on the planet do any better? No.
PROs - AMAZING action (the best I have ever
seen). I would pay 3 times as much just to
see all that action, even if the rest of the
movie was terrible. Great acting (with the
occasional exception of Keanu, although I still
think he's perfect for the part.) Great music,
great plot, great cinematography, great
character development, dialogue, and everything
else.
Better yet, it dove so deep (with the
architect's soliloquy) that I was facinated with
the movie and had to be a geek and do all this
research (Greek mytho., the Bible, and comp.
language) to discover a bajillion religious
references, and a complete understanding of the
infinitely complex and intricate workings of the
Matrix plot. For all that detailed
explanation, see my new 'Matrix Explained' page.
Anyhow, the point is that this is an experience
that not many movies these days can even come
close to offering to its viewers.
See this movie, but see the first one, well,
first.
Reloaded - 9.6 stars/ 10 stars
X-Men 2 (X2)
Awesome. Great action, really went furthur into
the intriguing X-Men universe, had really cool
twists and plot devices, and was just
entertaining (also the new characters were
cool.) Didn't leave me with much of an
aftertaste.
X2- 8.5/10 stars
Bruce Almighty
A refreshingly witty Carrey comedy.
Reminded me how funny he was, and how funny he
can make situations. Morgan Freeman as the
Almighty was cool. Not a good movie
otherwise, but very entertaining. That's
what we go to the movies for, right?
Bruce Almighty - 7.6/10 stars
Daredevil
Hot girl. Cool fights. Bad acting.
Bad movie.
I suppose you can see by now that I'm tired of
reviewing this type of film.

Recruit - 7.7/10 stars
Catch me if you Can - 8.9/10 stars
