Shutter Island

Oh my! Whats This? Another bonus review, Well, yes it is. This is actually 1 of 4 bonus reviews coming out boom, boom, boom. I rented four movies last night, and so far watched 3 out of 4 so ive been busy watching movies.  Here i go.

Shutter island is about a Detective and his partner going to a island to figure out where a missing person is, only to discover there is no missing person and everything is a lie. Yes i really thought this movie was a dream...

Well the plot was short...now my opinions.

This movie was very well done, the acting was very good, the story kept having some weird plot-twists every like 30mins. The Movie was 2hrs and 20mins, so kinda long, but it was not dull and boring quite the opposite. Every actor in the movie did a really really good job and drawing you in and telling a story only to twist it and make you go, WTF did i just watch.

Yes when i got done watching the movie, my mind was still trying to process what i just watched. But i was very impressed with the movie.

I really thought it was going to be a run-in-the-mill horror movie, but it is a weird detective story, the whole thing was just plain weird. The ending of the movie will make you go, WHAT? but it all made perfect sense, well not at first, but once you put all the pieces together then it will.

I was going to see this movie in Theaters, but figured maybe its a rent movie. And it kind of is, but not as well.

This movie is completely worth watching. You will get lost/confused/a little scared/ but mainly confused.

My final score for Shutter Island is a nice 9/10 yes it was that good.

Prince of Persia and The A-Team

Sup everybody, been really busy last week or two. But i did manage to sneak in a movie last weekend sorry i didnt do a review, but it will be up this weekend, well actually two will be up this weekend, first will be The A-Team, should be a pretty good movie, then it will be Prince of persia, was actually pretty decent of a movie, i really enjoyed it.

Then I'm going to do a triple movie review, Will be the Matrix trilogy followed by the Animatrix review aswell. Im going to watch all movies, back to back to back to back, hehe will be a long day.

So, now im going to goto bed as it is 3am, so Till then.

Trailer Park Boys: Countdown To Liquor Day

I must admit, i am a huge fan of the series. I actually just got done watching the last season last week, yes i have the whole boxset! Im just so happy that everybody returned expect a couple, but thats all.

In this movie we find Juilen,Bubbles,Ricky getting out of jail, so the second they do, they rob a store, then someone gets the bright idea to rob a bank at the end, followed by an awesome chase scene, a big gun fight, kitties running free. And of course Mr. Layhe. Even Cyrus is pissed at layhe and decides to get him aswell.

I just love how intense the awesome the ending was, this was made in the same fashion as the TV show, which is perfect. I don't think this movie could have gotten any better.

This is just a little quickey review i didnt plan of going all out for it. But just to sum it up

I give this movie a solid 9/10 for being even better than the TV series, but nothing can replace Trailer Park Boys.

Shrek Forever After

Well, here it is, the final chapter in the Shrek Saga. We all knew it would come to an end, but when? i guess the time was this year.

In this movie we find Shrek kind of fed up with how his life turned out to be, he then finds a creepy little man named Rumpelstiltskin who grants him a new life on how he wants it, after a quick signature, shreks life turns into a new universe, where now the orgre's have come together to make an army, lead by Fiona, Donkey is a now a driver, and Puss in Boots gained a lot of weight.

After shrek realizes he mistake he tries to find Rumpelstiltskin  and reverse it.

This movie kinda felt short, with a run-time of only 90mins. It felt not like a sequel but more of a bridge from the 3rd to 4th to end, which isnt bad, but there could have been more comedy, and action like the other three had, i could tell they almost rushed a little and lacked in a few places.

But since this is shrek it was bound to be funny, since i have loved the Shrek movies since the 1st one, and none of them seem to disappoint. The 4th just lacked a little, but not so much that i wouldn't recommend it, you just have to like Shrek to like the movies.

I'm just the happy the cast came back to reprise the role, and the music was pretty good, gave off a good shrek feel to it.

Before Shrek 4 came out, i heard there was going to be a Shrek 5 as-well, but now the company has tossed the 5th movie, and just kept it the 4th, i want to know why. They could have easily make a 5th one to end or continue the series. We will just never know.

I give Shrek Forever after a nice 7/10 funny/music and story was all pretty good.

Review coming soon _-Robin Hood-_

Halloween 2

Yes, it's remake/sequel time. I'm talking about Halloween 2 no not the 80's version the 2009 version, which i must say was not the greatest sequel ever but at least the different kind of killings are good.

Halloween 2 takes place right after the events of the first movie, leaving the sister shaken and torn that she just supposesdly killed Micheal Myers, But she didnt. Plot: hmmm well again we find Micheal on the search for his sister to either kill her or no, but most likely kill her, as Micheal is on the hunt, the sister is going to major mental problems and is driving her self insane from all the stress of the first movie.

The movie ended really different, not at all how i thought it would end, but i guess it worked. Unfortunately i saw about 4 different horror movies inside of this movie, only with a different killers. Like Micheal's mom telling him what to do, i saw that in Friday the 13th, there's a scene that came straight from the movie Scream. 

I didnt really like the story that much, much of the actors were B list actors that kinda went away. The script was very lame, they could have had a much better re-wright but didn't, all-well to late now.

At least with this movie the killing scenes were different than your standard hack N slash film. The kill shots were more disturbing than anything.

I guess you are a die hard Halloween fan, ( I liked the 1st film to me it was ok ) than i say go ahead and get this movie, to me its just a rent or wait for tv.

My final score for Halloween 2 is 6/10 generic/kinda lame, and weird twist at the end of the movie that didn't really fit the movie.

Next Review Shrek 4

Where the Wild Things Are

Hello all, i didn't think i would put this review up so fast, but i am kinda rushing and bored to.

This movie is about a little kid that is like Bi-Polar with Anger Problems and is very very delusional. He is very very lonely and has no friends and often talks to the fence as if it were a group of people. He then later on gets into a fight with his mom, then runs off to who no where, gets on a boat and sets sail to an island that is quite large, only then to find strange creatures who are also very depressed and think the boy is there king and hope's he will save them and give them love.

Each of the creatures have different personalities much like people. But all are very much sad and lonely even though they have each other. Then the kid tells them to make a massive fort to protect them of all sorts of stuff, and then they get kinda suspicious of him and say he's no king, and after all that, they wish him good luck and he gets back on his boat and goes home, yes I'm purposely missing a lot in the middle.

Anyways, this movie is a lot  darker than i thought it would be. It was very much a depressing movie. But i guess if the kids like it then, they did there job.

The CGI in the movie was pretty impressive for a few moments i thought i was looking at a very large puppet or stuffed animal. I don't think the book was that depressing like the movie, but i don't remember the book that well either, as i was like 2 when my parents read it to me.

All in all this movie wasn't bad, but it could have been a little more up-beat and funny, i know the dirt war thing they played was pretty funny, but that was about it.

I give this movie a 6/10 could have been more up-beat..

Review coming soon -_Halloween 2_-

Paranormal Activity

I have to say that this movie is one of the best scary movie ive seen in years and years. And i loved every minute of this movie.

This movie is about a couple that learns that there house or a certain someone is haunted with a past.  After the boyfriend buys a video camera, they learn the house is slowly becoming more haunted and fucked up in every way day by day.

The ending of this movie was pretty WOW, one of those endings you wouldnt really expect. Pretty dramatic and awesomely scary.

This movie does have some in your face scary moments but it's not one big boom horror. To me its more of a Mental Horror film, or a movie that slowly gets to you and makes you almost crazy. Well that's what my friends said, hehe.


The movie is a big budget film with only 15,000 budget but the film is not one to miss, with its scary sounds and shadows, just brings up some bad memories i had once buried and now surfaced. 

Yes for about a year i lived in a haunted house, i heard voices and saw many shadows, and always felt like i was being watched or had someone right behind me. Sadly its still like that.

Anyways my final score for this movie is a nice 9/10 There could have been more of a script and more ahhh shots, But not bad of a horror movie. The best one ive seen in decades!!

Review coming soon -_Where the Wild Things Are_-

Push

And finally the new review ive said i would put up for almost a week, well here it is.

Push is about a whole bunch of people weather it be 1st generation or 2nd generation or maybe even 3rd generation of people that have powers or gifts or what ever you want to call them. The are being hunted and killed or tested on. All started during WWII when they took people with gifts and put them to work, and shit happens and you get this movie.

Movie revolves around a 2nd generation Mover, that has telekinetic powers that has fled to Tokyo and has been in hiding for years, until now. He soon gets greeted by "Division" a top secret group that started this program and is trying to capture all these people. After he has a little talk with them he then meets a girl, who then tells him what he has to do and they go from there.

Basically going to the bad guy, killing him to get this, trading this for that, and using there powers to get there way.
There are so many people that have weird powers, here they are as best of memory. Movers have telekinetic powers. Watchers can see the future. Pushers can put memories that aren't real in you head to make you think there are but aren't. Bleeders can send out high pitch screams that burst blood vessels so they can kill you.  And so on and so on, they did show you all of the different types there are but they didnt really tell you the proper name.

The Effects in the movie where kinda cheap but not bad. Acting could have been a little better but eh wasnt that bad. I just wished they had someone better than Dakota Fanning to me she is an over actor and can be replaced really easily.

This movie did leave it self kinda open for not one but two sequels. I could see them making a part 2 to continue the story, and a prequel to show nothing but back story and go into more details about the ability's. 

This movie wasnt that bad, with a few more action screens and more back-story it could have been even better. But for what it is, its not that bad of a sci-fi action movie.

My final score for Push is 7/10 scrip could have been better and more action scenes isnt a bad thing.

Review coming soon -_Paranormal Activity_-

Daybreakers

Whats this, the other bonus review, yep here it is.

Daybreakers is about an outburst of Vampirism ( yet they never really told how or where the disease came from ) and the human population is less than 5% making the whole world a Vampire world. There's a Vampire Army that captures the remaining humans. Vampire Cops that keep the peace by doing what regular human cops would do, but more worse.

Then we meet Edward Dalton ( Ethan Hawke ) a Scientist that is trying to make a blood substitute so that vampires wont starve to death. Yes he is vampire to. And he also wont drink human blood.

Later on he meets a hand full of human refugees that need his help, so he agrees to help him, and along the way he also discovers a way to reverse the Vampire disease and become Human again. Well i think i said to much, hehe.

This movie does take a lot old school vampire traits but in a somewhat good way, mixed with humor and blood and guts to keep a gore fan occupied, but this movie did lack a certain awesome vampire thing about this movie.

Anyways This movie was worth watching if your a Vampire lover, and just like a new twist on a very old story. The effects were alright. The Story was kinda predictible but there was one pretty big twist in the middle and end that made me go "awesome".

If your in the mood for a vampire movie that doesn't exactly suck with some good acting then rent this movie, it may not be a Buy but at least a rent.

My final score for this movie is 7/10 dorky/cheesy/bloody/ is what i liked but it wasn't my favorite.

Review Coming soon -_Push_-

Leap Year

A Bonus Review? I guess that is what it is, i didnt plan on reviewing this movie. But what the hell might as well, Push will be out this weekend. This is One of Two bonus reviews!..


Anyways Leap Year is a about a girl that has Irish background and decides to surpirse her soon to be husband in Ireland and propose to him.  Yes not him proposing to her but the other way around all well.

Once she gets to Ireland she ends up getting the worst luck anyone could ever get. People tell her its bad luck to pretty much do anything any day of the week, she doesn't believe it, but happens to actually give her to worst luck.



All of the funny parts from the trailers where within the first 30minutes and the last 1 and 20minutes was like a downhill bad luck parts. But it did keep my attention.


This movie may not be for most people, but if your a fan of the actors in the movie and need a good short laugh then id say at least rent this movie.

For what its worth i give it a 5.5/10 not bad but kinda predictable in most parts.
