Starship: Apocalypse (2014)
Watch annoying guy, Barbie, and fat guy do random stuff
That about summarized what's going on in the two movies, I still can't believe I sat through 4 hours of it.
The movies started without any sort of set up at all, you only know people are fighting people, just not who and why. It's only till the end you sorta figure out the premises. Then for the next 4 hours, it's just a collection of seemingly disconnected short scenes, making you thinking "wait, what?" and "what the heck just happened?". Two people would meet suspicious and dislike each other, and 5 minutes later they are all over each other like their lips are made of super magnets.
The acting is not the worst, but not much better. Effects are pretty laughable, but for a low budget movie I suppose it's passable. The props and ship design are straight from the 50's, despite the technology is supposedly able to destroy planets with a single missile. And I couldn't help but to laugh out loud when I see what they used for safety goggles.
I guess if you are really bored and have absolutely nothing else to do, you can watch it.
Garm Wars: The Last Druid (2014)
WTF did I just watch?
The 2 star review is right, there's no beginning, there's no end, there's barely a story. It's more like a showpiece for the CGI studio than a movie. I finished watching it and really had no idea what just happened.
To be fair the effects, model creation, and scores are fantastic, unfortunately too much time is devoted to them instead of actual character/story development.
Apparently the story universe is created by the director/writer just for this movie, I have to say it has good potential, but this movie did not take advantage of it. Hopefully we will see a sequel to better develop it.
Hey, if you are bored on a Saturday night, why not, certainly not the worst movie out there.
Seventh Son (2014)
Big let down, in many ways
I'll start by saying the scenery was nice, there were some funny moments during early parts of the movie, and the girls are pretty.
But that's about it for the good parts. With the big names attached you would think it's a decent movie at least, but no it wasn't. The acting was okay from some, quite wooden from most others. The bad guys were very much on the "meh" side, most of the demon and witches who were supposed to bring end to the world generally acts like thugs with bad temper instead of any real power.
The climax was something special, without spoiling the fun, it's like watching two giants about to pound each other to death, then one of them fell, hit his head on a rock and died.
Watch it only if you are really bored on a Saturday night and has nothing to do, it's a decent time waster but not a good movie.
Spy Game (2001)
The director obviously did not do his homework
This movie is full of errors; the director is either too lazy to do some research, or think viewers are too dumb to realize the error. The movie is set in 1991, but the cityscape in China is more like in 1919. The setting is said in city of Su Zhou, but guards in prison speak Cantonese, their uniform is also wrong. Su Zhou is an inland city, but the satellite claims to be Su Zhou shown a coastline. Finally, I guess a thirty years vet of CIA would know better than make such a move just before US president would visit China.
