Constantine (2005)
darn
i was very excited about this movie when i saw the trailer. i imagined an epic, with amazing battles and story, but all i got was some half assed movie with poor dialog, bad acting on the part of Keanu, and a bunch of plot holes.
Even though i was disappointed with the movie, i do have to say the cgi was grand and well done. the action lacked but the depiction of hell was pretty entertaining to see. most of the movie was poor and uneventful but i must say the last 20 min was worth the 8 bucks. Peter Stormare steals the movie with his absolutely amazing performance as Satan. you forget the rest of the movie after seeing him. his performance was breath taking. all in all the movie should of been better adapted from the comic books, and a little bit more battle scenes would of been better appreciated to cover up keanu's poor acting skills. a recommended download or rent.
The Necro Files (1997)
o boy
i got a copy from the writer of this movie on soulseek. I have to say it is pathetic and just plain painful to watch the two cops act, but i watched the movie as a joke and since it is a homage to august's underground which i happened to have seen it is in my book as an awesome movie. Its quality and everything about it is pretty bad but its entertaining and something to talk about amongst your friends. Reminds me of troma but good stuff. I recommend seeing this under two conditions, if you are bored and need a good laugh, or high, otherwise just let it be. Recommended download for sure. o and the killings are pretty funny. like when the zombie rips the Satan worshipers dick off and stabs someone in the head with it.
The United States of Leland (2003)
catcher in the rye?
i loved catcher in the rye, it happens to be my favorite book. JD salinger, the author of catcher, has the rights to the book and made it so not one person can make a movie about it with his permission.
with that said, heres "united states of Leland." Beautiful movie with much meaning and depth in emotion. but a lot of it reminded me of catcher, almost too much reminded me of catcher. the few stories that Leland told in the movie such as visiting new york and his adventures were very similar to those of holden's in catcher, and the way Leland views people and emotions is also similar to Holden's, they both are simple and true to themselves and others. superior acting credited to don cheadle and Kevin spacy. great editing, all falls together perfectly, and loved the story all together. recommend as a buy or at least a rent. good movie.
the only thing that it does drag at some points but makes up for it in the long run. give it time and appreciate a good movie.
Elephant (2003)
decent
i agree... this movie was well edited together by following everyone that day. there was some minor time errors that make the viewer ask the question "how did they get there that fast" or something like that. The acting wasn't great, but wasn't horrible.
Since i am a high school student this movie hit me at home emotionally. it put me in the mind set of me actually having a shooting in my school, it was a very heavy movie for me to watch.
I say give it sometime and watch it don't quit on it. its better if you watch this movie alone with out distractions. If you are a high schooler you can really associate most of your friends in school now to those characters in the movie.
