Rating: 3.2/5 Review: "The last exorcism DVD review" This has pontential to be a scary and creepy movie but it never lives up to it. The reason is that there are stupid characters that make you not want to care what the hell will happen to them. The exorcism is actually a fraud made by some cheap-ass person who does it for the sake of doing it. When he revealed his plans, I could care less for him to die. He also didn't believe the demon possessing the girl. Until the end. And he finally does something good. The camera man is also annoying. He doesn't respect people's privacy. And for a 1 hour and 22 minutes, the start-up takes almost 30 minutes and the rest is blah. It is only intense for about 15 minutes in the last 30 minutes. DVD special features- 0/5 Barebone DVD. Not even one feature is found. There are no trailers. There is not even a trailer for the movie. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rating: 3.6/5 Review: "The Town DVD review"
Rating: 3.6/5 Review: "Red DVD review" You may think the movie has nothing to do with red but RED actually stands for Retired Extremely Dangerous. Bruce Will is the main character running away from the attack of a mysterious group which is presumely the FBI. He takes a younger woman with him on the journey to stop the FBI and to find the truth why they are targeting on him and his old friends. Sounds like fun. Yep, they get to travel too. Although the story is not as fast paced as I thought, it is still entertaining. I can't call it good as it is actually a simple-minded story. Well, as it is an action movie, it has to contain action scenes. It has a few. There are gun fights and a brutal fist fight between Bruce and Karl. The action scenes are not very impressive but they are good enough to make this an action movie. The runtime of 1 hour and 47 minutes is enough to entertain me but somehow, it feels it could have been a faster ride. The music is barely in the movie but
Quick DVD reviews Rating: 3.3/5 Review: "Man of fire DVD review" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think this is the worst of Tony Scott's movies. It is not about the length of the movie I can't stand the annoying colouring and flashing. Although Tony is famous for the colouring and flashing in his movies and I could stand all of his except this one. This is kind of pure annoying and the flashing actually distracted me from enjoying the movie. Even the short action scenes like the shoot-out in the street are being ruined by non-stop flashing and slow-motion. The reason why this got a rating of above 3 is because this is actually not bad, the pace goes smoothly. I am fine with the 1 hour of bonding with Creasy and Pita. But the last 1 hour and 25 minutes starts to have flashy things that make my eyes tired. DVD special features- 3.4/5 There are a handful of deleted scenes (32 minutes) which are blah. But there are some
Quick DVD reviews Rating: 3.5/5 Review: "The Social Network DVD review" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This movie recieved very positive reviews from critics and audience alike. It has a high percentage of 96 on rotton tomatoes. I wouldn't say I don't like it but I wouldn't say I like it. I just enjoyed it. The drama about the creator of Facebook moves decently with the runtime of 2 hours. The movie switches from lawsuits scenes to how Mark deals with his Facebook to Mark argueing with his best friend. In the end, it is entertaining but I wouldn't say I like it. And Mark is speaking damn fast like a bullet train spewing smart-ass lines. After the movie, I think of him an ass. Not really an ass, but still an ass. DVD special features- 3.5/5 The two-disc edition comes with loads of featurettes. I am surprised that I actually enjoyed watching the long making of (92 minutes) which I thought it would be boring. Ther
Rating: 3.9/5 Review: "Unknown movie review" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This thriller does not disappoint with its fast pace and brutal fistcuffs. The movie opens straight to the point; Dr Martin Harris and his wife have just arrived in Berlin and take a taxi. After they arrive at the hotel, Martin realised his suitcase is missing and he takes another taxi and have it follow the taxi they were in. Soon, the taxi he is in crashed into a river. He goes into coma. He wakes up after a few days and finds that his wife does not recognise him. Another man says that he is Martin Harris. He goes out on a hunt on his stolen identity. Basically, the story goes straight to the point, leaving little time for Martin to actually cry or think properely. The whole movie is intense throughout with twists coming into the way. The final twist may be a bit ridiculous to some. The movie does not actually feature many action scenes. There are
Rating: 3.6/5 Review: "I am number four movie review" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From the director of eagle eye brings you a new action thriller and guess what. It is not as thrilling as the trailer seems to be. I am number four is more of a romance drama with sci-fi and a bit of action. Even the action scenes are few. But still, it makes a entertaining ride with its decently paced story. From start of the movie, the aliens are hunting for number three. After he dies, the next scene shifts to number four who is known as John Smith. Quickly, after an incident, he and his protector are on the run and move into a new city. From there, John meets a girl who happens to be the bully's ex-girlfriend. So many events happen from aliens hunting him, the bully devises a plan for him and John falling in love. And the cool CGI action scenes do not happen until the climax. Throughout the movie, there are very short action sc
