Rating: 3.5/5 Review: "Machete DVD review" Machete is a bloody entertaining movie. Not sure whether this kind of things happen in Mexico but this manages to be a fun and entertaining ride without anything to be taken seriously. There is blood and there is nudity but no actual sex. The pace is decent with some short action scenes slotted in between. I am fine with the bloody action scenes but the climax is disappointing; the showdown between Danny and Steven. Some jiggling of the swords and one dies. DVD special features- 2/5 There are only two features. One is the deleted scenes (11 minutes) is not bad. There is an extra story plot about Jessica Alba's character's twin sister. And the rest is something extra. The audience track is actually nothing much. I felt that the track is cheering at random scenes other than the killing scenes. When Machete kills some one in an extreme way, the "audience" cheer. Basically, it is useless. It is not even a laughing track...

Rating: 3.8/5 Review: "Drive Angry 3D movie review" This is one of the rare action movies that is actually shot with 3D camera. And it shows the depth between the characters and the backgrounds. The action scenes are also good with most of the scenes almost in front of your face. Drive Angry 3D is pretty fun and 3D makes it a more entertaining ride. The story: Nicolas Cage acts as an angry father chasing a madman who has kidnapped his daughter's baby. From the start, the movie does not really bother to explain in details of what has actually happened, it starts off with a short action scene. Soon, he gets the help of a tough and sexy and pretty waitress acted by hot Amber Heard. The downside is that she shows little skin unlike her other movies. But still she is a feast on the eye. Plus, she is in 3D so I can't really complain. The decent action scenes are cool with many explosions, gun fights and people being blown up. The climax is over-the-top with explosions and g...

Rating: 3.4/5 Review: "Man-Thing DVD review" This is one of the rare Marvel comic adaptions that are violent and mature. The Punisher franchise is one of them too. Although Man-Thing is not as violent as The Punisher, it still has its fair share of gruesome and grisly scenes. Though it is a TV movie, it is not too bad and Man-Thing's CGI which only appears in the last half an hour is okay for a low-budget movie. So what's with the rest of the movie. It kills people but you don't get to see the monster doing the deed. The story is kind of simple, there is a sense of dread and suspense in the swamp. Overall: It is not bad for a TV movie based on the Marvel comic. To say the truth, I am only interested in it because it is based on the comic. DVD special features-2.5/5 There are a handful of deleted scenes (15 minutes). Some of them are extended scenes. A particular extended scene is the cutting of the main characters having sex or tried to. It is weird for the scen...
