Saw
I may have already wrote a little recap for this movie after I saw it in the theatre, but I don't recall so I'm writing another one. Saw is quite possibly the movie that had the most potential, yet failed to deliver. The plot was okay, but somewhat confusing and non-sensical. The gore isn't all that abundant. The twist at the end is absoutely fucking retarded and the acting of the blond guy is just a shade above horrible. When the trailers were running for this movie, I honestly thought it had a shot at making it into my top 10, but after seeing it, it'd be lucky to make my top 200. C-
Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
Well, Dennis Hopper does a good job and the gore is decent, but it went far more comedic than the original and I dont think it paid off well. Aside from Hopper, the acting is mid-grade at best and the plot itself is pretty lame. C
Kung Fu Hustle
Very stylish and quite a bit better than I was expecting. It bills itself as 'Kill Bill meets Looney Toons' so I was expecting something along the lines of Kung-Pow, but this was done MUCH better than that. Now I need to check out Shaolin Soccer. B+
