Casino Royale

The film is frustrating in that, the first really big action set piece is sooooooo good - I'm talking white-knuckle good - that the rest of the film feels like it's playing catch-up. ]

Daniel Craig is great.

The dialogue sounds good coming out of Craig's mouth, but everyone else falls flat, so I'm gonna blame the writing.

The Poker scenes are miserably boring...like I'm watching "Poker with the Stars"

...AND this is the bloodiest Bond yet.

I'm a sucker for these so I'm gonna say 7.5/10 as a whole... which by my scale falls between a good time and a great time at the movies:)

Werewolves On Wheels ~ This was actually a pretty good movie for an early 70's b biker/ horror flick. Complete with outlaw bike gang, satanic monks , a naked snake dance preformed by a hot biker mama, drugs, booze, brawls and gore. I was hoping for a gang of biker werewolves terrorizing the country side but didn't get that . Instead it's more of a satanic monk/ biker road trip w/ werewolfism as a symptom......er...movie ...7/10 .

Really not good effects in this one...makes the claymation in the Evil Dead look cutting edge.

I just could not get into, I probably didn't give it much of a chance though as I was blown away by the book and nothing could have live up to that in my eyes then. I should probably give it another watch.

Having said that I would just like to say that this in no way takes away from your resent picture posts. 10/10 :D
