I liked it a lot, I wasn't sure that I would before hand. IT looked amazing, greaqt battle scenes and some creepy villans... I wish this had of been made when I was 8, I would have watched it over and over again.


7.5/10

The Mist

Great creatures, nice special effects, some good acting, and great direction by Frank Darabont. Two problems hurt the film: 1. It was, at times, too slow. I didn't mind it too much since I was into the dialogue. 2. The mix of being both a serious horror film about people trapped and in danger for their lives and the mix of it being a B-movie didn't work out so well. Sure, the creatures looked great, and were pretty freaky. But, it was hard to take the film seriously from that standpoint. I was, more and less, hoping that the creatures would stay in the background. I wanted to have the feeling that you had to use your imagination, instead of just flat out seeing the creatures in the mist. The novella was better, but that comes as no surprise. Still some fun to be had with this movie, if you give it a chance.

3.5/5

Superbad

This was pretty funny. It wasn't the greatest comedy in decades or anything like I had been led to believe but it definately has it's it's moments. My main rgipe with it was that a lot of the dialogue sounded very unnatural. Everything involving McLovin was pure comedy gold though.

I Know Who Killed Me

Wow. I didn't realize that movies this bad got made. This was utterly terrible, and no tin the cheesy enjoyable way either. Very bad acting, ridiculous plot that didn't even attempt to remain logical, overly artsy direction... This was an all around stinker. The only reason I'm not giving it an F is because there were a few cool scenes of gore in there, but they are few and far between.

D






Skinwalkers

This movie sucked too. Maybe it's just me, but I haven't seen a Stephen King film I enjoyed since the Misery and Pet Sematary days. There really wasn't any much gore (which is never a good sign for a werewolf movie) but there was plenty of pistol action between warring clans of werewolves (Also not a good sign.)

I found this story to be rather boring and the characters to be extremely uninteresting. The acting was fine, but the film was a waste of time.

Bug

This was either a very cool movie about a crazy man that successfully gets someone else to believe in his paranoid delusions... OR... It's a very stupid movie about some sort of weird invisible bug that drives a few people crazy. The main problem is that I couldn't tell which because it gets so confusing near the end that it's nearly impossible to figure out.

If I knew for sure that the first scenario stated above was what happened, this would probably make the B Honor Roll, but considering the film was too confusing to even figure out what happened, it'll have to settle for a...

C








Shrek The Third

I found this to be kind of boring and unfunny. Physical comedy in animated films just does absolutely nothing for me except make me yawn. A lot like the first and second films in this franchise, it just seemed to be lacking something. They all have their moments but not anywhere near consistently enough to merit all the praise they receive.

It's alright. The little ones will probably like it.
