Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

This was better than I expected from a Robert Downey Jr. flick. It was actually a pretty nice blend of dark comedy and action. The narration was a bit annoying but a great supporting cast & script overshadow it. All in all, I was pleasently surprised...

H.P. Lovecraft's Necronmicon: Book of the Dead

This movie was essentially 3 short stories rolled into one film. It was decent, but not great. 2 of the stories were pretty cool, 1 was less cool. The budget and average acting left something to be desired but all in all, not terrible...

"Irreversible" 5/10

Maybe the most cruel and unpleasant movie iīve ever watched. Canīt say that i enjoyed it.

The danish tagline, "No one stays the same" couldnīt be more true. Iīm still in some kind of shock...

Though, i must admit that the fire extinguisher scene was amazingly well done.




"Collateral" 8/10

Now THIS is much more pleasant viewing.

I love it when famous actors plays unlikable characters.

Tom Cruise own this movie from beginning to end.





"Marathon Man" 8/10


Iīve only got 1 beef with this one.

Dustin loses his brother and girlfriend and in the end just leaves the briefcase full of diamonds to continue his poor life persuing his life long goal of becomming a marathon runner. WHAT THE FUCK KINDA ENDING IS THAT??!!!!:mad:

high tension - the first part of this movie was excellent, but the later part dragged a little, i figured out the twist b/f it happened and what a twist! 7/10

the hills have eyes (the remake) - i guess i shouldn't have read the reviews and descriptions b/f watching the movie b/c i was a little let down. i was expecting much more "shock cinema." still it was enjoyable from start to finish, w/ a great series towards the end (when the asshole stepson comes for his baby). 7.5/10
