There Will Be Blood

I 100% agree with Razor on that one. There Will Be Blood was amazing.
I watched American Gangster. It was better than I thought it would be. Then I saw half of the shining again, which made me remember why jack N is better than 100% of the actors I have seen since Jack N.
DDL is the fucking man. A true method actor. That is all.Quote:

Another night of trashy entertainment double features for me.
This time I tackled Isaac Florentine's earlier genre works. Man, while his films are trashy in acting, story and location aspects, but DAMN he CAN shoot good fighting action.

What a bizzare movie. I mean what they did was take HK swordsmen film, combine it with Dirty Dozen and add US Navy Seals to get an extremely weird but very entertaining kung-fu film.
Only in this film, Madman Ex Navy seal armed with 2 Russian super Stealth Nukes, his super MA assassins and army of sword and knife wielding henchmen holds the world hostage from the island covered in Methane gas. And it up to his nemesis, a heroic Ex Navy Seal Kung Fu master and his Japanese Samurai girlfriend to travel the world to build his own super team including tough Army Colonel armed with tough attitude and super air gun that shoots acid filled ping pong balls, Bible Quoting Native American Chain Gang Convict who swings a Mean Dog Chain, Double Dagger Aussie Commando minus Crocodile Dundee's Hat and more, and assault the Evil Island :p
Yeah, the story IS THAT BAD. And so it acting. But what really saves this is Action. And what fun and energetic action it is. Lots of weapon combat, staged and shot with care, and something that Big Hollywood can learn from.
Also it features Awesome death for the main baddy. I'll say its balls cuttingly good and then some :p
Highly recommended to the fans of the genre, and good for some great laughs.

This one one was just bad, but still had some entertaining parts, but don't come recommended as the film above.
When the gang of former orphans hit the bank governed by Eeeeeeevil Vietnamese gang, they find themselves hunted by army of evil Asian men (80% of which don't even look Asian) dressed in gray mechanic suits commanded by Eeeevil Leader who loves killing anything that moves with his fucking SCARF. Or curtains, or any other piece of cloth he can get his Eeevil hands on. He also loves listening to Vietnamese Male Singers singing what I am assuming love songs in French.
There is also retarded but mean biker survivalist, who is the former friend of the good gang who now whats THE CUT of the Eeevil Vietnamese fortune.
And how can we forget the Daughter of Legendary Bruce Lee, as tough but abused manager of the Bank, who dreams of Freedom from the Vietnamese Scarf Fiend and jumps at our Hunky Hero when she gets the chance.
But close to the end this masterpiece gives us the ultimate surprise: Italian Arnold !!!! Yes, we get Italian speaking, Cigar Smoking, Body Pumping Mount of he Man bearing great resemblance to our Governator. He also a Former Mob boss, now lliving in desert and renovating the old piece of shit hotel in the middle of nowhere and selling stolen cars to Mexicans.
Our Hero is played by Antonio Sabbato Junior is all hunky, posy and shit to the extreme leader of gang of Complete Retards. He looks ridiculous in every action scene this so called film throws at him. Few other familiar B Actor faces show up, especially in the Bad Guy camp and it was fun pointing them out. Also Amy Smart from Crank, plays another dumb blond here, but this time she is tough, has shotgun and shows no boobies.
The script is bad, acting is worse, production is laughable and I this movie PROVES once and for all that Asian Looking Bad Guys have 100% accuracy deficiency with firearms, as they fire countless rounds into heroes point blank hitting shit, harmless walls and destroying the environment. Also the NOISES everyone make while firing said weapons just need to be heard. That had me rolling on the floor.
Everyone Smokes in this film, almost all the time they are on screen. Cause you know, it makes you look cool and tough. It also makes everyone involved look laughably bad.
What even funnier bullets don't affect furniture or walls. At all. But hey thats a staple of low budget trash now-days.
Cant recommend this one, unless you really do want to see some of the great highlights I had pointed out.
The Mist.
Liked it. LOL sweet ending. And OMG religious nut cases piss me off so much.
watched juno again for the second time.
i liked it a lot better this time around. bateman and garner were the most impressive and the scene where juno and them first meet was absolutely perfect. dialogue, acting, everything. easily the best scene in the film.
being friday I bought the latest rifftrax drm-free short, which will end up giving me goddamn nightmares about ape-kids on bicycles
Saw Forgetting Sarah Marshall last night. Good date movie, crude etc.
A+++ Seller Would Recommend to a friend. Wait that's not right.
It's funny though.
