People are RETARDS for Hatin' this Movie!!
28 February 2012
*** This review may contain spoilers ***

I don't get why the hell are some people ranting like idiots on about this movie, It had no fault in it. But it was kinda lengthy. But going as far and saying that this movie sucks is pure Madness! It gave me lots scares and many moments that I Could not forget.

AND THE ENDING DID NOT SUCK!!!

They've said the Demon can transfer from one person to another in the movie. And the girl's mother had more than one demon inside her. So basically that was the reason the Demon kept jumping from one person to another. It Didn't disappoint me at all. I rate this movie 8.5/10 for the lenghty talking scenes in it. But all in all it was great.

I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS A GOOD SCARE FROM A MOVIE, AND THEY WON"T REGRET IT.

If you "see what I see", Jason is in the entire movie.

Warning: Spoilers
It's true it has it's flaws, but who cares, for me the only flaw here is that Jason's resurrection at the beginning of the film is never revealed, but "Jason Lives" all the time so, it's no surprise that Jason came back from the dead all the time, thanks to this, we've seen him in 11 films(discounting the first due to the fact that his mother was the killer). The beginning was awesome, A sexy chick was about to take a bath when suddenly Jason appears to kill her(Oh Yeah, Jason!), he pursues her through the entire camp, then it's later revealed it was all a trap and the FBI ambush Jason and start to shoot him, seemingly destroying him, but unknown to them, his black heart continues beating, and after Jason's body was sent into the morgue, a doctor finds the heart and starts eating it letting Jason's dark soul to posses him to kill again, he does this several times, until, in the end... JASON GOES TO HELL!!! Bu there is also a surprise ending which i'm not going to tell you, but sets up "Freddy vs. Jason". OK, for some Jason is only in the beginning and in the end, but if you see what I see, then you'll know that Jason is aways in the movie scaring us with scary scenes. We all know him and this is you final chance(?). TO SEE THE ICONIC SERIAL KILLER THAT FOR MORE THAN A DECADE HAS HAUNTED US.

Extremely funny
15 February 2011
From the beginning you can see a lack of a history (it is have an argument, an empty one, but at least you can figure it out that the director tried to reach a point and transmit a message which was over transmitted). Nothing in the movie has a reason to be. The only reason, I guess, is try to be funny and, maybe just maybe, for Franchela's fans, it is. But even they must admit that the movie is a waste of time.

No one in the cast, but Franchela and Araos, know how to be an actor. It is obvious that the intention was to make the entire movie around Franchela, who is a good comic actor, but a whole movie just for him is just too much and at the end is boring. It had been good to give Araos a greater participation in the movie to complement Franchela character, because the few fair moments in the movie are when both characters are together.

The first minutes, when the characters are at the airport, you can think: Well, I know the movie will be awful, but at least will have the same old, always effective, gags that had Argentineans movies 20 years before. But soon after that, when they are at Dominica, the movie becomes an endless repetition of a pointless situation. When you are thinking that the movie can't be worst, then comes the end, which is a proof that never something is bad enough. It is no funny, have no sense, try to be surprising but it is anything else but that, and with the intention to be moralist result in something that I cannot qualify with another word than Awful.

I went to see this movie because my friends are Franchela's fans, but I will never forgive them for the 90 minutes that I lost.

I can honestly say that the best of the movie was the popcorn (which weren't really good actually!) Sorry about my English... thx.

Skyline (2010)
if yo enjoyed Cloverfield, War of the Worlds and Aliens vs. Predator Requiem, yo will truly love this movie too much!!!!!
17 January 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Aliens descend on Los Angeles out of the blue, surround the young casts condo, and prepare to finish them off, then the movie switches to "15 hours earlier". What more import information could we possibly need to know, what the characters exchanged for birthday presents? The switch-up kind of made me want to leave the theater. Instead of wondering, who got what as a housewarming present, I was wondering if the theater would give out a refund 10 minutes into a movie. Guess I'm OK with skipping character development. Skyline picks up quick enough after the reset, I did like the movie. In other films, such as the recent District 9, character isn't really developed - the hero's character is revealed as he's exposed to greater and greater stress.

I should admit that I'm a sucker for these alien invasion movies, I even give Battlefield Earth 8 of 10 stars. Some of the dialogue in Skyline seems a bit off, but at least it's not safe, politically correct or predictable. At times the dialogue is off on purpose. When one of the characters says something like, "we're OK now" you just know something really bad is about to happen. It's almost a cue.

For some Skyline will conjure up images of 9/11. Other's have already taken parts of the movie as a metaphor for rampant consumerism. I felt the attack was a metaphor for the 'illegal alien' invasion of the present day. More specifically, I guess, a replay of the phenomenon of black guys sleeping with a lot (I assume) of white girls. Tragedy after tragedy befall our young heroes and in the end one of the young girls sums it all up by saying, "I hate Los Angeles". In no way is it funny.

There was some infighting among the groups of survivors, perhaps less than in some movies but I felt there was still a bit too much of it. The sympathetic adult our cast befriend has to keep telling one of the young men something like, "Don't bury your head and hope this goes away", "It's real". When the alien machines turn out to be powered by human brains the guy beside me at the theater cringed. He had a valid reaction. White people aren't That smart. The evidence isn't looking too good on that. Besides, brains don't really seem to be what they are after.

At times the movie switches into the mode of fantasy. Some of the American aircraft appear to be models we've never seen before and they have odd sizes and shapes (not sure I've ever rooted for American airplanes this much before). At other times the cast remain remarkably unaffected by the action on screen. It's not even just narrow escapes. Skyline is such an intense movie, and frightening, the fantasy element may help cut down on the tension. I wonder if the disjointed beginning also keeps the movie from being too frightening. When it's revealed we're sort of fighting ourselves it adds even more creepiness and perhaps provides some afterthoughts (of hopelessness) to the experience.

Do we ever actually see the aliens? Did they even bother to land on Earth, or just send army sucking probes here? Why didn't the aliens use robot brains instead of harvesting zombies. Are they tapping into some kind of unknown 'life force'. Is it a matter of invading on a budget? We'll never know unless there's a sequel. Maybe instead of Alien vs Predator, Cloverfield vs Skyline. Both movies are very similar, actually. Maybe both attacks come from the same intelligence. A sequel seems unlikely, though, this movie can be summed up with the words 'we lose'. The main thing going for Skyline (aside from the fear, action and horror) is the ending. The ending is atypical: bleak, realistic, frightening, with again just a touch of fantasy to ease it through.

Thanx

Saw 3D (2010)
8/10
Without words, just WOW
9 January 2011
Let me get one thing straight, whole story and plot in this movie weren't so well done, but I gave it this excellent rating because of big twist at the end. I really hate detective Mark Hoffman, and I hope he won't somehow be released in Saw 8 (of course if there IS Saw 8). He just goes around and kill people like he is Chuck Norris, lol. He has no charm at all, I've always wanted them to kill him. But Dr Lawrence Gordon is a different story, finally someone who is worth of watching this movie (I hated Amanda, too, lol). I really like his character. I was really disappointed about Jill getting killed in this part. It makes no sense..Whole "game" was started by John Cramer, and he loved her most, so this is just stupid. She was positive character to me, it is stupid move to kill her.
