Castle (2009–2016)

This is so bad it hurts!

[2/10 · 25 December 2011]

I am utterly shocked to see the positive response generated by thing show among viewers. For the trained eye of a true fan of the genre, this is at most terrible! Details wrong, facts taken straight from the red riding hood story. This is merely a child's play and nothing more! Parents who don't even flinch when they receive notice about their children's death, sociopaths with the personality complexity of the boogie man.

I barely barely made it through the first 3 episodes and the only reason I watched three of them is to see if it is indeed this bad all the time. Well, as they say, give the audience what they want, but if this is what the audience wants, then the educational system is a complete and utter failure. The entire "Castle" story can barely be bought by a child. How, how on God's green Earth does this piece of .... have a constant audience?

Bad Teacher (2011)

Definitely not what you would expect

[3 November 2011]

While Cameron Diaz never quite struck me as an Oscar Award Winner, this has to be the all time low of her performance as an actress. The truth is that her name still manages to sell and the movie made a more than reasonable amount of money, but for the viewer looking for a full and great movie experience, this is something they can skip.

The plot is really shallow and the movie is basically made to make money and I think it is pretty safe to say that it has nothing to do with art. Justin Timberlake might have stepped up a notch with "Friends with Benefits", but this is beneath even him.

The characters are really poor in what concerns the artistic impression, so don't expect this movie to be nominated for an Oscar anytime soon. If you are looking to kill some time in the afternoon, then yes watch this movie, but if you want to see a great movie and truly enjoy it, it's probably in your best interest to skip this one.

Would I watch it again? That is a definite no. I want my money back!

Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)

It is what you would expect. Average!

[3 November 2011]

I really don't know if it's just me, but I found the plot extremely boring and almost fell asleep while watching the movie. Leaving aside the "boring" part, the plot is somewhat purely fictional.

While I am more of a "Watchmen" kind of guy, I really thought I would enjoy this one, but all I got was the bitter taste of disappointment. Also, I found the plot to be quite poor and rather stupid, especially during the moments which you would expect it to be interesting and captivating.

In my opinion, this movie is nothing more than just an average attempt to make money, and nothing more. I can see how the plot attracts its audience, but I also see just what type of audience this movie manages to please. Watching it again? I'd rather do anything else to be honest.

Chick Magnet (2011 Video)

One of the worst movies I have ever seen!

[1/10 · 3 November 2011]

As a movie fan, I like to keep track with all the new movie releases, but 20 minutes into this "thing", I already thrown away the DVD and deleted every memory of ever watching "Chick Magnet". If you consider yourself to be person of exquisite taste in what regards movies, you should definitely skip this one, as it is a complete waste of time. Now I desperately want 20 minutes of my life back. The plot is so simple, so stupid, so shallow and so full of low quality acting that it's not worth watching. If you enjoyed this motion picture, I am really sorry for you. Overall, the movie is an absolute 0, but IMDb forces me to rate it a 1.
