The Hangover Part III (2013)
Good story but lacked comedy, overall very poor!!!
I went into this film feeling optimistic, as I loved the first two films; they were both funny and original. Hangover part 3 on the other hand in not. I don't remember coming out of a comedy, even if its crap, and not laughing at least once. This film felt very long and lacked everything a comedy like this should have. They also ruin the character Alan in this movie, which I thought would have been an impossible job but they managed to do it. He comes over, yes as a retard, but also as an ass and a character that I loved in the first two movies I now dislike in this film. The only good thing about this film was the plot line. I thought the plot was actually stronger than the other two movies and I know I would have enjoyed it a lot more if it had any funny bits at all. Todd Philips brings us a disappointing and humourless ending to his trilogy. This film in my opinion is a waste of time and it is not one I will be watching again.
2.5/5- poor!!!!!
Sinister (2012)
makes the paranormal activities look like dog crap
this film had a lot of hype and I'm a huge horror fan. i thought the paranormal activity movies were okay but now they keep dragging the franchise on and on and i bet number 4 will be dreadful. Insidious i thought was a lot scarier then the paranormal activities and a much better film but it was still the same e thing, jump scares! this i think is cheap horror. so going onto sinister yes this film does have some paranormal activity characteristics and jump scares but this film is also mentally disturbing and unnerving. the film raised the bar for horror films and i don't remember a film being this disturbing. yes it has jump scares but they are a hell of a lot scarier than the jump scares you get in any 21st century horror film. what i most liked about the film is it had elements of old horror where you don't get to actually see the killings and it is left to your imagination. its not quite unique but it is disturbing and very clever. if you are a horror movie fan go and see it please. it should not have been a 15 it should have been an 18 to be honest. the acting is also good in this film especially Hawk's performance. don't expect this to be another paranormal activity because it isn't. its much scarier and gets into your mind much more.i will rate this film 8/10 because the story builds(although quite slow) and it was more disturbing than jumpy which i very much liked. it scared me a lot this film.
Chapter 27 (2007)
Jared Leto's performance is brilliant. the piece in itself is nothing special but is okay
this film is very hard to review. i watched it because i think Jared Leto is a very good actor and i was fascinated by the story of the murder of John Lennon as i have heard of the name Mark David Chapman so many times in my life.. overall this film has very bad reviews but i think people don't like it because the film itself has sympathy for Mark David Chapman. i think that this film was a disturbing and unnerving account of the lead up to John Lennon's death and i thought it was quite good. Jared Leto's performance for me is outstanding in this film and was one of the reasons why i kept my eye on the screen, without Leto this film wouldn't have fascinated me as much. as a piece in itself its pretty good the dialogue is OK and the directing is alright but nothing special.i would possibly see this film again but only because of Leto's performance. if you like Leto see this film. it is quite fascinating but the film is very dark and very disturbing more so than i expected. the film really makes you visualise how this man killed John Lennon and how he was just a complete psychopath. but this film doesn't answer the question why because there is no answer to why John Lennon was murdered. i would rate this film 6.5-7 out of 10. its good but nothing special.
The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
wow! best film of the year! best trilogy ever! best ending ever!best film ever!
saw the Dark Knight Rises the first day it came out and i had huge expectations for it as it was the sequel to the one of the best films ever the Dark Knight and it was the ending to an epic trilogy. knowing that this film is going to end the Nolan series made me sad even before the film had started. this film and Nolan's entire batman franchise is the best trilogy ever and this film as one is amazing probably the best film i have seen. the action is amazing, the acting is awesome and intense, the music is fantastic and the script is superb as all of Nolan's films are. its so damn good this film it even surprised me and no one had higher expectations than i did. everything about this movie is outstanding. Anne Hathaway is sexy and manipulative as cat woman should be, she is definitely the best ever cat woman. Christian Bale is as per usual fantastic. Joseph Gordon Levitt has his best performance i have ever him. Michael Cane is superb in this film and brings a very emotional side to the film one of his ending scenes nearly made me cry.Morgan Freeman is excellent as fox. finally Tom Hardy. he is so brilliant in this film. as his mouth was covered through the entire film he had to use his eyes constantly to express his emotions which he did perfectly. he is at times very intense if you just look at his eyes whilst he is talking. this film is perfect and Nolan completes the best trilogy ever. this film is wow! best film of the year! best trilogy ever! best ending ever!best film ever! i rate The Dark Knight Rises 10/10
Drive (2011)
wow!! this is cool!!!
many people said that this film is fantastic! the best film of the year! others said that the film was boring and slow. so i decided to watch it as most people were talking about it. i have to say its not the most action packed film, and its not supposed to be, but it is absolutely brilliant. it got me gripped from the start. it is hard to find a good film that is relatively short these days. this is 100 minutes and is just outstanding. it is very violent and not what you think it is. i haven't seen many things with Ryan Gosling but in this he is fantastic. i would recommend this film to all movie lovers. my brother didn't want to watch it at first but as he got in to it it is now in his top 10 films. he loved it! i loved it! there is no way you cannot love this film! it is one of the best if not the best film of 2011! if you haven't seen it see it now! i rate this film 9/10 brilliant :D this is a very cool film!!
Cowboys & Aliens (2011)
acting good, weak story
i loved Daniel Craig in this movie, he is cool and witty and slick. he plays an American cowboy in the film and he has got the American accent just right. Harrison ford is also very cool in it and i enjoyed his performance. the other actors in it didn't really stand out to me in this film although some were good. the film itself is OK but not brilliant to be honest i was a bit disappointed because i love most cowboy films. this film was a bad merge i think of true grit and alien which are both very good movies. the story line didn't really grip me until the end but i still came out of the cinema thinking would i see that again i dunno i think there are better films on offer although this is one to see but not brilliant don't expect too much. i give this film a 7/10 because it does have it's good witty moments in it
FIFA 11 (2010)
it's fun but maybe was expecting more!
fifa have been making football games for many years and they have improved a lot since their first fifa game. the graphics are good ,although not the best i have seen, and the game is very fun and addictive if u play football or support a football team, but to me the game play isn't realistic enough and the commentators on the game are not very good or accurate. i would buy this game if u were a football gamer or if you have liked all the other fifa games! i will say though that i have enjoyed the fifa ultimate team and the manager mode. they have also created a gameplay were you can play as the goal keeper which i find fun and amusing but after a while a bit boring. the fifa online is not good enough it takes too long to get into a game! i like the game but maybe i was expecting a bit more it is too similar to fifa 10
The Godfather (1972)
this is my favourite film of all time!
this film is amazing! it if exactly what i was expecting. it won 5 Oscars but i think it deserves more. Al Pacino is amazing in this film and so is Marlon Brando, James Caan,Robert Duvall and Diane Keaton they are all brilliant. this film is a masterpiece! it is violent witty and makes u think. i love Francis Ford Coppola and i think this is his best piece of work. i have seen this film 4 or 4 times now and i am still in love with it. i could watch it a thousand times and it would be better every time i saw it! this film deserves 10/10. it is a must see! if you haven't seen it o now and buy the trilogy or rent it! there are really no words to describe this film it is just so good! my favourite film of all time! this film is outstanding!
