Savaged (2013)
Very interesting concept.. pretty bad acting.
I watched Avenged on a DVD with very low hopes considering the reviews on IMDb. I usually do not watch trailers or read long summaries of the plot to avoid spoilers as much as possible. I must say that my strategy paid off quite well because I was not expecting the movie to go where it went. Like any other average horror/thriller movie, you'll find many factual errors but that is acceptable in this genre. My biggest problem with this movie was acting. Sister of the main character was by far the worst actress even though she appeared for mere 2 minutes in the movie, followed by the absolutely useless and unmanly boyfriend. Admittedly, most of the blame for his bad role goes to the writing department because his character could not decide his personality but this doesn't mean that he could act. The lead in the movie was quite good. She does her role some justice.
I recommend it on DVD if you don't have anything great to watch.
Drive-In Horrorshow (2009)
Don't bang your head on table or don't rent it
After reading reviews for this one, i think most of them are written by film crew or their friend and relatives. it is a collection of different short movies, most of them are totally crap. Script was not bad I would say but acting was beyond terrible in all of those movies. The only reasonable one was with a doctor, his acting was bearable. The first short movie "The Pig" shows a guy glued to the bath tub with a glue which seems like made with flour. it is so unrealistic that your five year old will shoot 50 questions at you watching that. Movies are about acting, if you cant act, just give us a break and do something else. I wasted my precious time yesterday when I could watch something better. Please don't waste your time.
I give it 3 just because of storyline
Sniper: Reloaded (2011)
Must watch.... very very good
I was about to write a detailed review on this but Matt-441 said it all... i totally agree with him.... with no super-duper stars, this movie really hits the very best of Genre in recent times... Me, i like movies where i can go inside the screen and be in the movie. I didn't move an inch watching this one...
Script was well written, acting was way above average.. sound effects are key to the sniper movies, sound rocked in this movie!!!... what else?? scenery... it is based in Africa so what not to expect? beautiful views of jungle, Elephants, Rhinos, Giraffes etc... it is worth watching in short...
Troy (2004)
Not the end we wanted
I am not complaining about the direction scenery acting etc, its all about the story. The brave and the finest dies without a reason and a coward immature prince goes away unharmed, thats not justice to the huge money being spent on TROY. The way Brad moved in the movie, it was awesome, Hectar was also impressive all that hurt me is the role of that coward prince named PARRIS. On the other hand film is worth watching. The fog of war, the styles of action, its an awesome war movie. I think Nathan jones had very small part, they could increase his part because he is more than a human being. he is a monster. It is always good to see such a warrior in a movie for longer period of time.
The Family Stone (2005)
What message do you want to convey?
Lot of reviews are about the poster conflict with the movie, they are all 100% right. Secondly i'll avoid commenting on the Gay thing in the movie because there is a probability that few of you may defend that thing so leave that aside despite i did not like that too. The most important thing is the message that is conveyed through this movie. Would you like your younger brothers to fall in love with your wife or girl friend? This is what this movie conveys. It positively portrays the love of younger brother with elder brother's girl friend who is meant to be marrying him in few days. I mean no one in any part of the world would appreciate it. It may create cultural chaos. I recommend you to not to show this movie to your younger ones because it will start a virus in their minds like the dirty text stories about the family does.
The Hitcher (2007)
Surprised with the low rating here
My cable net provider had this movie on server since last six months but i did not download it because of the low rating by the users. I am shocked after watching this film that how can you do in justice to such a decent movie. Not amazing in terms of suspense but still very good movie. acting was good enough. Sean Bean was good as ever. You may pick up the hidden scenes forthcoming but this film is much better than other suspense movies like grim reaper. It would be better if they could show some background of John Ryder because he suddenly appears in the film with no special background covering. I like the way they tried to make the stuff real. It doesn't look far from reality in most of the scenes which makes it a good movie.
Grim Reaper (2007)
Well......... What can i say? Ridiculous?
I am so disappointed but still giving it 3 out of 10. First of all heroine is a stripper who whenever thinks, thinks herself either with her boyfriend on bed or naked in bath. Really disgusting. Story line is not awful but the direction and dialogs are extremely weak. She said "ANYBODY, SOMEBODY, LIAM" Millions of time in this movie and all the time, emotionless. The special effects are so amateur that my 8 year old brother can tell that its funny. And again the whole film was predictable and i presumed before every scene that it was going to happen. So Bad. Grim Reaper is a ghost type creature and when she her her boy friend hide behind crates right in front of the Grim Reaper, the Stupid ghost did not see them. Please Please Please do not see this movie in theater
Exorcist: The Beginning (2004)
Good visual effects but overall not a hit for me
I heard from my friend that the movie has grave in which when dead is buried it comes alive at night. I know it was other movie i mistook. Now about EXORCIST: THE BEGINNING, script wasn't that bad but the Priest (Hero) was shown a bit like superman who isn't scared of anything. He went into the old church at night with courage and no expression of fear on his face and the whole movie went like this. Evil that turned in the Lady (i forgot the name, she is the heroine) was little bit over sexual which was unnecessary really. Effect with kid and the sounds were very good and the scene with Hyenas was great too but overall this movie did not impress me at all.
