The Avengers (2012)
Fantastic!
I was reluctant to go to see this film (I thought the latest Batman film would be better (it was pants)).
However, apart from being a cinematic treat, the story entertained, too.
The film was a veritable plethora of 'A' list actors, and the action was unceasing.
Truly a great film.
Especially with whats-her-face in the tight gears!!
Unfortunately, the review guidelines require 10 lines. All I can say is 'what a ****ing pain! (that was 'fucking', btw)
The Barrens (2012)
Not very good
Before I watch a film, I tend to check IMDb. Sadly,the negatives always prove right. Especially with 'The Barrens'.
This film had a positive review, but I struggle to see why.
OK, I like a good low-budget film (e.g. Carriers), but this was too much. The director did try to create tension - a teenage daughter, protecting a young child, a possibly errant wife, etc., but it all amounted to nothing.
I found myself second-guessing the dialogue, and the story. After an hour of suffering, I gave up.
A nice try, but try harder.
