Mega Shark vs. Kolossus (2015)
Typical Asylum studio fare.
I love the way that Asylum actively promotes recycling by throwing in random clips from U.S. Navy stock footage regardless of whether this or that particular ship has previously been used in this movie. This one has clips of an Iowa-class battleship firing its big guns that I am pretty sure were used in American Warships, as well as the mandatory sinking of a U.S. aircraft carrier using the same special effect that was previously used in American Warships and Age of Ice. We also have the obligatory black actor as the senior Naval officer. No problem there, but will somebody please tell Asylum that Admirals do not tool around in destroyers, and that if you are going to film the Admiral on the bridge in open sea, it would be good not to have trees and land visible out the non-military window of the bridge they are filming on. Three stars for the three drinks you will need to get through this one.
Age of Ice (2014)
"Plan 9 From Outer Space" is no longer the worst movie ever made!
At least Plan 9 is funny! "Age of Ice" is excruciating! We were seriously rooting for two of the main characters to die horrible, excruciating deaths!
Looking at the end credits I saw that some of the work on this film was committed at Historic Fort Wayne in Detroit. I took my draft physical there back in 1969. I can honestly say that turning my head and coughing was much more enjoyable that watching this movie!
Uncredited locations include the scenes shot in some frozen tundra that could have been Saskatchewan in January, and other scenes shot somewhere in the Rocky mountains. These mountains supposedly exist somewhere between the Nile River and the Red Sea. Also present there was a tall dam presumably holding back whatever river connects the Nile Valley with the Red Sea.
Finally, I see that some shills have written good reviews of this movie and given it a 10-star ranking. Do not believe them!
