so it claims and does look to be true, but too be fair the majority of footage on traces 4.5.6(best of) wouldn't look out of place on Police Camera Action, YBF etc

[Sargento]

Just watched the Sandler comedy

Grown Ups

Great fun on a drizzly Sunday afternoon. Good cast and quick jokes!

Im not really into mondo films.
I watch films to be entertained and real death aint entertaining really
quite morbid and depressing.

just got Virgin media back so i have been watching quite a few films. Here are a few;

Invention of lying; quite enjoyable but only because I like Ricky Gervais

Sorrority Row(aka i know what you did last summer)worth a watch but nothing new

Wrong turn 3; ok but still not as good as the first film

[re.form]

The Expendables ***SPOILERS***

I was slightly disappointed. I wanted a generic, by the numbers, stereotype-ridden, no brain action-movie. I got one, but its still felt flat for some reason. The Arnie-Willis cameo was very odd. You can tell Arnie and Willis were filmed seperatly and they cut it together for the sole reason of having it in the trailer. I could've done without it.

Jet Li. I cannot believe he subjected himself to a role that consisted of patronizing 'little china-man' jokes aimed in his direction. As I said, I expected stereotypes but it still felt kind of weird. The guy is more talented that that - and is a proven headliner of some mindblowing Asian films.

Stallone and Statham's characters were clearly hot for each other. I'm not sure if homo-erotic overtones were intended but they certainly shined through. Not a problem for me, but one can only assume that the reason Stallone was obsessed with going back to the Island for the girl was well, you know - to make him feel more secure in his manhood.

For me, Stone Cold actually was the saving grace for the movie. I enjoyed his scenes the best. He actually stole it with his presence, despite not having that big a role. And thats the bottom line...

[BioZombie]

I had a double bill today of Baby Cart At The River Styx, my favourite of the Lone Wolf & Cub films, and the awesomeness that is John Carpenters Big Trouble In Little China.

The Three Storms in BTILC are obviously heavily inflenced by the Brother of Death in BC&TRS.

I'm consdering watching They Live next.

just finished watching [*REC]2 and i loved it, defo on par with the first film.
between this and The Horde, i would choose this one anyday...

[Sargento]

Just decided to give the following another spin:

The Bogeyman (1980)

Good Lord, I forget just slow it is and the fact that hardly ANYTHING happens in it! Seems to me it was just a way for Lommel to flaunt his Mrs!
