The Exodus Decoded (2006)
Sad day for documentaries
I had to watch this documentary to see for myself. I am no scholar, but I am passionate about ancient history. Especially Egypt and the middle-East.
I have to say I hate when people try to manipulate and change facts to further their own agenda.
This is really badly researched and I am sure some people will believe everything as it is presented in the right way. But sadly full of errors and dating problems.
I suggest you read the Higgaion, the page changed location here is the new link http://theheards.us/chris/?page_id=141 At least read it if you see this documentary as a second opinion.
This is a very sad day when people in our time manipulate facts. A sad day indeed.
Breaking Pointe (2012)
Not bad for a reality show
This show is OK, you get to see a ballet company from the inside, which is interesting enough.
But on the other hand, I don't see any of them surviving one week in the Ballet de l'opéra de Paris or the Royal Ballet. They are not bad dancers, but surely not great ones and sometimes it is a bit awkward to hear big compliments for such dancing.
But to be honest, it is a regional ballet and also a reality show, you can't expect to have an étoile from the ballet de l'opréa de Paris.
If you like ballet and want an inside look in a company why not, if you are in for great ballet dancing I don't think you'll enjoy it as much, watch one of the many documentaries about ballet.
Earthling (2010)
really bad
I guess you could do something with a story like that, but this movie goes nowhere, it is a big mess, I guess it is time movie makers hire real writers again.
When you realize the symbiotes are the actual aliens and you see them you really wonder how they could go into space and how they could build spacecraft, the look like some kind of worms ...
I love science-fiction, and I don't mind the occasional impossibility, but this is taking things way too far, with no real story or structure. I suggest you avoid this movie and watch something else. Watch at your own risks.
Something Borrowed (2011)
Coud have been so much better
I give it 5 because I watched till the end, but if the idea in itself is not a bad one, what a waste of it ... The main thing being how can you be friend with that Darcy girl, anyone with a bit of sense will have kicked her out of his/her life without a second thought ...
I guess some better writing could have saved the day, the acting is mostly fine, apart from the poor Kate Hudson who is over-playing the whole movie, very bad acting from her.
I guess if you like romantic comedies it is still watchable, but there are so many better movies around that I think one can pass that one.
I never read the novel so I can't tell if the script is worse than the book, but I hope it is.
