The Core (2003)
garbage. period.
SPOILERS!!! actually- what would spoil the film is actually watching it.
the sheer magnitude of idiocy boggles the mind. I have never seen a movie that was as much a waste of film as this was. I haven't bothered to see who wrote the screenplay for this flick because I'm afraid I'll never see anything he's attached to. ever. there are so many clichés is this movie it defies imagination.
exhibit a- reluctant unlikely hero who SAVES THE WORLD!!!
exhibit b- team of world- savers who get killed one by one.
exhibit c- unappreciated guy sacrifices life to save above mentioned world. lots and lots of emotional blackmail.
exhibit d- unsure female lead who 'finds herself' thanks to hero. with smooch during moment of danger (why god why???!!???)
exhibit e- geeky hacker dweeb
exhibit f- said dweeb 'hacks the world!" his word not mine.
exhibit g- bad dude sacrifices himself to save the world. glib last words included.
exhibit h- incessant use of 'oh my god??!!?!!'
don't. please don't. please don't see this movie. it sucks.
Escape from L.A. (1996)
snake's back
SNAKE'S BACK!!!!! in the real world, its been almost a generation since snake got out of new york... but some things just don't change... snake's still the meanest baddest dude out there.
i don't know why this film was received as poorly as it was... because it is- quite simply- the greatest movie ever... there has never been any movie ever with so much attitude!
!!!SPOILERS!!!
firstly... if you've seen escape from new york, then you know what's going to happen in this movie... almost. ... but that's not the point... this movie is neither a rip-off nor a remake of the original movie... its just that snake's been updated for the 90's. the ending of the movie is a comment on the dependency on electronics that we are faced with. this movie is intelligence disguised in pure testosterone.
the most amazing thing about this movie is its attitude.... just watch the scene where snake has a gunfight with the bad guy's goons and see what i mean.
