Maximum Surge (2003)
It's not even good at being bad !!!
This... it's... this is just... I mean, it's...
Talk about loss for words ! Like many movie fans I suppose, I usually love bad movies, the worse, the better - they can make for great entertainment. But this merciless waste of screen space is not even good at being a bad movie. If you 're into bad movies as alternative entertainment, well - forget about this one. No, really. No, honestly, really. It's so bad-bad it's not even funny.
If you 're reading this because this movie just came on and you 're quickly checking IMDb to see what it's about, and you 're still thinking about actually watching it, please think again : are you sure your socks are all properly matched ? Perhaps now would be a good time to check, and re-match them if necessary. Actually... re-match them anyway.
I 'm struggling to find *something* good about this one. Let's see... OK, the girl ("Elaine"), and the end credits. No, wait - they sucked too. Just the girl then.
Now, where's that "Aaaah! My eyes, my eyes!" vote in IMDb's vote drop-down list...
Earth Girls Are Easy (1988)
Great, mindless fun, perfect after a long day at work !
There's already tons of comments here, so I 'll keep it short: If you 've had a long day at work, if you have many things on your mind, etc., this is the perfect movie to clear your head, while having some mindless, silly yet pure and great fun ! So what if it's like, the b-movie of 80's comedy ? That's actually the best thing about it ! If you 've managed to miss it all these years, do yourself a favor and catch it the next time it's on. Best viewed with your significant other, in your jumpsuit on your couch, over a huge bowl of home-made pop-corn and your favorite drink.
Good, good old fashioned fun !
Internal Affairs (1990)
A dark, atmospheric thriller worth watching more than once
I 'm not going to repeat what others have already said about the plot (read other comments). This film is one of my all-time favorites. Extraordinary, very well directed, and the lead performances are deep, convincing and satisfying. Garcia shines as the self-controlled-but-still-only-human good cop, and Gere excels in one of his few films that prove that, while he apparently prefers to do "easy" films, he is an extremely talented, multi-angled actor. I just wish he chose to show that a bit more often.
Absolutely recommended, a dark, psychological thriller you will enjoy every minute of.
Equilibrium (2002)
a true gem
I caught this movie on TV. I 'd seen the trailer and it already looked good, so I decided to watch it.
I have to say, I was very pleasantly surprised ! This not being a highly advertised, big Hollywood blockbuster action film, I thought it was going to be "ok" at best. But the film is brilliantly executed, with a very good script, a wonderful, dark look that carries the background story very well, and spectacular, original, jaw-dropping action sequences to go with all that, too.
5 minutes into the film I was already hooked. The performances are also excellent, and Christian Bale in particular, in this pre-Batman time, is nothing short of remarkable, in a demanding role of a character developing and transforming throughout the story. The rest of the cast does a wonderful job, too.
All in all, this is one of those "hidden gems" that should not be missed. Very, very impressive.
