The Pursuit of Happyness
Will Smith stars in his most serious roll to date, accompanied by the debut of his biological son Jaden Smith. Jaden is quiet the little actor and I am sure we will be seeing more of him. Although I have to admit I much prefer Smith in his more typical heroically amusing rolls, I don’t think anyone could have done a better job than he did here. He played a real dad and husband that by end of film was a true hero, without all the flashy spaceships and tailored suites.
This film was based on a true story and successfully pulls on your heart strings. I hadn’t seen so much as a trailer when I sat down to watch this film and was in fact clueless as to what it was about prior to watching it… Read more
Music and Lyrics
Hugh Grant effortlessly brought sexy back in this one of a kind laugh riot! This movie will give you something to joke about at the water cooler for days!
The 80’s pop band the entire film is based around was so ingeniously crafted that you almost remember it like you were there (in a good way, I promise).
Drew Barrymore co-stars with Grant in such a superb match up that you find yourself engulfed in their story. I was briefly saddened at times by mistakes made be either character and then lifted high by the gravity of gestures made to redeem them. Barrymore brings her usual girl next door with just a smidge of crazy to make it interesting….. Read more
Zombie Honeymoon
After reading my “worst movie of all time” review of Wild Seven, Tom would like to share his worst movie of all time:
Grandmother used to say that if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all, dearie–but she also believed my face my get stuck like that and in the healing power of crystals, so I’m going to say some un-nice things about Zombie Honeymoon (2004). Sorry, grandma. Don’t turn in your grave or leave it and make me shoot you in the brainpan… Read more
Little Children
Little children is one of those films that stay with you months after you’ve seen it. It has no pretensions, nothing is glossed over, just a hard, in your face drama about love, perversions and growing up. Each of the characters has a pretty strong role to play and each does it admirably.
I found myself riveted on the screen and nothing could distract me as the story and character development unfolded. Like any film review you don’t want to take anything away from the person yet to see it but I can say it’s one hell of a climax… Read more
Wild Seven
If anyone ever approaches me and asks “Hey Simon, Whats the worst movie of all time?” From this day forth I shall reply; “Thats a good question, The worst movie of all time is a little independent film called Wild Seven”. This is the absolute worst independent movie I have ever seen. Period.
I’m still in shock I managed to sit through all 81 minutes of it. This sham of a crime / drama movie needs to be taken off any shelves and burned in a large open field so the stench of crap doesn’t pollute anything else…. Read more
War
Violence, explosions and gangs, oh my! An FBI Agent (Jason Statham) seeks vengeance on a mysterious assassin known as “Rogue” (Jet Li) who murdered his partner. Going in to see Jet Li & Jason Statham movie I knew exactly what to expect. The plot is very basic but a couple of big twists really stir things up in this one.
Expect to see an awful lot of blood, big Hollywood explosions and even a few ninjas! Jet Li was almost boring to watch this time around, His characters are always the same, his acting is dull and he is incapable of creating any on-screen chemistry with whoever he’s working with. Read more
