The Incredible Hulk - Film Review

Posted: December 13th, 2008 | Tags: , , , , | No Comments »

This is a seriously good film and possibly one of the most enjoyable I have seen this year.

Staring Ed Norton and Liv Tyler it follows the story of a Dr. Bruce Banner who is exposed to a seriously high level of gamma radiation causing him to turn into an incredibly awesome monster who likes to smash stuff - what could be better?!

The acting is at a really high level throughout the film and they managed to get a good balance with the amount of special effects.

It’s worth mentioning that this is not a squeal to the atrocious 2003 film HULK which was licensed to bunch of muppets who created a rather poor attempt at a film.

Anyway, this film (The Incredible Hulk) is worth owning and 100% worth watching.


Rambo - Film Review

Posted: December 12th, 2008 | Tags: , , , | No Comments »

Rambo staring Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo is an awesome action film which took very little concentration to watch. That might sound like a strange reason to like a film but I think it’s a good one.

This film was definitely a piece of action genius, however it made some pitiful attempts to include political opinion and even more questionable moral values suggesting as it’s OK to kill sometimes, “When you’re pushed, killing’s as easy as breathing” (Sin City reference?) and “Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call”.

Anyway, I’m glad I bought it - particularly because it was part of 3 for £10 at blockbuster! It’s one to watch.


95 DVDs and Counting

Currently my DVD collection is up to 95 which may not be large by some peoples standards however it’s a start!

While looking through the films I have reviewed so far on this blog I realised that I have only reviewed ones watched at the cinema. I’m therefore going to start working my way through each of the 95 DVDs and trying to write reviews for each of them. I might have to skip a few such as “Hustle & Flow” just because they are a load of cr*p.

My copy of Iron Man Ultimate 2-Disc Edition arrived today! I’m a bit surprised that it didn’t contain a booklet but it still looks cool.
