Crank 2

Chev is shoveled off the ground and has his heart removed and replaced with an electrical one. He needs to get his heart back. That's it. That's the story. I know the first one the story wasn't huge, but at least he was looking for the people behind it and so on and there was more to it.

Crank 2 is a loud and obnoxious movie. Sure there were parts that entertained me, but as a whole I was pretty disappointed by it. It went from one extreme to the next as far as how loud and frenetic can this be. I think because the cunt joke worked in part one so well, they way over used the word in part 2.

The music. It was kind of obnoxious as points. Too loud, although that's what the movie is. I knew this would be what the movie was, but I guess I was just let down because I was expecting better.

Can't complain about Statham or the hot tits of Amy Smart. They were great and feel like a real couple.

The movie was sprinting from scene to scene as fast as it could, but since it there was nothing to it, it felt like a marathon even though it ran only 85 minutes

movies

I've watched a bunch of movies recently. I am not even going to get into them. Majority of them were pretty good. Standout was Sex Drive as a nice raunchy sexy comedy. It was really surprising to me as I didnt really expect it to be so good.

I jut don't really have much time to be doing bad reviews anymore. Been busy doing my own crap, finished the movie, and want to start writing more important things... Like more movies and my TV pilot finally!

So I will leave this active for a bit, then in a month or whenever I feel like it, I will let it disappear into "bolivion" (Mike Tyson reference in respect to his daughter)

See ya!

The Day The Earth Stood Still

Keanu is an alien sent to earth to frighten everybody by wearing a suit and quiet talking.

An impending alien invasion has people scared shitless and scrambling. Of course the US looks like a bunch of ignorant assholes who police the entire universe by making threats that they are the United States and this is our planet. Shut up. The whole planetary policing shit and wondering what people will do if there ever were alien invaders is a mind boggling thought to me. As a matter of fact, in the past month I have been as freaked out and confused as a person can get regarding the entire universe, planets, space and all that. It really makes no sense to me at all, and I realize exactly how insignificant people are in the grand scheme of things. Thats another philosophical blog for another day though.

Back to the movie.

If you've seen the happening, you have a general clue as to what is exactly "happening" in this. Damn ignorant people not knowing how to take care of the planet. It kept me entertained, but overall it is pretty lame. Eat my ass

Quantum of Solace

Daniel Craigs second go round as 007 was entertaining but not the total package like the last one. Still leagues better than most of the other cartoony ones with terrible puns and lame acting. Sorry Pierce Brosnan and Halle Berry, you guys sucked.

Craig and the new version of James Bond is much more intense. He is vicious and more believable as an agent/assassin. The action is a lot more realistic too. Just the story wasn't as good as casino royale. He still bangs hot chicks though which is always good.

The Pineapple Express

Sucks.

Not because of my hatred towards everything Apatow, but stoner "comedies" do nothing for me. This one especially as I think I laughed at about two things. Those things had nothing to do with pot, nothing to do with the main characters, as it was Danny McBride who was the most entertaining part of the movie.

The story is what it is. Pot head witnesses a murder, goes on the run. The action part at the end was pretty good. But all the jokes, all the whole friendship shit, it was lame and boring. As is usually the case with an Apatow production, it is longer than it should be, and it feels it. One thing about the whole friendship deal, it was just like Superbad too, also written by Rogen and his pal Evan whatever his jewish last name is. (of course theres mention of Rogen being Jewish in it too. Guys we get it)

Overall, lame. Dont get it. Dont get the hype. Miss actually funny comedies and not this lame ass shit

Quarantine

This is similar to the Diary of the Dead, but its a news reporter documenting a night with the fire department. There is a call to a building, and some old bitch is going crazy. All hell breaks loose as she starts attacking people, thus transforming them into monsters.

They arent zombies, they are actually infected with rabies, which is what causes the quarantine of the building.

This was surprisingly good for being in the Blair Witch/Cloverfield way of movies. It was crazy to think that this could really happen, and they wouldn't give a shit if you're the pope, if you're quarantined due to disease, you're fucked. It wasn't a generic jump out scare, but more a wow this could happen type deal.

It was cool though. Good gore, good stuff. I liked it.

Fast and Furious

Quick.

If you liked the first one, you'll love this installment. All the originals are back, and this is supposed to take place a little after the first movie, as one of the Tokyo Drift characters is in it, before heading to Tokyo.

Good action, hot chicks, etc. etc. Vin Diesel is portrayed as a beast in it on a mission for revenge. The story is deeper than any of the previous ones, although its not the craziest deal out there. A movie like this, doesnt need it though. Thats why I like it. Highly recommend if you like brainless fun and cool car scenes
