Bend It Like Beckham - (again...one of my favorite movies)

Doomsday

This is the latest directorial effort from Neil Marshall whose previous flicks, Dog Soldiers and The Descent are a couple of my favorite horror movies this decade.

This one isn't a horror movie; it's an homage to the movies Marshall likes. It's a mashup of Escape From New York, Mad Max and 28 Days Later. The plot isn't the least bit original but there's lots of action and gore and never a dull moment.

If you go into it not expecting anything remotely original but just want to be thoroughly entertained, you'll enjoy this one.

Here's one for DB:

There's this Wizard Of Oz remake thing that Zooey Deoihsjlkhfkhwerfa stars in as DG. I don't know what it's called, but we were watching it the other night. I guess it's not really a movie, but it's good otherwise. Some of the lines are very cheezzzzy though.

Her being in it is something that makes me weary of watching it. Her pictures are lovely enough but when I hear her voice and see her facial expressions I am filled with a longing that is both inexplicable and irrational. She is an atctress and not meant for me but I just find her too irrestistable (a reason why I haven't watched Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy in two years despite loving the movie-I may have to wait until I'm in a relationship before I attempt to watch it again). Call it pathetic or creepy, but it is what it is.

I never liked that film, never understood the big deal about it.

Same here. I have recently watched "Shoot 'em Up" and "Alpha Dog" and enjoyed both. Peace.

Futurama: Bender's Game-funny as all get out, unfortunatly, like the last one this doesn't have any contiuation of the Fry and Leela saga. However, from what I understand, the last one will.

Journey To The Center Of The Earth-pretty decent family movie. Brendon Frasier has come a long way since Encino Man.

Im a big fan of Brenden Fraiser I plan to see that

Toho- Would you say Doomsday is good? Ive been curious on seeing that

In The Name Of The King-Bad acting, ususual casting (Burt Reynolds and Ray Liotta do NOT belong in a fantasy film), cheesy dialogue (the term is 'give no quarter' not 'give no quarters'), and totally unorigional, but from what I understand, a lot better than most Uwe Boll movies (thoug I kind of dug Alone In The Dark). For a theatrical release this is a bad movie, but would be pretty decent for a Sci-Fi Channel movie. Still, I wasn't expecting Lord Of The Rings quality or even Eragon quality when I rented it. Despite the bad elements, the action scenes were pretty good as well as the cinematography and at least it killed 2 hours.

Good gore flick but the scenes in the hospital maternity ward were just wrong, WRONG, WROOOOOONNNNGGG!!

It's not original in the least but it sure is entertaining. Gory too if you get the unrated version.

That WIZARD OF OZ thing was a miniseries entitled "Tin Man", I believe.

Oh, and just like Alone In The Dark suprisingly had a Nightwish song, this album had a Blind Guardian song at the end credits.

Yeah, actually like him. He did good in the funny "Bedazzled"...

Live Free or Die Hard - one of the most unrealistic movies I've seen in a while, but entertaining never the less.

Get Smart - not bad for a big screen remake, but the original show was better. I liked how they put so many references to the original show in the movie.

I don't really like him at all as an actor. His facial expressions just make me want to punch him in the face. I can't explain it.
