Sweet, movie review time. I just saw a couple movies and I figured I would start a thread where I (and anyone else) can review movies they've seen so I know if I want to see it or if it sucks... Let's begin...
Alright, this weekend I saw X-Men 3 and Silent Hill (at the discount theater).
X-Men 3: Good movie. Kind of sucks that it doesn't follow the comic books whatsoever. It's like the writers took the basics of the comic books (ie. characters, settings, etc) and wrote a totally different side-story. There is one really terrible editting mistake that bugged the shizzy out of me and may have dragged the rest of the movie down. The ending definitely left room for another one even though they claimed there would be no more. Not the best X-Men movie (#2) but still really good. Anyone that goes to see it stay for the scene after the credits.
Silent Hill: Shizzy movie, half anyway. It was based on a video game and it looks like they tried to make it look like one, which was kind of distracting. If anyone has played any Resident Evil games then they know how the camera angle jumps around a lot. that's how this movie was. So many different angles and shots kind of screwed it up. The first half was awesome. It was scary, suspenseful and had great effects. Then they tried adding the story and dialogue and it quickly went to crizzap. The dialogue was so bland and stupid that I laughed a few times. Then the effects got worse and the story made little difference. Second half sucked. My suggestion is to rent this movie on DVD, watch the first half, turn it off, and go to bed. You won't sleep. If you watch the second half you won't sleep because you will be so pissed that they made such a good start into such crizzap.
