Kung Pow: Enter the Fist (2002)
this movie is meant to be stupid
this movie is meant to be stupid, well i assume the makers intended it so. personally, i don't mind. this is not the funniest film ever made, but is probably the best kung fu parody i have ever seen. with every raised eyebrow that Steve Oedekerk points at the camera you can tell that this thing is to be taken as seriously as...........something not that serious?! (sorry for not being too imaginative there!!)
it film is full of obvious jokes, and some quite orignal. its interesting to view how they used to old footage and added stuff with cgi, as shown in the credits. i also think the fight with the cow is just mad, good stuff - kids will love it!!
i would urge you to see this, but remember, dont expect anything remotely mature. its a good movie to watch with ur mates. also there is quite alot of jokes u really have to listen to.
all in all, not the best film in the world, but far from being the worst - have u seen Batman & Robin?????
this film is meant to be stupid, get over it u uptight serious people!!
Planet of the Apes (2001)
possibly a spoiler - fantastic adaption of the original
firstly it has to be said that this is not strictly a remake. it approaches the story from a whole new aspect while paying homage to the original movies (not just the first one), for instance look out for a certain Mr Heston saying a few familiar lines! without giving too much away, the setting of the story is not earth. at first i though "no!!!!!! you cant do that!!" but it does eventually fit itself into the original story, as you will realise when you see the ending. also, if anyone can explain the ending to me i would be grateful! tim roth is excellent, u would not know it was him, the makeup is breathtaking as are the special effects and the movements of the apes. this is a strange genre for tim burton to be involved with, but his influences are highly visible! i will watch it again!
The Amazing Spider-Man: Spider-Man (1977)
the one movie i would kill to see again
i haven't seen this movie since i was a kid, but the memories of it are still very strong. One scene that stands out especially is when Peter Parker first puts on his suit and stands in front of a large mirror! I am shocked that the movie has not been made available somewhere for sometime. i only hope that with the release of the new movie that columbia/tristar will also release the amazing spiderman! Please release this soon!!!
