Poltergeist (2015)
What a hunk of CRAP!!!
I loved the original, I've must of seen it at least 40 times! I was excited to see a remake UNTIL i saw the trailer then I knew it would be another dud, but I still had to see it.
The acting is HORRIBLE!! Sam Rockwell's performance, if you want to call it as such discredits anything this producer tried to portray, the directing is awful the story has been ruined.
I can't understand how a directory who is investing a large amount of money and effort into a film allows this junk to be release.
The original was realistic, this was utter nonsense. The important segments of the original were overlooked. The kid looks like he came out of a hair salon after we was attacked by a tree. The script was rushed.
Compliance (2012)
Terrible Movie very Unbelievable just Absurd!
This movie is based on "true events' this is s watered down term which really has no baseline.
This movie was so absurd it not only made it very hard to watch but quite frankly BORING! It's hard to judge acting when the plot it so far out there that no matter how good the actors are the script is just unbelievable. Within the 1st min of the "police call" anyone with 10% of a brain would have seen right through this and told the caller to shove it and hang up on them. The fact that about 5 people conversed with this caller and allowed the caller to manipulate them without any evidence or substance leaves the viewer in complete disbelief. If this IS really based on true events. A - all the people involved should be punished for their complete stupidity. B - the victim doesn't deserve any sympathy for being just plain too stupid to know their own rights.
I do NOT recommend this movie!
Carnage (2011)
Boring to say the least. Goof acting BORING plot
Very surprised this got good reviews. And to see it was nominated for Golden Globe awards makes me questions who is behind these award shows. The movie takes place in a small apartment between 2 quarrelling couples who throughout the movie end up quarrelling amongst each other, there really isn't much more to the plot. It almost becomes so dragged on the realism fades. The best part of the movie was the anticipation to see this along with knowing it was over. The acting was good, although the scenes of drunkenness were very questionable seeing as the alcohol content was so little. I also found it very unrealistic that the couples continually kept leaving the apartment yet would be drawn back by more feuds. I definitely would not recommend this.
Insidious (2010)
Very bad Poltergeist Rip Off
I only decided to watch this movie because I like scary movies and IMDb had good reviews on this. What a mistake!!! This movie started off OK - Decent until the cheap rip off of ghost hunters entered the picture then the movie lost all credibility, eg: A distressed family is sharing their horror experience with the ghost hunters in their first interview as one of them is eating what looks like a burrito or wrap, attempting to add some humor or comedy into the picture. The rip off of (Tangina) from Poltergeist was also seen, anyone who has seen the movie Poltergeist will totally see right through this sad attempt. The movie from this point just went on being ridiculous and not scary at all.
I should have known better, "Paranormal Activity and SAW" should tell you enough save your money rent it!
Monsters (2010)
Very Good Movie,
Happily surprised to watch this movie, I had not heard much about this movie but decided to watch it and was happily surprises. The filming was very realistic acting was good and the story line was believable.
The movie was so good I decided to look what others said about it, hence the reason why I am here.
What I found most interesting about this movie is the storyline was realistic and acting fit the story. This wasn't a Blockbuster film filled with explosions where the US saves the planet.
I highly recommend this to any sifi fan easily one of the BEST sifi movies of the year.
The Back-up Plan (2010)
This movie was down right TERRIBLE!
This movie was so bad I made a point of looking up who directed it, because if this movie actually turns a profit, it just shows you with proper advertising and a celebrity you truly can make money out of garbage.
The plot was so bad that in any aspects if you question the realism the movie would fail miserably.
Example Jay-Lo get artificially inseminated and that same day she meets a dude, within the first date she is questioning her insemination (great mother put a lot of thought into this $10,000 procedure) and Within date #2! the dude is in a fully committed relationship with loopy Jay-Lo ready to be a father of her unborn baby with no father, he drops out of school and before you know it he's living with her.
The movie was so bad it became a topic of humor only because it was really that bad, you could criticize every aspect of this horrible money pit. Not only did I feel ripped of watching this, (and I did see this with a free pass), 1.5 hours of my life I will never get back. Even my chic couldn't believe how bad it was. Well It's my turn on the next pick and this time she's going to get it I hear "Martyrs" is a great movie, she's going to think twice before she pulls me into another flick remotely as bad as this.
PS this would have been a "1" if not for the slight glimpse of Jay-Lo in a g-String, and yes I know that was probably a body double.
Gran Torino (2008)
How can this movie get such high ratings??
I was seriously disappointed in this movie. The movie started off with some potential and seemed like it could get a bit interesting but after the movie progressed it just became very unbelievable. The acting for starters was HORRIBLE. Somehow this old man Clint becomes friend with his immigrant neighbour who's cousin is trying to recruit him into a gang. The relationship between clint and this family was completely unbelievable and interaction between the two was so unrealistic it just spoiled the movie. Clint also often threatens this gangs through several gestures all of which these gangsters blow off, their reaction to him is also very unrealistic. This movie is at best a rental.
