Original Child Bomb (2004)
Asks great questions, but gives no suggestions
I watched this movie as part of a film class a few days ago, and I really enjoyed it. The music really adds a lot, and the narrative line is well thought-out and interesting.
The film is thought-provoking and raises a lot of interesting questions about the worlds nuclear situation, but doesn't give any answers or suggestions as to what we can do about it, which just leaves the audience saying 'yeah, that does suck about those nukes.' Thus, the film doesn't stand to solve anything.
Still, the conversation it will spark with those who watch it will be worth it, and it's a well made film. If you can find it, I strongly recommend it.
Half Past Dead (2002)
Half Past Dead, Not Half Bad
Yea, it was a silly action movie, and Yea you could see every turn a mile before it happened, but thats what you expect when you sit down for this movie. Hell, that's why you bought the ticket!
It's just a fun couple of hours where you know the good guys will win, and the bad guys will get their ultimate comeuppance! Also, Nia Peeples is a Hot Hottie.
Yea Seagal is past his prime, and Yea he's a bit Chunky, but surprisingly Ja Rule does preeety well! It'll make you chuckle at points, and its an enjoyable ride. You wont find a shocking twist ending, or be on the edge of your seat, but its not a bad way to spend a few hours and a couple of bucks
