Hatchet II (2010)
I'm disappointed
I became a fan of Adam Green and Hatchet after I saw Hatchet 1. I was so stoked for Hatchet 2 to come out. I literally stalked sites to see if I could watch it since it was pulled out of theaters early. So I came across the movie on YouTube, and started watching it..... I basically wasted an hour of my life. The effects were TERRIBLY done. The blood, bodies, everything about the deaths looked so fake. But I still made myself watch. I admit, a couple times I was like "Holy s**t!" because there's a couple things revealed in it that were left unsaid in the first movie.
Also, it got a couple chuckles out of me. Not laughs. Chuckles. That's another thing that disappointed me because Hatchet 1 was making me laugh left and right, and of course, I was expecting the same thing in the second movie. I like a horror movie to get a few laughs out of me when I watch it.
The acting in Hatchet 2 was okay. Not amazing, but not horrible. The one actor who really caught my eye was Kane Hodder. I've only known him for being a murderer in movies with no emotion when killing, but I had no idea he could be emotional when not playing a killing monster. His role as Mr. Crowley in the flashbacks made me respect him as an actor more.
I'm hoping I'll do the same thing that I did with Hatchet 1 and give Hatchet 2 another chance and fall in love with it (Yes, I hated Hatchet 1 at first because of the ending, but I watched it more and I love it now.) I've heard Green say that there might be a third sequel. I'll consider seeing it if it actually does happen, even though the second one was terrible.
Remember Me (2010)
A definite 'Must-see'
My friend and I went to see this movie when it first came out. I was content with the movie as soon as it started. No cheesy lines/scenes, great acting and perfect emotion, not over-enthusiastic or under-enthusiastic. The ending left me shocked and I was bawling my head off. My friend of 9 years had never seen me cry so hard. Its definitely a must-see. The Twilight Saga does Robert Pattinson no justice. At first, I didn't really like him as an actor. But this movie proved to me that he can act extremely good and he's been one of my favorite actors since. So ignore all that Twilight crap (no offense to fans of Twilight) and go see this, whether you hate Robert Pattinson or not.
