Cloned: The Recreator Chronicles (2012)
Not Bad
Pros:
- Not boring -- holds your attention throughout - good acting - interesting plot, some insightful questions - great ending which leaves the possibility for more in the future - john de lancie - beautiful location (although at least one shot was green screened i noticed, a shot on the lake that was very obvious, but thats the only one that comes to mind) - septic tanks - overall pretty well written
Cons:
- wish it was a little bit longer - killed off john de lancie too quick (never a good thing; were used to him being immortal) - a few bad jokes or lines or dialogue that made me cringe
Overall:
- If you're a fan of the genre, add it to your collection or rent it.
23 Minutes to Sunrise (2012)
Cool Movie Kind of Falls Apart
I liked this a lot in the beginning. The acting is well enough, and the whole storyline though it seems like its happened a million times before, is written in an interesting way.
The film grabs you in much the same way "Drive" did with a stand-out track playing over the opening credits as the characters are introduced and Eric Roberts watches like death over a burning car covered in bluish fire, a hue used well throughout the movie.
Things are still interesting in the diner, but it does slow down, and the actor who played Eddie -- his performance isn't too believable.
Things heat up toward the end of the second act and tough decisions are made. I didn't quite get the message. I didn't whether I should be happy for one of the characters or feel let down.
Still -- if you're interested in these types of movies or maybe you're a filmmaker who needs to see how to and how not to keep something interesting when you have only one location -- maybe you wanna see this.
Teenage Bank Heist (2012)
a fun little ride
Well after seeing a lot of 10-star movies lately because of Oscar season, it felt weird seeing one of these movies. but of course this isn't meant to be some mind-blowing thing. Saw it at a party with some friends, didn't think I was going to like it. But it starts off pretty good and teenage girls robbing banks -- hey there's a lot worse, less interesting stuff out there.
Acting wasn't too bad. lots of cheesy lines, but I guess you can say a couple of the actresses made lemonade out of lemons.
I think overall, if you're young and looking for a little popcorn flick, this is a good choice. its not boring, has an interesting plot, and the girls are pretty of course.
