The Net 2.0 (2006 Video)

Not as bad as I thought..

[6/10 · 7 March 2008]

When I purchased The NET & "Net 2.0" DVD-box I tought that I'm buying one mediocre movie (1), and one sh*tty movie: "2.0". But thanks to heavens that also "2.0" was better than advertised.

After watching the movie, it was quite entertaining. Nice acting and nice scenery, Of course the theme of the movie was little bit repeating from the original "The Net", but then again.. its permitted, it's "2.0".. and you cant make sequel without repeating the theme of identify theft on sequel, can you? In the end, I Think that this movie is slightly better than first one (not lots of, but barely, see it yourself). Because it's more fresher than 1995 movie.

6/10, don't judge the book by it's covers.

Futurama: Bender's Big Score (2007 Video)

It's time to rejoice!

Well, It's hard to start commenting something so dear.. but I try, I Have always liked Futurama, and when the show was originally canceled I was so sorry about it and felt like what ever the reasons for the cancellation were, they were WRONG, ( Corporate-Bots: More Reality-TV(?) ), or maybe the humor in series were too hard to understand for general public, but when comparing Futurama to other Groenings series like Simpsons, there is no doubt which one is better, Futurama, Simpsons had it's edge like 8 seasons ago but not any more.. anyway for the movie: Ah, The movie.. when the Futurama title song started. I almost felt like crying, because it just was so nice to hear the theme again after two years, very emotional feeling at least for me.

And Oh yeah, They are back!, Fry, Bender, Leela.. list could go on and on, movie featured almost all(?) characters from Futurama series in their nice little came-o roles, and couple new ones, which was nice.. They kinda tickled the original memory about how good the series were.

Movie itself is certified Futurama quality, much better than Simpsons movie (I think), if I compare the movie to the original series, naturally it's not so clever as the some of the single episodes (o really?), but for a comeback, the movie is just perfect. Very nice adaption to the movie format. Its just so nice to hear old familiar voices again.. Hou hou hou.

I'm really looking forward for seeing all the other upcoming Futurama movies and I really wish that after the movies, corporate bots at the box *fox* TV see that they should start doing the original series again..

"The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings", 9 out of 10. And for the end: Bender absolutely Rocks! :)

Live Free or Die Hard (2007)

Way the action should be!

[8/10 · 28 June 2007]

Watched this movie moments ago..

and I have to say that there has never been case where fourth movie in any series could be the very best of it. Usually quality does degrade from title to title, but this time this is not the case.

I really enjoyed this movie. (And Oh boy I really were skeptical about this "4.0" thing) Everybody was doing their parts as actors and actresses (and very well if I may mention). Sound and special effects where top notch. Script was good.

110% Action from start to finish, this is truly the way how action movies should be made.
