Well. That was quite a journey. And not to the center of the earth this time. Once more, The Rock showes us he can make a bad fall watchable, dare I say, enjoyable?
I know that this is not really a "good" movie, but dam did I enjoy it. I laughed, I groaned, I shouted at the TV about the sheer "in your face science!" of the logic. And I had a good time doing it.
As bad movies go, this one is a gooden!

Ok
This movie had plenty of potential. But I think it did what so many movies do and didn't give it an actual ending. The acting was decent. The effects and action aren't too bad, either. The story was ok but had a lot of predictable parts and not much in the way of surprise twists. It tried but they didn't come of well. Over all this was not a terrible 'alien invasion' movie. But could've been much better. All in all it's worth a watch if you're bored.

Want to build a snowman It doesn't have to be in one piece
The story of a serial killer in Norway who leaves a snowman outside the house of it's victims. The detective who gets in charge and becomes obsessed with this new case as it refers to other cold cases. The other officer who is on the case has her own reasoning on who is committing this crime but, has a obsession for wrong reason.

Not a bad movie but, figured out who it was pretty fast from certain clues. No a rewatchable movie

Movie Rating
A rather poor, very low budget, comedy horror. It's very gory in places and the effects on the shoe-string budget are pretty good. The first third of the film isn't too bad, introducing some odd characters, a few gory scenes, plenty of B-Movie sillyness and nudity. Once they all get to the cabin though and try and hold out as long as the can it becomes rather boring and by the numbers. Watch only if you like odd B movie horror films or enjoy gore effects.

Surprisingly fun
Went to see the movie today with the kids and was instantly surprised by how not bad it was! Some rather funny references to the original cartoon, without being too corny or annoying. The actress that played Dora did a great job and the supporting cast were entertaining enough. The husband and I were taken by surprised at how much we laughed at certain points. The fact that swiper was real character was a bit too bizarre for me though, it didn't add to the movie and even the kids looked confused.

Movie Favorite

"The last one I picked was another Lugosi film, so yeah, he is in every film I picked. That’s funny. I didn’t even realize it. It’s White Zombie from ’32, which is shortly after Dracula. It’s an amazing movie. I’m pretty sure it’s the first movie to ever use the word “zombie” — to use that in a movie. It takes place in Haiti, and Lugosi runs this sugar mill and the zombies are his workers and stuff. Again, he’s amazing, but the film is — only really bad versions of it existed for so long, so every time you’d watch it, you go like, “Wow, the quality of this movie is horrible. It looks like a cheap movie.” Then later, when people have restored things and find them, it’s a really incredible-looking movie. Again, it seems very primitive, but it looks amazing, and he’s great as always. If you watch some of the leads and you just watch their scenes, you go, “What is this, like a cute little musical comedy?” Then he comes in. Again, not f—ing around."

What lessons did you learn from this story (theme/moral)? What do you think others will learn from it?

i would recommend it to anyone that likes a good action and a good comedy movie. As well as a good superhero (well technically superhero) movie

i would call deadpool a good movie.

2015 | Horror, Mystery
This was an "ok" movie. The acting was a little weak. The cinematography was mediocre. The story was interesting, though. Shot in a "home video" style, which isn't unique, but the story itself was. A couple of teens go visit their grandparents they've never met and a lot of weird stuff happens during that week. There's a good twist to the movie you get about 2/3 into it. Not bad. The ending though, was... off. Like it went from being a "serious" creepy movie to being comedic just for the very last scene. Not sure what they were doing there, but whatever. If you're bored and you have nothing better to do, this one could entertain.

I agree. It isn't one I'd rewatch. My son and I usually have great conversations about movies. For this, all he said was "Meh".
