This felt like a rip off of oceans 8 but with strippers, great cast headed by Jennifer Lopez (who looks great at 50) it had a few laughs ,a great soundtrack ,I wasn't blown away by it it was a little boring but all in all it was a fine film

Just finished watching very predictable horror movie good on the gore should have seen the twist coming but didn't nice cameo from Tom Adkins who's been in serval of these type of movies managed to spot the written of the screen play in a small role. could have been a better horror movie than a Halloween rip off

Busta rhymes kicks michael myers into a shitty remake
Contains spoilers, click to show
After H20, killed of micheal myers, the studio was like we need anethor film. So we got this. Jamie lee curtis gets killed off in thr first 5 minutes, so the next 85 minutes we folllow a jamie lee curtis rip-off, maybe not even that. Anyways what was popular back in 2002, reality t.v. shows, so we get people going into micheal myers house for dangertainment the reality tv show.

Busta rhymes is the best part and the worst part of this film. He kicks micheal myers and sends him off to rob zombie's remake. Which i will review. But this film fans should skip.

Things I liked about Deep Blue Sea 3:
- The good characters are actually surprisingly likable
- It's fishing village setting is a nice change
- That bit where a guy yeets himself off a huge boat straight into the mouth of a shark

Things I didn't like about Deep Blue Sea 3:
- The lack of original LL Cool J songs
- Pretty much everything else.

At least this one has the courtesy to not be a shit rip off of the first one like Deep Blue Sea 2, but it's still a film that would be a chore to sit through more than once.

Hell Fest was hella fun! Hell Fest is the perfect horror movie to kick off the Halloween season. While I was able to really get into it as I was only weeks away from meeting up with my friends in California for some hellish festivities of our own, I really think anyone that watches this movie will feel like it's your friends that you're hanging out and trying to survive with. Get your RIP front of line pass to Hell Fest and prepare for a killer good time.

Very good performance from Joaquin Phoenix (0 more)
Very similar to taxi driver (1 more)
A rip off of, the King of comedy
A great performance from Joaquin Phoenix is not enough to save this movie from being very average. I thought it was too similar to a lot of Martin Scorsese movies from the 70/80s, like Taxi driver and, The king of Comedy. This was a good film but, I felt like I’d seen it all before. I thought this was a bad attempt at replicating better films such as the King of Comedy.
  
You Made Me Realise/Feed Me With Your Kiss by My Bloody Valentine
(0 Ratings)
Album Favorite

"As a band, we had Ecstasy And Wine and we liked that and we had Isn’t Anything? and we liked that, but then the Valentines came out with these two EPs. “We had [You Made Me Realise] hook, line and sinker and we stole everything we could off it. The title song has the noise section and we just took that and stuck it in Drive Blind, although we owned up to it and it became something slightly different when we did it. “The second track on that EP was called Slow and us trying to rip that off kind of became the song Close My Eyes - same speed and the same key and the same kind of beat. The Valentines changed my life because they were the primary influence on Ride."

Percy Jackson's world seems to be a target for weird creatures. Then he discovers why. The old Greek gods are real, and one of them is his father. At times, it does feel like a Harry Potter rip off, but there are some pretty fresh twists as well. I completely enjoyed it. And I discovered I've had one of his mysteries on my shelf for a while now. It's moved up my to be read list.

Liked more than most
I'm usually the first one to rip on the "all CGI with no plot" movies, like my recent viewing of Blade Runner 2049, however, this one won me over.

I started off skeptical and a little confused, but the interesting story keep me going through a mediocre screenplay and so-so acting.


I was entertained enough to recommend especially based on maybe the best CGI I have ever seen. This movie was magnificently beautiful in every way and that made up for some of the average moments.


Easy to recommend.
