Movie Favorite

"One of my favorites. It’s my two-year-old daughter’s favorite movie. She’s the green gargantua and my other son is the brown one, and she loves being the bad green gargantua. She’s obsessed with it, as I was. I grew up watching Japanese science fiction movies and I particularly, unlike most hard core film people, like dubbed movies — there’s something about that language and the translation that somehow fits into the movie; it’s like a weird poetry. There’s a beauty to these films, the Japanese character designs — there’s a human kind of quality to these things, which I love. Monsters were always the most soulful characters. I don’t know if it’s because the actors were so bad, but the monsters were always the emotional focal point"

I liked the idea for the story--bad-arse rocker looking bodyguard and his "Princess" charge fall in love. Opposites attracting.

I liked Alex--the above said bad-arse rocker looking bodyguard; Mohawk, tattoo's and all. I really don't know how he put up with her at times.

I just wasn't so fond of Sasha--she really was the brat that she was dubbed as for most of the story. The way she acted at times I wanted to smack her or strangle her.

As for the rest...I wasn't expecting that little twist near the end and then I found the ending a little "Ugh".

But if I ignore a lot of what Sasha got up to I liked it.

Not bad
I kept waiting for this movie to start. There was so much backstory and the villain was just dumb. There should have been more Joker and he was absent for most of the film. The other Squad members are just kind of lame. Nice try DCU...better luck next time.

A good read, the sex scenes are super hot, I love the game they play and a cold shower was nearly called for. I'd figured out the bad guys early on which was a bit disappointing and I thought the ending could have been a bit more dramatic. I enjoyed the more that the first one in the series.

A fairly standard Big Finish outing offers very little NEW insight into Hex and Ace, serving up (yet another) war time historical, which seems to be Hex's lot in life. It's not that it's bad, in fact, the lack of any alien/supernatural twist is a bit refreshing. It unspools and then it's over and you think, oh, okay.

So slow and boring waiting for something to happen (1 more)
Really low budget
Shockingly bad
After hearing the hype I thought I'd give this go. What a waste of 80 minutes. Barley anything happens until the final few minutes by which time you'll just want the film to be over.

Loved it
I watched this with a sceptical mind. I was expecting a tongue in cheek portrayal but I was pleasantly surprised. The acting wasn't bad, in fact it was downright great. There was none of the sensationalism that we've come to expect with tv programmes about royalty. I'm now waiting for another season of it!
