Metal Reviews

The Expendables is 10 times better than the shit that was A-Team.

women just don't get it

Yeah, sorry Cara but DevWal's right here. 100 times better.

There was no mention of The expendables being just as good or bad as the A-team. I said much like the A-team, it's mindless action. Mindless action.

Day and Knight - really liked the first half, the second was pretty boring. Tom Cruise was great, though.

no such thing as mindless violence

City Island - Cheesy, but the good kind thanks to great acting and a solid story.

Swimming With Sharks - Kevin Spacey being a mean boss. Not quite as good as I remember, but still good stuff.

Saw the Expendables before I left.

It's basically about as over-the-top and ridiculous as any action movie can get.

I enjoyed it, though.

The Expendables was cool but considering the cast they had the raw materials for an epic, unforgettable action movie that would grow hair on viewers' chests for years to come.

Undisputed III

Holy fuck how was this so good?

I enjoyed this more than The Expendables. The action was on a much smaller scale, as it was mostly just people beating the shit out of each other in a ring, but the fights were filmed with more clarity than anything that was going on in The Expendables, which had too many action-obscuring quick cuts for my liking. Also, Scott Adkins is so goddamn diesel in this movie it's ridiculous. And there were no boring romantic subplots with Cordelia in the movie because it took place in maximum security Russian prisons.

I should probably write about metal more on these metal forums, but I needed a place to rant about this movie.

Yeah, the pressure is on since that little argument in the faces thread.
Sounds like a cool movie btw.

Saw The Eye yesterday. The original, not the American remake with Jessica Alba, which I've also seen. As expected, the original is far better. I should watch more Japanese stuff.

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World is total

you certainly make it hard to like you

Stalker - Andrei Tarkovsky is a genius. There is absolutely nothing compelling in the story, just meaningless philosophical bullshit, but the movie is simply beautiful. Every scene is like the best photo a photo artist can capture, touched by a great painter with a post-apocalyptic mindset. Hard to watch without falling asleep though.

You capture the film in a nutshell! I found Solyaris to have a much more compelling story, which is why I preferred it, even it didn't have quite the same cinematography.

Agreed.

I couldn't believe it was that good before I saw it, either.

Quentin Tarrantino, Kathryn Bigelow, Lee Daniels, James Cameron and Jason Reitman talk about stuff. was interesting

zombie movies

I remember seeing that a long time ago.
Entertaining, had that dude from Pulp Fiction... "Check out the big brain on" Brett.

The Crazies.

Surprisingly entertaining! Some really intense scenes and mostly solid acting. Dumb ending though.
