D-War

This movie was a complete failure. Korean legends, good graphics, good action, I thought this movie had it all. However, twenty minutes into the film I left the theater and didn't come back. I didn't know if the actors were acting or just staring at the camera. It was a brutal movie to watch and the Korean legend that they portrayed was very dull as well. However, I have to admit that the battle scenes were okay to look at because of the amazing graphics. For those of you who didn't see the movie, it is about a guy who takes a girl called Yeoyijoo, and runs away from mystical giant snakes. These snakes apparently have legions of minions to do their bidding and have enough technology to take down the U.S. military. Thus, once more I stress that this movie was terrible. And if you have to watch it, good luck finishing it.

Kick-A**


Offensive title, hideous wetsuits, crime fighting action, and intense comedy was all this movie had to offer. And I loved it. Every moment of this movie was glorious and hilarious. I strongly believe that this movie will take over the box office and dominate the comedy genre for a really long time. In case you never heard of this movie, it is about an average teenager who decides to play the role of a superhero. The thing that he doesn't know is that there is a crime organization out there who put a large bounty on his head. After a terrible beating by some muggers on his street, he is rushed to the ambulance. Since he does not want to be found in his costume, he tells the doctors to say that he was naked; this leads to the speculation that he's gay. Thus, this is a must watch movie, and I hope you all enjoy watching the movie, "Kick-A**."

Clash of the Titans



Clash of the Titans was a ripoff of James Cameron's Avatar. I guess it had pretty good computer graphics, but the story was terrible and the ends did not match up. I anticipated a dramatic war scene between humans and gods, but instead it showed a gigantic water monster getting killed in a matter of seconds.
For those of you don't know, this movie is about a demigod names Perseus who sets on an epic quest to take on the god of the underworld. He endures on an epic quest with fellow men and embark on a journey of love, fear, and glory. This movie is fulled with fights with monsters such as scorpions and unusual alliances between father and son.

The Truman Show

This week I decided to watch a classic, "The Truman Show". This movie is about a man named Truman, and his daily life at his home in a television set. Starting from the day he was born, Truman was filmed by hidden cameras all over the 'island', and the footage was released to the public. Truman lived like that for over ten thousand days, until he found out that something felt missing in his life. Later after he figures out the terrible truth, he sets out on his quest to wrench himself out of the director's bonds. This movie scared me in some ways more than a lot of horror movies did. The fact of being under inspection under a live cage got be thinking about what it would feel like if my whole life was a lie. Overall, this classic was fun to watch and I highly recommend it to you all.
