“A fake reputation is all a man has” Tangled Movie Review


The first time I laid eyes on Disney's Tangled, I didn't like it one bit. It had this strained sense of comedy and putting any Pink song over something, especially a Disney film, makes me think that they're trying to be more mature than they should be. I growned and placed a finger blind over my face and probably annoyed the person(s) sitting beside me. Let's just say it was a When Harry Met Sally type of ordeal, both experiences ending in the same conclusion where I get to make out with Meg Ryan and she thinks I'm a pretentious annoying dope.

"Made It!" TRON LEGACY REVIEW


Only this year did I get around to viewing the underrated classic, Tron and it was during a small break between classes did I get enveloped in the simple story of one man in a computerised world trying to get out. We've seen in recent years many different takes on the story of a man in a digitised or conceptualised world and this being either the bane or desire of his existence. From films like The Matrix and Inception come close to the idea of imagination in a fictional universe to a new degree, but Tron Legacy covers the ground in a simpler and a lot more dazzling way.
Don't get me wrong both of the previously mentioned films are still amazing and beautiful to watch, but something a lot of critics have with the story is that the emotional or relationships in the films either seem tacked on or ultimately unnecessary to the overall theme and story, that which we create can destroy us.
WHY GOD WHY?!

"Twilight. It's Better" Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows review



I have only just recently, and by just recently I mean last night, caught up with the Harry Potter films. I stopped reading them when number 5 came out. I can't really remember why, I just remember my parents getting the book for me opening day and I sat down, read it and then I just didn't care as much as I did when the fifth one came out. But when the 7th rolled around I spoiled the crap out of that at High School the Monday after the book came out. Who dies when, how they die, important plot points, I had them all and I was ready to let fire to the slightly pale bastards who had crawled out for the morning just to say "Oh, I've read it twice" or "Oh I totally can't believe she did that" or "I read it in 4 hours", it was as if reading the book had turned into a big dick measuring contest, and now the film is out, I'm sure this morning on Facebook, many people were flounded with status updates at 2:30 or 3 in the morning with, ZOMG HP7P1 DA BEST ONE EVER, well I'm here to not spoil the film for you in any way or to tell you it's DA BEST ONE EVER, I'm here to say, it was pretty good.

"Love, art, blood...flesh and soul of victim" A Serbian Film

For those of you who were smart enough or enjoying your blissful existence, there is a film out there called A Serbian Film. Before you continue with this review, a fairly good litmus test is to view the video below or read this Wiki article, whether or not you actually wanna hear about this film and it's country's context.
WARNING: It is the Red-band trailer...so quite gruesome and sexually explicit.
