Splinter (Review)

Posted on October 25, 2009 by OGR

This is an entertaining little film that takes one notable and original feature, and shows that you can build an effective horror movie around a reasonably original idea. There are from memory 6 characters in Splinter so needless to say … Continue reading →

Desert Heat (Review)

Posted on October 25, 2009 by OGR

This film sucks on every level. It is so bad that I am sure if JCVD ever made a big film with a huge payday his first act would be to buy every copy of this DVD and burn it. … Continue reading →

The Hard Corps (Review)

Posted on October 24, 2009 by OGR

This is JCVD’s effort to break into another market, the mainstream has obviously eluded him, so here he tries to get into the Tyrese, DMX, gangsta-cred crowd. A black rapper gets out of jail, it looks like he plans to … Continue reading →

Time and Tide (Review)

Posted on October 24, 2009 by OGR

In advance I would like to put in the following disclaimer: I watch a lot of foreign language films, more than almost anyone I know, so I can honestly claim that subtitles and (gosh!) even dubbed films don’t bother me … Continue reading →

Star Trek 2009 (Review)

Posted on October 23, 2009 by OGR

Please keep in mind before reading this, the preamble was written before I went to this flick or heard anything about it. A total Star Trek newbie’s view. We go straight into the action, a ship that looks like a … Continue reading →

Jennifer’s Body (Review)

Posted on October 23, 2009 by OGR

Every guy between 13 and 40 with internet access knows that Megan Fox got her gear off when making this movie, in a media leak that I now firmly believe was deliberately made to drum up press for this movie. … Continue reading →

Wrong Bet / Lionheart (Review)

Posted on October 23, 2009 by OGR

This was Wrong Bet when I watched it, and given that half way through the final fight it is the phrase JCVD spits out to his buddy it is what I know it as.  (The reason it was also called … Continue reading →

Observe and Report (Review)

Posted on October 23, 2009 by OGR

Over only two years Seth Rogen has come up from a nobody to one of the “it” guys in the movie industry, (I left out 40 Year Old Virgin as he is very good in it but it by no … Continue reading →

Nowhere to Run (Review)

Posted on October 22, 2009 by OGR

This was smack dab in the middle of the “let’s try to make him a big star rather than a VHS guy”. All I can say after watching it is that they didn’t try hard enough. In the opening scenes … Continue reading →

The Quest (Review)

Posted on October 21, 2009 by OGR

This is a real JCVD cookie cutter crapathon, must’ve taken 11 minutes to write and about the same to make. JCVD is a 35 year old orphan (!) and quasi-leader of a pack of other (yes younger) orphans. (Are you … Continue reading →
