YellowBrickRoad (2010)
Interesting plot, bad writing and horrible execution
The movie begins with an interesting plot: in 1940 an entire village population left their houses to follow a trail for an unknown reason. Several were found dead, slaughtered, others were never seen again.
Years later, some researchers finally found the trail that was hidden from the public, for some reason.
Then, the movie collapses. The dialog is not interesting (mediocre at its best), the characters lack any background or are poorly interpreted and, due to amateurish writing, the premise is lost. There is no real horror or psychological terror, and in the end no explanation to why the people went there, why they disappeared or what is the yellow brick road.
Any attempt to find some meaning underline, is just wasting time because there is no subtext. They just destroyed what could have been a good movie.
Just want to say that the other guy who reviewed this movie, most belong to the staff of the movie, because giving this movie 10\10 is just wrong. This script should have been worked by professional people, not amateurs. Oh well, anyway, good try, i hope they learned through this (huge) mistake.
2 out of 10.
The Butterfly Effect 3: Revelations (2009)
If you love a good movie, don't search anymore
I rarely review movies, but this ones deserve it. This movie will be certainly forgotten, and i think 90% of the world population doesn't even know it exists. Its an awesome thriller based on time travel with a great story. The acting isn't top notch, but the story is so good and well put together, that you wont stop watching the movie. Story follows Sam, a young guy with a gift: he can go back in time. In his normal life he uses his gift to go back and identify killers, rapists and other perps. But one day he breaks one of his rules: he intervens and thanks to that, he alters time line. Its a really good movie, i can even say, better than the original and way better than the second. Only one complain: those hip hop, rap, i don't know musics, they are awful. Thankfully, they are in the movie like 2 minutes.
Go and watch this movie.

The Happening (2008)
Good and fun movie, and specially, plausible
I never wrote a review here, but I've seen this movie today and the previous reviewer would be drunk when saw this movie. Only talks about bad acting, close up cams.
Plot: amazing, and yet plausible, I've knew this for a long time and see this theory in a movie, made the day.
Actors: they did their parts, i cant complain, not perfect, but still i loved it.
The rest is up to you. See it, decide, i loved it. If you love the genre, you will be amazed.

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
Wow, and I am a lover of medieval and fantasy
I remember going everyday to my clube de video (thats whats its called a house that rents movies here in Portugal) for a chance to rent it. I am a fan and a lover of medieval, magic, and all fantasy things. But this movie is just awful.
The characters have no personality, they are just advancing the plot, Sam and Frodo are obviously the worst characters in all the 3 movies. No charm, no charisma, no nothing. It would have been better to chose other main role actors.
The setting is way to large and open, its like having a big house with no furniture, i have never ever in the all movie enjoyed the environments. They were just lifeless.
The only good points on this movie are the musics and the special effects. This movie is way overrated.
