The Devil's Dozen (2013)
Just enjoy for what it is
Okay first off I would like to say always consider a movies budget. Now of course I know that sometimes you still get good movies from lower financed films.
OK from this point if you have not seen the film This Is A Spoiler!
Okay let's look at the actors first. The only actors I recognize is Omar Gooding which is Cuba Gooding Brother. I also recognize Eric Roberts which is Julia Roberts brother. There is also a couple of other familiar faces. These actors have been in decent films. But they aren't A list actors from a long shot. Keep this in mind. Everyone else is pretty much no names or at least don't stand out among elites. So already that sums up your acting core. And that being said you can't expect much more than just that Again I'm not making excuses but the talent just wasn't there. Now on to the acting. It wasn't excellent , it wasn't horrific. Given for what was available it was decent. Nothing more nothing less. It has comical moments that will keep you chuckling to blend in with the suspense. A lot of people mention that this movie was about killing and having 12 minutes to do so. But I seen a deeper message in fact it mentions in the beginning that they had to kill the person who was the guiltiest. And it seems like no one ever thought about what if they killed the little brunette that kept whining. which turned out to be the main reason. How would that have of affected everyone else's role? Who actually went to heaven and who went to hell?Would you have enough heart to die for the sake of not harming another human being to save yourself? When you see a person, do things always seem as they appear? These are the things you have to ask yourself... I watched the movie about 3 times already , and to be honest I enjoyed it. If you're not afraid of everyday things that make you think, even the little things its at least worth a watch. The Painting in the room revealed many messages...
The Heat (2013)
Me or you should have wrote it
This was like eating a freshly, slightly tough steak with an, nearly inedible taste. And the only reason you won't complain is because you don't want the chef to get mad and cuss without noticing his/her spit particles flying over your dish, while using the F word repeatedly with a daffy duck lisp. And you try and finish it for the sake of the price... Sandra Bullock is noticeably arrogant. Which didn't sit right with me from the jump because I already knew miss McCarthy was going to play the opposite before I even seen her. Although the dual were the stars it seemed everyone else in the movie were funnier than them (which was sad). Because I wanted to see more of the bad guys, family and criminals. Maybe I have it wrong, but never have I heard of a FBI agent partnering up with a cop and go out on journeys together as though there are NO other agents and or cops around to assign with, (if anyone knows better...please, please tell me). Certain things make me question things. Like why is Marlon Wayans in a movie where he is just sitting at a desk? ...How much was he paid for that? And who the HELL designed McCarthy's Attire?! I could have dressed a BUM better WITH HIS OWN WARDROBE! The really bad thing about this movie is it is going to make a lot of money...which makes no sense.
