Taken (2008)
Didn't like it - too fake
I kept saying "are you f---ing kidding me?" the whole time I was watching this. So it was very distracting and I couldn't enjoy the film because of my exasperations.
Basically, I didn't believe any of what happening. How many bullets were in gun. How you could drive like that without accident. Why a singer would need that much security. I couldn't follow the plot at all. How you can enhance a photo that much.
I only decided to watch it because it was so popular. Couldn't believe it has a rating of 7.9 right now.
Liam Neeson was good in the movie.
And the only factual thing in the movie was probably the street price of the prostitute. I read Vice so I know the street price. 40 is standard.
The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)
This is an awesome film - you guys don't know what you're talking about
First, I haven't written a review on IMDb in years but I must jump in here because of all the horrible reviews. They're wrong. This is a brilliant Spider-Man movie. I thought it was awesome. I loved the original Spider-Man trilogy. And this one is amazing too.
I'm tired of these hardcore comic book guy fans on IMDb being too good for this film and calling it garbage. Look Stan Lee stands by his work. Like any artist, he loves his creation, demands quality, and if he was involved in the production of this movie and signed off on this... it's f-ing good. If the creator okayed it... who are you?
I'm just glad someone took the time to get this movie made. Movies are hard to make. Deals fall apart. And something happened in the movie, unlike some movies where nothing happens. i.e Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1
I'm not going to sit around and let people bad mouth Marc Webb's film just because it didn't match what some had in their heads. It's a different director so it's going to be a different rendition. I read reviews complaining about the music that was used in different scenes and how Peter shouldn't have beat up the guys in the subway. Come on, are you serious? Why don't you go make your own film then. I literally cannot believe how much "don't-you-dare-touch-my- facebook" like people are being with this film. Why don't you complain about how the music wasn't loud enough at 32:49?
Second, this is what I thought about the film. I remember reading the original comics with Gwen in them and watching the TV show with Curt Connors so I was really glad to see these characters on screen. It was really cool. It was a fun, exciting, and moving film. The acting was great. The visuals were super. The story was entertaining. And to all the comic book guy fans out there, of course it's predictable! You've read the comics. It's like reading the spoilers and then complaining the movie sucked because you knew what was going to happen.
Third, I'm annoyed that because of the bad reviews I put off watching this film for almost a year. I don't want other people to make the same mistake. If you like Spider-Man and want to watch a quality movie, this is it. You're going to be entertained and love it. I think it's just as good at Dark Knight and Avengers.
Sincerely,
Taige
Zerophilia (2005)
truly creative, weird, and funny
I was walking down the street when I... anyways I met the director and got tickets to see the world premiere of it at Rebel Fest in Toronto. It should have been in the TIFF, but it didn't meet the deadline.
The movie is "so creative" as my friend put it and I haven't seen anything like that for a long time. Both of us are taking film courses in college.
The premise is the main character has a disease that changes his gender in minutes when he gets turned on. My only complaint is that it's hd quality and not widescreen.
I think most people would enjoy this film's quirky subject, and comedic dialogues. Unlike most films, Zerophila isn't predictable and not conservative. Also there's also some sort of frog motif going on in there.
