GI Joe Movie

Posted by on August 17, 2009 3 comments

Just been to see the GI Joe movie and it’s not to bad if you disengage your brain. Plenty of action and occasional humour.

BUT…

If you do engage your brains you’ll wonder things like…
1 – The plane was just doing 180 turns on the spot so why weren’t the people even dizzy when they got out given they should be unconcious?
2 – Why, when the Baroness lives in France, does she speak to the French people in English? :roll:
3 – Why is the US President English :?
4 – Who the hell would join a military force where all the soldiers are referred to as ‘Joes’ 8O
5 – In a force made up of soldiers from around the world why did nobody ever ask ‘What did he say?’ when the British bloke gave orders with a really strong Cockney accent? :lol:

Still not to bad as brainless movies go and obviously meant to be the first of many or possibly the pilot for a TV series.

Far Cry Movie

Posted by on April 2, 2009 No comments

I’ve just watched the Far Cry movie and I have to say that it wasn’t as bad as some people make out. In fact it’s pretty good. Most people just see that it’s made by Uwe Boll and think it’s going to be rubbish without even watching it just because quite a lot of Uwe Bolls movies are exceptionally dire (Postal anyone?). So what if it doesn’t stick excatly to the script of the game? What movie based on a computer game ever has? And if it had what would be the point in watching it as you’d know the story from the game.

OK I’ll admit the CGI of the helicopter crashing could of been better but I have seen worse. Other than that I was quite impressed. The acting is pretty good all round and the story not only makes sense and keeps to the rough plot of the game but it also doesn’t slow down to the point you’re bored.

So if you’re after a movie that doesn’t require to much brain power then give Far Cry a go.

To all the people on IMDB who rated it low what planet are you on or do yo ujust see the Uwe Boll name and automatically give it a low rating without actually watching it?
