Below are my movies of
the week:
April 21
Oblivion (Directed by Joseph Kosinski) Very
interesting futuristic Sci-Fi film. As soon as I thought I figured out the
movie I was thrown for a loop.
2
Fast 2 Furious (Directed by John
Singleton) The second in the series but with only one of the stars from the original.
Still better than the third in the series Tokyo Drift, that one is coming up
soon.
Billy
Madison (Directed by Tamra
Davis) More classic Adam Sandler
April 22
The
Last Stand (Directed by Kim
Ji-woon) A fun action film that reminded me of a cross between SWAT and Walking
Tall. Not pure gold but a movie I wouldn't mind watching again over the years
when it is on cable.
April 24
S.W.A.T. (Directed by Clark Johnson) I have never seen
the TV show but this movie is always fun to watch. Nice action sequences along
with a good cast.
April 25
Iron
Man (Directed by Jon
Favreau) Marvel's Phase One started off on the right foot with Iron Man. RDJ is
Tony Stark!
30
for 30: Elway to Marino
(Directed by KenRodgers) Growing up as a Bronco fan in Colorado I am a fan of
John Elway. Watching this 30 for 30 was interesting because I can't believe
some of the trade possibilities that were out there during the 1983 draft.
Elway for Montana? Elway to the Raiders?
April 26
Pain
& Gain (Directed by Michael
Bay) This movie is based on a true story and it proves that some criminals are
COMPLETE IDIOTS. Movie was a bit stupid early on but by the end it was an
enjoyable movie.
Back
to the Future (Directed by Robert
Zemeckis) Childhood classic that still doesn't get old. Looks amazing on
Blu-Ray!
Star
Trek (Directed by J.J.
Abrams) I was unsure about how they were going to remake this the first time I
saw it but I have to say I really enjoyed it. The alternate time line based on
previous events was a nice touch to re-introduce the characters and their
different personalities, especially Captain Kirk's.
April 27
Beverly
Hills Cop 2 (Directed by Tony Scott)
The last good Beverly Hills Cop movie. Seeing Judge Reinhold's character go
Rambo was hilarious.
The
Losers (Directed by Sylvain
White) I have never read the comic book that this movie is based on but I might
have to. It reminded me of The A-Team but with B & C list actors. It also
has a Pre-Captain America Chris Evans in it.
The
Evil Dead (Directed by Sam
Raimi) This was my first viewing of this movie ever. I don't get all the hype
people still give it to this day. Is it because at the time there was nothing
like it?
Movie
43 (Directed by Peter
Farrelly) From the previews this movie looked like a big bad cluster f*** with
some of the biggest stars in Hollywood. The movie itself is actually broken up
in to a number of short films with different actors in each one. Some of the
short films were bad but there were a few that made me laugh and enjoy the
movie as a whole.
