Below are my movies of
the week:
May 5
The
Rundown (Directed by Peter
Berg) Still one of my favorite movies starring The Rock. Good action and comedy
backed by a strong supporting cast.
May 7
Hansel
& Gretel: Witch Hunters
(Directed by Tommy Wirkola) Yep this movie was just as bad as I thought it
would be. No need to waste your time. Just keep moving, nothing decent to see
here.
May 8
Toy
Story (Directed by John
Lasseter) One thing really stuck out to me when watching this. Towards the end
when Andy and his family are moving to their new house Andy is sitting in the
back seat while his baby sister is sitting in the front seat in her car seat. I
know that is frowned upon now but did they think this was a good idea back in
the 90's?
May 9
Fast
& Furious (Directed by Justin
Lin) After hitting rock bottom with Tokyo Drift the F&F franchise started
turning it around with this one, all it took was getting the original cast back
together.
May 10
The
Lost World: Jurassic Park
(Directed by Steven Spielberg) The dinosaurs just didn't look the same in this
movie. It felt like the budget for them was cut in half from the original
Jurassic Park movie. The story was also lacking a bit in my opinion.
Noobz (Directed by Blake Freeman) Found this on
Netflix and gave it a shot. Not a great movie but it was enjoyable. It focused
on a group of friends that enter a video game competition.
May 11
The
Wraith (Directed by Mike
Marvin) I started talking to a guy about movies at a party a couple friends
were having and he said I needed to watch this movie, which is one of his
favorites. It was a bit ridiculous but I liked the concept. I first thought I
was watching Knight Rider during the opening sequence.
Death
Race 2000 (Directed by Paul
Bartel) This movie is BAD but in a cheesy way. For how much the characters were
supposed to hate one another they sure got along during meals and what I deemed
"Greek Spa Day".
Star Trek: Insurrection (Directed by Jonathan Frakes) Was browsing through Netflix and came across this movie and since I hadn't watched it in a decade I thought I'd give it a shot. It is enjoyable but it was also when the Star Trek moves were in a rapid downhill movement.
