I remember seeing the trailer for this film way back in 96 at the cinema. It looked really quite cool and exciting, Reeves was flying high at the time and it boasted some snazzy CGI, talk about deceptive...[more]...

I will admit deep down I have always preferred the Burton Batman's I cannot lie. I think there are two camps for the Batman films and like marmite you either like or dislike them. Lets step into the Nolan universe one last time then shall we...supposedly...[more]...

Though the film satisfied me, you give this film serious critique! I like the alternate perspective you present.

Like you, I'm always gonna prefer the Tim Burton movies for their stylized abstract depictions of Batman's world and unique, imaginative vision. There's just something that makes more sense about taking such a ridiculous premise as a grown man dressing as a giant bat to fight crime, and putting it into a fantasy context as opposed to stark realism. So my predilection is greatly toward the former than the latter, which Nolan has had great success with obviously but you make a good point about trying to have it both ways.

Valid criticisms overall, I share many of the same issues but cast them away and just really enjoy the film for what it is. Totally with ya though, I harken back for more of the dark, gothic fantasy style over the gritty, realistic crime detective stuff.

The Cold Light of Day



Coldlightofdayposter

Directed by: -1
Written by:
Cast:
Studio: Summit Entertainment
Genre: Thriller
Official Site:
Plot:

Review:

Pretty standard affair, pretty standard plot but not quite as bad as many have made it out to be in my humble opinion.

I think one issue here is the fact the cast seem to be daydreaming through the film. Willis just does what he's done for years with that annoying smirk on his face, does he even know he's in a film?. Weaver isn't really the right person for her role as she's clearly too old and hardly menacing, doesn't look capable of shooting people or even running it seems.

The main guy played by Cavill is a big wet let down too really, proves he's no Oscar winning actor by any means. His panicky actions and line spewing is more equivalent of a straight to DVD B-movie action flick, there it would be more acceptable. Everyone else plays standard generic bad guys or shadowy hitmen/special agent types...its all very bland.

The plus points are the action which isn't too bad, the car chases are quite good, looks flashy at night with good lighting. Errr the film title has a nice ring to it, errr kinda funny how everybody is such a crap shot haha and the locations are pretty. Yup that's about it folks.

Review:

Yet another Will Ferrell flick but this one has been kinda overlooked or missed completely in all honesty. A spoof of the classic tacky soap opera genre in a Mexican western setting, in Spanish with English subs right the way through...[more]...

Review:

All the characters are back and all are voiced by the same stars as before so continuity is a go for launch. Starting life as a prequel we get a brief glimpse at the main characters when they were very young in the zoo and how 'Alex' got there...[more]...

Dreamworks hit back with an animated tale about lovable zoo animals trying to escape to the wild. Always one step behind the mighty Pixar this feature seemed to be an attempt to try and combat the ever increasing list of Pixar classics that just kept on coming...[more]...

Its all things Abe at the moment as we've just had this flick and we've now got the upcoming biopic epic. Not to mention the Abe fetish that this has kick started with other low budget horror flicks where Abe fights the undead. When do we seen George Washington kicking werewolf ass...[more]...
