I joined Bl.ockbuster On.line about a month ago. How it works is that for $17 bucks a month you can get up to three movies at a time(although they have sent me four movies more than once). You add titles to your "queue", when you send one back, they send you a movie from your list.
I've decide to play DVD critic :) and rate the movies I have recently viewed. Nothing elaborate, just one or two sentences on my thoughts about the movie. A simple A-F rating system, F being the worst A being excellent. Feel free to comment with your thoughts about the movies I've rated. But remember, it's my damn blog and my opinion is really the only one that matters :) Just kidding!
The Scale:
F This ain't shit, don't waste ya time!
D This ain't much better, has one two good parts.
C Aiight! Glad I didn't pay to see it in the theatre!
B Pretty good! I enjoyed it, worth watching.
A Loved it! excellent movie, highly recommend!
Recent Viewings:
Matrix Revolutions [WS] (2003)
C This actually wasn't as good as the first two installations of the Matrix. I think it was kinda thrown together, probably because they filmed two and three at the same time. Gotta love Keanu though, he is "The One"!
Breakin' All the Rules [Special Edition] (2004)
B Only cause Gabrielle is so damn cute!
Soul Plane [Unrated] (2004)
D This is some straight up ghetto shit!
Walking Tall (2004)
C The Rock's fine ass is the only reason why I viewed this one. It's an OK movie.
Never Die Alone (2004)
B I didn't have high expectations for this one. However, I was pleasantly surprised! DMX was great in this one. It was a good story, very original.
Day After Tomorrow [WS] (2004)
C A little far fetched, but pretty good!
Along Came Polly [WS] (2004)
C I'm a Ben Stiller fan but this was lack luster. It was funny tho.
Envy (2004)
F Another Ben Stiller flick. This was long and very stupid, come on Ben!
Collateral [WS] (2004)
D I don't know what all the hype is about on this one. I was truly disappointed! Jamie was ugly in this movie, Jada looked hard and Tom Cruise with the white hair - NO. The entire movie was shot in the dark. I went and took a dump (I know TMI) while it was on. Hated it!
Terminal [WS] (2004)
C This was OK.... Tom Hanks worked that accent! The movie was extremely slow and also displayed how Americans lack compassion and can be so rude to people we don't understand.
Bourne Supremacy [WS] (2004)
D I LOVE Matt Damon! But I did not love this one. Jason Bourne sucked! This movie was rather dark and creeped at a snail's pace, nothing like the first one. I hope this it for the Bourne trilogies.
Human Stain (2003)
B This was great! A must see!
Hero (2002)
F HATED IT!!! Another hyped up movie that I can't understand why? The subtitles flew by, if you blinked you miss two frames. It ain't no Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon!
Duplex (2003
B Ben Stiller again! But this one was funny as hell! Drew Barrymore was funny in this one too. Twist ending, if you want a good laugh check this one out.
Watermelon Woman (1996)
D This is interesting, and not good!
Something's Gotta Give (2003)
B Jack Nicholson and Diane Keeton. I enjoyed this one! Oh and Keanu is in this one! This is a good one to check out.
Man on Fire (2004)
D Not Denzel's best work. The cinematography in this one was interesting - I didn't like it!
hmmm, I think you should make it a habit of sharing with us your ratings of movies. Perhaps we should give Hero another chance????
