A bad 'Finding Nemo' rip-off

Posted : 10 years, 2 months ago on 2 February 2014 01:32 (A review of Shark Bait)

'Shark Bait' is one of the worst animated movies ever, it's a bad 'Finding Nemo' rip-off but it looks as ugly as hell, it also rips off a bit of 'The Little Mermaid' and 'Shark Tale'

It's boring and its similarities to 'Finding Nemo' are too much; the beginning is Pi's parents being scooped up in a net, Pi can escape but his parents can't - sounds like 'Finding Nemo', except they can't "keep swimming" because that would be going too far

'Shark Bait' seems like an ugly version of 'Finding Nemo' considering that this underwater set looks like the underwater set in 'Finding Nemo', except it's uglier and is filled with creepy fish

The first bad 'Jaws' sequel

Posted : 10 years, 2 months ago on 2 February 2014 11:08 (A review of Jaws 3)

'Jaws 3' is the first bad 'Jaws' sequel, I wasn't a big fan of 'Jaws 2' but it was a lot better than this, here, it's a very similar plot to the first movie except the shark breaks into Sea World! It was actually worse than I thought it would be!

Not only is it an entirely new cast, but the entire cast are completely unbelievable (Dennis Quaid, Bess Armstrong, Simon MacCorkindale, Louis Gossett Jr, John Putch, Lea Thompson) and the movie gives the title character barely any screen time and when they do, the scenes aren't very scary and the effects are rather poor

Like many sequels, 'Jaws 3' is just terrible and you're probably better off watching 'Jaws' or 'Jaws 2', they're both miles better than this!

A nice surprise but not the best one

Posted : 10 years, 2 months ago on 2 February 2014 08:55 (A review of Batman Forever)

'Batman Forever' was a nice surprise but not the best one in the 'Batman' series, here, they took on a new director Joel Schumacher who replaced Tim Burton, more kid-friendly (the first two were rated 15 while this was rated PG) and a new cast including Val Kilmer, Tommy Lee Jones, Jim Carrey, Nicole Kidman, Chris O'Donnell and Michael Gough that gave some very good performances, but the one that stole the show was Jim Carrey

The action scenes weren't bad at all and like the first two, it looked good, why it got mixed to negative reviews, I don't know because I actually enjoyed it, not as much as the first two but I still liked it, its goodness surprised me!

The same plot but still decent

Posted : 10 years, 3 months ago on 1 February 2014 07:00 (A review of Jaws 2)

'Jaws 2' is the same plot but still decent, the tagline 'Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water...' was a good tagline, the cast (Roy Scheider, Lorraine Gary, Murray Hamilton, Joseph Mascolo, Jeffrey Kramer) were good and although they kept the same plot as 'Jaws' and it's not as scary as the original, it's not bad at all

Scarier, darker and more creative than 'Batman'

Posted : 10 years, 3 months ago on 1 February 2014 11:36 (A review of Batman Returns)

'Batman Returns' is scarier, darker and more creative than 'Batman', did you know that about 90% of sequels are poorly received? Not this one, this one deserved to be a success, better acting, the introduction of Catwoman and a cast including Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken, Michael Gough, 'Batman Returns' is a terrifying awesome masterpiece with epic action scenes and very well designed sets

Please, put a stop to this franchise!

Posted : 10 years, 3 months ago on 1 February 2014 08:39 (A review of Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked)

Honestly, we got crap from 'Alvin and the Chipmunks' and 'Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel' with help from three to six chipmunks but 'Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked' is worse than either of them

Please, put a stop to this franchise! Please, please make it stop! IT'S ALVIN AND THE !?@& CHIPMUNKS! Here, the three chipmunks and the three chipettes try flying a kite and end up on an island, this flick made up ridiculous spoofs of 'Cast Away', a movie that many kids won't be familiar with, pretty much like 'The Cat In The Hat', it's like an adulteration of 'Alvin and the Chipmunks'

They've always been well animated but sadly they've always been annoying, the second sequel also has an overuse of slow-motion (pretty much like 'Battlefield Earth'), Zoe also says at one point "I'll go and get my balls!", just say "I'll go and get the balls that ripped off the movie 'Cast Away'", I wish we'd lost them instead of Wilson, I would like to remember 'Cast Away's Wilson but not 'Chipwrecked's rip-offs

The worst movie in history, 'Disaster Movie' spoofed the chipmunks when it was just the chipmunks, I should pit Disaster Alvin against Normal Alvin to see which one is more annoying now! It would be hard to tolerate but still, it'd be fun to see which group are more annoying!

A disappointment

Posted : 10 years, 3 months ago on 26 January 2014 09:25 (A review of The Muppets)

'The Muppets' was a disappointment in my opinion, it is actually a rather weak plot, they keep many things but don't come up with a lot of new stuff, still there's a pretty good cast (Jason Segel, Amy Adams, Chris Cooper, Rashida Jones, Steve Whitmire, Eric Jacobson) and enough funny scenes and it is far from being a bad movie

This is a sequel?

Posted : 10 years, 3 months ago on 26 January 2014 02:07 (A review of Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel)

This is a sequel? Oh yeah they called it 'Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel' considering that they squeak, well this sequel had some funny slapstick and could've been much better than the first, but thanks to the annoying Chipettes, it's just as bad as its predecessor

Whenever they sing, I want to yank my hair out, if you want to punish your younger kids, send them to bed without dinner, if you want to punish your older kids, show them this and remove:

Alvin playing Wii and throwing the remote into the telly
Dave slipping on a skateboard when Alvin decides to sleep

And that'll be the perfect punishment!

Darker and better looking than the original

Posted : 10 years, 3 months ago on 26 January 2014 01:02 (A review of Terminator 2: Judgment Day)

'Terminator 2: Judgment Day' is just absolute fun to watch, it's darker and better looking than the original!

The effects are just absolutely amazing, although I find many horror movies scary, I don't really scream ('Jurassic Park' for example), but here I did jump a few times, Arnold Schwarzenegger returns as a good and a bad Terminator who have been sent by different companies

They managed to keep the plot spot on and here they changed it ever so slightly and it was just awesome, the supporting cast (Linda Hamilton, Edward Furlong, Robert Patrick, Earl Boen, Joe Morton) gave some very good performances

With 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day', at times you'll scream , at other times, you'll be blown away and at the end, you'll cry, yes I nearly cried at the end, I was still just blown away by the many (often violent) effects

You'll just love it, well acted, rave effects and often violent scenes, you'll just love it!

Scarier and more amazing than the 2005 remake

Posted : 10 years, 3 months ago on 26 January 2014 08:14 (A review of King Kong)

The 1933 horror movie 'King Kong' has been remade a few times as well as 'King Kong Vs. Godzilla' and 'King Kong Lives', a sequel to the 1976 version, this version is rave, it's scarier and more amazing than the 2005 remake

It somehow looks better in black and white, the music is modern (at the time it was made) and (for now), it's one of the 10 best movies ever made, a terrifying, awesome masterpiece!
