Takashi Miike is one of the most famous directors in Japan. To be precise, he is one of the most famous directors in all of Asia. He has cemented this reputation with often controversial films like The Audition, Ichi the Killer, and Visitor Q. All these movies were eccentric and often very violent. In the case of Visitor Q, there were some very … [Read more...]
At its heart, Battle: Los Angeles is a war movie. It’s about a fight between humanity and the invading aliens hell bent on destroying the human race. We have seen this plot before. It is fairly similar to Independence Day and Skyline. While Independence Day focused on the aerial fights, the Battle: Los Angeles focuses on the ground force’s … [Read more...]
I consider Nicolas Cage to be a great actor. He can do comedy, drama, or action movies without too much problem. You can believe him to be funny, dramatic, or heroic in his past movies. However, he has produced some awful movies lately. Knowing, Next, Wicker Man, Ghost rider, and The Sorcerer’s Apprentice were all pretty bad movies. While … [Read more...]
Once you see Jason Statham on the cast list, you know what type of film you are going to be watching. Mainly, Statham is associated with action movies. I can’t think of single movie that Statham started that didn’t involve some type of violence/action. He has made a great career out of playing a singular type of character in most movies. Even … [Read more...]
The Green Hornet starting Seth Rogan is the remake of the 1960s television series starting Bruce lee and Van Williams as Kato and Green Hornet respectively. The television series itself was based on the popular comic book. With the recent fondness of movies based on comic books, it was inevitable for Green Hornet to be made into a movie. However, … [Read more...]
The combination of Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe has produced some great movies in the past. They seem to like to work with each other as shown by the sheer number of movies they have done together. And, for most part, they have made good solid movies. So, I was fairly excited when Scott and Crowe teamed up once again to make Robin Hood. There … [Read more...]
It is not easy to make a great transition from video games to the big screen. Only handful has made a successful jump from game to movie. The movie industry is littered with awful video game adaptations. We only need to look at Mario Brothers or Street Fighter franchise to see the massive failure attempts. It’s not surprising the movie studios … [Read more...]
Kick-Ass, a comic book adaptation, has received some great reviews and buzz. A lot have compared it to Superbad or any other nerdy-sex comedies to come out of Hollywood in droves. While I’m not denigrating Superbad or other similar films, Kick-Ass is really different film. While it does retain the nerd factor from Superbad, it is mainly an over … [Read more...]
The Good, the bad, the weird is the Korean take on the Sergio Leone’s classic Spaghetti Western, The Good, The Bad and the Ugly. This has to be truly one of few Korean movies to deal with Western subject. Instead of the Wild West, the setting is the 1930s Manchuria. Until recently, Korean films were mostly dramas and melodramas. Only in last … [Read more...]
The remake of the 1981 classic Clash of the Titans retains the overall similar plot and adds the latest visual effects. While the original wasn’t a big success, the story and mythology was ripe for a modern update. The lead actor, Sam Worthington, seems to be in every other movie these days. The success of Avatar has propelled him leading man in … [Read more...]
