Saw several movies in the past few days, here are my mini-reviews.
Charlies' Angels: What I expected. Eye candy abound. Found the Dylan/ThinMan terribly amusing.
The Ring: Suitably creepy, and quite disturbing with a few of the themes. Can see why it was so popular.
EQUILIBRIUM: Love the concept. There aren't many movies were people goes around calling each other 'Cleric' where the captial 'C' can be heard. GunKata is just too cool of an idea. The fact that they attempted to give it wacked scientific backing is great.
What surprised me was that the film was actually quite intelligent. I mean it. I think I can write several essays on this film that includes; the impact of post-modernism on society, the improvement of science, the way of Zen, war, and the human identity. Although I wish they had a better budget, and a better choreographer when it came to a few of the fight scenes.
Christian Bale, as always, is terrific, and having Sean Bean in the film was a wonderful bonus.
Eight Legged Freaks: It is a hoot. Laughed all the way through. Although I can safely say that spiders creep me out.

I love Eight Legged Freaks. Watched it twice. The second time was with Neko. You can probably imagine the endless comments :P I got more Japanese horror. Will bring it back so we can watch it. Kekeke. But it can't be at my place.....Or else I won't be able to sleep :P
Ohhh, Japanese Horror. Me want to watch. I only watched the American version of 'The Ring'. I'm sure ak, or someone else will be perfectly happy with hosting a horror night.
As for E.L.F yes it was funny, no I don't really wanna watch it again... and as for horror films... Hmmm... bribe me with something I might join you guys!
Yakuza/Zombie/Samurai horror
Bribery... hmm, hmmm, male characters in horror films wearing tight leather pants?
OHHHHHHH I want to watch Scare Movie too, that and the second one ^_^
I haven't seen the original, but I found the american one rather a let down at the end. It was full of typical shock scenes etc but I walked away from the end of that thinking
".. and the point of all that was???"
I dunno, maybe I'm missing the point of horror movies :P
But definitely, there was no point to the whole thing. I expected an ending with an explanaiton. All I got was half sentences, a lots of implicit explanations, and unsatisfaction at the ending. However, I can see why it was such a big hit with most people. I just don't agree with them ^_^
The point of horror movies is to be scared by them, if that fails then laughing at the really silly bits is acceptable ^^
