BakuRyuu Sentai Abarenjaa!!! and mini-movie reviews

[naanima]

I WANT to SEE THIS!!! Anyone? Anyone? Anyone?! BakuRyuu Sentai Abarenjaa just sound (and looks) too cool. I -really- want to see this. The costumes!! There are colour coded uniforms, imperial/kimono style robes, stupid rubber monsters, overdone melodrama, the semi-attractive actors (attractive in the 'kicked puppy' sense), and the STORYLINE!! OMG, the stroyline. It has DINOSAURS!!!

*jumps up and down*

Okay, I admit, it's so cheesy that I can survive on it for several months, but I DON'T care!! Teh Cheese makes it good. Yes, it does. Worship Teh Cheese!

Yes, I'm a geek.

...............................................

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.

LOL

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

The ring you say ..

Was it the american one or the original.

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

/where/ did you see Equilibrium? I want to see this movie!! ^_^ *cries* I can't find it anywhere...

Very belated comment. ^^ I had this on my memories to comment on at a later date during the time I couldn't use my PC. Equilibrium rocked my world. I watched it in the theaters when it showed if only because of the GunKata, and while I was expecting a bad movie and some cool gun fights, it really was a surprisingly good watch.
