We Dare You Again…

Product Image: Saw II
My rating: 3 out of 5

Jigsaw locks 8 or 9 unlucky people in a booby trapped shelter and they must find a way out before they inhale too much of a lethal nerve gas and die. But they must watch out, for the traps that the Jigsaw has set in the shelter lead to death also.

Neah. Inte riktigt lika bra som 1:an. Tycker inte denna fångade in tittaren lika bra. Under den första filmen satt jag på nålar och bara väntade på upplösningen av filmen. Denna gång var det kanske lite svårare att lista ut “mördaren”. Hade det inte varit för slutet så hade det varit lägre betyg på denna.

The Best In The Business Is Back In The Game.

My rating: 3 out of 5

Professional driver Frank Martin is living in Miami, where he is temporarily filling in for a friend as the chauffeur for a government narcotics control policymaker and his family. The young boy in the family is targeted for kidnapping, and Frank immediately becomes involved in protecting the child and exposing the kidnappers.

Wohooo. Ja, tar man inte denna filmen för mer än vad den är så är den bra. Detta är en riktigt popcornrulle. En massa osanrolik action. Men oj så underhållande 🙂
Inte riktigt lika bra som 1:an, men Jason Statham är ju alltid bra.

Tidig julklapp

scaleoview w19-1
Har köpt mig själv en julklapp. Det blev en 19″ Widescreen skärm. En Fujitsu-Siemens Scaleoview W19-1. Jag hittade den för 3200:- inkl. frakt och tyckte det var ett riktigt bra pris. Slog till direkt. 🙂
Nu är det bara flera dagars väntan tills den kommer med posten *suck*

What happened to Emily?

Product Image: The Exorcism of Emily Rose
My rating: 4 out of 5

A young girl (Jennifer Carpenter) dies under the care of her parish priest (Tom Wilkinson). While attending college, Emily believed she became possessed. After medical care ceases to work, she turned to her faith. In the care of her priest she dies and he goes on trial for her death. He is represented by a career-minded and driven lawyer (Laura Linney) who does not believe in God. Thus is the story of Emily Rose, told by those in the trial and the priest who watched her through her possession.

Det var inte riktigt denna typ av film jag förväntade mig efter att ha sett trailers för den. Trodde det skulle vara en modern Exorcisten, men det var det inte. Den var mera lik The Life of David Gale. Filmen utspelar sig efter exorsismen av Emily Rose. Under rättegången mot prästen som utförde exorsismen. Rättegången innehåller då tillbakablickar på vad det var som hände.
Mycket underhållande film.

Cousins. Outlaws. Thrillbillies.

Product Image: The Dukes of Hazzard
My rating: 3 out of 5

Cousins Bo (Seann William Scott) and Luke (Johnny Knoxville) Duke, with the assistance of their sexy cousin Daisy (Jessica Simpson) and Uncle Jesse (Willie Nelson), must save the Duke family farm from destruction by the town’s corrupt and evil commissioner Boss Hogg (Burt Reynolds). Their efforts constantly find the “Duke Boys” eluding authorities in “The General Lee”, the boys’ orange 1969 Dodge Charger that keeps them one step ahead of the dimwitted antics of the small southern town’s Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane (M.C. Gainey).

Underhållande. Men det är väl allt. Konstigt nog skulle jag nog klara av att se en 2:a av denna filmen. Inget speciellt del på skådespelarna, Jessica Simpson passar bra för att spela dum blondin 🙂
Det är mest manuset som känns väldigt tunnt.

Eliminating Evil Since 1812

Product Image: The Brothers Grimm
My rating: 3 out of 5

The action-adventure tale revolving around the legendary German brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm is set to start shooting around Prague in June. Written by The Ring scribe Ehren Kruger, the fictional plot has the folklore collectors, now called Jake and Will, traveling from village to village pretending to protect townsfolk from enchanted creatures and pulling off exorcisms. They are put to the test when they encounter a real magical curse, requiring genuine courage.

Hade nog hoppats på en lite bättre film. Trailern fick mig väl att kanske önska mera. Den var underhållande, men inte mera. Tråkigt på Terry Gilliam som brukar göra så speciella filmer. Detta är bara en normal äventyrsfilm.

There’s been a grave misunderstanding.

My rating: 3 out of 5

Victor (Johnny Depp) messed up his vows during a wedding rehearsal, and is traveling through the woods, reciting his vows. He stops to rest in the woods,and while practicing, he gets them right and puts his wedding ring on a finger-shaped stick in the ground and says his wedding vows. The stick turns out to be a rotted finger belonging to a murdered girl (Helena Bonham-Carter), who returns as a zombie and insists that she is now Victor’s lawfully wedded wife.

En härlig film i samma anda som The Nightmare Before Christmas men inte riktigt lika bra, inte riktigt samma humor. Men verkligen sevärd då hela filmen är leranimationer.

Can’t stop the signal.

Product Image: Serenity
My rating: 3 out of 5

The crew of the Serenity is getting desperate. They have lain lower and lower to protect their doctor, Simon Tam (Sean Maher), and his telepathic traumatized little sister, River (Summer Glau), from the alliance, whom he rescued her from a year earlier. This has made getting jobs harder and now they are desperate. When they take River on a robbery during which Reavers (humans who have gone crazy and turned into cannibals) attack, Simon decides that its time to leave the crew of the Serenity for his and River’s safety. She then mutters “Miranda” and goes berserk and nearly shoots Capt. Malcolm Reynolds (Nathan Fillion), until her brother says the safety word to put her to sleep. Reynolds decides to take them back on board for safety, only now an alliance operative (Chiwetel Ejiofor) is on their tracks and making Reynolds determined to find out what “Miranda” is and what the Alliance is hiding.

Kanske inte riktigt så bra som jag hoppats på. Men oj vilket bra jobb av Joss Whedon för att vara hans första spelfilm som regissör. Det är en helt ok SciFi-rulle. Känns i vissa lägen som lite för lång, då tempot ibland blir lite väl lågt. Men mycket utav de lugna partierna är till för lite karaktärsutveckling. Ma ville verkligen inte att någon ur Serenitys Crew skulle dö.
