The Fall (2006)
Expected more from a 8.0 no Princess Bride.
I have never seen a trailer or heard anyone of my friends comment about this movie. Considering that it was a 2006 film with a appeal similar to "Princess Bride" I decided to watch it with enthusiasm. The visuals were an 8.0 plus the cute little girls performance, but that's about it for me. The characters of this story lacked personality. You could not really get a feel for their individual motives creating their quest better yet, enjoy their screen presence . Although it has the same theme about an elder telling a child a story about love,adventure, and fantasy, If your expecting it to out do "Princess Bride" or be just as good you may be disappointed.
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)
Must See In Order To Appreciate Raiders Of The Lost Ark..
Out of the whole saga of Indiana Jones this movie felt like A desperate attempt to rekindle the magic of the first one. If you never seen the first movie but saw this one I would suggest watching Raiders of the Lost Ark. You will see were these over produced subsequently lame CGI stunts and ideas came from and be instantly thrilled with these action bits that had substance compared to the fast motion, beyond human stunts applied in this one. In this new movie Indiana Jones and his disciple must have been Jedi's!? 80% of this movie is a copy cat but poorly done. It's kind of like watching the Simpsons when they pull a spoof out of a respected memorable film in order to apply nostalgia and humor from a great movie or event. George Lewcus and Steven Speelburg must be laughing all the way to the bank. They just did this sell out to collect an easy paycheck from the corporates and fans. The first movie they made with passion that gave movie critics a recognition of their brilliant creativity which must have been used up in the first three, most of it in RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK.
