The Force Awakens - This is a Remake of Star wars A new Hope
18 December 2015
Warning: Spoilers
I am a huge star wars fan I love it, and I was really looking forward to this movie. It is a boring film and boring actors, there are far too many boring parts and a lot of the ideas for the film are copied from star wars a new hope so the film is very predictable and gets so tedious to watch.

The good news : *It has the feel of the old movies from the original trilogy *It is better than the star wars episodes 1 -3 which George lucas messed up * It has more real life characters than stupid jar jar binks * The aliens are more like the old films which make it very good * You have the same kind of spaceships as the old films

The bad news: * Long boring bits in the film * Too much of the film copies Star wars episode 4 * Too Predictable * Bigger Death star blown up by a couple of x wings * Droid lands on desert planet with map to find Luke - similar to droid lands on desert planet with info to blow up death star. * Han solo son is on the dark side and tries to get redeemed - failed - again this copies the darth vader story

it is enjoyable in parts but I think I wanted the story to develop faster and really take the story to new heights. Unfortunately it followed episode 4 and was so boring and so easy to work out and left nothing to the imagination

I know what will happen in the next episode, the girl Rey (the new Luke) will train with Luke (the new yoda) and then bring her brother (kylo ren)back from the dark side, they then defeat snooke (emperor) and probably blow up another even more powerful death star. How Boring zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Its a disappointing movie if you have watched lots of star wars this film does not deliver much more. If you never seen a star wars film before then it will be more original for you and you will enjoy it more. For me there was just too much copying of the plot

Ted 2 (2015)
3/10
Not as funny as the first, the magic is wearing off
13 July 2015
Warning: Spoilers
I was so looking forward to Ted 2 after really enjoying the first one.

What a disappointment!

Basically Ted is married to a hot girl and tries to get a baby to save his marriage. However it all goes wrong and Ted is investigated and the state say he is not a person so he loses all his rights job and marriage. Ted than has a court battle to prove he is a person which he eventually wins with the help of John his best buddy and girlfriend lawyer. Such a boring plot really bad. The old enemy Donny tries to get Ted as he is regarded as just Property, in attempt to make Hasbro rich - this gets foiled by john who saves Ted

There are some funny bits to the movie, like Jurassic park bit where they see cannabis field and some good one liners

However the film is looking and trying far too hard for jokes for every line in the movie - rather than naturally funny they try all the time to make one liners a lot of them not that funny.

The cute factor of Ted is wearing off and the magic too, I was so bored after the first hour I wanted to leave, the jokes and sarcasm were so predictable.

Hopefully no more Ted films but you can guarantee they will make Ted 3 just for the money.

Next time have a good plot and story this was very weak.

Les Miserables is simply Great
20 January 2013
Fantastic film - I have not seen the musical before watching this, so I had no idea of the story. I sat back into my chair waiting to be entertained. This movie was amazing, the characters, the passion the emotion. I soon got used to the singing and really enjoyed it. Hugh Jackman should win an Oscar he had a fantastic voice and delivered so much passion and emotion in his role All the characters are great, from Russell crowe to sasha baron cohen, the people in the French revolution, the cast are amazing This is the story of deliverance, happiness and love despite all the problems and suffering in the world and poverty. Totalling gripping from start to end this is the essence of LIFE, the essence of True film making, not rubbish super heroes like Hulk Ironman and nonsense. This was real, raw human emotion, love, god it hits you in the heart and you have so much connection with the characters.

Easily the best film I have seen for the last five years It is packed full of emotion and passion I recommend it, but it is a bit sad but that's Life!!

Skyfall (2012)
10/10
Fantastic Bond Film, Film Of The Year
12 November 2012
I have seen nearly all the films released this year 2012 at the cinema

Skyfall is clearly the best film of 2012

It is so well directed and really good.

Daniel craig does a superb job as bond and the story is very interesting. The action scenes are amazing and it was action packed all the way through. Compare this to Taken 2 rubbish, lol , this is on a different level. The story the settings, the effects everything in this film is the highest quality. Adele sings the Skyfall song at the start- amazing. Judy Dench great actress, overall the way the film starts and how it tells the story is just fantastic.

I left the cinema feeling very happy i just watched a really good film.

I am a hard critic and i like to complain about rubbish films. But this film ticks all the boxes. The Best Bond film of all time, if you enjoy movies this is a must watch.

Can't wait for the next Bond film should be fantastic!!

Taken 2 (2012)
1/10
This Film is the Biggest Disappointment
18 October 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Wow its Taken 2 can't wait to go to the movies and watch it.

I loved Taken and this is going to be the best sequel ever with Liam Neeson i can't go wrong.

Watched the movie - Utter Rubbish!!!

This film is so ridiculous, do they think we are all living in the dark ages and know nothing about Turkey?

This film has so many flaws, i am the big liam neeson i can dodge 1000 bullets, i am bruce lee i can beat up 20 guys at once

This was complete rubbish.

I am the big liam neeson i use Grenades as GPS, just a few grenades and i can tell u where i am by counting the seconds it takes to hear explosions and drawing circles on a map. It is so silly and annoying.

This film is so bad he tries, the bad guys are so cheesy its insane.

Then the girl who is learning to drive, uses an old fashioned gear stick lever car in a massive chase scene, there is no way she would be able to drive a car at that speed and that skill and she hasn't even passed her test. it was so silly.

Not to mention the drive through to the US embassy shooting soldiers destroying the barriers and driving through security. One simple phone call to a man on a golf course and they walk free. Yeah right , you would held for at least 48 hours for that and still be detained.

For idiots this is a good movie.

For the adult audience with a brain this movie is so silly.

Avoid it is complete rubbish!!

Looper (2012)
5/10
This film is boring and makes u loopy
14 October 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This film is watchable but it is so boring, it is very similar to terminator 2 in most respects, but Terminator 2 is 1000 times better

Slow film take a good hour to get into it.

i was expecting so much more, it was heavily advertised and the trailer was great.

The reality the trailer sums the film up quickly and fast , this film stretches on for so long.

Basically there is a kid which special telekinetic skills that are off the scales, in the future this kid will be very dangerous He is killing all the loopers. The reason (which you discover at the end of the film)is because a looper killed the mum looking after him. This looper (30 years ahead) is Bruce willis, the same looper who protects the boy It is a bit like terminator 2 with time travel, a good looper saves the boy, basically by killing his future self at the end to avoid the whole circle problem of the boy becoming evil for revenge, just as arnie goes in flames to protect the world from his chips in his head. this looper kills himself to stop him shooting the mother which in turn would have caused the boy to destroy everything with his super powers To understand the story you have to watch it all and the ending is like the beginning Its complicated to explain but basically the young looper kills the future looper (they are the same person) in order to save the world from this super power kid hell bent on revenge if that looper kills his mum. If that kid gets angry he destroys everything.

Anyway it is very easy to understand the film when you watch but it is not exciting , there are a few good scenes but overall not very original and the film is way too long and boring for big parts of the film

Worth a watch but don't expect much and you will like it more

The best movie i have seen
12 October 2012
This movie is about humanity and friendship, based on a true story

The disabled man has all the money but he is sad and empty and his life is so boring and routine, he is trapped in his body inside his huge mansion.

He employs a guy from the streets, used to hard life in gangs and no money. However this guy is down to earth, simple, and fun.

It changes his whole world from boring, to living life on the edge, making the most out of things, having loads of fun. He cuts through all the formal rubbish in the disabled mans life to tell him just do it and go for it. This is the case when he writes love letters for 6 months and he finally gets the big push to meet up with the lady and be happy.

It is a story of friendship and how people from two opposite ends of life meet up in order for a care job to be done. In real life it proves people from all backgrounds, money, handicapped can all be good to each other and make a big difference to each others lives.

This film is so funny you will laugh so much, it maybe in subtitles but his movie is simply superb.

Forget Hollywood £400 million pound blockbusters, this film is not about money it is about true friendship and it beats all them other films by miles

Savages (I) (2012)
10/10
Great Film, Original
27 September 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This is a fantastic film.

The actors are all great the story is great and there is lots of action

basically two cool drug dealers with their girl get messed up with a big drug gang in a deal

The result their girl gets kidnapped so they have to do exactly what the dealer says

it gets gruesome, but then the stakes are raised, the bad dealer wants 13 million for the girl 'o', one of the two cool drug dealers is an experienced soldier who has friends they then do a raid to get some millions to raise money to get the girl free as they are trying to pay a ransome however they do over the dealer they have to pay, lol

It gets really interesting and is a very well directed movie.

John Travolta is great as dennis

Some good twists at the end make this film very enjoyable

And it was a happy ending after a roller coaster of a ride, very satisfying when you work it all out.

The Boring legacy
25 September 2012
This film is boring the acting is average and it never develops into much.

Why are they making so many Bourne films?? The reason is when the brand first cam out everyone loved it but now it has been over used everyone is bored of it Now they are reinventing the series with a different actor

The problem is you have seen it all before and much better in the previous Bourne films.

The movie industry is safe betting on Sequels and Prequels with no Substance and no real impact or need apart from the fact they make millions and millions of dollars

Is there a need for Bourne Legacy?? No Was the film good? No but watchable Will there be more Bourne Films?? Yes plenty of them Were the actors good?? Average

Overall the film is watchable, but very long and drawn out, there are some good action sequences but the overall point of the movie is useless.

It only gets interesting towards the end and you can tell there will be another movie, but you sense they are only creating more sequels for the sake of making tons of money not for the sake of a good film with a good plot

The Sweeney (2012)
10/10
Excellent , The Sweeney is A Fantastic Film
24 September 2012
I watched The Sweeney with low expectations, my girlfriend did not want to watch it, it was also in an orange mobile advert we had seen 20 times and was annoying us. It was a British film set in London

The odds were clearly against this film being good.

But i can tell you this film is Fantastic.

It was great acting, fast action, and keeps you glued to the screen.

A very enjoyable film, great car chases, even my girlfriend really enjoyed in fact the cinema was packed full and everyone came out really happy and were full of praise.

Everything about this film worked well, you take it for what it is and gives you so much more.

Very entertaining, gritty action, adrenaline, this is street crime and the sweeney are tough

They never give up and try to catch the criminal at all costs, breaking stuff destroying things its just great

I don't why people have given this a low rating, but then most of the ratings from people are very strange on IMDb. i see people giving 10 to rubbish films all the time.

This film for all the great acting and directing is superb.

Very entertaining and you will enjoy it

Ray Winstone deserves an Oscar for this he was 100 times better than Brad Pitt in Killing them Softly which was the worst movie i have ever seen.

The Sweeney is Sweet - Enjoy!!

Worst Film I Have Seen - Terrible Acting, Terrible Story
23 September 2012
This film is simply GARBAGE!! In fact it is worse than garbage

I see all the 5 Star reviews, i see the good rating on IMDb, i see all the praise and some good reviews. i see Brad Pitt, James Gandolfini, and liotta

No this Film is boring nonsense

There is not much action, The film basically evolves around 2 morons who hold up a card game to get all the money, then they go on the run and brad pitt gets involved to get them, that is a really rubbish story line.

Please i want originality

No what we get is so boring screen play, that gets worse as the film goes on. It gets so bad people were walking out of the cinema James Gandolfini was so BAD in the film a total loser and he was great in sopranos

There is nothing i can say good about the film, Brad Pitt is very average, the violence is not much good and it is far too long.

This story could have been told in half an hour it is really a very simple story line that is dragged out over 2 hours for no good reason.

Avoid Avoid Avoid Avoid Avoid Avoid

Do not waste your money

Even if you got a free cinema pass do not waste 2 hours of your life and annoy your girlfriend

Instead go for a nice meal

you will miss nothing

a great film to watch in the same genre is The Sweeney it is fantastic

Boring cabin in the woods
17 September 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This film is rubbish.

Horror??? nothing scary in this film at all, even the 15 rating tells you there is nothing to be afraid of

Original??? nothing original just a big brother style holiday camp with monsters

what a lot of nonsense the acting and directing was just average

a group of teenagers go for a holiday camping weekend however it is a big brother style holiday camp where they are being watched and surveyed by a bunch of geek scientists waging bets on who survives.

the scientists choose the monsters that will get them eg zombies

in the end the teenagers know what is going on and the scientists get eaten by the monsters as the teenagers try to escape through the scientists lab

nothing amazing, nothing incredible it is just a normal average movie.

Why does this movie get amazing reviews??? 10/10 i mean some people must be crazy

the film was so predictable especially with the dipsy blonde girl you know was going to get killed

a very cliché horror film and very boring.

Lawless (2012)
6/10
Not bad, Not great but too long
9 September 2012
The expectation of this movie was high following the trailers i thought this would be of similar style to young guns with a mobster gangland punch which it essentially is

This film set in the 1930's has a fairly good story. In a nutshell 3 brothers doing a moonshine business, who have major troubles with a new sheriff. The result 2 hours of chases and lots of blood.

The story is directed OK, Jack is the best character, i don't think Forest is that good. The acting is fairly good but its all about moonshine bootleg and does not go to the next level

I was expecting more, there is good action in places but there are long boring bits, the ending disappointed me a bit

overall a watchable film, but not a great movie.

works well in some scenes and then gets very dull

i would watch it again but with low expectations the movie is not bad

Anna Karenina (I) (2012)
7/10
Anna Karenina - Good movie
9 September 2012
This film starts off in an unusual way, you have to have patience and accept the way the director tells the story through the use of stages in a theatre.

it is a very original film and a clever way of directing, once i got to used to the settings and the directing i started to really enjoy the film.

The characters were very good actors, keira knightly was excellent, basically a love story with a married woman who has an affair and it all goes wrong

Overall the film has very good sets, actors and story. It is a bit over dramatic but thats what you expect with these big love stories

I enjoyed the setting in Russia, its a very original film, and a style you have to get used to, but the film does work, if you keep up with it, the film gets more interesting.

I probably would not watch it again as it is a bit heavy and sad, but overall i would say it is worth a watch and is a fairly good movie with substance and lots of emotion.

The Possession (I) (2012)
8/10
Great Horror film
5 September 2012
This movie is very good for a horror film

It starts off well and you have very good characters, the father in the film is a very good actor.

Overall the directing of the movie is excellent, all the pieces fit together well and you understand the story. A lot of horror films fail in the directing as things are mismatched and no one knows what is is going on.

It is a very well told story that develops into lots of thrills and scares

It is not a gory film which is very good but it keeps you entertained all the way through

The characters are excellent and interesting, the acting is good so this keeps you gripped all the way through

Overall an enjoyable film and does the job of a good horror film

Ice Age 4 - Makes you Sleep and SNORE through an Ice Age
23 July 2012
This film is total garbage it is for little kids only.

The worst film i have seen this year, after 20minutes of watching paint dry i was snoring loudly in the cinema

It is so bad the director must be insane.

There is no originality at all, the movie is just like all the others

The acorn theme continues and is really starting to annoy me - its not funny any more

The old characters talk the same old boring clichés and the story never really develops

This is just a money spinner to make millions for the Ice Age Brand - the problem is it is actually destroying what made the first two film good by over repeating the same jokes

There is nothing new in this film and it is an embarrassment

The only way you can enjoy the film a little is if you have not seen any of the previous films, but it is still the worst.

If you fall asleep in the film and wake up you have missed nothing because the plot is so simple

Even kids in the cinema didn't laugh at the jokes- a very bad movie

Toy story and Despicable me are ten times better and put this rubbish to shame.

Good Movie - better than MIB 2
23 July 2012
Great movie - will smith and tommy lee jones keep this franchise well alive

I like the originality in the film and it was well directed. If you just want an easy going science fiction movie with some good comedy then this hits the nail on the head. There were some boring bits, but overall the film had some nice twists towards the end and was just the right length. I think this will be the last in the series. Some parts of the film were very similar to the previous movies, but there was enough wit in some of the jokes to keep you entertained. In the case of MIB 3 it delivers what you expect it to - fun, aliens action and will smith jokes. Probably one of the more entertaining movies this summer before we are all choked up with DC Comic Action hero movies. Fun film but not a classic so i would say worth a watch but don't buy the DVD

Batman - Boring - Too Long - Cheesy
22 July 2012
This Batman film is the worst out of this Trilogy.

It takes over an hour for the movie to get going, when it finally does it is still boring.

The enemy is not even scary and very cheesy. The worst part of the movie is that is all so unbelievable, the director makes you think you have the brain of a three year old. I like very clever directing where you are made to think and put things together like with Quentin Tarentino. The directing here was very basic and for kids, it was so cheesy and so many clichés. Basically it has all been done before in the other batman films and done a lot better too. The last one is in the series is mean to be the best but this was the worst - the batman series has been totally exhausted , there was nothing original or exciting in the whole film.

The whole film is cheesy, i went with my friends who love the other batman films and not one of them like this.

Forget the 10 star reviews this film is Boring and cheesy

The only redeeming feature is cat woman is sexy but overall the film is so slow and drawn out.

Boring Nonsense - Very Childish
14 July 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This film is all about Katy Perry and her army of fans

Fans that say all movie long - WE LOVE KATY PERRY, Katy perry is amazing, katy perry is the best ever,

Literally the whole film is made up of people kissing her ass

her friends, her family, her gay buddies, the fans - all saying katy has amazing talent and we love her and she is the best

No wonder Russell Brand could not take anymore, Man she is way too much she is NUTS, Russell Brand is cool and witty not KITTY . Someone shoot that giant purple kitty

Boring waste of time to give it 1 star is a joke Can not stand Dancing Gingerbread men, Purple Kitty, her FAKE sister dressing up like a geek girl braces, Fake parents

Everyone in the movie is soooooo FAKE just to Kiss ass Kety Perry

Well Russell Brand had the balls to get out of there fast - well done mate

Misleading Boring, No Adventure!!
3 April 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This film is no exciting adventure its so boring- french garbage!!

Its won 5 Oscars and 2 baftas???

This film is a dedication to an old french movie director and it sucks

The whole story about the orphan boy in a train station who works with clocks and gadgets to find out more about his dad, drags on for 2 hours.

There is no magic in this boredom.

Ignore the good reviews and Oscars there is no fun adventure here

i was looking for the adventure and found this very misleading

Boring waste of money
1 April 2012
This film is so bad, it is at least 10 times worse than the first one

i hoped this film would be fantastic because the trailer was amazing, however the film is a mess, the actors are rubbish, the script is useless, the directing is a shambles.

A very boring film

To see that 1340 people have given this 10/10 , 42% of people.

This shows there is something very wrong, this film is at best 3/10, but realistically it is 1/10 you have to have no intelligence to watch this drizzle, maybe if you are 5 years old you might like it

Avoid at all costs, the movie is nothing like the great trailer!!!

Avatar as Boring Blue Aliens Get
11 February 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This film is the biggest Box Office in the whole world. It is rated highly on IMDb.

So this makes this film great???

No, this is the most boring cheesy cliché film i have seen.

The actors are not very good, not interesting, sigourney weaver is poor. The plot and the story are weak and very basic

You have a good disabled marine changing sides to the blue aliens to defend them against a bad general who wants their tree of life down so he can carry out development.

It is not original there are no surprises or twists, it needed a director to make the characters intense and plot interesting.

This movie is just a beautiful visual 3D film, but when you look deep in the film there is nothing there An excellent movie is Pulp Fiction, Alien, God Father, Kill Bill because these movies have great characters and a really good gripping story.

Avatar fails to keep me awake, i knew the ending before it happened and was disappointed

All that glitters is not gold!

i give this 1 star, like watching paint dry
