Great coming of age film for all fans of sci-fi classics
I honestly did not know this movie existed. Despite people use physical media less and less. I still do. I actually still use my local library to look for titles I've never seen. Something anyone who has memories of video stores remember doing and looking at the box cover and renting the movie to see for themselves if the movie was as good as the box art.
I have to say after watching this movie nearly 20 years in the making, it is a good movie. I understand others who complain it's too long. But I think its just right for what it is. It at minimum is a companion piece to "The Fabelmans" if not superior to it.
I'll end with do check out if your local library still has Blu-rays and DVDs to rent. When you do, you are supporting your local library and actually ensuring your librarians will be funded if the community is using resources they provide.
Support your local library.
Knights of Badassdom (2013)
Didn't have high expectations. Was happy with DVD release
I didn't have high expectations this movie would be any good with the long delay and mixed reviews. I watched the film on DVD and the extras included helped allot to explain what the director and cast were trying to accomplish with this film. It was actually educational a little for myself learning about L.A.R.P.I.N.G. From friends, I knew about and have experienced Renaissance fairs, but never heard the term LARPING. I expected the film to be a comedy, the horror twist was a surprise, but not a turn off either.
I honestly thought this movie was superior to "Jennifer's Body". However kind of suffered from the same problem although not as much. That is it a comedy or a horror film? It didn't feel like a steady mix and from reports with the battle the director had with the studio, it explains the uneven flow of the movie.
The Succubus monster in the movie felt like and the DVD extra revealed it was a throwback to 80's and 90's horror films with practical effects over CGI common today. It can be feel cheep, but respectful if you understand what they were going for.
Overall I was happy with the rental and recommend anyone who is a fan of LARPING or Firefly give it a chance. Another film it reminded me of with comedy and horror mixed together would be "Tucker and Dale vs Evil"
Milf (2010)
Waste of Time
This isn't the worst comedy ever made, but their are so many more well written and acted films out their.
This movie is a lame soft porn film that is badly written and no real plot to it.
The laughs are few and far between and it feels like a lame imitation of American Pie.
Honestly,just a photo of Molinee Green nude toward the beginning of the film is all person attracted to women would ever want from this film. Her few minutes in the film is honestly the only thing worth watching for myself.
The film is only 90 minutes but I ended up watching at 1.5x speed to get through it as it just seems like 85 minutes to long.
