Chernobyl Diaries (2012)
Awesome for Insomnia
This movie is simply awesome for insomnia .. I ain't joking... I seriously suffer from insomnia and have for quite some time now...usually I get 1-2 hours a day if I'm lucky in short 15 min time intervals ... but CHERNOBYL DIARIES was simply awesome...
About 30 minutes into the movie, I realized that the movie was just about the worst I'd ever seen and then miraculously I drifted into a wonderful sleepfest that lasted for not just the remainder of that show but the next showing as well ... As I woke up I saw that the movie had about 30 mins left to run so I sat through to see if I could find a grain of sanity in the movie ..and as awesome as it sounds I drifted back to sleep...
This movie is simply amazing ...one of the worst films ever made and yet an amazing cure for sleep apnea ...Go Dr. Bradley Parker go ... you have done for me what a hundred sleep specialists haven't ... i've just bot tickets for the next 3 nights (2 shows apiece) ..of course it is a little lonely me being the only one in the theater but what the hell I need the sleep.
Total Recall (2012)
Brilliant
TOTAL RECALL (for those who haven't seen the original and who aren't fans of Arnie) is a brilliant action/CGI flick.
Admittedly it is weak on a storyline but you didn't buy a ticket for the plot lines did you. The action is electrifying and the CGI amazing...I'd put this above Dark Knight Rises and The Avengers in terms of the sheer electricity of the action;Colin Farrell is excellent - thankfully he is no Arnie with his stupid accent - Farrell is an intelligent actor and makes the best of the dialogue and storyline...
I have had the good fortune of not seeing the original and hence can compare it with nothing ; this is a Bourne on steroids set in the sci-fi world and for the 2 hours running time there are only a few moments when the visual extravaganza does not captivate.
