Unbreakable (2000)
Better than The Sixth Sense?
YES! This is an excellent movie and I know when watching a movie you shouldn't compare it to others, but how can you not compare this to the sixth sense.
(*Spoilers Ahead*) People may say you need to like comics to like this movie, but this is not true at all. I don't think i've ever fully read a comic book in my life and it didn't effect my opinion of this movie at all. All you need to know about comic books is told in the movie. You may also think that a good versus evil type movie might not be that great but you don't even realise it is a good versus evil movie till the end.
People say the story is a little weak and I would have to agree with this, though it doesn't mean the movie is bad at all. The acting was brilliant by everyone. I had given up on Bruce Willis until I saw this movie, he along with Samuel L. Jackson was great. The camera effect when Bruce Willis is seeing what bad thing a person has done is brilliant, this is especially shown in the train station. The super hero stuff, like when he goes and saves those kids is also cool.
The thing that made the sixth sense so good was the twist. Don't get me wrong, the movie was good, but after seeing Unbreakable you become aware of this. Unbreakable couldn't simply rely on a twist ending like the sixth sense because people were prepared for it, M. Night Shyamalan knew this and still pulled off a great twist ending,imust admit i did guess the ending but only when i heard Elijah's mother talking about the villains in comic books near the end of the movie. That's when i realised the villain in the movie was missing and that Elijah's mother, in a way was describing Elijah. What made it better that the sixth sense was how David Dunn saw all the bad things Mr. Glass had done.
9/10
Primal Fear (1996)
Edward Norton is magnificent!
If there's only one reason for seeing this movie, it's Edward Norton!
I have never seen anyone in their debut role act so well. He is by far the best actor in this movie. Richard Gere was also good.
The movie may seem to go slow at some points, but whatever you do, WAIT TILL THE END! It is only then that you can fully understand how well Edward Norton played his part as the accused murderer of a priest.
I give it 9.8/10 and Edward Norton 12/10
Final Destination (2000)
Not a scary movie, a good movie!
Many people will say this movie is crap and badly directed and badly acted and all that stuff, but the truth is, it wasn't bad at all. It isn't a scary movie, although some girls may find it scary, the guys will have to look at it from a different perspective. It is more a thriller with an original story line. Than a p**s-your-pants type movie!
The starting sequence would have to be one of the best in the movies, then the movie keeps a steady pace until the end, the end is very good, as good if not better than the starting one. It leaves your imagination to come up with what happens next. The death scenes were somewhat predictable but a lot of little tricks were put in.
(SPOILER) Like in the bathroom, it makes it look like he's gonna cut himself then like he's gonna electrocute himself, when finally he's hanged.
Overall the movie was quite good and the acting was alright but the plot was very good. Don't listen to what anyone says before you see it, cause if you go in the movie thinking it's gonna be crap, it will be crap. So go in with no opinion and come out with one of your own.
I give this movie 8.5/10
Fight Club (1999)
This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time!
This would have to be one of the best movies of all time, it's original and brilliant unlike The Blair Witch Project. I read the book before seeing the movie and I thought the book was great, the style of writing is second to none. I was amazed at how David Fincher made it almost exactly like the book, the movie was made superbly it is also original, for instance when it shows Edward Norton and Bradd Pitt explaining what he does with the movie reels and what he does as a waiter. Edward Norton has proved himself to be one of the best actors ever after making Fight Club and American History X, his acting in Fight Club was just amazing. Bradd Pitt also proved that he is more than just a body for women to stare at, he can act too. I couldn't picture any other actors doing those parts as well as them.
Overall I give this movie 12/10 and if you don't like this movie you are too old or can't handle a little criticism against white collar workers!
American History X (1998)
One word, "Brilliant"
A great movie that shows all the emotion and intensity needed. A great cast that all played their roles well. Probably Edward Norton's best movie, he is great, he conveys strong emotions that we can understand, puts himself into his role and makes it all look easy. In some parts of the film all you have to do is stare into his eyes and they say more than a thousand words. Superb, 10/10
Rocky Marciano (1999)
The greatest boxing biography on the greatest boxer!
An excellent movie that tells us about the greatest boxer in the world to this day. Rocky Marciano is a great biography that is different to others, while watching it you don't think it's a biography because it is filled with action and drama just like any other great movie.
If you are a boxing fan then this movie is a must! Even if your not it's still a great movie!
Wild Wild West (1999)
The only good thing about this movie is the song!
A poor modern western movie that just doesn't work. It isn't very funny and has the old goody versus baddy plot. I have to give them credit for trying something new though, it's not every day you see western movie being made as a big production in the 90's. The song rules though!
I give it a 5/10
Big Daddy (1999)
An Inspiration!
Big Daddy is an inspirational movie that takes you along a ride of life and how the unexpected can happen, but it's not always bad. For all those people who want a laugh, this is the movie to see, it's funny and said all in one.
It's a great comedy/drama and well worth seeing!
Heat (1995)
One Of The Best Movies In It's Genre Ever Made!!
A great crime movie featuring an excellent cast, Robert De Niro and Al Pacino suit the roles perfectly and play them out even better.
There is a good storyline that gets better as it goes along, it is different to your typical goody versus baddy movie, I think this is what makes it great.
I recommend this movie to any action/crime movie lovers, or anyone who likes a good movie.
Spaceballs (1987)
Better than the real Star Wars!!
This is one of the best comedies ever. It's better than the real Star Wars, it has the right actors for the right parts and they are all funny. You can watch this movie over and over again without getting sick of it!! I STRONGLY recommend this movie!!
To Kill a Mockingbird (1962)
The Novel Is Better
I feel the novel is the best bet but the movie is quite an excellent reproduction of the book. The only thing I thought was bad about the movie is that a lot of minor parts are left out. But this is a really good movie and I recommend both the book and the movie!
Happy Gilmore (1996)
The Best Movie!
This is the best movie I have seen and I'm sure there are a lot of others who agree. There are no mistakes, it's the funniest movie ever made. A must see movie!
Snake Eyes (1998)
Excellent idea, average movie. Where is the suspense?
A good overall movie, but it could have had some improvements. The movie was based on an excellent idea but poorly acted out, this was not the fault of the actors. The acting is quite good especially from Nicolas Cage, he portrays every emotion perfectly. The suspense in the movie is lost within the first half of it. But it is a movie that you should watch if you're an action, thriller movie lover.
Mission: Impossible (1996)
An excellent spy movie that can sometimes be difficult to follow.
One of the best spy movies of our time. With a combination of action and strategy, it can be difficult to follow at some points. A movie well worth seeing!
Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (1995)
Not as good as the original, but still worth watching.
This movie isn't as funny as the original but it's still worth watching. It seems that no matter what movie Jim Carrey is in it still makes me laugh.
Armageddon (1998)
Good Special Effects + Good Story = Great Movie!
A very good movie that actually has a story other than a comet's going to hit earth. Not a completely original story, being based on a comet hitting earth but overall I think it was a job well done!
Chasing Amy (1997)
A strange movie that isn't very good.
A strange movie, different to any other. I don't think it's worth paying to see.
Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994)
A very good comedy that is well worth seeing!
A very good comedy that is well worth seeing. I have seen this movie many times and every time I see it I still can't stop laughing. A must for all Jim Carrey fans and even lovers of comedy movies.
