Ci ling (2009)
Truly bad... no, really.
No, it wasn't the fact that a pop star was in it... he was actually quite good. The movie was so bad because the script was terrible and it was so badly cut. Nice tributes to almost every adventure movie out there... some might call it theft, but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. The acting was quite good... and I've always been a sucker for a motorcycle, a damsel in distress and a bit of ancient history... It could have been just an enjoyable adventure romp... but the script was awful... Such a shame... such a waste...
I bought the DVD... Anyone want it?
Where Eagles Dare (1968)
Simply my all time favourite movie!
This movie is an excellent example to all young filmmakers that a film does not have to be perfect in order to be great. This movie has many mistakes, both factual and technical, but they just add to the charm of the overall experience. Richard Burton is, in my mind, at his absolute best and his performance reflects onto all his co actors, including a very young and very talented Clint Eastwood. I am not a war film fan. I do not even think about the war connection when I watch this film. It is an excellent thriller with great intrigue and style. Ingrid Pitt is also the underrated actress of the film. Without her and Richard Burton, this movie would be just good. As it is, it is always awesome, no matter how many times I watch it!
