Jurassic Fart (1996)
Truly a great film
This film rocked my world. I really enjoyed the voices and acting in it, i have to say that i was going to commit suicide till i saw this movie, it really made me realise that life had a point. It also made me laugh again. I haven't smiled in 34 years till i saw this movie. It made me live and dance again. In future people remember to fart jurasically, i always do now.
Overall this movie is truly one of the greatest of all time and all my friends agree, thank you whoever created this movie i love you.
The film has a lot of depth and really makes you think about things like life and people around you. Watch it, its truly awesome. Jurassic fart makes you feel the full range of emotions from Love to hate to happiness and sadness. What else could you want from a movie called Jurassic Fart.
Wo hu cang long (2000)
High Flying Chinese action is top notch!
This film had me gripped from start to finish. I had previously tuned into a dubbed version about half way through, but the cheesiness immediately changing the channel.
Watching the film in original Chinese, I was breathtaken. The action is perfectly timed, always relevant (Except perhaps the teahouse scene, but that was damn good fun!) and always eye-poppingly good. As well as all this the story is superb, and has a great climax.
some people complain that there is no reason to the flying. But these people are unable to experience escapism and enjoy this movie to the full.
Star Wars (1977)
Not as good as you first thought
Now I'm not saying I don't like Star Wars. It's a great series of films. But Episode IV: A New Hope falls disappointingly short in retrospect.
when in first came out in was the pinnacle of special effects, and everyone was amazed. But as someone who wasn't alive in 77, it is quite easy to see it's shortcomings.
The plot is very basic. Seeing this film for the first time in 3 years i was surprised at how short it was. And simplistic too. Not very much depth or character development. With the exception of Alec Guiness and James Earl Jones, the acting is pretty poor two.
The special effects were good for their day, but I still find that clash between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader painful. It is a bit ridiculous now with all the lightsaber twirling in the prequels, but they weren't even trying. Just standing rigid and lightly bashing their swords together.
That said this is the one that launched so many other great films, and introduced great characters like Darth and Han Solo, and has to receive credit. A phenomenal achievement in cinema, but it's clear Lucas's skill needed a little more polish.
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
The greatest finale to the greatest trilogy of films!
Once again Peter Jackson manages to blow the competition out of the water and take cinematography to the next level. Every sweeping action shot, every camera pan is executed flawlessly, making this entire film a joy to watch from start to finish every time.
Ian Mckellen is the star performer as Gandalf, as his command of the men of Gondor easily makes up for the fact that he's not actually much of a wizard. Elijah Wood and Sean Astin pull out all the stops to give a fantastic performance for the ending to a fantastic set of films. Hats off too to Andy Serkis as Gollum, with near perfect voice acting.
The battle scenes have been copied many a time since, but the original is still the best. Peter Jackson proves that artistic license can be good, as the changes made are mostly for the better.
Overall this is the pinnacle of film-making, with Jackson creating what Tolkien himself described as the "unfilmable" book. I strongly recommend this film anyone, even those who don't like fantasy, as you will not regret it.
Crack in the World (1965)
Why did I waste my time watching this?
I saw this film when i was but a lad, and I must say It has scarred me for life.
Check out this fantastic plot: A group of scientists, eager to harness the geothermal energy from the earth's mantle, adopt an ingenious, if albeit rather overboard method of doing so. They launch a nuclear missile deep into the earth's crust. Unfortunately this somehow manages to rupture the crust and cause a huge rift which starts to spread across the globe. "Oh no what a terrible catastrophe!" the scientists cry, "how ever shall we remedy this terrible problem?" I know, let's stop the rift by firing more nuclear missiles into the earth's crust ahead of it. This creates more devastation and subsequently rips of a large chunk of the earth, creating a new moon and leaving the hero and a sexy lady alive, standing triumphantly on a hill while the earth burns. And then the words "The End" What kind of ending is that? whoever thought up this ridiculous plot and tormented me as a child should be fired into the earths crust along with any trace of this movie.
Beastmaster III: The Eye of Braxus (1996)
It was utter crap!
Almost everything about this film sucks and blows major ass! The acting is the worst I have ever seen, and the action scenes starring the ridiculously muscled and hideously ugly lead actor involve nothing more than bludgeoning guards over the head with the hilt of his sword.
The fantastic array of beasts were extremely lacking, A lion and falcon I can understand, but a weasel? How terribly ferocious.
Even the title of this travesty of a movie was awful. I was led to believe this was some sick fetish film, but even that would have been more enjoyable than this turgid pile of stinking horse manure!
The only merit was the comedy effect of Braxus being lent by the Power Rangers special effects department. I was impressed by the plastic and 'scary' effect that literally had me crapping myself as an excuse to stop watching the film.
