Movie review - Blade II

Blade II

Director: Guillermo del Toro

Writers: Marv Wolfman, Gene Colan and David S. Goyer

Actors: Wesley Snipes, Kris Kristofferson, Ron Perlman and Norman Reedus

My guess: 6,6? - 2003? (6,7 - 2002)

My Points: 7,1 - 3½/5

Well, this was a pretty good movie - you might say a decent one...

CGI effects were much better than in the first one. Ofcourse, 'cause this is a newer movie. But they still kinda sucked, compared to now'a'days effects.

Norman "Scud" Reedus was a nice addition, I like him. But he smoked too much cigarette. And it always was a "new" cigarette, it never was already smoked (like in the half way). Not that stupid, but... it caught my eye.

It was nice go get Kris "Whistler" Kristofferson back. If I remember correctly, he's also in the third movie. But he died "stupidly" in that one, if my memory works.

The "sword fight" was nice. Until they f*cked it up with very - VERY, bad CGI. It looked like a game, when Blade jump around like an idiot. Poor choice, to use CGI - it was pointless. Maybe they just wanted to test their "evolved CGI skills", bad choice.

Ron "Reinhardt" Perlman was a good choice to cast in this movie, I like him also.

The "flash" granades were a nice addition to weapon collection. And ofcourse the legendary sword from the first movie, it is very nice!

But yeah, a pretty damn good movie!

I think, that this is better than the third one. I mean in points. Blade: Trinity (2004) is maybe more entertaining, and has more nice stars (like Ryan Reynolds, Jessica Biel, Dominic Purcell, Paul "Triple H" Levesque etc...)!

But this is more intelligent, Trinity is... well, kinda "stupid". But the first one will always be the best, like almost every time (in case of movies). Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) may be the only exception to the "rule".

Movie review - Blade

Blade

Director: Stephen Norrington

Writers: David S. Goyer

Actors: Wesley Snipes, Stephen Dorff and Kris Kristofferson

My guess: 6,9? - 2003? (7,1 - 1998)

My Points: 7,5 - 4-/5

Well, this was a good movie - like I remembered.

Wesley Snipes was awesome as "Blade". It was also nice to see Kenny "Heatseeking Dennis" Johnson from one of my favorite TV shows; The Shield (2002–2008).

Stephen "Deacon Frost" Dorff as the bad guy, was a nice role.

"Blood shower" was nice. "Good old movies" have nice scenes, like this one.

But, the CGI effects were pretty terrible. They have been out dated!

"The big fat monster" was funny, it would have to be nice see him/her(?) more.

Kris "Whistler" Kristofferson death was sad. I mean, I didn't cry (who cries on Blade?!), but it was very sad.

The "final battle" was pretty nice. Not the best, but not the worst...

But overall, a pretty damn good movie! Don't know about the sequals, but I quess they are at least pretty "ok". I mean, I have seen them. But it's so long time when I saw them, so...

But let's find out in a couples of days.

Movie review - The Crow

The Crow

Director: Alex Proyas 

Writers: James O'Barr, David J. Schow and John Shirley

Actors: Brandon Lee, Michael Wincott and Rochelle Davis

My guess: 7,7? - 1991? (7,5 - 1994)

My Points: 7,8 - 4/5

Ou my god..!! An very excelent movie, this is how movies could be made. And they did, in the ninetys, that oblivously is my favorite decade!

So many good movies, I would take forever to list - so I spare of that (me and you, the possible reader).

Or maybe one, The Rock (1996) is also awesome!

But back to this awesome movie. The plot was excelent, little bit simple - but good enough. The flashback's introducing what has happened to Brandon "Eric" Lee, nice job.

The "actual" crow was a nice feature.

Ernie "Albrecht" Hudson and Rochelle "Sarah" Davis were intresting guy(s)/girl(s). And the bad guys were also good, Michael "Top Dollar" Wincott and Tony "Grange" Todd.

"There Ain't No Coming Back" scene was nice, good acting and music fit nicely.

And the action scenes, f*cking awesome! Compared to these days shitty movies (and their action scenes), this was so good.

I just wanted to watch it over and over. I mean, when I was watching this - I just wanted to watch it again and again. This was so good.

And maybe I will, not just the best parts - but the whole movie again (and again...)! You just don't get tired in good movies like this.

I'm speechless, excelent movie - which I recommend to everyone, no matter the age or sex.

Movie review - Ocean's Eight

Ocean's Eight

Director: Gary Ross

Writers: Gary Ross, Olivia Milch and George Clayton Johnson

Actors: Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett and Anne Hathaway

My guess: 6,6? - 2019? (6,3 - 2018)

My Points: 6,8 - 3½/5

Well, what would I say...

This wasn't a shitty movie, but a little bit disappointment.

This movie has a nice cast (Sandra "Debbie Ocean" Bullock, Cate "Lou" Blanchett, Anne "Daphne Kluger" Hathaway, Nine "Rihanna" Ball and Awkwafina "Constance"), but still it failed! At least in my opinion.

I remembered that this was an eight (pun intended) movie, but it's only a seven out of ten.

It was nice to see Elliott "Reuben" Gould, although it was just an cameo. And we saw George "Danny Ocean" Clooney, but only by an picture.

James "John Frazier" Corden and Shaobo "Yen" Qin was also nice to see.

Overall, a pretty decent movie - but...

Mediocre movies aint so nice, good are obviously good/great - and bad are so bad that they usually are funny, 'cause of that (that they suck!).

But mediocre is just boring, mediocre shit...

So I rather watch good or shit, not this... shit?
