Movie review - The Terminator

The Terminator

Director: James Cameron

Writers: James Cameron, Gale Anne Hurd and William Wisher

Actors: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn

My guess: 8,4? - 1981? (8,1 - 1984)

My Points: 8,5 - 4+/5

Now this is some good - an awesome, movie! The music is great, legendary!

"What the hell" trashman is funny, I have always laughed at that (when he says "what the hell", in a funny style).

The hooligans are nice! "Nice night for a walk, eh?", "wash day tomorrow? Nothing clean, right?", so funny. You can recognise one (or all) of the punks; Bill "Punk Leader" Paxton. And then there is the police, Lance "Vukovich" Henriksen. Why I mention these guys? Well, they're both in Aliens (1986) - btw which James Cameron directed.

The gunstore scene was nice, "Uzi 9mm". Then Terminator loaded the shotgun, and... Good stuff!

Hunting "Sarah Connor" were also nice. Although, how primitive the Terminator was?! He could't recognise Sarah... He's a machine, from the future!? Well, this was the first movie, so... I guess they evolved! But they got way too skillful in the later movies. Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) is still okay, I mean T1000. But on the later movies, when the 'machines' can operate many moving cars and shit like that - and bullets don't do nothing (same thou with T1000)! That went too far... I like this simple Terminator.

The "machine war", well... I have hated it even from childhood, it is just boring to watch!?

The cops, I mean two 'main' cops - were nice! I already mentioned Lance, Paul "Traxler" Winfield were also good.

Bar scene were nice, "come with me if you wanna live" - awesome!

The story/history/future, by telling Michael "Kyle Reese" Biehn was intresting and nice. The psychologist Earl "Silberman" Boen was funny, I have always liked him (from T2 to T1, first I saw T2).

That was a nice scene, when The Terminator repaired him/it-self, nice to see him 'suffer'.

"I'll be back", legendary!

Police station shooting were nice.

And at the end, "ur terminated" - nice!

I havent mention Arnold or Linda?! Well, everyone knows them, so... Usually I dont have lots to say about woman actors, but Linda "Sarah Connor" Hamilton is a awesome character! She's (Sarah) and he's (Kyle) love romance was nice. And btw, Sigourney "Ripley" Weaver is also awesome, if I can 'jump around'.

And ofcourse Arnold "The Terminator" Schwarzenegger, awesome stuff! Arnold is like, well... born to play The Terminator, he's so good at it!

But then, well... I could watch T2 and review that! It's just a little bit better in grade, but now'a'days I like more T1. It so simple, and good! Do I will give T2 five stars, well... that we will see later...

Movie review - The Gentlemen

The Gentlemen

Director: Guy Ritchie

Writers: Guy Ritchie, Ivan Atkinson and Marn Davies

Actors: Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, Michelle Dockery, Hugh Grant, Henry Golding and Colin Farrell

My guess: 6,6? - 2020? (7,8 - 2019)

My Points: 7,1 - 3½/5

I aint gotta lots to say about this one. This wasn't bad, but neither that good - but I just got nothing to say...

There were lots of good actors, nice cast! You can trust in Guy Ritchie.

The slang was nice, and so was the story.

But what I didn't like, was that this tried so hard to be witty - but it didn't succeed! At least in my opinion, that was a big minus...

But overall, a pretty good movie - which I can recommend you to see... Especially if you like Guy Ritchies work! I could definately watch some of his old works (like "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels - 1998" & "Snatch - 2000") - those are some good movies!

Movie review - Assassins

Assassins

Director: Richard Donner

Writers: Lilly Wachowski, Lana Wachowski and Brian Helgeland

Actors: Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas and Julianne Moore

My guess: 6,3? - 1996? (6,3 - 1995)

My Points: 7,0 - 3½/5

Nice, good - 90's movie. I liked this one! I mean I have 'always' like this, 'cause I have seen this about ten times.

The chemistry between Sylvester "Robert Rath" Stallone and Antonio "Miguel Bain" Banderas was nice! Cool names also, btw...

Chess was nice addition. The action were also very nice, Miguel was on a roll! There where couple of nice explosion's - altough, there were pretty bad CGI when it (explosion) wasn't real. But when it was (real) - if it was?! It although seemed to be - it was very nice looking!

The chatting were pretty funny, at least with Miguel (and the 'bad guy'), Miguel loosing his nerve.

The bank scene were pretty nice, Miguel being very nervous and sweatting.

The ending twist were pretty nice. But only "nice", not great...

But a very good action flik from the 90's, which I definately recommend to everyone. There is lots of others stuff, than blasting off with guns. Good movie, I liked!

Movie review - Fortress: Sniper's Eye

Fortress: Sniper's Eye

Director: Josh Sternfeld

Actors: Jesse Metcalfe, Bruce Willis and Chad Michael Murray

My guess: 2,8? - 2022? (2,9 - 2022)

My Points: 2,8 - 1½/5

Oh my good, even shittier movie than the first one...

Which I kinda knew/predicted! I aint gotta lots to say about this travesty!?

Bruce Willis had way too short role, but he was so tired - that I understand...

What was the flashbacks..?! They showed clips from the previous film about two minute long (or longer) :yawn: Who cares, expecially if you have just watched the first shitty movie... You haft to live it again?!

Man, i mean - they could have not edited them shorter? No, they showed full clips...

And what was the slo-mo's, they were horrible! They just looked that it was lagging?! Bad connection, or shit like that...

And they used the same actors from the first movie. They had miracle-survided :yawn:

Oh my god, what a two horrible shitty movies - I dont recommend them to anyone. Except if you wanna suffer (or maybe a movie night with friends, if you wanna laught to a stupid movies)!

Horrible, horrible...

Movie review - Fortress

Fortress

Director: James Cullen Bressack

Actors: Jesse Metcalfe, Bruce Willis and Chad Michael Murray

My guess: 3,3? - 2021? (3,2 - 2021)

My Points: 3,8 - 2/5

What a shitty movie...

Who has the desire to watch some stupid cameras? Let me go back...

Bruce "hasbin" Willis were in a... what would you call it - retirement house with guards. And nothing happening there. Until this shitty movie started...

So, there were three guys watching cameras (with computer) - who has the lust for watching some cameras when nothing happens?! Well, if they got paid 10k a month - then I understand...

Same with the vault, but even more stupider job! You just secure the vault's door, by watching in to the biz... He (or she) had a co-worker, but I dont think they could speak to each others...

So two zero-meaningles jobs, who would have done these?! At least, in the camera job you see other scenery by different cameras - and maybe sometimes play 'solitaire'. But watching some vault with nothing do to - dont know...

Okay, guards watch president castles (at least in here Finland), but they see the scenery/traffic/other people - and they are securing a nice castle. But some vault, with empty halls - dont think so...

Bruce Willis were tired, you could see that he doesn't care! It was nice to see Sean "Vlad" Kanan. Yes, I have watched The Bold and the Beautiful (1987 - ). I like Kanan!

And how they (good, or bad guys) founded themself in the 'forest' (garden, or what ever...), so stupid! And they were almost always alone, wondering in some stupid 'forest' - just so that they can be killed easily :yawn: Lazy writing!

And what is that, that when the camera starts to film bad/good guys - they haft to reload they're weapons?! And that stupid sound (when they reload...)! Well, that stupidy is also in good movies - but that I can accept, but now in a shitty movie like this...

Movie review - Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

Director: Oliver Stone

Actors: Shia LaBeouf, Michael Douglas, Carey Mulligan and Josh Brolin

My guess: 6,2? - 2018? (6,2 - 2010)

My Points: 6,8 - 3+/5

This wasn't that great, as the first was. But still, this was a pretty good film.

Shia "Jake Moore" LaBeouf was good, or mediocre - I kinda cant stand him. Although, my hate has mellowed - but... enough of that!

Jake's mentors Frank "Louis Zabel" Langella 'train suicide' was nice - honourable & sad, but nice... Chemistry between them (Jake & Louis) was nice!

Susan Sarandon (just titled "Jake's Mother") were nice addition, Carey "Winnie Gekko" Mulligan were also nice. Not forgetting 'the original' Gekko...

Motorcycle scene between Jake & Josh "Bretton James" Brolin was cool! Josh was an nice addition to 'the team'.

And yet again, (Gordon) Gekko screwed up his own. It was out to expected, and kinda 'boring predictable' - but it was o.k.a.y. to watch!

The daughter's child 'lever' was a nice.

Eli "Julius Steinhardt" Wallach was also a nice character. Him turning to Gekko at the end, was 'funny'.

Movie review - Wall Street

Wall Street

Director: Oliver Stone

Actors: Charlie Sheen, Michael Douglas, Martin Sheen, Tamara Tunie, Daryl Hannah, John C. McGinley and Terence Stamp

My guess: 7,1? - 1988? (7,3 - 1987)

My Points: 7,3 - 4-/5

This was a good movie, I like 80-90's movies. Main main actor pair - Charlie "Bud Fox" Sheen & Michael "Gordon Gekko" Douglas - were great! I also liked Charlie's (also real) father Martin "Carl Fox" Sheen.

The beginning of the movie was quite boring, but as along the movie went - it got better... When Bud finally succeeded, it was a nice scene where he bought the nice apartment "I offer 'xxx' amount of this".

The wrangling between Bud and his father Carl was nice, later or the hospital scene were even better - very touching...

Terence "Sir Larry Wildman" Stamp were interesting character, he "could buy Gekko six time" (or something like that) - it was nice!

I'm gonna spoil, that Gekko screwed Bud over. The "revenge plan" was nice, that I aint gonna tell - did that work. You just have to watch the movie, which I definately recommend.

At the end, the "dead office" was nice. What happened? Watch the movie...

Also at the very end, the "stylish grass with skyscraper view" scene were also nice.

Overall, a great movie! Maybe a little bit boring, expecially at the beginning. But you just gotta 'adjust' to that. Or maybe you like this all the way, but indeed to me it was a little bit boring...

Movie review - Interstellar

Interstellar

Director: Christopher Nolan

Actors: Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain

My guess: 8,1? - 2017? (8,6 - 2014)

My Points: 7,8 - 4/5

What I wrote down; "I smell quality". Well, I've seen this movie couple of times, so... It was more an knowledge, instead of a guess - this is a damn good movie!

There were alot of good actors, like John Lithgow [I have always liked him, from Cliffhanger (1993) & 3rd Rock from the Sun], Michael Caine, Casey Affleck (I like him too, maybe even more that Ben) and... ofcourse the main stars; Matthew "Cooper" McConaughey & Anne Hathaway, they were great - expecially McConaughey. He (Matthew) was the best this movie offered, and ofcourse the "settings".

The goodbyes between Cooper and his daughter were touching.

The robots ("TARS" & "CASE") were funny. I mean, I dont mean "funny", they were nice - and cool! The ship flying and cornering was also cool!

The music was excelent. I aint gonna search who he/she (the composer) was, but I can quess it was someone "big". Maybe Nolans favorite.

The wave scene were intense, and nice.

"Matt Damon", I was surprised?! Although I have seen this movie, it still was a surprise. Dont know, that have The Martian (2015) nothing to do with this..?

Video messages was nice, and touching.

The end was, well... it was good, but... I dont know, could it have been better? But overall, a very great movie - which I definately recommend you to see! Forget the "shitty" movies, this is "A MOVIE"..!!
