Genre:
Horror
Average:
25 reviews

It was good. I didnt expect much so I wasnt let down in any way.

Plenty of gore and enough plot to keep me interested between the nasty parts. The only thing I didnt get was how the main dude knew to go from scene to scene. Either I missed something or they just didnt explain where he was getting his clues from.

Oh yeah and the camera work a bit nausiating

Mildly entertaining.
Way too many reused plot lines and jokes from the series. Overall I'd say MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT.

Spider-Man 3

Category:
Movie
Director:
Sam Raimi

2007
Genre:
Action & Adventure
Average:

I got what I expected:

Mildly entertaining, terrible acting, a butchered plot when compared to original saga, and good special effects.

I saw it at an aging Cineplex Odeon so it was worth the $6.50 I paid.

Completely over the top. I cant remember the name of the Rodriguez one, but it as reallllllly funny. So many unnecessary explosions. So many campy cleavage and booty shots. And the guy that collects testicles? Classic.

But yeah, Deathproof (Tarantino) sucked. Too slow considering what it came after and simply not interesting. I couldnt care less about what happened to the characters.

Having said that it still gets 4 starts despite me walking out of Deathproof 45 minutes in.

BORING!!!

Two and three and lowest prime multiples, so of course youre going to come by it a lot. And there wasnt enough hidden in the movie to keep me interested. Jim Carey should stick to comedic sociopath roles.

Oh yeah, and the ending was a total cop out.

Im usually not a fan of red beer or the cheap ass brews at Laker, so I was surprised when I liked this one. It tastes light for 5.5%'er and leaves a pleasant after taste.

Four Stars... maybe 4.5 considering the price

Subpar for a premium. Even when fresh this beer seems to have that lingering skunky taste that is associated with UV light damage.

A suitable alternative would be Rickards Pale Ale.

Fear & Loathing on the Campaign Trail ’72

Category:
Book
Author:
Dr. Hunter S. Thompson
Year:
1973
Genre:
Nonfiction
Average:
2 reviews

A fascinating account of George McGovern's rise to fame on the American political stage. HST gets right in there from the first primary in true gonzo style. Its easy to get swept up in the hype surrounding one of the first grassroots campaigns in modern times as you see key players like Hubert Humphery and Ed Muskie pull out their dirty tricks only to be trumped by the master, Richard Nixon in the end.

Outstanding flick.

Its not often you'll come across a movie in the "gangster" genre that captures the art of character developement so well.

I also missed a new years because of this.

These days if i want to drink potent piss I'll take a Max Ice, Faxe Extra Strong, or Bavaria (the 8.6, not the light brazillian kind)
