"Paintball" (2009)

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qabBbJPxFMQ

 

A group of bickering twenty-somethings head off into the woods for a so-called "extreme paintball" experience... but soon they're being picked off one by one by someone using live ammo, not paintballs. Shaky-cam hilarity ensues.

 

"Paintball" could have been a decent suspense/thriller but the amateur-night performers and sloppy direction kill this one virtually from the get-go. The characters are all cardboard cut outs with no depth to them, so you don't even care when they start getting killed off. None of the performers can act, either, so even if the script did give them more to do than stumble around in the woods screaming at each other, they probably wouldn't have been able to pull it off anyway.

 

"Paintball" wishes it was "The Most Dangerous Game," but it's more like a cheap mix of bits stolen from "Hostel" and "Blair Witch Project," with some action movie cliche's sprinkled on top. Avoid.

Huge Cusack fan, but thought this was just ok.

Rainy Saturday yesterday...lotsa movie watchin'.

 

With the kids:
"An American Tail" (1985)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6jl0Vch6Z0

In this animated flick from Steven Spielberg and Don "All Dogs Go To Heaven" Bluth, little Fievel Mousekowitz emigrates from Russia to New York at the turn of the 20th century. Along the way he gets separated from his family and when he finally reaches America he learns that the streets aren't quite "paved with cheese" as he'd been promised. A fun movie that also serves as a nice little history lesson for the young'ins.

 

"Fathom" (1967)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHxYiuvivLc

Racquel Welch stars as professional sky-diver "Fathom" Harvill, who gets mixed up with spies and jewel thieves while on tour in Spain. This is a light, breezy espionage thriller (obviously inspired by the James Bond series) with a silly plot but plenty of gorgeous Spanish scenery - and of course lots of revealing shots of Welch herself, who was quite possibly the hottest woman in the world at this time. Watch it for the eye candy, don't worry about the plot.

 

"Cat People" (1982)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pegqV1jTzHg

Natassia Kinski and Malcolm McDowell star in this artsy, new-wavey update of the 40s horror classic as a brother and sister who carry an ancient feline curse which proves to be fatal to a number of New Orleans citizens. Lotsa style and plenty of gratuitous nudity and gore. Cool stuff.

"Blind Faith" with Charles S. Dutton and Courtney B. Vance. Excellent movie.

The Dead Pool - Gotta love Dirty Harry!

Ghost Rider 2 - What a pile of crap, Jesus...

"The Sitter" with Jonah Hill....Mindless fun.

"The Sitter" with Jonah Hill....Mindless fun.

 

 

Yeah, this one surprised me. I thought, "Damiit, I didn't think I'd like a Jonah Hill film."

Then "21 Jump Street" came out, and there were two.

[JamesEagle]

Ghost Rider 2 - What a pile of crap, Jesus...

 

Best comic character ever, imo. Shit film though.

[JamesEagle]

Quantum of Solace

 

Not bad at all, decent enough Bond film. The baddie is a bit shit though.

"Silent Hill" (2006)

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2M8iYL8suw

 

Bizarre horror/thriller (based on a series of video games, with which I am unfamiliar) about a little girl who sleepwalks and has recurring nightmares about a town called "Silent Hill." Her adoptive mother decides to take her to the now-abandoned ghost town for a bit of "shock therapy" but gets more than she bargained for when she uncovers zombies, monsters, demons and a crazed religious cult ... and yeah, believe it or not, it just gets weirder from there.

 

This movie piles on the spooky atmosphere in spades but the story became more and more confused the longer the movie went on. The great visuals and FX (and a cool ultra violent gory finale straight outa "Hellraiser") redeem it somewhat.

While I never did watch the original Odd Couple movie from the 60s, I DID enjoy the TV Series, and well Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau are just magic together.... May they both rest in peace..... Just a wonderful funny movie....

"Moontrap" (1989)

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=270j3YK2YMU

 

Obscure, low-budget sci-fi cheez with Walter "Star Trek" Koenig and Bruce "Evil Dead" Campbell as a pair of lunar astronauts who discover an ancient race of killer robot something-or-others hiding on the dark side of the moon. Obviously this isn't Shakespeare by any means, but it's a fun "B" movie with charmingly cheesy old-school special FX.

Pale Rider.....another pretty good Eastwood western....

 

Yeah, one of my favourites ... along with High Plains Drifter
