Big Stan (2007)
7/10
A pretty decent comedy
23 June 2008
I find the general lack of interest towards this comedy rather disturbing. This message coming all the way from Europe, Bulgaria. The movie is playing in theaters as of this week, and to be honest it is just as hilarious and similarly spirited to other Schneider flicks. I went to see this expecting a few good laughs and that's what you get. The funny moments generally arise from comical situations and actions which lead to a rather expected outcome each time. It is not a sophisticated film, it has no real depth, it is just a feel good, unrealistic comedy, which makes you all warm inside. I apologize for the chaotic and short review, it's just that I find it hard to organize my thoughts in order give this film an adequate presentation. 7 out of 10, doesn't stray too far from all the other Schneider movies, if you've loved his previous work, you'll also enjoy seeing this.

Iron Man (2008)
10/10
Genuinely entertaining. WOW is all I can say!
3 May 2008
This movie has a solid structure. Meaning good acting, directing, producing, special effects, script, everything is well fleshed out to bring to live one of the greatest superheroes to the big screen. Looking past the masterfully executed package that this movie offers, it was genuinely entertaining, I can't remember the last movie I had this much fun watching, much of the time I found myself giggling like an idiot at the comedy, at others I was jumping up and down in my seat, courtesy of the action scenes. Extremely satisfying movie to watch, whether you are a fan of the genre or not. Suitable for the whole family, FUN! Thanks for reading.

Cloverfield (2008)
9/10
Horror made differently, works out well in the end
18 January 2008
I do believe this is one of those movies you either love or hate. For me, it was a breath of fresh air. It was realistic in a way unexpected for a horror/sci-fi flick. It must have been a combination of the first person camera view, along with the acting, which I found to be way above average, since the actors made their fight for survival seem real. You were in for the ride, right besides the protagonists; and what a ride it was. I won't go into any details because the purpose of this review is to make more people go see it and I wouldn't want to spoil anything for them. When all hell broke loose, I felt absolutely submerged in the action, almost like playing a really realistic first person shooter. This movie certainly brought something new to a somewhat aging genre. It's not even about the monsters and people getting killed, it is about changing your point of view and showing you how things can be done differently and still work out in the end, to bring you an emotional thrill ride. Having in mind the budget, I really don't know how they made it work this well, this gem of a movie is up there with the best of them. To sum it up, this movie is great and I thoroughly enjoyed watching it.
