Freddy vs. Jason (2003)
A new breed of Horror franchising has emmerged
Freddy Krueger is in the pits of hell for his unforgivable sins for the decades of being a child serial-killer and in this new milliniuem things have changed and the kids have changed... He's know forgotten, but not fully. Soon Krueger enlists the help of Camp Crystal Lake's natorius mass-murder Jason Voorhess, soon Jason begins the blood shed and the childeren of Elm Street begin to have nightmares (which is Freddy's main intention) unfortunatley Jason kills of too many of Freddy's so-called "childeren" and all hell breaks loose when both immortal killers begin their battle from the neighbourhoods of Elm Street to the woods and cabins of Camp Crystal Lake... PLACE YOUR BETS!
This is a great new kind of horror flick (besides Dracula VS. The Wolf or the Jason VS. Leather-Face comic).
Cons: *Could've been exploited for both more fun and publication. *Story sort've feels held back and it've should've gotten more film duration and budget. *More script work. *Overall the teens suck too-much screen time.
Pros: *Different horror flick for both fans of the franchise and one of the most guilty of all guilty plesures. *All the scenes with both immortal killers fight, cut, slice 'n' dice at eachother. *One of my all time favs. *Good care-free friday/saturday night flick.
Verdict: 8.5 out of 10 "The ultimate guilty plesure."
Cowboy Bebop: Tengoku no tobira (2001)
Best T.V. turned feature length movie ever.
Mars, 2071 before Halloween 2071 a tanker explodes in the middle of mar's peak-hour traffic and an epidemic of an unkown nerve-gas/bio-warfare has killed over 150 and the bounty for the lone bio-terrorist is 30 million woolongs... Guess which crew's in town? Spike, Jet, Faye, Ed and Ein track down the bio-terrorist (Vincent Volaju) and his known accomplisnces unfortunatley, the government/military are some how involved with the creation of the nerve-gas/bio-warfare... This is gonna be one hell of'a ride for Spike and the crew to track down Vincent before he destroys everyliving thing on mars.
Cons: *This should've won the Academey Award! *More script work. *Should've had an actual cinematic realese and more publication! *Should've gone for a longer film duration.
Pros: *One of my all time favs. *The plot, action, storyline, character development and comic relife as well as the philosophy. *Great voice acting, escpacilly Steven Jay Blum a.k.a. David Lucas. *A highly enjoyable Sci-Fi film, much better rather then the Matrix or Star Wars episode I or II.
Verdict: 9 out of 10, "One of the best Anime movies I've seen in 2003!"
Narc (2002)
Best crime thriller in years.
Nick Tellis has been suspended for the accidental stray bullet that nearly killed a preagnet woman, months later Nick is assigned to work with hard-boiled detective, Henry Oak in a homicide investigation linking two dope peddlers to the death of a fellow narcotic officer.
Cons: *A bit slow in most of the film's duration. *An obsense of any kind of action.
Pros: *Gritty, brutally honest and a gem of a film to look at despite it's classification. *Nothing over the top like a Vin Disel, Bruce Willis, Alec Baldwin, Treat Williams, Mel Gibson, Tommy Lee Jones or Tom Cruise film.
*This should really win an Acedemy Award or an Oscar, eh, eh? *The film features the highly talented Ray Liota and rapper, Busta Rhymes. *One of my all time favs.
Verdict: 7.5 out of 10, "Gritty, burtaly honest and nothing too fancy."
