Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005)
There is more put in balance here then the force- the reviews also find their center.
Well... there is a large amount of disappointment welling inside me. Don't get me wrong. The movie was in no way bad or awful, but it certainly wasn't great or wonderful. In the end, it's a unworthy finish to a rather notable trilogy.
As would be expected with Star Wars, special effects were incredible. Sabers zinged, blasters fired, all the things we have come to expect. We got to see landscapes and worlds that were incredible to witness. If you are going to this movie to see the crazy effects, you will not be as disappointed as I was.
Now we come to the part that pained me deeply- the acting. I'm not sure what happened. Somewhere between episode II and episode III, the actors seemed to have forgotten everything they went through and who they're characters were. Even the great Ewan Mcgregor seemed to struggle his way through this film, trying to remember his characters motivation and personality. He was not the only one. Almost every actor seemed to struggle as the film continued. I felt like a dagger had been shoved into my heart during certain scenes (which shall remain nameless, of course). There were times I expected some sort of purging of emotion, some showing of intense feelings- these moments never came, and I think the immense emotion showed on my face instead of the actors. I expected too much, I suppose.
There you have it. was the movie bad? not at all, but it wasn't fantastic to me either. I would recommend seeing it, despite the lackluster acting. Just do your best not to get your hopes up.
Devil May Cry 3 (2005)
Clever Clever Clever!
A major improvement over the last installment. The story this time around is very creative in comparison to the last two, and some of the cinemas are incredibly cinematic (Anyone who's seen the opening scene knows what I'm talking about). If you know anyone who has this game, I highly suggest you take a look see at a couple of the cinemas. You will be pleasantly surprised.
The Story: Over two millenia ago, a demon lord named sparda awoke to justice and sealed the door to the underworld. He sealed himself on the other side as well, but not before leaving two sons on the earth: Vergil and Dante. Years later, Vergil arrives to pay a visit to his dear brother atop a giant tower known as the Tem-ni-guru. The tower rips up through the ground right in Dante's backyard, and Dante heads out to pay his older brother a visit...
