Lake Mungo (2008)
A movie that actually scared me
Well the movie itself has some flaws. It has some parts that is really unnecessary. But the allover story is really interesting.
It is one of the slowest horror/mystery movies I've seen, but i think that it benefits from it. The scares are mostly...not really scares, but they will get you goosebumps for sure. But you really have to stay the entire movie to get the entire thing. The end is what made it for me. People are comparing it to paranormal activity, and I get that, but the matter a fact is that these two movies are not very similar, the only thing really is that they use some home movie style footage.
Anyway, its a good movie if you like slow movies, and good scares. But its no movie theater material.
Qi jian (2005)
Cant decide
OK. the very first scene of this movie brings the expectation down. The movie in it self is actually good, its a cool idea and the actors are good. but the movie is really badly edited. some clips have nothing to do with the movie itself. like for example in a scene they find a 1000 year old sword that is superior to all swords on the face of earth. but thats it... they never use or talk about the sword again in the entire movie. i mean what is that? the fighting scenes are entertaining but far from good, it is obvious that they have used wires and stuff like that because it looks like the actors ar'nt ready when they make a big jump and they are kind of dragged away. It almost feels like watching one of those old b- action movie like "teenage mutant ninja turtles or 3 ninjas" something like that. i was disappointed in the movie but i laughed the entire time. it felt like a comedy.
The 4400 (2004)
Rip of?
When this commercial for this series came out i wanted to See it so bad. I called of everything i had planned and sat in the couch just waiting for the show. When it started i was stuck, but after a while i started to recognize things.
After the first episode i did not want to watch it anymore. i was repelled by it.
Have none of you ever noticed that the 4400 is taking music, story, and even dialogs and scenes from other series?
In the first episode they use the theme music from "kingdom hospital" and then they use the story with all the people who gets a special ability and even a scene from a Swedish series called (in English) "the affected".
Sure it's an interesting series but with this much "stolen" material i don't want to watch it anymore.
