For me, its a very comedic film but not a laugh-out-loud movie.  There are lots of funny little things about the film (including Tom Cruise who I didn’t see until the second time he appeared) and its well worth a watch but my sides weren’t split, not even slightly torn.

7/10, you will smile throughout.

You know, its not a great film but its very watchable.  Some of the gore is really well done and the cast aren’t too bad.  Its super cheesey but the look and feel of the film is really well put together.  Its set in the future but looks very much like the past.  Of course you have Sean Pertwee and Ron Perlman so instantly it has to be good, oh and mutants with a long and pointy arm, oh and pointless scenes.

7/10, maybe not one to buy, but certainly one to watch with the brain firmly switched to ‘vacant’.

Brilliant… just utterly brilliant.  Action that you really feel, they certainly aren’t shy with the violence and its how it should be.  Neeson is thoroughly enjoyable to watch and the pain he deals out is fantastic.  REALLY worth watching, a few times over, even if its just to see heads getting smashed into things.

9/10, wow.

The version we watched was the 30th Anniversary addition that has added scenes.  Scenes that were filmed recently and added in to try and… well I’m not sure what they were supposed to have achieved.  Ignoring the rubbish new scenes the film is great, its dated, wooden, cheesy but thats half the fun. 60’s zombies certainly aren’t a patch on todays zombies but its still good fun.

7/10, own it if you are a zombie fan

Very Tim Burton.  Its actually a very sad movie, I’d forgotten about that.  Its quaint, quirky and decidedly dark.

7/10, a good Sunday afternoon flick

Having never seen an of the originals (shock horror I know) I can’t really compare it but I enjoyed it.  Samuel L Jackson versus Christian Bale works well, they work well together… or opposed, however you want to spell it out.  Busta Rhymes puts in a pretty good performance too.  Its a crime thriller extravaganza, its slick, its funny, its full of action, twists and turns.

Well worth the £2.99 I paid. 7/10.

Never have I been filled with as much excitement and fear as when this movie was announced.  The animated movie was and is amazing and the live-action movie had to do a lot to impress.  And it did, taking aside some of the awful cheese, it was very impressive overall.  Great special effects, sound effects and action scenes. Watching the transformers transforming is breathtaking, even if you are not a fan watch it for that alone.

9/10, can’t wait for the sequel

I avoided re-watching this film for a long time.  I was worried that because I loved it so much as a younglin that I’d watch it as an olderlin and it would be ruined.  Luckily it wasn’t, its still plain good fun, thats about it though.

7/10, watch it if its on and theres nothing else to watch.

As it says in the subject, we’ve added a new page.  Dedicated to Will’s runs*… we’ll update each time Will runs, but we wont post each time we update so keep checking if you’re interested in Will’s progress.

*disclaimer – not relating to excretion

While a great movie it certainly was the weakest of the triology, lucky the rubbish 4th film was made so this is now 3rd in my books… or spreadsheets.  Its Bruce Willis being hard and mean and funny.  Its William Saddler being nude and naughty.  Its full of action, cheesy one liners and terrorist killing.

Of course you should own this. 8/10.
