Movie Review – Strange Wilderness
Filed Under Movie Reviews, Movies Not Starring Bruce Willis | Leave a Comment
Steve Zahn is funny, but this film does not best demonstrate this. Supporting cast members who I can’t be bothered to look up are funny, but this film doesn’t best demonstrate this. The outtakes are brilliant, the guy who plays the chunky kid in Superbad seems really funny, especially improvisation wise, and it almost makes it worth making yourself finish the movie. Has some cheap laughs throughout but generally unimpressive.
4/10 – Try again Happy Maddison Productions.

Now, I’d never seen this film growing up and it shows its age but Mr. Murray is still pretty funny. Its very tame but holds the attention all the while.
6/10 – old but by no means bad

Movie Review – Ladder 49
Filed Under Movie Reviews, Movies Not Starring Bruce Willis | Leave a Comment
Here’s a tear jerker for you, ready for your heart-strings to be pulled? Its a nice film (quite slow in places) and not what I was expecting (its not an action-packed thriller) but its still a good film and well worth a watch.
7/10 – well worth a watch

Movie Review – Valentine

Who did it? Its not going to win any awards but its not bad at what it does and, if you are as vacant as me, will keep you guessing til the end. Oh, and for those who like movies for the beautiful people in them, you’ll be happy with this one.
7/10 – Solid, not awe inspiring, but solid.

Movie Review – Pineapple Express
Filed Under Uncategorised | Leave a Comment
Two stoners get into trouble. I wanted more but what I got was still pretty damn enjoyable. As with Superbad its silly but with slightly darker tones, okay MUCH darker tones. There will be bits that’ll have you pissing your pants, others smiling wryly to yourself but you’ll generally be happy with the outcome.
7/10 – not one I’d buy but certainly one I’d laugh about with my friends.

Movie Review – 10 Things I Hate About You
Filed Under Movie Reviews, Movies Not Starring Bruce Willis | Leave a Comment
Its cheesy, its corny, its soppy but I just don’t care because its brilliant. Lots of genuinly funny scenes, great chemistry and of course way better once you’ve watched the outtakes, they looked like they had fun. Oh and its sweet and romantic too, this is one for everyone.
8/10 – Watch it over and over again and you probably wont be bored.

Movie Review – Superbad
Filed Under Movie Reviews, Movies Not Starring Bruce Willis | Leave a Comment
Brilliant, just brilliant. Much better the second time round, I think I’ve now watched it (to fall asleep to) about ten times. Fun, quirky, silly and awesome all in one. Fantastic moments and highly amusing lines throughout.
9/10 – Excellent, there’s no reason not to buy this, unless of course you already have it.

Movie Review – The X Files (1998)
Filed Under Movie Reviews, Movies Not Starring Bruce Willis | Leave a Comment
Mulder & Scully investigate weird things, as always. However dated it is in places its a real easy watch. If you’re an X Files fan its awesome, if you’re not its still not a bad movie at all.
7/10 – switch on, sit back and think of nothing

Movie Review – In Bruges
Filed Under Movie Reviews, Movies Not Starring Bruce Willis | Leave a Comment
Okay so Charlotte, Mummy2 and Bigs didn’t think much to it but I really enjoyed it. Its deliberately awkward and very very funny. Great cast, great plot, just great.
8/10 – for people who like slow movies with awkward humour.

Movie Review – Mirrors
Filed Under Movie Reviews, Movies Not Starring Bruce Willis | Leave a Comment
Films are made or broken by their endings, unfortunately Mirrors was broken by its ending. Its a really intriguing film throughout, quite intense, quite spooky and Kiefer (while I will always call him ‘Jack’) was very convincing.
7/10 – would’ve been higher if it hadn’t let itself down.
