Hollywood dick rips off a kid's story. Then it becomes sort of like Home Alone, if Kevin had gone on the offense instead of playing defense. Contains both Jaleel White and Dustin Diamond.

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0926084/ Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1]
The shit hits the fan. Even with only half a book to cover some pretty big stuff is left out, but definitely feels less rushed than the previous few.

January 29, 2011

Mega Piranha

Much better than Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus, in that this movie doesn't take a break from the ridiculous to have pieces of boring.  It's just balls-to-the-wall crazy.  Recommended.

Birdemic: Shock and Terror

A one note movie, but what a ridiculously insane note.  Possibly the strangest climate change warning flick yet.

Black Dynamite

What Lost Skeleton did for 50s sci-fi movies, Black Dynamite does for 70s blaxploitation movies.  Black Dynamite (the character) could kick the asses of all characters from movies I've reviewed.

Lady in the Water

Ordinary people stumbling upon extraordinary circumstances.  Very compact, taking place entirely in and around an apartment building.  I enjoyed.

Serenity

Firefly wasn't really a "heroes save the world" type of show, but they pretty successfully elevate it to major issues in its own way here.

May 4-5, 2011

The Godfather

Veteran becomes increasingly involved in the family business, finds it a transformative experience.  Also long, dramatic, and well acted.

Big Fat Liar

Hollywood dick rips off a kid's story. Then it becomes sort of like Home Alone, if Kevin had gone on the offense instead of playing defense. Contains both Jaleel White and Dustin Diamond.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

The shit hits the fan. Even with only half a book to cover some pretty big stuff is left out, but definitely feels less rushed than the previous few.
