I'm a harsh critic. Let's face it: Most movies suck.
However, I do watch a lot of movies, and I'm willing to give just about anything a try -- well, almost anything. I still refuse to see Titanic and a good portion of the comedy movies from the last several years. Okay, so maybe I'm very picky. I'm not asking anyone to agree with me. Go watch your crappy movies and leave me alone. ;) When I have a choice, I'd personally rather watch a movie that requires some thought than one that's cranked out of the Hollywood blockbuster machine. There's far too much mainstream crap in the theatres. For instance, how many times can Hollywood studios remake the same movie? Apparently a lot. Look at the number of "teacher saves a bunch of inner-city kids through dance/writing/song/etc." movies out there; and they're all crap. That said, I have my guilty pleasures. I love watching B-movies, vampire movies and superhero movies. They may not be good films, but they're the kind of popcorn entertainment I like to watch here and there. If you want to chat with me, feel free to start a conversation (using the Conversation tool, not through the Talk section below, please). If you just want to make a comment about me or something I rated or wrote, drop a line in the Talk section below. Spammers will be blocked and their comments deleted. I'll chat with anybody, but I would much rather chat with someone who doesn't write in text message speak. Lack of proper grammar and spelling bugs the hell out of me. However, don't just try to add me as a friend. Everyone in my friends list is someone I know off this site. I'm really only interested in adding people I'm friends with. My name is Chris, and I'm an opinionated jerk. :P |

Hellboy II: The Golden Army (Hellboy 2)
PG-13
The loss of the Lovecraftian feel and the addition of campy silliness ruined what could have been a good movie.

1.
Léon (The Professional)
R
At times sad, at times chilling, this tale of a professional hitman who gets drawn into the affairs of a corrupt DEA agent and the only survivor of the agent's wrath is a spectacular film. As usual, Jean Reno is a terrific actor who portrays the (sometimes naive) hitman, while Natalie Portman shines in her first major role on-screen. My only regret is how long it took me to finally see Léon: The Professional.
2.
Sideways
R
Maybe it's because it's about wine, or maybe it's because Paul Giamatti is one of my favourite actors, or maybe it's because I find the character interactions hilarious, but I love this movie.
4.
The Godfather
R
Definitely one of the best movies ever made. Despite its three-hour length, I can watch this over and over again.
6.
The Crow
R
This dark tale of the dead coming back to seek revenge may be lighter than the graphic novel it was based on (or so I'm told). While the story keeps the movie flowing to its inevitable climax, the characters and their motives are absolutely fascinating to watch. Great movie. One of my favourites.
