Freaky-ish Trailer for Apollo 18 (2011)

I've seen posters and clips for this here film, but didn't know much about it until now. It looks like a pretty interesting way of portraying events of a Moon landing mission. Synopsis: A film about the real Apollo mission to the moon in the 70's that was canceled by NASA... or so they claim. OooOoO. Freaky. Kazed.

Kazed reviews: Skyline (2010)

Synopsis: Strange lights descend on the city of Los Angeles, drawing people outside like moths to a flame where an extraterrestrial force threatens to swallow the entire human population off the face of the Earth I'll keep this short. This film was wtf. The film could've done without the first 15 minutes. For realsies. It was complete and utter nonsense. Wasn't needed, wasn't required, wasn't needed, wasn't required. Was.not.needed. Let me give you my list of shit that pierced my rectum for this film:

• The Aliens are never explained.
• Over usage of slow motion, I mean, what the eff? It's used at the most unnecessary time, it really pulled on my pubes.
• The shitty acting
• How it tried to be different with it's handheld-style camera work. Newsflash, dumbass, it's been done.
• BRAINSUCKINGALIENS. REALLY?
• The shitty acting
• The shitty acting

Really, it was a recipe for disaster. The guy from 24, (Eric Balfour) was (I guess) the main character in this here flick, and to be honest with you, I didn't care. Truthfully speaking, the only commendable aspect for the film was the visuals, but even then, it was like two occasions. So, watching it was not that unbearable, it was a watchable film, but then it got to the last 10 minutes, and OH MY GOD. Seriously, what were they thinking? How is that EVEN possible? (Now, for those of you who haven't seen it, <scroll over for SPOILERS> a guy dies, his brain is somehow 'special' compared to others, so this brain gets implanted into one of these aliens, and this alien he becomes, saves his fianceé from possible termination. So then- forget it. Just don't watch it, I beg you) It just didn't make any sense whatsoever, then again, neither did the rest of the film, but this was just blerg. Anyway, gets a 3/10 from me.

Whip It review

Synopsis: In Bodeen, Texas, an indie-rock loving misfit finds a way of dealing with her small-town misery after she discovers a roller derby league in nearby Austin Being Drew Barrymore's directorial debut, I wasn't sure what to expect. Seeing the cast that was involved with this film, I was slightly impressed. Ellen Page (Juno, The Tracey Fragments), Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development), Kristen Wiig (Knocked Up, SNL) to name a few. Whip It was a great film. That's putting it real bluntly. There were so many elements to this film I thoroughly enjoyed, but one of the main elements which really impressed me was the performance by Page. Although she had already impressed me with her past work, I felt as though her character in Whip It was perfectly suited for her. Drew Barrymore, playing the brilliantly named 'Smashley Simpson' had a semi-prominent role in the film, playing one of the 'Hurl Scouts' more experienced roller-girl. I have to address the scene with Bliss/Babe Ruthless and the boy from the band; I wasn't a fan. There were shots during this scene I admired, but ultimately really thought they should have been left out of the final cut, simply because I didn't think they belonged. Overall though, Whip It had a good mix of humour, emotion, a little action (In the form of Roller-Derby-ing), and of course, sex appeal. With an admirable story and a mix-bag of talent, Whip It definitely delivers and definitely an excellent directorial debut by Smashley Simpson. 8/10 Kazed
