RED(2010) review

Synopsis: When his idyllic life is threatened by a high-tech assassin, former black-ops agent Frank Moses reassembles his old team in a last ditch effort to survive. RED seemed like a cheap version of The Losers at first glance, but then get a little over 30 minutes into the film and it is actually quite the opposite. The Winners. (Oooh...That was BAD) Anyway, the film wasn't exactly the most exciting film I've seen, considering it was a graphic novel adaptation, although nothing could be as bad as X-Men Origins: Wolverine, or The Fantastic Four, the ashcanned version. But hold on a second - I'm not saying this was BAD, I'm just saying it wasn't THAT good. Don't let that detract from seeing it though, because there were several segments within the film which made me chuckle, the reason for this was the awesomeness who was Mary Louis Parker. She made me laugh. She was funny. She was HIGHLARIOUS. Aside from that, there was little in this film which was impressive, other than the stylistic (or is it now becoming generic?) Comic-Book visuals, and that one awesomehellyeahbadass scene when John McClane walks out of the car while it's moving, THAT, was impressive. Not much to mention about RED, the performances were admirable, but felt somewhat forced, like they didn't even want to be there. I mean, fine, whatever, find another film to act in, I don't care. Screw you Morgan Freeman, you weren't even in this film that much anyway. Okay film, fun plot, good performances, MLP was funny. She was. 5.5/10 Kazed

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World(2010) review

Synopsis: Scott Pilgrim's life is so awesome. He's 23 years old, in a rock band, "between jobs," and dating a cute high school girl. Everything's fantastic until a seriously mind-blowing, dangerously fashionable, roller blading delivery girl named Ramona Flowers starts cruising through his dreams and sailing by him at parties. But the path to Ms. Flowers isn't covered in rose petals. Ramona's seven evil exes stand between Scott and true happiness. Can Scott defeat all seven of the bad guys and get the girl without turning his precious little life upside-down, before the game is over? Where to start with this film...never have I been so impressed with a film as I was with SPvTW. From the outset to the very second the credits begin to roll, I was snagged onto this like a hooker on crack. The comic-book style visuals were the effin' icing on the freaking cake. Throughout this imaginative, dazzling effin' thought-provoking thrillride, I felt pushed up against a wall by Tyra Banks then Tyra banks gets her head kicked in by Hulk Hogan. Imagine that feeling. I felt that. it felt great. I know I mentioned in my last post for the Due Date trailer that stars such as Zach Galifianakis and Will Ferrell have been typecast because of the way they portray their characters in the films they star in. There are a few exceptions, in this case, Michael Cera. There hasn't been a single film of Cera's which I didn't love. Sure, he has pretty much the same character in each of his films, but the way he adds a twist on each character is pretty damn entertaining. In this case, it was his a-hole side that was the comical factor here. The performances of each of the cast members here were simply charismatic, namely the Seven Evil Exes, including Chris Evans, who portrayed an a-wipe version of Johnny Storm, and Jason Schwartzman who played the 'boss' of the film. Cera along with M Elizabeth Winstead were absolutely riveting as the lead co-stars, and felt some real-ass chemistry between the two during the 'romantic' scenes. Loved this film, from start to finish, there was never a dull moment. 8/10
