Insidious 2.......absolute piece of shit. Its a rip off of Poltergeist 2 and The Shining and doesn't even pretend not to be. Its not scary and its boring. And its confusing. I can't believe this came from the same director that did THE CONJURING, a vastly superior film.
Prisoners...a great film that plays almost like a horror film. Imagine the horror of having your young daughter and her friend go missing. What is a father to do but kidnap the retarded suspect and torture him to get answers. This was a great film that had a few unexpected twists along the way.
Captain Phillips.....Tom Hanks gives a competent performance as the Captain of a cargo ship that is taken hostage by a group of skinny assed Somalians, and possibly even one Starvin' Marvin from South Park. Great tension and drama made this an entertaining film.
Gravity......not nearly as good as everyone is saying and certainly not Oscar worthy, but still a very entertaining piece of art that takes place in space, a scary fucking place to run out of air. Not enough Clooney and too much Bullock....never did think much of her.
Machete Kills.....please kill me rather than having to sit through another one of these boring flicks, although the promised third Machete Kills:In Space looks like it could be so bad its good. Its like a rip off of Moonraker and Empire Strikes Back if it starred a short, scarred faced Mexican.
Carrie (2013).....totally unnecessary remake that is boring, and misses the point so nicely made in the book and in the original film. Chloe Moretz gives her first bad performance as she overplays Carrie and starts flying around the gymnasium with her special powers. It was ridiculous.
