Entertaining, though.  2/5



I'd have given it a higher rating, but i agree with the review: it's a bit of lighthearted entertainment, not a period dramaBig smile

I almost did, but Craig as the Steely Eyed Man of Action and Ford as the Grumpy Old Man are just a little too stereotyped.  The alien machines were interesting, though, and I enjoyed it for a laugh.  I would have liked it better, though, if it turned out justo nce that the old Colt .44 Peacemaker was more than a match for fancy alien metal work.

Now here we disagree.  I rated that series as a solid 5 all the way through, even though they killed off Sean Bean, which is getting to be a habit because they killed him off early in Game of Thrones, too.

That's only the first movie. Below is my review for the Two Towers:


American prince, English hairdresser and bearded Welsh drunk singlehandedly defend castle of decrepit king while a bunch of talking trees kick the butts of Dracula's genetically-modified army

It's well worth seeing Mountainman. Do you remember Steven King's It? That movie made me scared of clowns for years

I just watched the remake of Robin Cook's Coma done as a two-parter for the tube.  Very well done.

This Irish vampire looks so special. Embarrassed The movie is titled Byzantium... It won't be released before early 2013 though. Ouch Her Celtic blue eyes, red hair and pale skin are really attractive. Star

Don't tell me, TITAN, would that be a certain American born Irish lass called Saoirse Ronan by any chance?
What a handsome figure of a dragon. No wonder I fall madly in love with the Alani Dragon now, the avatar, it's a gorgeous dragon picture.
