Pulse (I) (2006)
1/10
Help me.
12 August 2006
Warning: Spoilers
Help Me. Help Me. Help Me. Help Me. Help Me. Help Me.

If I say it enough times will my review be good? Maybe I shouldn't be asking that question... maybe I should be asking a more important question. Do you want to see ghosts? If I ask that question repeatedly, I bet you will all be highly impressed. No? Darn, all the useful lessons I learned from this great film don't seem to be panning out!

Seriously though, this movie was very very bad. I was in hysterics through most of it. And at the end, I just couldn't help but wonder why they didn't just cut the power to the city? Last time I checked, signals being present infers that technology is present. They said all this trash about abandoning cell phones and PDA's and what not, and then you have some terrible punch out ending where the girl says "Oh, the cities? yeah, we can never go back, we lose. bye."

Overall Movie Grade:F- | Laughability: B+ | Energy Drain: High | Anger Factor: 37.9/50.0 | Practicality: 2.3/50.0

Terrible. F-
19 December 2005
This movie has no business holding the name of Star Wars. It's got some lightsabers... I'll give you that. I hear a lot of people trying to explain this movie in an attempt to downplay how terrible it really was. I don't see the point in that. The original movies were made a certain way, with a certain level of quality. These were not. If Lucas ran out of good script ideas then he should have listened to some fans or better yet, the authors of his book series. They don't seem to have trouble coming up with interesting stories that fit nicely into the Star Wars universe. Star Wars is not about stupid CG characters who are clinically retarded or droids that double as ninjas.

Sin City (2005)
10/10
One of the greatest films ever
7 April 2005
In my humble opinion, Sin City was one of the best movies I have ever seen. No... never mind. It was hands down the best movie I've ever seen. This movie was ART in the truest sense. This was not a great movie because it appealed to everyone. This was a great movie because it accomplished what it set out to do. Bring a comic to life. It just had that feel, and maintained it throughout the whole movie. The dialog, the cinematography, the use of coloring... It was brilliant. Robert Rodriguez does not disappoint.

My only complaint about the movie is the hordes of ignorant people you will inevitably watch it with. It is just downright disheartening to watch something great with nearly everyone else laughing like idiots at every single part of the movie, especially at parts not even close to funny. Watch the movie KNOWING it is a comic. Then you'll see it as it was meant to be seen.

House M.D. (2004–2012)
The most brilliant medical show to date
7 December 2004
House is a brilliant show medically speaking but so much more than that at the same time. The show is a kind of "24" meets medicine extravaganza. The main character, Dr. Gregory House, is played beautifully by Hugh Laurie. Dr. House is a bitter but brilliant doctor who is crippled in one leg due to the inability of doctors to properly diagnose his problem in time. This makes him a decidedly bitter person when dealing with others yet he is one of the best doctors in his field of diagnostic medicine. He is being forced to serve his clinic hours that he had avoided for a number of years, and this is where the show takes place; in a walk in clinic. Each show is a mysterious new case that puts the patient's life on the line as time runs out. I am disheartened by all of the bad comments people are making about this show, but everyone I have seen this show with and everyone I have shown the show to love it and find it enormously entertaining, funny, and brilliant.

The Punisher (2004)
10/10
A heaping plate of beating!
18 April 2004
I was hesitant to see Punisher after seeing Daredevil and the Hulk but I was in for one hell of a surprise. The Punisher was so damned awesome that I saw it twice in two days. The movie was a series of the biggest beatings you can imagine. Also this movie had the best payback I've ever seen. It was incredibly well done and I never even liked the punisher before. Badillion thumbs up! All I can say is that this was the opposite of Hellboy right down to the characters' one-liners. Hellboy's "Cut to the end, how do I kill it?" VS The Punisher's "God's gonna sit this one out." ? No contest. The Punisher was an awesome movie that hooks you right from the intro till the end. Every line the Punisher gives is badass. What awesomeness....
