I Know Who Killed Me (2007)
I Know Who Killed Me and Perfect Stranger have something in common.
They both sucked. I felt like the director was trying to get something across on both films but they failed miserably, like on Perfect Stranger for example, SPOILERS, Hallie Berry was killer. Both films have these set ups where it's like who did it and it's all very predictable. I'd skip this one if I were you. Just awful. Bottom line it wasn't completely the DUI that Lindsay got that tanked the film, it was various aspects: The acting, horrid; the day it was released, honestly July 27th? Me and most people went to the Simpsons Movie instead of seeing this. I mean if Lindsay wasn't in this and had someone like Megan Fox or Michelle Rodriguez : ) then hey, it might have faired better in the box office.
Drop Box (2006)
Heh, Don't Put It In The Drop Box! Spoilers
I saw this for free on Lycos and considering it was free I enjoyed it. The story is about a rental store clerk and a pop star who, wait for it, accidentally puts her sex tape in the drop box. She soon returns to the store to bug the hell out of the cashier to get the tape. The task of getting her tape back is harder than it seems when the clerk simply doesn't give it back but threatens to put it on the internet. She calls the manager, who is an ass. I'll leave it at here with the review, you watch it and see if she gets the tape back. But, I will tell you this, don't expect a masterpiece, it was free on Lycos, but again it was enjoyable.
Yi tin to lung gei: Moh gaau gaau jue (1993)
A film everyone should see ! (Spoilers)
This film is just amazing, Jet Li and Kung-Fu fans will probably get a real kick out of this film. Jet Li is out to avenge his parents death and he meets a prisoner who escaped and she saves his life. They embark on a journey and corruption is exposed in the Wu-Tang. I was 10 when I got my VHS of the film and after viewing, the story is completely jumbled which led it to being one of my all time favorite Jet Li film. This film can make a great viewing experience with friends.This film also has a great cast, Jet Li, Colin Chou, Sammo Hung, Chingmy Yau, and even a cameo appearance by Ekin Cheng (he was the monk who tries to kill Sammo Hung's character at the end of the film). Don't miss it, I found it on DVD with some other Jet Li films for $12.
Chiisaki yûsha-tachi: Gamera (2005)
Gamera is Back (Spoilers Throughout)
I've never been a fan of the older Gamera films, since they were real cheesy compared to the older Godzilla films. The Gamera films of the 90's were great and had a darker tone to it. This is a new Gamera, a mixture of old Gamera with the 90's Films. It starts out with a battle between an old villain of Gamera's, the Gyaos. Now, this Gamera, tough but weak as hell couldn't stand to the challenge and blows himself up. Then thirty years pass to present day in Japan. A man who witnessed Gamera's death is now a grown man with a deceased wife and and son. The son see's a red flashing light on the island where Gamera died, so the kid decides to check out and finds an egg. The egg quickly hatches it and raises and notices he get's unusually bigger and disappears. Then a monster, named Zedus, arrives and causes panic to the town. Then as the boy's father tries to save his son's friend from getting eaten, the once baby turtle is now Gamera and saves the boy's father and friend. Then a battle ensures between the monster and Gamera until the Baby Turtle kicks it's butt and the government step in and take the turtle away. Then Zedus returns to battle Gamera and tries to kill him for good.
This film does drag and we don't see Gamera in his larger stage, it's a little sulcata tortoise running around for the first half-hour. Then when we have action it's pretty much short which is not fun for the older fans of the serious. You can pretty much tell it's aimed at children of like 8 and under. I myself enjoyed it and give it a 7/10.
