Highlander: The Source (2007)
Worst of all time
Maybe I don't get out much, but this is the worst film I have seen. The concept was stupid, the action scenes crap, and I couldn't believe any one would try to destroy this story of the Highlander as it was done.
My advice is to not watch this film. Not even glance at a trailer. Pretend it never happened.
The whole 'immortal' concept only worked because it was fit into a mundane world. Hence, the plots of the presentations had to stand on their own, and the mandatory head taking was simply there.
By moving into extreme idiocy, example, the Source, the entire fabric of the show is destroyed.
There is no part of this film that makes sense, save Joe going out to find Duncan, and having to 'kill' him to get him into the car.
That's all that made sense.
The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
The importance of this sci-fi movie to the genre
This is one of the most important Science Fiction movies ever made. It is intelligent, and the fear factor is produced because one fully believes Klaatu, (Michael Rennie). It seems perfectly logical that someone who looks human would be sent to warn a world of impending doom with a all powerful robot as a 'body guard'. And the manner in which Klaatu 'proves' his power, (world wide electricity blackout) is so reasonable.
This movie, as the previous commentator stated, opened my mind to possibilities and made me a life long sci-fi...(good sci-fi) fan for life.
One has to view this movie in the context of the time it was made, what people understood, and not need the fx to tell a story.
The Pest (1997)
Two Barf Bags
This was the worst movie I have ever seen. I have to admit I didn't watch it from beginning to end as cleaning the toilet was more entertaining.
The 'star' was the most unpleasant character I've ever seen, neither funny nor attractive, in fact, creepy and obnoxious are far too complimentary.
It is painful to watch, there is no acting, especially not from the star who behaves as a doped up mentally deficient take off on one of those loud mouthed black actors.
As horrible as it is to watch one of those can't shut up black actors, watching a Puerto Rican one is even worse.
The name of the movie is descriptive, he is the pest. This movie is a must miss.
