How to train your dragon 2. Darker, deeper than you would think possible for an animated summer release .... 8/10 I've heard good things about it. Just don't think I've got a space on the calendar to take the kids (before it ends its run)

4/10. Bad acting, sound was terrible, not really a story in it or an explanation. - - - Updated - - - 6/10, a decent French alien invasion film - - - Updated - - - 6/10

4/10. Bad acting, sound was terrible, not really a story in it or an explanation. I'd probably go 5/10, just because the Blood Widow was cool, & the actress portraying her did a great job. I did notice one scene where the sound was a little spotty, but other than that, the rest of the production was typical to above average for an indie SOV Slasher & not bad. Acting...meh, I don't come to these kinds of flicks for that. A little gorier than I expected, with a little more of a nasty streak too. Particularly :   torture scene in the basement & the ENDING!!! As for the story:   They spelled it out pretty well: the old house was a school for girls, the headmaster was abusing &/or torturing the little girl. All the other girls made fun of her, because she was "his", he gave her a ring, etc. She snapped & killed him & became the Blood Widow. That's it. Not deep, but adequate for a Slasher backstory If you're a Slasher aficionado it's probably worth a look IMO.

obviously i wasn't paying much attention to it then. I did think the Blood Widow looked good though but other then that i thought it was rubbish. Yeah...reluctantly agree...I was really looking forward to it, & had moderately high hopes for it. I've seen much, much worse, but it was more or less fairly average SOV Slasher fair. Not like that's a bad thing per se, but...

The Monkey's Paw: 8/10. I was pleasantly surprised that this wasn't the giant dog turd I was expecting it to be. Technically, there is even undead in this one. Don't want to ruin, but highly recommend it. When I read indie movie, I winced, but it has Rock from TV in it, and looks pretty nicely polished. I found it online in a few places, including youtube in its entirety, but I saw it not on Netflix... Quite exquisitely gory in spots, if you love blood and guts.

Cold Comes The Night - 6.5/10 Very good performances from Bryan Cranston (as a near-blind Polish mafia man delivering a package), and Alice Eve (as a down-on-her-luck single mother, owner/operator of a sleazy motel). It's brief, it's moody, it's not excellent but it's not shit either - it's a pretty decent flick that's worth watching if you dig either of the two leads.

Men In Black 3 6/10

'Saturday Night Fever' 7/10 'Under the Skin' 6/10

[krisvds]

Under the skin a bit mediocre Shootem? Been wanting to see it after reading rave reviews from the local press...

[shootemindehead]

Don't get me wrong. It's a good film, but IMHO, it needed a trim by about 15 -20 minutes. It's extremely atmospheric, whatshername does a great job and there are moments cold brilliance, but to say that there isn't an awful lot going on in the film would be a bit of an understatement. There's also an awful lot left to the viewer's interpretation. Too much really. A few cuts here and there and it would warrant a 7 or an 8, but I'll be honest, it was trying my patience at times Kris. Still recommend it though.
