Hi I'm Nick, a Film boffin and a friend and colleague of Sam. In this short blog im gonna be writing a few short reviews on the summer movies i've seen and those which are coming up.
Transformers - I saw this film on friday, not knowing what to expect since being born in the 90's meant I didn't have time for transformers. I went to the film thinking it was going to be brilliant. It didnt live up to my expectations. It was a ok film but it dragged on a bit and was a bit stupid due to the fact that basically the robots were fighting over a dead explorers specs.
3 stars out of 5. ***
Simpsons Movie - Unlike transformers i went into this film knowing what to expect since i am a big fan of the show.I thought the film was gonna be good but boy did it beat my expectations.It was one of the funniest films ive seen in a while with many bizarre yet funny moments(A brief glimpse of Barts genitalia!) and the typical humour associated with the series i.e Homer putting a deadly hornet nest in the flanders' mailbox.
I give this film 5 stars out of 5! *****
Die hard 4 - I saw this film not thinking it was gonna be that great because after all, Bruce willis is an old boy now in his early fifties. I was wrong, Die hard 4.0 is a great film and successfully manages to combine violence and action scenes with a good story without it being a bunch of old tripe. The special fx are great and overall its a great film
i give it 4 stars out of 5. ****
Shrek 3 - I saw Shrek and Shrek 2 and thought they were great movies however Shrek 3 is ok but nowhere as good as the other 2 and in all honesty I think I can say the creators are running out of jokes as some of them in this film are really unfunny.
Coming Soon: The movies still coming this summer include:
Evan Almighty: Evan Almighty is a sequel to the Jim Carrey 2003 Movie,Bruce Almighty minus Jim Carrey.
The film follows the exploits of Bruce nolans ex fellow news anchor and now congressman Evan baxter as he is ordered by God to build an ark.To be honest although i haven't seen it i don't think its gonna be that great as the plot is really basic and the only good thing happening that i can imagine is the film ending much to the delightment of the cinema audience.
Bourne Ultimatum: This film is the third book in the series by Robert Ludlum involving the Exploits of Spy and Amnesiac Jason Bourne. I really enjoyed Identity and Supremacy as they were Spy films but 100 times grittier and cleverer.The film looks like it should be good with plot twists mentioned in the trailer including Jason Bourne getting his Memory Back. Also this movie looks like its full of car chases, similar to those that were part of the reason why identity and Supremacy were such good films. I hope my blog has encouraged you to go the cinema! ciao for now, Nick.
