Sean’s movie thoughts

 Werewolves was decent. This is basically the Purge with Werewolves. It might not have rewatch value.  Frank Grillo stars as a research scientist. (Yeah, he might not be my choice for a scientist either.)  A super-moon has caused millions of people to become werewolves. Scientists are working to discover a cure. Chaos ensures when test subjects transform. The werewolves look good. Practical effects were used.  Lou Diamond Philips is barely in this film. It is nice to see him though. 

 Take Cover is good. This is another direct to video action movie with Scott Adkins. He tries to retire from his black ops job. His employees don't accept this and he and his partner are trapped in a hotel room and under attack. Two women, hired as massage artists, are trapped in the room too. This is good. It has a small cast and a limited location but I think it works. Adkins is good. I liked his partner. I did not recognize that actor. There is less hand to hand action than in some of Adkins other films. That kind of goes a long with the set-up. This might be worth re-watching.  It is not as good as One Shot or One More Shot.

 Do Charlie Sheen and Keifer Sutherland seem French to you? No, they don’t but this is a good movie. Oliver Platt doesn’t seem French but he was not a star of Young Guns, so perhaps he seems a bit more French than the other two. The Cardinal Richelau is plotting against the young king. The Musketeers have been disbanded but three Musketeers have not surrendered. They met a young man named D’Artagnan (Chris O’Donnell) who wants to be a musketeer. He manages to offend them all in separate meetings and he has duels scheduled with them all. The Cardinal’s guards interrupt the duel. Sheen is Aramis, who studied to be a priest before becoming a musketeer, and Sutherland is Athos, a former nobleman. Platt is Porthos, who seems to enjoy life a bit more than his friends. In hindsight Sheen playing a character who studied to become a priest is a bit funny.  Michael Wincott stars as the Cardinal’s henchmen. He was also in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves as Guy of Gisbourne. Tim Curry is the...

 Maybe I am over Deadpool and the breaking the fourth wall jokes. I did not hate this film and I did finish it. That at least is something. The action was fine. It was nice to see Hugh Jackman as Wolverine again. I liked one of the two major villains.  As I said I feel over the breaking the fourth wall jokes or maybe some of those jokes were not that good this time around. Also the cherry or upbeat song being used for background music during a fight scene might have been done one time too often. I am keeping the plot details vague. I liked one of the two major villains but the other one I did not find interesting at all. Problem is that the villain I liked was the second villain.  I might not watch this again but I am keeping that option open. If this is better than Green Lantern, which I am sure of, it is not that much better. Maybe the Green Lantern film had a few issues but it is as bad as Reynolds has made it out to be. 

Time Cut is not bad. It has the same basic plot as Totally Killer that came out last year. I think Totally Killer is better. I wonder if Time Cut came out first if I would have liked it better. I think being the second of two movies means Time Cut would need to win the battle of the films by knock-out. It doesn't. In this one a young woman goes back in time and gets a chance to save the sister she has never known. Performances are decent. There is a twist that if the woman, Lucy, saves her sister, Summer, Lucy might not be born. That is kind of interesting. I am not sure how the time travel rules worked in this film. At one point something happens that seemingly should change the future but apparently it doesn't. Then later something happened that did change the future; that seems inconsistent. I did not regret watching this but I might not watch it again. Not every movie is worth a rewatch. Totally Killer is better. If you have not seen it, I recommend it. Maybe the acting in ...

I tried to re-watch this. I am fairly sure I saw this years ago. It is bad. It is not bad in comparison to Halloween H20. Resurrection is bad even if you have not seen H20. The movie centers around a web event at the Myers house. Micheal comes home and he starts killing the visitors. There are cameras in the house and sometimes the movie switches from the real events to the footage. I found that a bit distancing. There is a character watching this broadcast and I felt that also put a distance between me and the story/main plot.  Jamie Lee Curtis is in an opening scene and her character was apparently killed off. Curtis did not the ending of H20 being undone and was reportedly forced to make this film. Producers at the time claimed that Curtis loved the script (Curtis later denied it). This segment is better than the rest of the film. I quit before the viewer got more involved in the main plot. I might missed more of Buster Rhymes’ silly moments. I have heard he has a bunch. I did n...
