Good, but not X-cellent

Tue, 3 Jun 2003 19:20:48 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Many folks wouldn't guess that the X-men franchise is over 35 years old, but it is, and in all that time they have never been on the silver screen until now. It has been a long time coming for a lot of comic book fans worldwide. Once a comic book...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - I apologize if someone already used that review title, but it was the only phrase that came to mind when I thought back on watching Austin Powers in: Goldmember just a few short days ago. It was my first time seeing the film, and on VHS no less,...

SID Vicious

Tue, 7 Jan 2003 08:17:34 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Long before Russell Crowe starred in the hit film "Gladiator", he starred (and co-starred) in many Australian movies that most of us have probably never heard of, even though a few of them raked in some respectable awards overseas. Basically, he was a...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - One of the oldest and most well known stories in the history of mankind, the story of the birth and life of Jesus Christ, is wonderfully portrayed in The Miracle Maker. Without being particularly biased in my review (even though I am a...

Perfect? Not Quite.. but good enough for me.

Sat, 16 Nov 2002 20:32:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Rare, the company behind Perfect Dark, made history with the development of Goldeneye in the mid-to-late 90's. It's sales status went through the roof and with this kind of power driving on the crew that made the game, it was only a matter of...

Weird, Wild, and Wonderful.

Tue, 13 Aug 2002 01:41:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Wow; and we have a unique, under-hyped surprise from deep left field, ladies and gentlemen. Very deep. While Party Girl certainly doesn't go the distance in satisfying all tastes, for what it is, it's what most of us look for in a film,...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - From novelist James Clavell, creator of Shogun and Tai Pan, comes Noble House, a splendid addition to his already-formidable works list. Based upon his novel of the same name, the theme of Noble House centers around big business practices...

A Fantastic First for Mr. Gibson.

Mon, 12 Aug 2002 00:24:49 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - When I sat down to watch Payback, I can say from the bottom of my heart that I expected nothing more than a high-caliber (and high body count) shoot 'em up feature, Mel Gibson style. While it's true that the crooked characters that cross Gibson's...

Sorry - No Ham Joke Available

Sun, 11 Aug 2002 04:04:56 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Ah, Silence of the Hams, where do I begin? With movies like this, it's not that tough. Let's start with the area the producers worked on last:

Plot: You've got to be kidding. If you are looking for anything vaguely...

Brain droppings..

Sat, 10 Aug 2002 20:17:28 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - "Makes the Matrix look like child's Play" is just one of the quotes on the box of the videocassette eXistenZ (you want it pronounced, look for someone weird to do it for you, I doubt they'll have as much of a problem as I do). Let's see now, the...

Carrey Shoots.. He Scores!! And That's the Truth.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Have you seen Ace Ventura (Jim Carrey's first recognizable film effort)? If so, you know how Carrey can over-dramatize things, particularly his voice and facial expressions. Well in the words of a great wise man, you ain't seen nothin' yet. As amazing...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Have you ever wanted Hollywood to release a movie about the head of a crime family who is falling apart at "work" and needs to see a shrink to help him regain his emotions, thus his tough guy status? Me neither.. but it just so happens that they...

Holy cinematic trash, Batman!

Wed, 24 Jul 2002 18:43:53 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - If there were ever a comic book-based film worthy of a bad review (besides Marvel's Captain America.. but we're talking more than a 20 dollar budget here), it's Batman & Robin. I remember the movie getting a lot of hype, trying to stir up some...

"Get over here!"

Wed, 24 Jul 2002 06:33:57 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - When I first saw this movie, I'll admit, I loved it. Being a teenager still, I was all for the fighting and carnage that Mortal Kombat promised. In fact, my best friend and I were so psyched up to see it, we practically wore out the trailers on...

Leg wax, anyone?

Wed, 24 Jul 2002 04:47:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - I've always considered Sandra Bullock's movies (or specifically, her roles in them) generally mediocre, mostly because she often acts like she's acting, and that obviously brings the enjoyment factor down a few rungs. However, I was pleasantly...

Disney, eat your heart out..

Tue, 23 Jul 2002 01:03:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - The Iron Giant. Now this is what cartoons are supposed to be. When I first saw the box art and advertising for this movie, I thought it was simply another cheap Disney rip-off, or at the very least, a substandard, yet original, animated movie...

Luke Skywalker goes funny in the head.

Mon, 22 Jul 2002 20:06:05 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Ah, sweet science fiction. What would the world be like without you? Introducing Slipstream, a sort of sci-fi epic in it's own right that has gained somewhat of a cult following since it's release in the 80's. I've seen the film more...

Thirsty for Moore..

Mon, 22 Jul 2002 01:54:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Being a huge 007 film fan, I can honestly say that The Spy Who Loved Me is my second, possibly third (it's an ongoing battle between it and Goldeneye) favorite James Bond outing, though for different reasons than I enjoy my choice of first and...

Mon, 22 Jul 2002 00:26:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - I'm not going to pull punches. I loved the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film when it was initially released and I still enjoy it today, despite a few nagging flaws in it's development. The TMNT craze lasted a long time, and is still around...

Sat, 20 Jul 2002 21:33:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - The early 90's. Super Mario World for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System was flying off the shelves, selling like hotcakes, even beating out Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog in overall sales. Eager gamers were eating it up along with extra helpings of...

Some people just can't admit that these games stink.

Sat, 20 Jul 2002 19:59:57 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - You want objective? I'll give you objective. I could sum up the entire series with one review, but for now I'll concentrate on giving the skinny on the second game in the Tomb Raider series to those few people out there who have not become mindless...

Baptism of Fire. The series matures.

Sat, 20 Jul 2002 06:05:45 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paper-trail - Breath of Fire 3 is what the common gamer refers to as an 'old school RPG'. Hand-drawn sprite graphics as opposed to texture mapped polygons, themes of swords and sorcery, princesses, castles, etc. as opposed to skyscrapers and laser cannons. If...
