    Godzilla 6/10

    Well movies like Godzilla are not going to be every ones taste. Me on the other hand, I like mindless entertainment at the movies.

    Firstly I admit I enjoyed the movie but I scored it low because;
    1. too slow with the boring back story/build up
    2. When we finally get to see the star it's far too little too late
    3. He's FAT? What's that about
    4. He's made out to be this ace predator but to me evolution played him a dud hand. He has small teeth and no fangs, a small bite, feeble front arms and waddled around like a pregnant duck. If he wasn't 108m tall he wouldn't be scary at all. Cuddly even.
    5. Mainly, I still think the 1990s version hit the nail on the head for the look and feel of the monster and it gave a far better impression of the monster's sheer size with all those 'walkover' scenes. Matthew Broderick was that movies downfall, silly choice.

    I went to Godzilla based on the IMDB rating expecting great things. I was largely unimpressed once I left.
    Thin as plot that at times was almost directionless. Godzilla also has a impressive chokehold for a fat khunt with T-Rex arms, he lifts bro...
    The ending just brassed me off. Humans try to nuke him, shoot the shit out of him with tanks and jets yet hes all forgiving and walks off into the sea all boss and shit. If it was me I would proceed to kill everyone, take a giant Godzilla sized shit right over America, then post a #YOLO to my twitter account.

    EDIT: Oh yeah and from experience it takes more than 12 hours to cross the pacific ocean from japan to the states. Thought that part was rather funny

    Save your money for Planet of the Apes. Looks much more promising

    Snowpiercer 5/10

    The whole movie I was like, why the fuck are they in a train? Which was never really answered. However, they blew up the train, which moved it from a 2/10 to the 5/10 I gave it.

    If you like this sort of thing I showed one back in my Projectionist day called Waking Life as part of the Film Fest. Watch it in a dark room and it plays games with you perception of reality

    Save even more money and download Neon Genesis Evangelion, same basic idea but done far better and includes a giant head fuck towards the end, especially if you watch the original ending.

    A quarter arsed explanation at best, did they ever even explain why they had to keep it moving?

    Thought this was a doco but actually a very interesting and well made war/drama film, apparently not 100% authentic but a good look at what it would have been like.

    Lol Pacific Rim was one of the gayest movies I have ever seen. Terminator/Rambo/The Matrix/Die Hard/Alien only action movies one really needs to watch. Seems peoples entertainment levels are slipping these days.

    Snowpeircer was pretty good in my opinion.

    I watched a indie horror called "Mr Jones" the other day which I thought was pretty good. Not as good as Wolf Creek 2 though, piratebay taht shit, its awesome
