Seems that the cast should | Seems that the cast should be held to a better standard than the material presented to them. It would have been a real crime to do anything with this story, but not to do anything for the characters in it. The best part of the film is the excellent camera-work. Other than that, it's an interesting but uneventful story.... | Seems that the cast should have met once before reading this script, because the characters can't seem to have had a single conversation before the start of the movie - not that a script is a guarantee - but some on screen chemistry among them would've been nice. Also, this movie's theme: "Life is hard." I agree, but n... | 0.624293 | 0.375707 |
1st watched 2/16/2002 - 4 | 1st watched 2/16/2002 - 4 out of 10 (Dir-James Glickenhaus & John A. Cramer): This bad, bad attempt at a modern retelling of Dracula fails, because the movie version is not as good as some of the older versions, such as the 1958 version starring Christopher Lee, as it takes out half of the vampire legend, and fails to ... | 1st watched 2/16/2002 - 4 out of 10(Dir-Russ Meyer): This is like viewing a student's independent film that got a big budget all of the sudden but doesn't quite know what to do with it or how to move forward. It is a very poorly acted, confusing and dull film of a very silly story. Nothing happens in this movie. A coup... | 0.504893 | 0.495107 |
The performances of Fishbourne (who | The performances of Fishbourne (who also wrote and directed the movie) and Delmar are all the better, of course, for being so fully formed, yet still so complex and vulnerable. That alone would mark this as an achievement, if not for the way all the pieces hang together in such a complete and satisfying way.<br /><br /... | The performances of Fishbourne (who plays his character's mother) in all three scenes he gets in (the first, last and funniest) and of Lewis (who plays the boy) are perfect in this comedy. If the 4th grade (at the beginning of the film) teacher's lecture to Fishbourne's character (on "what can come out of a simple joke... | 0.495134 | 0.504866 |
A pot - boiler if | A pot - boiler if you like, if you like it has a pretty strong plot line, even if the twists do have some major weak links, nevertheless the film does keep you glued to the screen, the final scenes are particularly interesting and give the film a feel good ending despite some pretty unpleasant actions that we have seen... | A pot - boiler if you like, but it's fun. I'm not much of a fan of musical comedy but for the record this one rocks. The songs and routines are in good form, with the stars of MGM's 'Singin' in the Rain' (with Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra) taking top billing. This is where Gene (as Tony P. and later Paul N.), Frank (as... | 0.410638 | 0.589362 |
This movie is a crappy | This movie is a crappy little low budget ripoff of The Italian Job. It actually could have been good, if they would have cast better actors in the roles.<br /><br />I have to admit I liked Michael York in the original Italian Job, and his acting here just wasn't up to par with him in that film. However, I will say that... | This movie is a crappy made, and crappy written movie. I'm 25 years old, and it was shown to my family when I was 15 years old (and he can remember it). It's stupid, and the story and characters are no good. (And it's only 40/100 by a 14 year old.) I would definitely give it a 4/100. I can't even imagine a good review ... | 0.5 | 0.5 |
This is just a case | This is just a case of a film that should've never been made. Having just come back from a screening at Austin's Paramount Theater, I should've never watched this movie. The plot is cliché and there are numerous things that could've been handled better, but on top of that, the ending left me feeling very angry and betr... | This is just a case of not knowing when to quit... It's a shame really, because the original (or even the first sequel) weren't too bad, but I have now wasted my time watching this mess. It started so sweetly with some sort of weird love triangle between a vampire, a "reborn" vampire and a poor kid whose soul has been ... | 0.496533 | 0.503467 |
Because IT IS, that's why! | Because IT IS, that's why! I found "Swordfish" to be an excellent martial-arts thriller. I especially liked it because it didn't glorify the criminals or heroes on either side. It simply presented a gritty movie that was entertaining and realistic.<br /><br />I had the opportunity to see the movie at a press screening.... | Because IT IS, that's why! There are several comments on IMDb that this is a truly "exquisite movie." This is not true. It is an extremely inept and rather ugly movie that is, quite frankly, not worth watching. Anyone who has seen the original film will realize that it was nothing of the sort.<br /><br />The only reaso... | 0.999999 | 0.000001 |
This can't be Mandy Schaffer's | This can't be Mandy Schaffer's first time making movies. That's one of the many mistakes made here. This movie was made as if it were a film made in its own right. But, Schaffer made this film because she's a "movie maker", as she was in high school. She should have left things alone, especially when she's only 17. The... | This can't be Mandy Schaffer's last movie. I can't believe there is no such thing as an untalented director, writer, artist... I thought that "BTK Killer" deserved some good attention. <br /><br />"BTK" is very graphic and sick, but I can't see anything good in this movie. Maybe the music is good - that's all I can say... | 0.884852 | 0.115148 |
Let me be really clear | Let me be really clear: what I enjoyed in "The Wicker Man," was the beautiful cinematography and production design. The plot of the film was unoriginal and predictable. There were parts that were confusing, and the way the characters were portrayed made them unappealing. In short, I felt like I was watching a bad horro... | Let me be really clear here. I love the concept of the film, but that is about the best thing I can say about "The Return". I watched it with a few friends the other night. It's a really slow film and a lot of its dialogue doesn't make much sense at all, to say nothing of its editing and its use of audio. You can spend... | 0.999997 | 0.000003 |
A truly, truly dire Canadian-German | A truly, truly dire Canadian-German-French production: there isn't a shred of atmosphere, there's no tension or horror, and I'm pretty sure the people (or dog) acting as the evil priest didn't know what the hell they were doing. We are meant to believe the priest is possessed with Satan, he doesn't even look possessed ... | A truly, truly dire Canadian-German co-production, in which two would-be film-makers take on a project and fail miserably. (There are only a couple of'successful' actors among the cast of unknowns.) <br /><br />The script lacks imagination and wit. The sound is of poor quality, and sometimes seems to be dubbed; the lig... | 0.501468 | 0.498532 |
This movie is so bad, | This movie is so bad, it has a cult reputation of being the worst horror movie ever, and I must say, I am not far behind in my opinion. When I was about 11, my older brother wanted to see this movie based off of the fact that it was rated NC-17. But after watching it, my older brother refused to watch anything else tha... | This movie is so bad, I can't comprehend why anyone with even a minimal set of brain cells would want to watch it. The plot is so unbelievable I can't even begin to describe how ridiculous it is. The acting is so bad that even high-school drama actors deliver lines that are more believable. Even the effects are laughab... | 0.501468 | 0.498532 |
Oh man. If you want | Oh man. If you want to enjoy the experience of torture, watch this movie with your friends.<br /><br />In this movie, you get to see a girl in front of a camera. The camera moves all over her with a shaky hand. She gets naked... twice. She is beaten, raped, and her body is shown in close up throughout the film.<br /><b... | Oh man. If you want to see one of the most hideously bad movies of the last 50 years, this should do it for you.

I have seen this movie many times over and I enjoy it every time. It is a feel-good and a tear-jerking movie. You do not know whether you should be laughing or crying when you see this movie. The acti... | I am guessing the reason for me rating this low is my very low expectations. The movie was simply bad! First off the movie tries to recreate some of the feel of the original (for example the opening credits), this is very hard to maintain given that this takes place some 5 years after the last movie.
