Captain America : The First Avenger In Review

I went into this movie expecting  nothing. I literally had no feelings on this one way or the other. I thought the trailers looked interesting but I would not be offended if it had been bad (though it wasn't). While I am a comic fan and have been since I was very small I never really read much Cap. I did read a arc or two of the books but no more. So I know his basic back story and that's about it.

Well Lets get started this is Captain America : The First Avenger In Review

Directed By: Joe Johnston
Produced By: Kevin Feige
Screenplay By : Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely
Based on:  Seriously ?! If you don't know you either live in a box or are a idiot.

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2 In Review

This review will be split into two halves. The First part will be for the people that only saw the films and the second will be for the people that read the books and watched the films. The first half will be before the jump. Also odds are there will be spoilers so if that annoys you sorry.

Let me point out that this film was shown on every screen in my local theater. Yes that is 18 screens and ALL of them were sold out for the midnight show. People were let into the theater a full hour and a half before the film started. To say it was crazy is a understatement. I arrived at the theater a hour and 15 mins before it started and i had to sit in the second row. Mehh live and learn.

Now let me get this show on the road this is Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2
Directed by: David Yates
Screenplay by : Steve Kloves
Based on : really do I need to tell you that??? Are you high?

Eden of the East in Review

I had this series suggested to me by a few friends. I put it off for quite sometime. After watching this series I do regret putting it off. it is very worth my time, for that matter its worth any anime fans time. This is one of the few series that can actually accurately claim to be excellent. The story isnt complicated it is well pace and makes you ask several questions.

What Constitues a Good Movie

There are several factors that go into what constitutes a good movie. Not just what you hear from award shows and critics.
1.The mood that you are in. If you are in a bad mood this will effect you being able to enjoy yourself. This may make you hate a movie that otherwise might be entertaining.
2. The day you are having. If you are watching a movie and having a fantastic day you are more likely to like the movie in question. This is much like the mood your in but not entirely.
3. The company you keep at the movie can greatly color your opinion.
4. A critics opinion should not effect what you  think either. Though most all of us are. Draw your own conclusion. Critics are a guideline not a RULE.
5. It is OK to like a movie that is considered bad. Do not get angry if others hated it. You had fun and that is what matters.  Accept that they did not like it and movie on you do not have to defend this decision.
For instance the movie Drive Angry with Nicholas Cage is a god awful film but I love it because I had fun.

Im sure Ill think of more. Ill add them when the come to me.

Golgo 13 Collection 1 Episodes 1-13 -A review

When I first saw this on Netflix instant I just had to watch it. When I first got into Anime back in the late 90s one of the first Anime that I saw was The Professional Golgo 13. I really enjoyed it. The story was compelling, if a bit thin, the super tower beer sign shot from near the end made me like the movie. I even didn't mind the early 80s CGI used with the helicopter. Even though it was so poorly done that  it took you straight out of the story. At times even the animation was lax. I didn't care. It was a manly movie. So when I find the first 13 Episodes on Netflix I have to give them a watch.

Duke Togo more commonly known by the pseudonym Golgo 13, a professional assassin. He is stated to be a very large Asian man and he rarely ever talks. You never really learn anything about his past. All you really know is that he is the best assassin ever. Capable of pulling of the proverbial impossible shot. Outside of a standard handgun he only seems to ever use a HIGHLY modified AR-15/M-16. --After Jump--
