This is a strange movie.

Honestly? Not as much goat-staring as I thought there would be.

I thought this one was just okay, but that doesn't surprise me a bit. I always wish for more from Mike Judge and am left merely nodding my head.

Trancers is part Blade Runner, part Terminator, with a little seed of 12 Monkeys planted in there... only low budget and pretty stupid.

But I can't stop thinking about it.

I re-watched Signs last night, and despite the obvious holes involving naked water-averse aliens wasting their time trying to kidnap a few people on a small farm situated on a planet with a water-soaked atmosphere, I actually think it's a good movie with interesting ideas and a good dose of humor.

Before I watched it I was wondering if all of this "Mel Gibson is a monstrous psychopath" talk of the last few weeks would have a negative effect on the experience. The answer did surprise me a bit.

I like Bruce Willis, I like science fiction, I like dystopias disguised as utopias. This one was okay, and suffered from the same problems that I, Robot did. Mainly, it was just too small in scope.

I really knew very little about this movie until recently. Watching it, I realized that no one will ever make a film like this ever again: dark, quiet, and demanding.

Yes, I watched this. Damn this Netflix on the Wii is addicting.

What might have been an interesting biopic was marred by an extremely unlikeable modern tale of spoiled white brats whining about their horrible lives in New York City. This is the second such movie that I've seen that stars Meryl Streep, and in both she is the only saving grace.

Wow. I mean, I knew this was a notoriously bad film. I thought that maybe it wasn't as bad as all the hype, that maybe it was just normal bad.

But seriously, as enjoyable as camp can be, this is an almost unwatchable movie.

This incredible send-up of James Bond has quite a history... a history that predates 007 himself.
