Well nothing much to report since Mondays late TGIF post because…
…half the time I’ve been sat in a darkened room wearing 3D glasses
& the other 1/2 the time I’ve been sat in a darkened room not wearing 3D glasses…
Chronicle: 3/5 stars, it was OK, a great idea but thought the way they chose to tell the story via the kids video camera all Cloverfield style was fine, but it has been done before, Blair witch is another one, but then they start flicking the footage from his camera to other handheld cameras, to police car/copter footage, to mobile phone footage, to security cameras and ATM machine footage, and at one point I’m sure it all got too confusing and they just ignored the rules for a few seconds during the climatic fight scenes at the end of the film. so what was the point, forget the over the top clever self filmed style and just film it normally, it doesn’t draw you in any more or make you care for characters any more than you normally would, it just makes to think “why the hell are they doing this we know he is not really filming himself, I’m going to watch this like a hawk and spot any mistakes – directors are idiots arn’t they” and for me that kind of detracted from the film some what hence this little review just turned in to a bit of a rant – oops better make that 2/5 stars.
Now for the 3D; Ghost Rider 2: 3 stars, it was in 3D – can’t really think of anything else to say about it….
…oh yeah Nick Cage is in it too and his head sets on fire… DONE.
YouTube: My next gun – for door breaching and zombie killing – love the sound of this guys voice…
See ya next week.
