XXX: State of the Union - B+
Great action movie, and although it can be stupid at times, it's just cheesy fun.

THE DEVIL'S REJECTS
Well, a little while ago I just got back from the 9:15 screening of THE DEVIL'S REJECTS. Before I went into the theater, I tried to lower my expectations as low as possible. First off, I'm going to start this out as a rant, not about the movie but about the audience in the film. There was a row of college kids in front of my friend and I two rows down, they wouldn't stop talking. Ten minutes into the film, another row comes in and they're friends with the row in front of them. Someone said "why are we seeing this faggot movie?" Well, throughout the whole thing (yes everything) they're talking, running up the aisles and talking on their cell phones. There was twenty or so other people in the theater, I'm shocked nobody said anything. I was very close to doing so. Then when there is about half an hour left of the movie, the row that came in ten minutes late said "okay, we're leaving this fag movie." So they left. So they created this big ruccus for absolutely nothing, it really pissed everyone off. ANYWAY ...
I was stunned by the movie, it was amazing. I'm definetely a fan of HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES, I thought it was a fun slasher film. DEVIL'S on the other hand isn't exactly "fun" to watch but it isn't really hard to watch either. It doesn't really start getting disturbing until the end. Everything before that was very minor. The opening sequence with the cops raiding the house was amazing, quite possibly the best scene in the whole entire film. It never dragged, it was 101 minutes and for a horror movie, that can be painfully long. I was amazed throughout the whole film. It was also nice to see PJ Soles and EG Daily back on the screen, they rocked. When EJ Daily said something like "drop the fucking gun!" She used her Tommy Pickles voice from Rugrats. I for some reason thought that was quite humorus.
I never really had a problem with the film until the end. The end is of course amazing but I felt that while Freebird was playing, it was dragging just a bit. I enjoyed the bits where they weren't in the car and they were just walking. I also loved when they were speeding towards the cops, it was really beautifully shot, the whole movie was brilliantly shot, I was quite surprised. Yep Rob Zombie, you are indeed a great director and you should be proud of yourself, you have a possible classic on your hands.
I'm sure I'm the only one that thinks this but I thought that all of the women in the movie were terribly ugly, spare for Zombie's extremely hot wife Sherri Moon. It kind of sucks because basically every single girl in nude in the film and they're nothing to look at. Of course none of the nudity is sexual or arousing in any kind of way, so it doesn't really matter. At the beginning when Tiny is dragging a dead nude body, it was just of gross because someone yelled "tits and bush!"
Overall, this is far better than the underrated 1000 CORPSES. This is a horror classic that will stand the test of time for many years to come.
9/10 (A-)

Fantastic Four - A-
Much better than the following acclaimed superhero movies: Spiderman, Spiderman 2, Hulk, Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Forever, Batman & Robin, Batman Begins, Superman, Superman 2, Superman 3, Superman 4 and all others apart from Sin City.
F4 is a superhero movie. So when i go in i am expecting a fun movie that anything can happen in. I got a FANTASTIC movie that had a brilliant story and very good characters....that EVERTHING happened in.
Julie McMahon stole the show, for me. Alba was great and sexy as Sue Storm. Ioan was good as the uber-geeky Reed. Michael Chikilis was great as The Thing and Chris Evans was superb as Johnny. I am thoroughly pleased with F4 and will definately be buying it!

I saw Fantastic Four again yesterday, and the movie doesn't hold up well at all.
I'm still in the A- to B+ range, though.

Brilliant story? That's kind of pushing it...

For a superhero movie, i thought the story was excellent (Far better than SM2). Are you going to mock me for liking that too, are you?

I enjoyed F4 just as much as you did (well, maybe a little less after more viewings...), but the story was ridiculous.
