I don't envy the Razzie award committee this year. Battleship was just awful and we still haven't got Pirahana 3DD yet. Let alone the titanic failure that is The Devil Inside. Yeah I'm still in a bad mood over Battleship and my first look for this week isn't very promising.
1) MEN IN BLACK III: J has to save the world by going back in time.
The Good: It's a goofy comedy with a goofy story. Hallmark of the MiB franchise.
The Bad: The second MiB movie wasn't anything special so this is a last ditch effort to save the franchise.
Final Thoughts: If you like these kinds of movies, I think you'll have a good time. Just know what you're watching.
2) CHERNOBYL DIARIES: A group of extreme tourists visit the site of the worst nuclear disasters in history. And while there they are haunted by ghosts.
The Good: It's written by the guy who made Paranormal Activity. One of my favorite horror movies.
The Bad: Let me get this straight. The victims of Chernobyl are now ghosts and... what? Get their kicks scaring people?
Final Thoughts: It's first person shaky cam with a plot so baffling that even though they want you the audience to take it seriously and get scared, for me it would just be impossible. Skip it.
3) MOONRISE KINGDOM: A couple of kids fall in love and run away into the forest.
The Good: The cast is one to be drooled over. Bill Murray, Francis McDormand, Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, and Harvey Keitel!
The Bad: The cast is the only thing good about this.
Final Thoughts: I might see it but only if it's on DVD.
4) BATTLE ROYALE 3D: In a future where the Japanese economy is almost wiped out and unemployment is through the roof, Japanese school children turn to gang-like behavior. In response the government chooses kids at random to go to an island and fight to the death.
The Good: If you liked The Hunger Games, this is like it only on extra strength horse steroids.
The Bad: It's an ultra violent melodrama that might not sit well with younger audiences.
Final Thoughts: A movie so violent and disturbing the Japanese government had to pass laws on what can be seen in movies. HELL YEAH I'M THERE!
See you at the movies!
