Here's mah next set of movies.....
Super 8
Set in small town middle America between 78-80. The film follows a set of Jr High boys trying to make a movie for a local FilmFest who witness the catastrophic crash of a military train and film the escape of an alien creature. Soon people and machinery start to disappear and the military steps in and takes over.
Vissually decent. You really get that early middle Amrica feel right of the bat. And when the alien IS on screen its actually very believable.
Story is preety strong,but pacing is a bit stop&go....I lucked out in watching this First.
Acting was actually great....the cast did a great job portraying the propery array of emotions for the age range they're supposed to be. Which I think is amazing these days where more often younger characters are portrayed in a more Adult temperment thats not age-appropriate.
Super 8 Gets a 8, I recomend seeing it just make it the First movie in the stack if yur gonna see multiple.
In brightest day, in blackest night, No evil shall escape my sight Let those who worship evil's might, Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!
~Green Lantern~
The story of Hal Jordan, US Air Force test pilot, becoming the first human in the Lantern Corps. He gets his ring from the dying Abin Sur who is taken down by Paralax an entity that is powered by fear. Hal must come to terms with himself and a duty that is Literally alien.
Visually Off-the-Charts Awsome...everything from the energy constructs, to being on another world, to the myriad of alien races is all both stunning and believable.
Story was a particually good interpritation of the origin story of the current lanterns.
Acting was suprisingly good. Ryan Rdenold's does a great job portraying a more straitfaced role.
Green Lantern gets a 8.9, deffinately worth the money.
