Lone Survivor (2013)
1/10
Just Awful
31 December 2013
Warning: Spoilers
So many holes in this plot,incoherent and warbled message, sub par acting makes this just an awful watch, couldn't believe it was ranked 7.5 on IMDb this site is usually more less accurate... the holes I couldn't get over... A. The radio goes out because " the mountain is in the way" so they climb up and it still doesn't work .... no reason given, just hey we cant reach anyone....OK

B. They don't want to kill the shepherds so they come up with 3 options only - the dumbest of which they choose... letting them go and call their friends who then murder all of them....lets seeeeeee, you could have knocked them out and left them there and given yourself more time, tied their feet so it would take them longer to get back and call the "haji's, tie them together...you get the point, so many ways to slow them down instead of letting them go....just dumb.

C. They are on the run and have no where to go...so you think they might do some cool rambo sh*t, go booby trap some c4 and gangster....but instead they jump off a cliff and all live... um lmfao who is writing this crap? oh yea, and then they do the same exact thing again from a higher cliff 5 minutes later...HAHAHA.. I'm surprised they didn't jump off more cliffs and walk it off, this bad movie could have gone on forever....

D. Just some little things like they had no GPS, just running around like idiots not knowing where they going, not being tracked by their officers, they have no translator - and undercover navy seals team in Afghanistan and not one of them speaks one word of the language....The baddies shoot like 20 RPG's in the movie, never hitting anything, then when the copter comes for a pickup...BULLSEYE right through the door...lol nice.

E. So Marky Mark gets saved by some good Afgani's, yay, stupid scene of him trying to talk to them, and a dumb message about karma and how you cant judge people because of where they come from...much better ways to convey this message without a horribly scripted war movie, no thank you.

Pretty Lame Job
5 August 2008
Movie is predictable, boring, and the acting is horrible, only thing I would like to add is I really liked Ruta Gedmintas, never heard of her before but shes hott sh*t and there doesn't seem to be a lot of coverage on her on the web, I definitely hope I see her again somewhere though.....

This film is by far the worst i have ever seen!! It could very well be the worst movie in human history!! I thought it would be a thrilling story but it kind of looks like a high school project done by students aiming very low.. The acting is so bad that i wanted to cry a some points and the whole story line is so predictable and badly done. Im sorry but no one in their right mind could like this film.

OK movie but the book was a lot better (as usual)
8 December 2007
The book "Ella Enchanted" was a really great book written by Gayle Carson Levine. I must have first read the book about 10 years ago and gone over it about 7 times over the years, really a delightful read and if you like the movie you should definitely get the book.

The tone of the movie starts off a bit different than the book does, if I recall correctly the book didn't start off with some cheery airhead fairy giving a "gift" to a baby girl but started a bit more subtle....Also I don't know whose baby they used for Ella in the movie but that was not a cute kid (Srry :P). There are a number of disappointing changes in the movie that I don't care for,(for starters, the dad is a real prick in the book) and I really urge any viewers to read the book as it was wickedly enchanting (urgh).

The movie was still kind of cute and entertaining and I did enjoy it but it just didn't stand up to my expectations after reading the book. cheers.

Skinwalkers (2006)
1/10
really bad film
4 December 2007
This movie is about a bunch or werewolves trying to track some kid down and kill him, already not the best plot but still some potential to be cool....unfortunately the small amount of potential was never realized. I read the other user comment which compared this film to Underworld and Van Helsing, I thought to myself "hey, looks like im in for a treat tonight", this was not the case at all. I was surprised because usually the user comments on this site are pretty good, I guess this is the exception that proves the rule. This film is really badly written with almost no special effects...kind of like a bit of talking a few surprises and people running and shooting, really a pretty bad film. I do admit that I fell asleep a few times during this film so my description might not be 100% on the money but I got the gist of it i think....ugh
