Lady Bloodfight (2016)
Thoroughly entertaining
An on-the-nose punching fest with some excellent stunting.
Dancer in the Dark (2000)
Bizarre and pathetic
I have enjoyed some of the director's other films, but was sorely disappointed by this manipulative, self-indulgent "musical" (the first song is about 45 minutes in). Being a musical, of course, everyone bangs on about how much they love musicals, but I digress.
Frankly, I am sick of characters hiding their life savings in shoe boxes, and them having them stolen to drive the plot forward. Why didn't Bjork move to a country that would do the operation for free, and has proper benefits for disabled people? Why was the court case such a travesty, with no attempt at balance shown? Are friends and family really allowed to rush from their seats to give things to people at an execution? Misery upon misery is piled upon Bjork for no reason at all.
Ridiculous.
Planet of the Apes (2001)
bewilderingly bad film
Myself and my girlfriend left the cinema bewildered and disappointed by this terrible film. We are both Tim Burton fans and were willing to overlook the mixed advance press.
Suffice it to say that this film is a mess, doesn't make any sense, and has severe acting problems. The male lead is a man who used to advertise underpants and is a complete emotional blank. Even worse, his love interest is that curse of Hollywood films, a model woman who has no acting ability whatsoever. Just think: they spent tens of millions of pounds on this, could have had anyone in the world write a script and work on it and this is what was produced.
Vampires (1998)
oh dear
This film is so desperately awful, it beggars belief. It is easily one of the worst films I have ever seen, and I am a massive John Carpenter fan who like vampire films!
One of its many problems is it looks so cheap and is so unexciting. This is a very bad mistake when the world contains Blade and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Others include: Unpleasant attitude to women Having one of the Baldwin brothers in it James Woods so small and feeble, he really doesn't have the physical presence to carry this. 6 foot tall? Are you sure?
