Sin City (2005)
Definitely the WORST movie I have ever suffered through
Oh this movie was so bad I don't know where to begin. Black and white? Really? Then there's the sadistic nature of everyone in it. The gore, the blood, that disgusting yellow guy; everything in this film is unpleasant and disturbing. I didn't even like the protagonist to be honest. Aside from what I said, the story didn't make any sense to me, and I still don't know how in the world I sat through all of it. I didn't think I would find a movie that was going to be worse than the "Scary movie" series, but this one tops that too in the list of the "WORST MOVIES OF ALL TIME." I really don't understand how it got such a high rating.
Serbuan maut (2011)
Insanely overrated
This film was just ghastly. I couldn't even watch it until the end. It looks like an amateur made it. Now I don't know much about how "good movies" are supposed to be, regarding cinematography, acting, effects etc. but that's not the point here. I mean, the story is ridiculous and hard to believe, you can't relate to the actors, and the whole thing is just unpleasant. I have no idea how people enjoyed this movie. I love action movies so it's not as if this isn't my type. A swat team goes on an unofficial mission and starts killing everyone in a building. If you like to watch meaningless shooting and fighting (oh and by the way somehow the all of the SWAT cops have karate skills here) then go for it. If you like the movie to have at least some depth then save yourself the trouble of watching this overrated excuse for a movie.
Bailout: The Age of Greed (2013)
An action movie addressing a real issue
9/10
I really enjoyed the whole movie from the first to the last minute. Don't expect the whole 97 minutes to be packed with action though. In the beginning it's about real financial problems people have due to the banks' way of doing business. A married couple invested its savings in a mutual fund which went bad, and ended up having their house foreclosed. Jim (Dominic Purcell) tried to fight it legally but it only got worse and worse until he lost his wife (she killed herself). After seeing the incompetence of the justice system and how the rich only got richer while only the average person like himself suffered he decided to kill the people responsible. The action kicks in relatively late in the film, however the interactions and emotions that led to Jim's desperation in the end are necessary in order to justify his actions. This film shows how we are only words and numbers on a piece of paper for the banks, and that they will stop at nothing to profit. As I see it the part before the action begins is how many people have been treated in real life, and the part where he goes ballistic is what many of those regular people who were robbed of their life would like to do.
To conclude, I also noticed that this film wasn't made in Hollywood. Hmm...let me think... neither was V for Vendetta... is it a coincidence?
