M For Movies

It's been a while since I've reviewed a film here. Maybe I was saving up or something. Or maybe something else. Anyway, here's a few quickie synopses before I get into today's main event.

Match Point: Tragic love triangle. Scarlett Johansson is hot. Brian Cox not a bad guy for once. No ninjas or zombies; some shotgun action. Nothing special.

The Upside of Anger: OMG I'M BAD BECAUSE I HAVE A PENIS KILL ME NOW. Also, Kevin Costner is boring.

King Kong: Dinosaur pileup-orgy is funny. Insect beatdown overly long. Giant worms creepy. Should have been two hours of Kong going WWF on the T-Rexes. Rexi? Rexes?

Underworld: Evolution: Vampires good. Beckinsale sexy. Continuity with first movie very good. Will there be a third? Difficult to say.

Night Watch: Russian vampire-type creatures are even cooler. Subtitles done well. Confusing. Part one of three. Little boy looked like little girl. Maybe that happens in Russia.

And with that out of the way...
