Eagle Eye , Transporter 3 , Grand Torino , [Review]
Anbody seen anything good in the last couple of weeks ? here is a few films I watched over the last 2 weeks and my thoughts.
Eagle Eye - 7/10
---------------------
Action packed film with lots of car chases , Imagine Jason Bourne and the fugitive and maybe Enemy of the State.
Transporter 3 - 6/10
----------------------
Nothing different from 1 & 2 , typical Statham doesnt get a scratch on him when he is fighting 10 people with bars and chains. Also many car stunts that would be impossible.
P.S I really like the Chick with red hair.
Grand Torino - 9/10
----------------------
For a Clint Eastwood film I thought it was going to be Dirty Harry with his gun and a few stand off's but I was suprised how powerful this film was and how well it was directed. Very good ending which leaves a smile on your face.
What have you seen thats worth a mention ?

There Will Be Blood gets a 5/10.
I don't get the big deal. Is the movie highly touted for no reason other than the effort of the single man, Paul Anderson? Yes, it's a good movie and it's amazing 1 person could go through directing his written vision so well, but the movie itself isn't very emotional, isn't very inspiring, the dialogue is nothing to remember and I don't recall anything (other than capturing the dirt and grit of the west) necessary of putting the story on film.
I really did like the shot of Day-Lewis rushing away from the oil fire to his son.

Max Payne - 7/10
Another recent film which could of been better, if you have played the games you will know that every couple of seconds you are killing people , also doing lots of shoot-outs in bullet time etc , I think the film only had one big action seen when the SWAT team show up and thats about it.
I was hoping for Walberg to have a bigger body count but in general the script was ok.

I rly thought that Eagle Eye sucked! The acting was terrible overall and th plot has been used so many times ...
War Inc. was a fun, yet such a retarded movie though
