Hey all!. I have spun a few Dvd's this last week and thought I would share my thoughts on them.
"Last day on Earth" - Well, the scientific premise behind this film is laughable!. You would figure they could come up with a better reason why the Earth is going to end rather than because of the the Ozone layer!!??.....let alone at EXACTLY 4:44 AM??!!. Hehehe!!. Complete with the Al Gore insertion and how we "Asked for it" kinda' thinking. Laughably, everybody kinda' just goes on with their lives in a funny kinda' way, complete with a dude delivering take out food to their door!!??. HUH??. Anyway, the only major star in this film is Willem Dafoe and it's not that he does a bad job in his role, it's just the whole story line that sucks. Don't rent this dvd for good science fiction, explosions, and end of World apocalyptic scenarios like the dvd box indicates. This is a talker movie folks!. However and at the end of the day, this film is laughably wrong in every way. 5/10 stars at best.
"The Impossible" - This is a film about an American family vacationing in Thailand caught in the destruction and chaotic aftermath of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. This film really wears on you as time goes on. The musical score is nauseating and just goes on and on with sad, violins and piano music :cry:. It's basically about a family that gets torn apart in the tragic aftermath of the Tsunami and them going on and on trying to find each other (On and on is the key words here folks!!). I don't think honestly that this was a good enough story for a major motion picture. However, the musical score brings it to a whole another level of 'Yawn' :Z
6/10 stars for this sleeper....
