This movie tries to combine every end of the world/destruction movie into one. Its a good movie - if you like to see things blow up and buildings fall. The movie itself is not as good as say Deep Impact nor as compelling and emotional as Armagedeon but it does bring to the plate its own version of WTF scenes and close encounters. Charlie Frost is probably the best character in the whole movie. They throw in a bit of Titanic in there as well but it was totally forgetable for the most part. People who shoulda died didn't and there are far too many fathers crying in this movie. A good ride of a movie, with jaw dropping driving and flying thrills that manages to fall flat at the end. I give it a 7 out of 10. If you ignore the bad science and forced emotions, the movie is worth a watch at the theater - once.
At first I thought it was a bit too soon to be releasing a MJ movie but after seeing it, I realised that it make perfect sense to release it now. Its not really a movie but a extended music video with commentary and bloopers. Whether you see this movie or not is based directly on how much you love to hear MJs music played on good, high quality speakers that you can only get in a theater. It will make you want to dance and rock your head. It would have been a great concert. For what it is, it couldn't have been better. I give it 10.

I thought it was kind of a ghoulish and money-grubbing thing for them to do
but maybe not
maybe it's a nice thing for it to be released ... read 5 more
This movie is about a father who loses his daughter and wife to a heinous crime. The dude (Gerard Bulter) seeks to take revenge on the justice system for messing up the trials of the murder's of his family. Its a high quality, suspense, mystery, crime thriller about a father on a path of righteous revenge (ala Death Wish).
The movie is very good, up to a point. Its one of those movies that are deep and mysterious until they decide tell you whats really going on and the director goes a long way to try and explain everything. This is what really spoils it for me, killing the mystery and makes the ending feel rushed.
Its a good movie, with good action, cool murders, no gore, nice ride up until 10 minutes before it ends. 8 out of 10.
Gods Child commented: I've grown tired of these movies
I'd like to see something new and different
I'm skipping this one due to the warnings about the violence
I've seen enough violence to the point where I suspect everyone of being serial killers anyway ... read 13 more
Starring Bruce Willis as a detective trying to solve a murder in a world filled with people who use remote controlled robots to live thier daily lives. Its kinda like I-robot meets The Matrix however nothing much is really explained and things just happen. Even the ending twist feels unnecessary and unfulfilling.
Its always good to have a new robot-future scfi movie but somehow this one seems to find a way to turn what seems to be an exciting action thriller into a boring public service message about humanity and that social networks are ruining our lives.
By the end of the movie you won't care about any of the characters and you will find yourself asking; "So whats the point of all this?". Its a love or hate it Lifetime movie. Only see it if you are a Fan of robots that do nothing. 3 out of 10. Pointless movie.
clayonjj commented: I disagree I watched the movie the ending wasn't unnecessary a little predictable but in a good way. I dug it and I thought the message was very relevant to today because its true that while these sites are good at times, the beach is even better and if we don't watch out we'll forget that.I felt for the Bruce Willis's character and his wife. ... read 3 more
As most of you know I watch a great portion of my movies on cable by a smoldering fireplace with cookies and a warm blanket. But thats not what we are here to discuss - we are here to do a review of a movie called Rambo 4, simply titled "Rambo" (all things old are new again).
Now some people might already know what to expect from this movie and some may not. But in this movie everything dies and I mean EVERYTHING. From the start of the movie you can just tell whats going to happen, its a dead giveaway. Its almost like the story of The Little Red Riding Hood. Clearly this movie is for a certain type of audience but I doubt I've ever seen killing on such a wide scale since I can't even remember.
Yeah Stallone has gotten older but what does age have to do with anything when you special effects? I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, I think they must have killed about a billion people - seriously - in every way that is humanly possible with a machine gun and explosives. Kids, women, dogs, trees, boats, water - EVERYTHING.
I give Rambo 4 an above average; 8 out of 10. Very violent. Not as deep and diabolical as the first ones but still kick ass!
