Movie Reviews with halochief996: War Horse

Goodbye 2011. Hello 2012. Well anyway things have been going good for me so far. I got a new car, and now I'm just preparing to go back to college. Oh yeah its going to be fraternity rush when I get back. Now that is going to be fun. Anyway enough talking, lets get going with this blog.

The Devil Inside

OK I'm going to be honest. I like Horror video games like Dead Space, Resident Evil, and Silent Hill. AND DON'T EVER RECOMMEND ME THIS GAME-Siren Blood Curse-EVER. I REFUSE TO PLAY THAT GAME EVER AGAIN.
Now Horror movies well its hit and miss. The reason is usually every horror movie I've ever seen usually involves some stupid teenagers who go into some stupid haunted house, forest, or farm, and are being killed one at a time by some psychotic murderer or supernatural monster. I mean the story and characters are stupid enough. The only good part of the movie I will say is usually there are some naked chicks with nice boobs.
Now The Devil Inside is another Exorcism movie. I mean I thought we had enough of these movies. I mean in my opinion there are many horror movies about exorcism. Some that are good and some that are bad. But of course we need another movie about exorcism. Yeah if somebody could refund the time I wasted watching this film, that would be nice.

Plot: A woman named Mrs Rossi murdered some people a while back. Her daughter, Isabella Rossi (Fernanda Andrade), has always wanted to understand why she did it, and is it possible that she could end up like her mom. So she hires a film crew to document her journey in Italy, where her mother is in a mental hospital, as she finds out the truth. But as their travels take them deeper from witnessing various exorcisms to visits with the crazy mom, things start to get stranger and terrifying. Yeah terrifying as in horrible excuse for a story and for a quick buck. I find the story to not be original, shallow, and dumb. Just another exorcism story. Now I hear its based on a true story. So some crazy woman who thinks she is possessed by a demon, now that's something I laugh at and say to myself: WHAT A LOSER. Man I think people need to get out more. Seriously. Now I'll be honest I'm not Christian, so if you believe this stuff, that I apologize for being disrespectful.

Genre: This is a horror movie. Now there are some scary and demented parts. I mean if you are into that stuff then by all means watch it. Its pretty sick and weird. Parts of the movie made me jump, but in all honesty, after watching that film, I realized I'm not Christian (Technically I'm Buddhist, but in all honesty I don't care for any religion. I believe in god, but I just believe in him in my own way), so what the heck do I have to get scared about. I mean in Buddhism, the saying goes if you do bad things, bad things are going to happen to you. So my advice to all, don't do bad things. Do what is right because it is right. READ MY MOTTO. Honestly besides some scenes making me jump, I was really not scared of this. More on the lines of bored. Of course if you are really religious and believe in this stuff, then by all means this movie will be really scary to you.

Overall: If I could rewind time, and tell myself, halochief996 DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM, GO PLAY CALL OF DUTY OR BATTLEFIELD 3 JUST DON'T WATCH THIS FILM, I would. I knew from the start when I saw the preview, the movie was going to be bad. I'm telling you now, don't watch this film unless you think it will scare you. Honestly though there are better exorcism films than this. This film belongs in the bad exorcism movie film pile. Hell if you need a good scary movie to watch go watch Paranormal activity.

War Horse

Steven Spielberg makes some really good films. I mean one of my favorite films made by him is Saving Private Ryan. Anyway when I saw the preview of this film, it brought back memories of a movie I once saw called Black Beauty. So yeah I had to watch it. I will say better than that crappy exorcism movie.



Plot: The story is interesting and touching. A horse is bought, and raised by a boy named Albert Narracott (Jeremy Irvine). The horse is named Joey, and its a strong and tough horse. Anyway the horse is bought mainly to help Joey's family's farm. However a powerful storm destroys the crops they are planting, and since World War 1 has started, the horse is sold to the British army. Of course Albert is mad. But the horse must be sold in order for his family to keep the farm. Now this is where the story gets even more interesting. The movie basically follows the horse's journey as it tries to survive the war and return to his original owner, Albert. Its good and touching story. I almost cried tears of joy.



Genre: A good mix of drama, war, and action with small instances of humor. Steven Spielberg really knows how to make movies. The acting is superb, and the special effects and settings are really remarkable. From the beautiful countryside of Great Britain to the dirty and wartorn battlefields of France, everything in this movie is presented really beautifully. There are some battle scenes but nothing really graphic like Saving Private Ryan. Everything is mildly violent but still easy enough for maybe a young child to watch for the most part.





Overall: A really good film. After watching it, I felt really happy and good. I enjoyed the film a lot. If you are looking a really awesome feel good film, then I definitely recommend you watch this film.

Asian Star of the Week
Kim So-Yeon (김소연, 金素妍)


Profession: Actress
Birthdate: 1980-Nov-02

Dam what a hottie. Something to make me forget about that god awful exorcism movie. She's in some pretty good Asian dramas that I haven't even hear about, but I'm sure they must be entertaining to watch. Hopefully there are subtitles. Oh who am I kidding once she comes on I'm not going to even pay attention to the film.











Well that's it for today's blog. Anyway hope you guys are doing OK. Until next time, Happy Gaming. And go see Warhorse, and avoid The Devil Inside.
