Maggie
6/10
You
remember that scene in Shaun Of The Dead where Shaun's mom turns into
a zombie and he is struggling to kill her because she is his mom and
he loves her and all that? Imagine an entire movie based off that one
emotion and you'll have Maggie. This movie was far better than I was
expecting it to be and continues with these Arnold Schwarzenegger
films that end up good with no attention like The Last Stand. I never
saw any trailers for this but saw the cover art plenty of times
online and Amazon with no desire to check it out. But randomly while
ironing I decided to. I'm glad that I did.
Terminator
Genisys 1/10
Normally
when I wrote a review I will say spoilers ahead but if you've seen
the poster or trailer for this movie then its already had a major
part of the story spoiled. I actually wonder what this would've been
like if it hadn't. When that particular scene happened it would have
been far more surprising and I would have given this a 2 instead of a
1. And that 1 is because I smiled whenever Pops aka T-800 aka Arnold
Schwarzenegger smiled. I will try to explain what the hell this
garbage ass movie was about even though Terminator Genisys couldn't.
I
have heard and read some reviews for this movie that blatantly prove
that folks don't actually watch the movies they are reviewing.
“Arnold deputizes Johnny Knoxville and madness ensues!” While
that does occur its such a small part of all the crazy shit that
happens in this movie. It'd be like saying “Sigourney Weaver and
Bill Paxton head into space and crazy things happen!” This movie,
The Last Stand, was far better than I thought it was gonna be. The
trailer made it look like a stupid buddy cop film where a small town
is in danger. Nope. This film is violent as fuck.
This
drug lord that is gonna be executed Gabriel Cortez played by Eduardo
Noriega is being taken to die by Forrest Whitaker and a bunch of cops
until he makes the most ridiculous escape ever. I mean, this was ConAir levels of crazy reminiscent of a Wile E. Coyote cartoon. A giant
magnet picks up his truck, cops are killed, he gets away, and kidnaps
an agent played by Genesis Rodriguez. I mean, if you're gonna kidnap
a chick kidnap the hottest one, right? He also happens to be in the
fastest car ever. This thing goes faster than helicopters!
