The Review: Dead Rising Watchtower

I will now be titling DVDiculous, TV Slut, Way Back, Babbling Old Man, and Demand It as The Review because it makes no sense to have that many different titles for things I watch. Today I saw a Crackle made movie called Dead Rising: Watchtower based off of the Dead Rising video game. The trailer for this looked fun but unfortunately the movie wasn't. I wasn't expecting too much. Just some fun and crazy ways to watch zombies get killed in film. This kept switching between goofy, serious, gory, then taking itself way too serious or me to be fully committed to it. I think I just described bad sex.

This movie revolves around an internet reporter which no one takes seriously in this. He and his photographer are are caught up in the middle of a zombie outbreak in a quarantined zone. They both manage to escape but she ends up back there gathering information on the military's role in events. Meanwhile he ends up hooking up with an infected girl that takes the cure, Zombrex, to stay normal. They hook up with a mother that stabbed her zombie daughter but still thinks she is alive because she is crazy and eventually she is gonna find her daughter and be killed by her.

Theater Whore: Let's Be Cops

Let's Be Cops 6/10

Finally got to check out the movie Let's Be Cops starring Damon Wayans Jr. and Jake Johnson. While there are parts of this movie that are funny as hell it makes the same mistake a lot of comedies involving police do in that there is always a part where it becomes too serious. Sometimes its for a moment but other times, like in this one, it gets serious and stays there for too long and then it isn't that entertaining anymore. Keegan-Michael Key shows up and is funny as hell as well as Rob Riggle. Both of them are funny no matter what they do. There's no need to rush out and see this. You'll laugh just as hard when it's on cable.
