Return of the One Sentence Movie Review

I really enjoyed Jhoom Barabar Jhoom (2007), and so did my Canadian girlfriend. (Yeah, taking another week off. JBJ was entertaining nonsense, but I really have nothing profound to say about it.)

Son of Godzilla (1967)

You’ll have to get over a few hurtles to enjoy Son of Godzilla, the first being its title. Japanese audiences knew this as Kaiju-shima no Kessen Gojira no Musuko. Obviously its American distributor changed the title to force a parallel … Continue reading

Extreme Crisis (1998)

I hate to say it, but if I had to choose between The Rock and Extreme Crisis, I’d choose the former.

Moonraker (1979)

While Roger Moore is his usual 007 self, throwing out one-liners like no other, the movie parodies itself in other ways. The biggest example of this is Jaws, whose inability to actually die is played to the point of absurdity in this movie.

Transporter 2 (2005)

Transporter 2 (2005) aka Carga Explosiva 2 Now this is more like it. This film was easily better than Ultraviolet, undoubtedly because Jason Statham’s Frank Martin character is a lot more cooler, likable, and human than Milla Jovavich’s Vio…

The Scorpion King (2002)

The Scorpion King (2002) AKA: O Escorpião Rei   Once in a while I need to watch some movie that wasn’t made in China, so I caught this on television. It’s a spin-off of the recent Mummy films that were quite successful at the box office, …

Jungle Stories, Winter 1947

Man, it’s hard coming up with something clever every day. I don’t know how Scott Adams does it.

The Taming of the Jerk

Dulha Mil Gaya (2010) is never going to win any awards for originality; the story of the scorned or neglected wife winning back her husband by harnessing the twin forces of jealousy and a fabulous makeover is one of those stories that recurs over and o…

2011 – This Year in Hong Kong Action Cinema

Well, we come to the end of another year and a rather prosperous one in terms of Hong Kong martial arts/action output. Although I haven’t seen any movies on the list (I received three of them for Christmas, though), I’d like to think that w…

Invincible Armour (1977)

To be perfectly honest, this film is actually closer in concept to being a sequel to The Secret Rivals than the film’s actual sequel was.
