The Condemned

'Stone Cold' Steve Austin
Vinnie Jones

Surprisingly OK for a no-brainer action movie that was brought to you by WWE!

A mix of Running Man/Battle Royale. Lots of violence and silly lines from Jones and was disappointed that Austin didn't say he'd open a can of whoop-ass.

6/10

Yes, there are plot holes, slightly non-canonical quirks and it's cheesy in places. However I expected that, and in all honesty it's what is to be expected from Michael Bay. Go see it for a few hours of brain dead fun, giant robots, fantastic visuals, great sound effects and if you want, Meg Fox in white trousers (giggidy).

Film snobs have berated this, but it isn't supposed to be a brilliant film it's just supposed to be awesome (dude). Anybody expecting anything else probably doesn't know anything about the Transformers and their target audience, or dopily went into the wrong screen.

However, I do envy that the Batman series were/are clearly the movies that were given the best in the industry - it does show what can happen with the right attention to films being made that are based on ANY comic books. It's a pity that they couldn't do this with the Transformers since I reckon with all the brilliant special effects it would have been a Batman beater.

9.5/10

I really enjoyed it, but never a 9.5. I couldn't give it that purely because it tried to be too gimmicky with comedy robots at the start and needless humour with the mother on campus which was just awful. Thankfully the final hour of the film is absolutely fantastic.

Saw this too. Was actually OK considering it was doomed to be pretty formulaic. Vinnie Jones added the sadistic/comedy edge it needed and Steve Austin was surprisingly decent as the antihero. I was disappointed at the end because...

Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!

Everyone gets killed. No lessons learned, just Stone Cold Justice dealt out. I guess it was technically a happyish ending but hugely unsatisfying.

End Spoiler Alert!

5/10 from me.

The Hangover

Me and the missus went to see it on Saturday night and it had me in fits of laughter. Your usual silly, crude and rude jokes. Tyson is awful in it though. Not known mainly for his acting ability i know!

If you go and see it, stay for the credits!

8/10

Think of it err, as like the food critic at the end of Ratatouille; doesn't matter about it's brilliance, but it just so happens at that time the right buttons were hit.

Even with the annoying comedy?

No, it wasn't that great, but I suppose it was better than the woeful 'teenage antics in bedroom' connotations from the first film. It also wasn't really the point of the film at all, so it was easy to look the other way in the brief scene or two that they were present in.

As said - I wasn't objective for that review.
