February 2, 2010 - Aliens; Zombieland

Watched a classic in the wee hours, then watched an overrated newbie later in the day. Pretty much, I wish I hadn't done the latter.

(30) Aliens (1986): What can I say about this film that hasn't already been said? One of the great films of the last 25 years, and hands down one of the greatest sequels ever made.

4.5 Stars

(31) Zombieland (2009): This movie was all the rage in theaters. Well, it didn't come to the theaters I'm loyal to so I waited for the DVD release. Honestly, I do not see how this movie garnered so much attention, let alone rave reviews and talks of it becoming a cult classic. It was boring, young dude never stopped talking, Bill Murray graced the movie in a handful of scene that were ridiculous, and in the end not a damn thing happened.

I generally don't fall for all the hype about mainstream movies, but figured this one must be the exception. Never again. Save your money and watch a good, fun horror movie like Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (2007).

1 Star
