DVD Release of the week:

Slumdog Millionaire

The cinderella story of the year. If you would have told me two years that Danny Boyle the idiosyncratic director of 28 Days Later and Trainspotting would direct a movie that would be nominated for 8 Oscars I would probablt have slapped you. In its defense this film really does deserve although the acclaim. It is beautifully written, amazing cinematography, and gives some of the most understated performances of the year. It is definetly a must see for EVERYONE.

Top 5 Worst James Bond Movies.....(Caution contains 60% Roger Moore).


5. The Man With The Golden Gun.

Ok how bad this movie is. Roger Moore. Three Nipples.













4. Diamonds Are Forever


Meh. This was Connery's last turn as James Bond until 1983's Never Say Never Again. It was pretty obvious during the entire movie that he believed it was last one. Though it was probably the box office failure and totally underappreciated Zardoz that made him come crawling back for more.







3. Die Another Day
When this movie came out I thought that it would be the end of the Bond frnachise. The film was a mediocre success at the box office. Luckily MGM realized their mistake, and took a step back, and reenvisioned the franchise with the culmination of the darker Casino Royale.












2. Moonraker

Hands down this movie had the most ridiculous and ludicrous plot line of all the Bond movies. Roger Moore seemed to sleep through the entire film. The only redeeming factor was the return of Richard Kiel as Jaws, but even the man with the strongest bite couldn't salvage this cheeky disaster.












1. Octopussy


I'm pretty sure the title says it all. The only scene worth watching is the opening chase scene. After that it's a sheer tale of studio excess.

New Release of the week.

Quantum of Solace
It seems a lot of fan boys were upset with the lastest Bond movie. Following 2006's Casino Royale, the film stays with the gritty style and keeps on stirring clear of the hokey silly and ludicrous plot lines of old.
Though Bond was presented as a empathetic revenge fueled human being. People didn't seem to appreciate this, and were upset with the sloppy Bourne-esque action sequences.....and I must say Im one of them. Nothing against Daniel Craig, because he is becoming the best Bond ever before our eyes. I blame it all on the damn writer's strike. The film was rushed before the strike, and it shows extremely bad. Despite mixed reviews from fans and critics alike, it still scored gold at the box office. Undoubtedly will result in another one. Hopefully there won't be a strike coming up.
