GalaxyQuest Review

Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence (Mark's Take)
02/11/2004. Mark checks out this popular Japanese anime flick and discovers the animation is never flat, but demonstrates varying degrees of dimensionality, frequently within the same frame.
 Ghost Rider: Frank's take
01/03/2007. Over the years the emerging genre of big-budgeted comic book adaptations has had its share of mixed reaction, says Frank. Specifically, the Marvel Comics superhero flicks are received with ambivalent forethought. For every successful or critically acclaimed Stan Lee staple ranging from the immensely popular Spider Man movie series we have to endure the duds such as Daredevil and The Fantastic Four.
Ghosts of Mars - who's scared now?
01/10/2001. In 2176 on the planet Mars police taking into custody an accused murderer face the title menace.
Godsend
01/06/2004. In Godsend, Frank finds a run-of-the-mill child-cloning thriller turned into a flaccid frightfest that is all clumsy thumbs, and no controllable finger to decisively point this devilish dud of a movie in the right creative direction.
 Godzilla: Final Wars (Mark's Take)
01/02/2006. Familiar monsters are attacking major international cities. Toho again bids farewell to their Godzilla series. This final film offers a lot of sound and fury and weaves fourteen copyright Toho monsters into one plot, but the film offers nothing that is both new and of interest. The plot is a re-tread of that of Destroy All Monsters, muses Mark. There is a lot of action and some nostalgia, but it is one of the worst Godzilla plots in years.

Gothika (Frank's Take)
01/01/2004. Who says that an overwrought and absurd horror/suspense thriller blessed with a stellar cast cannot be appealing in its occasional lapses? Frank gets scary with his latest movie review.
 Grand Tour: Disaster In Time
01/08/2006. Region 1 :DVD. Anchor Bay Entertainment DV12055. 99 minute film with no extras. Price: $ 9.98 (US) although I got mine for $ 6.99). Stars: Jeff Daniels, Ariana Richards, Emilia Crow, Jim Hayne, Marilyn Lightstone and George Murdock.
 Grindhouse (Frank's take)
01/05/2007. The mere thought of a simmering collaboration between two of Hollywood's noted flashiest and furious filmmakers is mind-boggling, says Frank. Hence, the corrosive artistry of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez certainly doesn't disappoint as their warped worlds collide in the 3-hour thumping bloodbath Grindhouse. Enthralling and exhilarating in its explosive camp-driven excess, Grindhouse is a combustible concoction that shamelessly stimulates the senses.
 Grindhouse (Mark's take)
01/05/2007. Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino set out to recreate the 1970s experience of seeing a bad double feature in fourth run theatre, says Mark. They respectively make sub-films Planet Terror And Death Proof. Planet Terror is a fairly accurate pastiche of an out-of-control grindhouse film. Death Proof is a frequently dull film with homages to road-rage flicks and non-1970s films. It is more a Tarantino film than a grindhouse one.
