Star Wars Episode 3
I finally saw Episode 3. I can’t believe I didn’t see this in the theaters. I thought it was great. A definite thumbs up. I heard so many things about this movie and most people I talked to said it was just like the others…"bad!" The effects were the best I have seen in any movie. It was very enjoyable and completed the circle in the Star Wars story. I finally got to see Anakin become Vader. There was absolutely no reason for Chewbaca to know Yoda but I loved the fact that Chewy was there. Any movie that has at least one Wookie gets, at minimum, a sideways thumb. Let that be lesson to all future film makers….MORE WOOKIES!!!
Saw
I can’t give this movie a thumbs down because it wasn’t a bad movie. It actually was well made for a low-budget horror flick. Perhaps it was just over-hyped by pretty much everyone I talked to but it wasn’t the "best" horror movie I have ever seen. Silence of the Lambs was a much better horror/suspense thriller. I am not huge on this genre. It’s not my favorite thing to watch. I understand people like it for a thrill and I have no problem with that but I found Scream to be a million times more enjoyable and creative. I did like the way they sped up scenes to show a lapse in time. Other than that, this movie didn’t scare me or really entertain me.
