21
"21" is the fact-based story about six MIT students who were trained to become experts in card counting and subsequently took Vegas casinos for millions in winnings.
The film is not bad, only lacks a bit here and there, but overall decent. 6.5/10
I haven't seen that film as I used to be a croupier and know all about card counting and how easy it is to spot. It's the only way to turn the odds in a casino in your favour but is easy to spot and relies on the other players being able to play the right way and TBH a plumber would not want to watch a film about plumbers which is why I'd never watch it as I'd spot too many mistakes.
Tropic Thunder
I liked it, although no masterpiece, it has a lot of funny moments. I especially liked Robert Downey Jr. Would rate it 7/10
Saw V
And the hunt for Jigsaw continues, part 5. Meanwhile the movies tend to get a little bit boring as it's always the same, but they are still enjoyable to watch. I'll rate it only 6/10 though, as the suspense almost gets lost immediately.
Max Payne
Not a lot to tell you about this one, it was very disappointing. I'll rate it a 5/10 at best, and if you wanna watch it, rent it or just d/l it, but don't waste too much money for it.
I'm not gonna explain what the movies I watched lately are about, as surely everyone should know these films, I'm only gonna rate them shortly.
Babylon A.D. - 5.5/10
Indiana Jones 4 - 6.5/10
Eagle Eye - 7/10
The Mummy 3 - 6/10
I also watched the new Bond movie, but that was on Sunday evening, I was drunk, and honestly, I cannot remember one single action of the movie :lol: have to rewatch it.
I would have given Indiana Jones 4 much lower than 6.5. I was very disappointed with that film. Not anywhere near as good as the old trilogy. Where I would have given Mummy 3 more. Although changing the leading lady ruined it a bit for me.
I was also disappointed with Indy 4, but it wasn't that bad, just a little overdone.
A little overdone? Some parts were completely stupid. The part where they were driving through the jungle having a gun fight with the other car. How none of the bullets hit them is impossible. And the ants attacking them was just as silly. In the original films it was all tongue in cheek, and did stretch the realms of reality, but not quite to the cartoon style action of the last film. For me it ruined the series more than added to it.
