We're back with part 2 of our list detailing what happened to all those great films that played at Fantastic Fest here in Austin this last year. You can find the first half of the list right here. You'll find the same info as the first post below, but it...
To be totally honest, Ninja Assassin wasn't a movie I necessarily loved from start to finish. It boasts a lot more blood than brains, and it's shot in a way that makes you appreciate the depths of black your plasma TV can render ... but it doesn't really...
You can always count on plenty of shirtless guy scenes in movies, and this year offered some doozies. A werewolf, a classic detective, a badass ninja and a comic book superhero are just a few of the heavenly creatures who graced big screens across the...
At this time last year, I was proudly tasked with chronicling 2008's finest moments in 'big-screen mayhem, violence, destruction and other such shenanigans.' I've still opted to sort these sequences out by specific manner of cinematic excess, and I've...
You would think that December would be a good month for the wide release of animated features, especially those targeted for the whole family. But get this: the animated movie with the highest opening weekend ever is 'Beavis & Butt-Head Do America,' a...

I LOVED this movie. I didnt get to see it in the theaters but have now seen it on DVD & cable several times and I just can not get enough of it. Rain is HOT. I didnt think it was... gory or too bloody. ALL of the fight scenes were awesome. Rain did all his own stunts and trained for 8 mos, 8 hrs a day to get his body as cut as it was and he learned how to use all the weapons in this movie. The only thing he used was a safety harness. I do agree that the story line could have been a little better but I liked the story line of when he was young. I would love to see Rain again in another Wachowski movie or in Ninja Assassin 2 - maybe going after all the other clans. I'm an action movie freak and I thought it was an exciting movie. Loved seeing Rain kick butt!!!! Oh and the girl was Calypso from the Pirate movies... Full Review
Watched this movie last night with my wife, and couldn't keep from laughing. Terms like "Ninja Piercing Bullets" and "Emo Ninja" kept us rolling in our seats. The Onion (AV Club) ... had it right, there was almost no forward momentum in this film, and the middle fight scene just went on and on forever. At a point I stopped paying attention to the fight scene and started to wonder if it would ever end. Really if you're going to make a hero that can heal himself...you might as well go the bad-ass direction with it so you feel good about him winning. His lack of emotion and engagement with the rest of the cast really was lacking and did not give you any real connection to his character. All in all this movie is good for you to go see if you want to spend the entire time riffing it. I look forward to the Rifftrax for this flim more than the actual release on DVD or your 7-year old game device du jour. Full Review
May go see this tonight. However, I doubt it will be as good as the cult classic Chinese Super Ninjas.
