Birdemic 2: The Resurrection

Birdemic 2: The Resurrection

 (2013) 13 hours ago via Rotten Tomatoes

Well, here you have it, a sequel to a one of the worst films you will ever witness, and even though the effects are "more consumable" than the first, the story is just as bad and the ego that "Director" James Nguyen brings to the table is far far worse. My jaw was on the floor from boredom and the acting is too wooden to even care. The sound editing is absolutely awful and the editing in general (even though he nothing god to work with) is dreadful. I am never going to watch these movies again, because they make we feel extremely dumb inside. "Birdemic 2: The Resurrection" is a slap in the face to Hollywood, and not is a good way.

Birdemic: Shock And Terror

Birdemic: Shock And Terror

 (2009) 13 hours ago via Rotten Tomatoes

James Nguyen has constructed the worst piece of cinema in history, and the final product shows that he has never been to film school, never studied films or how to make them for that matter, and it became a cluster F$#K of a movie, filled with cheap gags, the worst visuals on the face of the earth, stomach turning sound design, horrendous editing, and direction that makes absolutely no sense. With takes being reused over and over again and effects that could have been created by a kid in grade school learning after effects, "Birdemic" is THE WORST film I have ever seen and will ever see. The funny thing is, I hoped the entire time, that this film was a joke, but it is surely not. Let's just say that you must be extremely bored if you take the time to watch this thing.

Gravity

Gravity

 (2013) 1 day ago via Rotten Tomatoes

Pulse-pounding sound design, gut-wrenching performances, and visually masterful, "Gravity" is one of the more surprisingly beautiful films of 2013. Sandra Bullock and George Clooney both deliver superb performances and if Bullock does not get a nomination there is something seriously wrong. Right from the films opening shot you feel like you truly are up in space with these characters as you learn many things about their backstories. As things continue to create obstacles as they are about to journey back home, the films intensity increases in every way, creating an experience like no other. This film must be seen in 3D to get the full experience. You feel really alive watching this film and the sound will pull you in and make you hold your breath. The cinematography definitely deserves a nod here as well as the direction. "Gravity" is absolutely fantastic!

Captain Phillips

Captain Phillips

 (2013) 1 day ago via Rotten Tomatoes

From it's great pacing to it's astonishing cast, "Captain Phillips" is the type of film that leaves nothing left to explain about this story. Tom Hanks gives one of the best performances of his entire career here and the newcomers (the pirates) are all fantastic and perfectly casted. This film is one of the more realistic films I have seen all year, because everything feels real when it needs to and the emotion is just jumping off the screen and making your heart race until it's final moments, which will leave you in tears. The shaky cam in this film does not bother me too much, since it is a Paul Greengrass feature and that is what he is best known for, and really the only thing that I had any issues with was the trailers giving away a bit too much of the film. Overall, it is one of the most impressive and well-executed films of 2013! Coming into Oscar season, it definitely deserves some nods.

Rush

Rush

 (2013) 2 days ago via Rotten Tomatoes

Fast-paced, adrenaline-pumping, and bone-chilling! "Rush" will pull you into this very stylistically directed picture and keep you very intrigued for the first half and absolutely blow you away in the second. The real-life rivalry between Niki Lauda and James Hunt has been talked about for ages, but never has a film stayed this raw to the source material, displaying every minor detail about the affects Formula 1 racing can have on people. The brutality of the races will always be present, and they do not shy away from than at all during this film. The directing is Oscar-worthy from Ron Howard, the sound design is impeccable, the acting, especially by Daniel Bruhl, is superb, but the one thing that this film has that outdoes every film I have seen this year, is it's gorgeous cinematography in and around every scene. "Rush" has it all, and it is easily one of my favourites of 2013!
