Movie review : Brooklyn’s Finest

If you’re a fan of either Don Cheadle, Richard Gere or Ethan Hawke, or just like cop movies, then you’ll love Brooklyn’s Finest. This movie is a little like Pulp Fiction without the dark humor.
There are three plots and each is germane to the ending. You see each of the characters crossing paths several times during the movie in small ways, so you know that somehow they’re going to be brought together and they are in a dynamite ending.
I’ve read a number of other reviews of Brooklyn’s Finest and no one gave it anything better than a “B”…good….let me be the first to give it a resounding “A”.

Movie review : Cop Out

Cop Out was hard to watch. It…um… sucked. It had humor and adventure and really bad guys, with independent but loyal female characters. Some moments provoked a giggle or two.
With me so far? Cop Out cast me nostalgically back to 80s police movies like Beverly Hills Cop, Lethal Weapon, Die Hard (Bruce Willis: ” I never saw that movie”) and hell, strangely, Star Wars. Why not? Sounds okay, right?
Cop Out still sucked.
Kevin’s Smith’s latest work is a mish-mash of nonsense that even Bruce Willis can’t redeem. Unless you absolutely love Tracy Morgan’s gummy elucidation, you won’t laugh as much as the script thinks you will. I would have really enjoyed Tracy’s extended ’homage’ debriefing had he taken the marbles from his mouth. Is this actor missing some teeth? Is there some chew in there that precludes comprehensibility? And by what clever notion does common penis/bowel-movement vulgarity equate humor (outside of a South Park episode)?
And Bruce. Sigh. Lovely, sexy, straight-man Bruce. You need to get together with Harrison Ford and commiserate about Extreme Measures and this miserable wacked-out flop. There was some decent buddy-chemistry with Tracy. We know you tried. You know we still love you, right?
We will still pay good money to watch your cute, vulnerable/tough guy shtick.
Just please, don’t do these lightweight jobs that should reasonably embarrass everyone with their names in the credits.
Lastly. Kevin Smith, we won’t hold this against you. We KNOW you can do subversive and funny. This just wasn’t it.
Somewhere between a C+ and B-, but we recommend you wait for the DVD.

Movie review : The Crazies

[No Spoilers ] The Crazies is a good solid zombie flick but certainly not the best of the genre. There isn’t a lot of action to speak of so this doesn’t compare to something like Resident Evil. And I don’t recall a single funny scene so it’s nothing like Shaun of the Dead. What this movie does have over most other zombie flicks is good solid realism. I didn’t just say that did I? :)
Seriously, what would happen if a small Midwestern town suddenly came down with zombiecitis? I’d say this is a pretty good depiction of what to expect.
They play around with the zombie mythology a bit in this film to make it seem more realistic. You’ll see what I mean. And there is a cause for how and why this disease has hit this town. But the movie doesn’t waste time on tracking down causes or secret government conspiracies. All of those details are dispensed with in about 5 minutes of screen time. Maybe less.
