A-Ha Surprise.
on December 26, 2013
Posted by: Tigon
from California
A-Ha in the 1980's were hits with their song 'Take Me On', and the Nordic pop band could easily overshadow most pop singers by leaps and bounds for electric, warm acoustics and writing their own songs.
Upbeat techno or sappy EMO electronica- that comparison is up to you. This compilation of songs on disc in 2010 sets their best works after 25 years since their final touring: Catchy and light-hearted, but doesn't have the DVD or bonus tracks as their more pricey albums.
What's great about it: Album for the fans.
What's not so great: Cheesy songs from the 1980s.

Director Sam Raimi brings to life a comic book-like superhero and frantic camera work in the action-adventure comedy Darkman. Universal has done a great job on this 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer. While the image sometimes suffers from some small amounts of grain and dirt, overall, this picture looks very crisp with vivid colors and even black levels. The audio is presented in Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround in English and French, sounding much better than expected. While the mix is limited to only the front and center speakers, the bulk of this soundtrack has a very bombastic and explosive feel to it. Also included on this disc are subtitles in Spanish and English captions. Extra features are relatively scant -- the only supplements available on this disc are some thin production notes, a few bios on the cast and crew, and a single theatrical trailer for the movie.

Darkman a Blast.
on December 26, 2013

This movie is a straight up guilty pleasure that held some originality for itself in 1990 putting every action-movie trick in the book. Liam Nesson plays a skin-graft bio-chemist slain and left for dead by gangsters only to use his facial graft technology to impersonate any man he wants and revenge on his killers.
Directed by Sam Raimi of 'Spiderman' thru 'Spiderman 3' early 2000, and with Frances Mcdormand before 'Fargo' and 'Transformers 3'- Liam Neeson shows particular action chops before 'Taken' and hams it up as the tortured hero. A movie to any fan of the talents listed.
What's great about it: Liam Neeson, Frances Mcdormand, Sam Raimi
What's not so great: Cheap special effects. The sequels are AWFUL.

Eternity ends Well

In the 30 years Ministry has been an Industrial Metal institution, good old Al Jourgensen leaves his final mark of bowing out with 'Beer' on the scathes against Fox News, prescription drug commercials, shots against the Military Industrial Complex, class wars, and has been long declared by every musician living #even Green Day# as the loudest band EVER. If either Rob Zombie or Metallica has left you dear metal heads out there disappointed, may I recommend Ministry; This album will scare the neighbors into calling the police.

Smooth Crime Drama.
on October 23, 2013
Posted by: Tigon
from California
A smooth movie that twists on the subject of human trafficking and the call girl scenes of 1980's England, Bob Hoskins would get an Oscar nod on this film before playing in the popular 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit.' Fans of Michael Caine will also be intrigued, but its the call girl Simone (Cathy Tyson) that will be the mysterious draw on her character twists. Dark and smart; a flipside away from 'Pretty Woman.' However, the subject matter is nothing unfamiliar on TV.

Yes !

Toni Haliday of 'Curve' and 'Scylla' makes this next comeuppance after 'Doppelganger' and drops a series of techno and harmonics with some metal overtones to this late 90's album that could shame most bands out of all of 2000. Sample a few songs before you jump the gun, but if your a fan of 'Nine Inch Nails', alternative rock, and love techno/ hip-hop synths this is an album you'd regret not to hear. Stellar music no matter where you take it.
What's great about it: More original than most music than you think you know.
What's not so great: Techno, "shoegazing", listen before you buy.

Play it Anywhere
on September 23, 2013
Posted by: Tigon
from California
Dropped in 1994, the Rolling Stones have a heck of a revival in this jazzy rock almost country-style album that could be played in any bar, any car, any workplace and still sound fresh and familiar. 'Love is Strong' is the single, but 'Brand New Car' and 'Sweethearts Together' also stride smooth with the rest of the album. 'Thru and Thru' is alone the most hardest hard rock song by far that could be anthem to any country bar in town. Bluesy hard rock that won't disappoint.
What's great about it: Simple hard rock and blues greatness.
What's not so great: Non-fans of the Rolling Stones may need to steer clear.

Look 'Inside' Around.
on September 5, 2013
Posted by: Tigon
from California
Reflective to the current news trends of a corrupt and flawed US economic system has been deformed, the doc retells the crooked practices of banks that lead to the 2008 recession, bank collapses, and mortgage meltdown crises that could have been prevented with all anger and enlightenment. The image of seeing top US college professors upholding flawed economic policies that DON'T work all in the name of paid representation alone is worth a look.
What's great about it: Won Oscar for Best Documentary 2010
What's not so great: Familiar to news reports past, likely to end up on TV

'Soup' has a smooth flavor, but no spice.
on September 5, 2013
Posted by: Tigon
from California
Rolling Stones' 13th US album and UK's 11th album, 'Soup' has a mellow flavor that still holds the Stone's bluesy rock roots but also holds a lot of funk and some synthesizers on the side. Not a lot of heavy tunes, 'Angie' and 'Heartbreaker' are the cornerstones to this 10 track album. 'Winter' is an orchestral masterpiece so smooth it feels like snow on a holiday. Yet, the band shows its stride for being more easy listening than hard rock this time around, for now.
What's great about it: Rock funk attatchments. An album for fans.
What's not so great: Some language.

Rent it and Forget it.

The actresses are the sole good thing in this toilet humor comedy of random jokes, good for people with no attention for details, but this movie had no fun to it.

Fair Remake of 'Recall.'
on August 4, 2013
Posted by: Tigon
from California
A special effects heavy remake of an already good movie that came out years ago with Arnold Schwarzenegger. I liked Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale in this movie, Bryan Cranston was good, and the plot holds well on ideas- if you haven't seen either movie, give both a shot, but I preferred the original over this one.
What's not so great: Rent it first.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
