One of Spielberg's decent films. Tom Cruise does a decent job in this role and it has some great action sequences. The concepts of the film are interesting and add a good element to the overall film.
The overall plot is basic and there is a need to suspend your disbelief, but this is such a gorgeous movie it all makes it worthwhile. IMO Tom Hardy did a fantastic job as the villain and definitely added to the overall experience of the film.
If you are going in expecting Nine Inch Nails, you will be disappointed. HTDA is much more synth driven, which does sound a little bit like some of NIN later stuff, but still not quite as heavy. If you like Reznor's soundtracks and the GHOST album, you will probably enjoy this album.
Crazy Eyes does feel like a step back towards the heavier days of Filter, but it all seemed to blend together a bit for me. It was good to hear Richard Patrick's back and forth between singing and screeching again.
Wasn't as good as some of his earlier works, but still has the witty dialog and keeps you guessing on what was going to happen throughout. A solid film.
The third season of HBO's Game of Thrones (based on the novels of George R.R. Martin) continues to follow the War of the Five Kings on its deadly path as Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillane) licks his wounds after a humiliating defeat and Robb Stark (Richard Madden) pushes for a risky offensive against the Lannisters. Meanwhile, Joffrey plans to marry Margaery (Natalie Dormer), Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) works to liberate a city whose economy is built on slavery, and Jon Snow (Kit Harington) finds his undercover mission complicated when he falls in love with a woman from the tribe living beyond the wall.
The season felt a bit slower than the previous 2 but the payoff at the end of the season makes it all worth the wait. What a shock if you're unfamiliar with the source material.
Based on the novels of George R.R. Martin, the second season of HBO's Game of Thrones continues to follow kings, queens, lords, ladies, thieves, liars, and fearsome wild tribes as they battle man and beast alike in all manner of harsh landscapes to gain and keep power for their respective families.
Some of the novelty of the first season already disappears after the 2nd season. There is still lots of action, drama, and violence, but the shock factory of season 1 is gone.
Based on the novels of George R.R. Martin, the first season of HBO's Game of Thrones introduces the kings, queens, and tribes that battle man and beast alike in all manner of harsh landscapes in a seemingly endless quest to gain and keep power.
The best storytelling is certainly on TV right now and this is one the series that really kicked that trend off. Great beginning to an excellent series.
This was a good follow up to Skyfall but it was a slight let down when compared. It felt more like a classic Bond film and a little out of place with Craigs run. Still a fun action flick.
