    I was a bit disappointed about Children of Men. I hope this one will be better.

    This doesn't look to even remotely similar to CoM. More like Crank, but with a touch less violence and a screenplay larger than a business card.

    I might go and give it a shot, it looks interesting at least. And I do like Clive Owen

    Clive Owen is alright, CoM just isn't what they claimed it would be. Couldn't care less about their lengthy scenes that required a lot of choreography. I mean, I don't watch scifi flicks for their artsy-fartsy style. I just wanted to kick ass and chew bubblegum...

    I don't know what Children of Men is, but Shoot 'em Up is a spoof....

    I remember when Crank came on the University movie channel last spring. My roommate wanted to see it, so we turned it on. Two hours later, when the credits finally rolled, he turned to me and said, with utter conviction,
    "That was the worst movie I [i]ever[/i] saw." I agreed completely.

    One views Crank to watch nearly two hours of violence with a paper-thin plot. I was very entertained, as were most of my friends. It isn't meant to be an academy award winner, nor is it meant to show up in the history books as anything novel. It's just mindless entertainment.

    Have you seen Battle Royale 2? It's so mindless, it's painful... it's also hard to believe it's a sequel. You'll be counting down the casualties before the film is over, literally. It's truly the bottom of the barrel.

    I have not. I think it's a bit above what I'd call "absurd."

    I saw Shoot Em Up yesterday and it was pretty good. Not much of a plot (but then what do you expect from a movie that's shoot out after shoot out?), plenty of over the top action and comedy though.

    Finally got around to watching it last night. Another movie with a thin plot designed to hold together a whole lot of unbelievable and unrealistic action... And I loved every minute of it :D I actually really liked this movie, it lives up to its title and doesn't leave you expecting anymore.
