I have to admit I was quite please...@ Neil: Thanks. I have to admit I was quite pleased with that one. <br /><br />@FC: I agree with you. Oddly enough I really do have alot of affection for this film. I didn't realize how much I liked it until I started talking with people about it. <br /><br />@PoT: Yeah I can see how that happen. Me I got caught up soon as the Al Green started. As for the ending, I don't think there's any actor who instantly makes a movie better then Malcolm Mc Dowell. I heard his voice and was just like, "No Way!"Bryce Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17040954580033470664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8121497265402071351.post-14249054676708218072010-02-14T10:06:22.681-08:002010-02-14T10:06:22.681-08:00Catching the Wolfman tomorrow.

Egad.<br /><br />Despite solid performances, at the end of The Book of Eli, I couldn't help but not care for the entire journey and sacrifice that was made. I just felt no emotional connection to any of iy. And for me, the ending was just plain flat as a result.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8121497265402071351.post-2466841220488933272010-02-14T07:19:51.821-08:002010-02-14T07:19:51.821-08:00I loved this new Wolfman every step of the way, ni...I loved this new Wolfman every step of the way, nice recounting of this movies trajectory to the big screen. I agree with you, the movie does not dwell too long on any given plot point, it doesn't take its time to tell its story. It does go at a quick pace, but I kind of like that about it, it never gets boring. <br /><br />About the movies silliness, I think that comes from the 1941 version of the film. Those old Universal movies did get kind of silly at times, I always found the whole gypsy angle kind of cheesy. But I guess thats part of the whole "Universal Monsters" vibe where the films are filled with horror movie cliches, which I love of course. <br /><br />The clash between werewolves to me was one of the coolest moments in the film, it was kind of intense for me story wise. <br /><br />A fun movie, a bit silly because of its connection with the 1941 version.Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8121497265402071351.post-56630123342116222010-02-14T04:25:57.293-08:002010-02-14T04:25:57.293-08:00"Fellow landscape culinarists" - round o..."Fellow landscape culinarists" - round of applause, sir!Neil Fulwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14686296295535235988noreply@blogger.com
