Well Sunday I wasn't feeling to great and by the wee hours on Monday morning i was full blown sick!!
With all that in mind I have spent the past two days confined to my couch watching films and bad television. So with little in the way of interesting stories I thought I'd share a small film review with anyone who is interested.
First off we have Quantum of Solace, the new bond film, this film starts off pretty much exactly where Casino Royale finished with Bond on the trail of a mysterious organisation who murdered Vesper, that chick who betrayed him in Casino Royale. The action is over the top and the story line pretty poor by even Bond film standards...I'm afraid I would only give it a 5/10.
Next I watched Transporter 3. I am a fan of Transporter films as there is no need for complicated plot, no need for plot twists and turns just plain old action in the form of Jason Stratham, a transporter who delivers 'packages' on a no questions asked policy. The action is awesome with well planned martial art fight sequences and the car chases and stuns are awesome, once again the hand of Luc Besson is clear and I give this film a 7/10.
Punisher Warzone is fantastic. Having enjoyed the previous effort in the remake of this comic book series. This one is by far the most brutal and most comic book of the lot. Frank Castle is out for more vengeance against the mob bosses or New York city, this time he is up against the Jigsaw. Every scene in this film is sculpted to give the most graphic comic book gore I have seen in a while and thus it gets an 8/10.
Finally Resident Evil Degeneration, the first fully animated film in the franchise. This is made by Capcom (the company who made the Video Games) and is set right after Resident Evil 4. Its good for what it is but to be honest I preferred the video game film Final Fantasy Advent Children and I'm not over impressed by this film. It gets a 5/10.
Anyway I'm hopeful I will be back on my feet by Thursday.
