The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)

with one comment

Well-made and enjoyable film for those who like the genre and can tolerate a bit of C.S. Lewis, with his deus ex machina resolution.

It is always interesting to see who a film casts as the villains! In this case we get those evil, swarthy, conquistador-era Spaniards. I am sure in their day they felt as righteous as the Marines in Iraq do today. Future villain material?

Highlander (1986)

without comments

OK, so the film is 22 years old, but with all the hype I was expecting something that was not such dismal tripe. By the time the film was over, I wanted to cut MY head off.
