30 Days of Night movie review, BONUS Brazil

30 Days of Night

I have a feeling there will be a lot of people getting upset with my opinions on these movies. This movie is wackt. There are 2 good things about this movie. The first is the way these vampires look, they have this creepy distorted look to them. They are not the mystical type but human, and the speed they move and attack is sweet. Really good. The second it the greatest villian in movies today. I dont know his name but he is the wanna be vampire. Otherwise it is so lame. The characters are all pretty bad and they tend to overact. The time frame of the events of those thirty days are not put forth very well it seems more like it is a 2 or 3 day event. In all it is pretty generic. It was not scary but what hollywood flick is? This is not a movie you will get involved in, the circumstances through out the movie are very bland but for the horror flick fans you will get your kicks off with the killing, its pretty mean stuff at least on the side of the humans.

Brazil

So instead of wasting your time with 30 days of night try this. Brazil, from the makes of 12 Monkeys. Brazil is a wild ride into the future. If you are anti big government type you will have a good time with this one. I say this because there is so much bureaucracy in this movie you could suffocate. It mocks it. So to the movie, how should I explain this one. It is straight weird. The main character is a man who is great at his job really he is the only one that can get through the paperwork to get the job done. He finds a mistake that has caused a bit of a problem for one person and in his attempt to clear it up he is mistaken to be the same type of problem. He runs into the origional person the paperwork was about who comes to his rescue to "illegaly" fix a problem the government is supposed too. He is a heating and cooling maintenance man. At the same time he is chasing down the woman he sees in his dreams, trying to right the mistake made to the poor man in the beginning. While going through all of this his mother who knows people in high places want to move him up in the world by getting him promoted. It sound wierd I know, the movie is bizarre and absolutely fun. There is terrorism and bombings, big government nightmares, crazy dreams and loads of crazy people in this movie to keep you thinking "what the hell is going on in this world". If you like Transformers you might not like this one.
