Well, if you hated LAKE PLACID, it looks like you'll hate this one. But if you liked Lake Placid it isn't a sure thing that you'll like this one. Personally... I'm just hoping it's a short movie. I see it Tuesday. Here's the Juice
Anyhow I saw Renny Harlin's final chance at hollywood sucess tonight (for those who dont know that is deep blue sea) and i must say i have mixed reactions. Some things were blatantly stupid, 98% of the characters were shit, and the cgi sharks were fake (animatronics not bad). I must give credit though to the unfinished scene at the end, it reminded me of the days of the classic Jaws nintendo game and i feel they should keep it like that to pay homage since they steal so much from that movie already (not to mention they should save their money).
Yeah you can file this one into the Damn it should have been cooler, file. It ripped off just about every movie in the last five years. It had a few intense parts, but you just cant shake how shallow the characters are, and its a damn shame. When i think back at this movie i cant really recall what i liked about it. What i cant explain is how i was entertained during it despite all this. During the film i didnt really have a problem but when i think back to it i do. So many things are just irrational, like the helicopter scene (i wont give it away but its just stupid), but of course i get the common lash back that its just a movie, of course this is from the same people who called Clerks dull and whined because it was in black and white when i made them watch it, damn uncultured bastards, must they be spoon fed everything. Expect this to be panned by the critics, but make a pretty penny in the oppening weekend...
Peace out Juice...
