Madex Quickie Movie Review: Double Feature: Hell Boy 2 & Wanted

Posted by madex in movies, whateves on July 14th, 2008 @ 6:31 pm

I tried to see all this summer’s blockbusters, there were so many, and they keep coming. Over all, I’ve been an impressed movie goer.

Hell Boy 2: Is above its call to duty. It was really well done, and really fun. It never lost site of comic book antics, and get an upgrade from the Pans Labyrinth art direction. Well worth the jokes, the action and the cats. One special part involving a “Baby” is worth admission alone. Del Toro can do no wrong.
4 out of 5 Madex’s. See it in theaters.

Wanted: Way more then I thought I was going to see. I thought I was going to see matrix with a hot skeletor ass flash. But it was so much more then that. It was a nice slice of ridiculous action spliced with fight club cutting room left overs and you get to hear M. Freemon say the F bomb. Over all I was impressed and it was way more racy then other films dare to be. Which is nice, there was sex, vulgarity, fat people and a nice helping of violence. This film doesn’t even bat an eye lash at killing 1,000’s of people for the sake of a good action sequence. You can’t help but think that Shia Lebouef was up for this roll and pissed it away to be in Indiana Oops: and the Crystal of the..oh no one remembers anymore.
4 out of 5 Madex’s. Also, see in a theater.

Too Soon?

I didn’t really think there would be a time with it was ok to put images of what appears to be a plane crashing into the side of a building in a advertisement. Let alone the most anticipated summer blockbuster of 2008; The Dark Knight. And then I really didn’t think they would put that poster Life size on a Building. But they did. The new W still isn’t finished at Sunset and Vine, but they waisted no time getting the advertisement billboards finished. I can’t wait to see this film, but seeing this billboard larger then life is still tacky. I guess it takes less then 7 years to “NEVER FORGET”.

Dark Knight: Midnight show (thursday) @ the Vista.

A dramatic reading of a real life break-up letter.

Please add volume it’s imporant.
