Since the ‘Expendables 2’ is coming out next month I thought it would be fun to do ‘the best of’ for the three biggest action stars, done Schwarzenegger a while ago and will link that below, a couple of weeks ago I did Willis’s best films and now I am doing Stallone’s best films and worst because I am not a huge fan of his. Just to point out that Stallone is a terrible actor and this list is so small that I am even including two of his films that I don’t like because it’s relevant to another release (Dredd). I haven’t actually watched a great deal of his films but apparently everything that isn’t part one of the series below is awful (well three other films that are apparently good but I haven’t seen them), cant verify that but I don’t particular like his work so I won’t be paying to see his worst (worst list not going to happen just this post).

It’s a double review, not going to do this very often and I am only doing it for these two because they are made as a companion to each other. Both of these films show a very realistic portrayal of the battle of Iwo Jima and deserve great praise for acting and visuals when considering the relatively low budget of the two films. In saying that I find Letters from Iwo Jima better to watch and I also view it as a much better film in general.

It’s one of my amazing special posts, yay! (Nobody really cares, just look at the pretty pictures). Friday I will be posting a ‘Best of Christopher Nolan’ because of the Dark Knight Rises release.

Ok so we are now into the 7th month of the year so I thought I would put my favourite films of the year into monthly winners for the first half of 2012. Obviously part 2 won’t be coming out until January next year so keep an eye out for that when I will also reveal my winner of the year in genre categories (nobody really cares, just look at the pretty posters). Each winner is only put in a mini review but has been linked to the full reviews if you want to read more.

It’s an action film that’s good. Not a superhero film or Rambo 8 but a good original action film. The film fits into a small genre called ‘pure action’ in which it fits neatly. This film revels in the skill of its actors and convenient plot which puts good vs. evil crammed into one apartment building. There are very few foreign films I truly enjoy mainly due to strange plots or basically it’s a boring drama, glad to see some good fun films coming from Indonesian. Interestingly enough I think this the first film I have seen from Indonesia and it’s so good, keep them coming.

Surprisingly good, possible the best vampire film I have seen in a while. In saying that, there’s not much competition in the field of vampire films. Nether the less it’s still a very good piece of storytelling, which considering the subject of a president being a vampire hunter is really saying something. It’s an action packed Interview with a vampire, but you know with Abraham Lincoln.

Oh My God what the hell is that, arghghhhh it’s got me! Where’s my shot gun damn it! OH GOD NOT MY BRAIN… [Part 1]

Go into caves, tempt ghosts, open portals into other dimensions, go into any room with a 1408 number, go into a theme park when it’s a zombie apocalypse and drink crazy water![Part 2]

Feels like a high budget B movie, will help to mention that I like B movies. It’s more Sci-Fi than comedy but it does have its moments and it did make me laugh at times. If you want to watch a film with no brains but some very funny political jokes then this film is for you.

The film is exactly what you expect, if you like this type of film then sure it’s a good, fun and smartly created mystery action film. But if you don’t like this type of film (Sherlock Holmes (2009) for example) then you should give it a miss. I am the first person because I actually like this type, it’s just fun to watch and as long as I enjoy the experience there’s nothing else it really needs to do.

Think I may be crazy, because I actually really liked this film. The film deserved a better rap than it got and the films advertisement was terrible. The main reason I would say the film didn’t make much money was the advertisement because even I didn’t go see it at the cinema and that’s really saying something. A massive surprise to me! That’s some good Sci-Fi.
