Alice in Wonderland, a review by addicted2comics



Alice in Wonderland (2010)

The Plot: Alice has once again fallen down the rabbit hole, and this time she has discovered the Red Queen has taken over Wonderland.....and she was the chosen champion.

My Thoughts: This is a very......unique movie. Everything in it made no sense with a fantasy outlook twisted with the sense of war against the Red Queen. That's what's cool about it! Some parts are confusing, but really enjoyable. And i have to say this....flutterwhacken!!!  :laugh: Haha, you'd get it if you saw the movie.

Looking at the down sides, although the movie is enjoyable, my head is still spinning from all the.....stuff.....I don't even know how to describe most of the things I saw! But I guess that's a day in the life of Wonderland! There were things I didn't expect to see:

The movie is just plain weird!!!!..........................but that's what I like! I'd recommend it, but yeah, considered yourself warned! :P Its a good 4 out of 5.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a review by Rich




Title: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Runtime:104
Certificate:12
Year:2005
Genres:Adventure, Comedy, Science-Fiction

Plot:Wonderfully wacky. Absurdly hysterical. Insanely irreverent. It's the laugh-out-loud intergalactic comedy THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY. Based on Douglas Adams' best-selling novel and filled with out-of-this world visual and special effects, this is one ride you don't want to miss. Seconds before Earth is destroyed by the nastiest creatures in the universe, mild-mannered Arthur Dent is whisked into space by his friend, an alien in human form. And so the misadventures begin as he and fellow travellers, including a two-headed Galactic President and a paranoid android, search for answers to the mystery of life, the universe and everything.

My Review:
At school HGTTG radio, tv and book was always the realm of geeky kids, (chess club participants who brought schoolwork in briefcases and were wedgied at lunchtime). I didn't like it then and this film reinforced the fact.
It was fairly well made and at times amusing, reasonable cast of actors and narrator who appeared happy to be part of this venture, but overall I found the humour adolescent and the script without context.
I understand even fanboys didn't like this adaptation, so we now do have something in common. Clearly another adaptation once again by Hollywood flopped.
My Rating

NCIS Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd


NCIS: Season 1: Disc 2

5. THE CURSE
When a Navy lieutenant's mummified remains are discovered almost ten years after he was reported missing along with one million dollars from his ship's safe, Gibbs and his team Investigate the death as well as the theft.

My Thoughts:
This was a really good episode. Leave it to Abby to bring up a curse of some sort over such a find. Once again... I have to say... I loved the way Gibbs bluffed his way through to get the confession they needed. Some of the things he comes up with is just too cool.

6. HIGH, SEAS
Two sailors from the same ship overdose on meth, despite their claims of never having touched the drugs.

My Thoughts:
Enjoyed the episode a lot... but is one of those ones that nothing really sticks out to be extraordinary.

7. SUB ROSA
Gibbs and Todd (Sasha Alexander) investigate the possibility of an impostor on board a nuclear submarine.

My Thoughts:
Another good episode. The body they found in this episode was less then appealing. This series does have a slight bit of a gore factor when it comes to the remains. I really liked how Gibbs took up for Kate when they were not going to let her on the sub... but was sure to do so without doing it in front of her.

8. MINIMUM SECURITY
A mysterious death leads Gibbs and the team into the heart of the terrorist detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

My Thoughts:
This episode is one that never really impressed me much. Nothing really bad about it... and really can't put my finger on what it was that bothered me... but definitely not one I look forward to watching during my marathons.
