This movie is a mixed bag for me. I liked some parts, but on the other hand, it was too much of a CGI action fest.
When I had seen it for the first time, I was also a little disappointed, because I had very high expectations.
On the positive side, I think Henry Cavill did a very good job as Superman. His looks also reminded me very much of Tom Welling, who played Clark Kent in Smallville. I am curious about the sequel.

Midnight Express, a review by Rich

Keep out of trouble through Turkey...





Written by Oliver Stone, based on a true story, a harrowing story of a man thrown in to a Turkish jail after being caught smuggling a small amount of dope. Brad Davis and John Hurt are both convincing as they slowly go mad in this torturous prison, and some scenes are extremely brutal and difficult to watch. Enjoyed this flick, despite it slumping in the middle, and would recommend it as a bargain buy. 6/10

My Thoughts:
While better then the last episode... this is another one I never really cared too much for. Just a basic filler episode with a story that just didn't interest me too much.

My Rating:
