Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, a review by addicted2dvd

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
STEVEN SPIELBERG and GEORGE LUCAS bring you the greatest adventurer of all time in "a nonstop thrill ride" (Richard Corliss, TIME) that's packed with "sensational, awe-inspiring spectacles" (Roger Ebert, CHICAGO SUN-TIMES). Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull finds Indy (Harrison Ford) trying to outrace a brilliant and beautiful agent (Cate Blanchett) for the mystical, all-powerful crystal skull of Akator. Teaming up with a rebellious young biker (Shia LaBeouf) and his spirited original love Marion (Karen Allen), Indy takes you on an action-packed adventure in the exciting tradition of the classic Indiana Jones movies!

My Thoughts:
I just received this movie as an early birthday present.... and couldn't wait to put it in! I been wanting to see this movie since I first heard rumors of it being made. After watching it... all I can think of saying is WOW! I loved every minute of it. This movie is just pure fun... in a way that only can be done by Harrison Ford in an Indy movie. Sure... the majority of this one was over the top and completely unbelievable. but that is all part of the enjoyment of this movie. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade has always been my favorite Indy movie... but I think that just got replaced with this one!

Opening credit

Right after the opening we see Bobby (White) mowing the grass while his half-sister relax at the pool. He ends his work and go to his room, but his half-sister follow him, tease him and tell him that his stepfather want to see him. He go and his stepfather doesn't like how he has done is job at all.


Hit me with your best shot

Later everyone ate his supper and like nobody is angry, Bobby's half-sister make some reference not so subtle to her father about Bobby's drug.


Happy together

His father force him to go search it. But Bobby realize that his familly is not so great after all and he left.

If you leave

After some wandering in the night Bobby decide to stop at a bar and he's get noticed  by a costumer (an old man who flirt with him). Not knowing how to react (Bobby isn't really brilliant), but a biker save him and they make the party together.


Dont talk to stranger

They go to the biker home and they share a beer, so all Bobby's problem are over... Not really, since the biker call his three friends (one of them look like Tom Savini, but I don't think it's him) and they all go for a funny car ride. Except for Bobby, since they rape him (don't worry it's not graphic, it's  almost funny). After that they dump him the ditch.


Whatcha do to my body

From there it's better for Bobby. A satanic sect take charge of him and while he recover the satanist does their usual thing : praying Lucifer, make some human sacrifice, ...


Come to the sabbath

Do you really think that all will be going good for Bobby? The real master was gone but now his back and he is not happy. Like he said : Bobby his weak because he was rape, he is an homosexual because of that and the Devil doesn't like these peoples (this is not what I hear usually, but I'm not a satanist).


Somebody's Watching Me

Bobby escape and for 20 minutes we will see him running in the wood only in is underwear.

This is especially for the lady

He will escape and get his revenge on his familly and the rapist. The way he deal with that will make Simon happy and he will became a member of the sect.


Heroes

First thing first this movie shout anti-homosexual agenda (the devil don't like them, they are weak, they are victims,...), but for almost half the movie Bobby is in underwear running or just showing off. So colour me confuse, who is the public of this???

The acting is weak to be polite, no one had did something before or after that (except for Stephen White who have made 2 other films). I like this film, he is so bad and awfull that you laugh almost from the beginning to the end.

Because of this movie everytime I think that I've a bad day, I say to myself : It could be worse think at Bobby's day. After I feel better
 
Rating :

P.S : All the image title have one thing in common, do you see it?

My PILOT Marathon, a review by Rich

Title: Sledge Hammer!: Season One

Certificate:NR
Year:1986


Plot:In the fall of 1986, an unsuspecting TV nation met a new kind of comedy hero who made Rambo look like Pee Wee Herman. David Rasche starred as the trigger-happy lawman whose hatred of criminal scum and yogurt eatin' creeps was matched only by his love of excessive force and a .44 Magnum. Over the next two seasons, this hilariously deranged lampoon of DIRTY HARRY and plenty of other targets became one of the most notorious series in television history and launched a rabid cult of fans that grows to this day. This is SLEDGE HAMMER!

The complete first season of SLEDGE HAMMER! is now newly re-mastered (including removal of the laugh track) and loaded with an arsenal of exclusive extras that features uncensored footage, all-new interviews with stars David Rasche, Harrison Page and Anne-Marie Martin, audio commentaries and more, all given the "Hammer" seal of approval by Series Creator & Executive Producer Alan Spencer.

Episode List:
1. Under the Gun (Pilot)

My Review:
Great series that begins with this pilot as it meant to carry on, slapstick and stupid, Naked Gun meets Dirty Harry.
The pilot deals with the introduction of Sledge and the gorgeous Dori Doreau, and despite being over 20 years old it feels current in its style and laughter inducers. It takes the piss out of many cop shows, and in Sledge you get a comical hero that you have to love.
Belly laughed all the way through this opener, and it took me back to when we used to view this series on ITV late on Friday nights  after the pub.
