Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths , a review by Dragonfire


Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths

My Thoughts

This one deals with one of the many alternate Earths that DC has created.  I don't know a lot about all that other than that the characters on the other worlds are at least somewhat different.  This movie deals with a version of Earth that is pretty much an opposite from the world where the Justice League is.  Lex Luthor is good and the alternate versions of the superheroes re villains that are part of a crime organization.  I think the story is interesting, though the plot could have been fleshed out a bit more.  There is more attention given to the numerous fights.  The fights don't blend together as much as the ones in Superman/Batman: Public Enemies did.  Even with all the fighting, the violence didn't seem as strong as it has been in some of the other DC animated movies.

There are a lot of characters in the movie, and most of them aren't developed that much.  Owlman and Superwoman receive the most attention and they are interesting characters.  The voice cast all does well with the voices of the characters.  The animation is done well.  Things - including characters - do have a slightly different look. 

The movie has been released on DVD and Blu-ray.  There is a first look at the next DC animated movie, Batman Under the Red Hood which looks interesting.  There are also looks at some of the previous DC animated movies.  There is a featurette on the second disc that I haven't taken the time to watch yet.

I enjoyed this movie and think it is worth watching for people who like superhero movies.  People who have enjoyed the previous DC animated movies should give this one a chance.

I would have rated this one 3.5 stars at Epinions if I had the option.  Since I didn't, I decided to round up to 4.



I did post a review on Epinions.

Milk, a review by Eric


Milk


Overview:My Thoughts:   All I knew about this man is the very litle I've seen and heard in trailers and critics when the movie got all its nominations for the Oscars.  I had never heard of Harvey Milk before.  I've always enjoyed well made movies that allow me to learn about true events and this one was no disappointment. "Milk" runs for over two hours but I didn't feel it long at any time.  The story great, the movie is great and Penn is just extraordinary.................fuck is he good actor.

My Score:

NCIS Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd


NCIS: Season 4: Disc 4

13. SHARIF RETURNS
Gibbs and the NCIS team scramble to locate 10 kilograms of highly toxic chemical weapons only to discover that they're in the possession of wanted terrorist Mamoun Sharif.

My Thoughts:
This is a good episode. Along with Sharif, Colonel Mann is back. This episode keeps your attention throughout the entire episode. Entertaining from beginning to the end.

My Rating:

14. BLOWBACK
Ducky goes undercover as a buyer of illegal weapons. Jenny appears to have a personal vendetta against the arms dealer known as "La Grenouille."

My Thoughts:
This one is pretty good... but not a favorite. I really found it to be more on the slow side then anything else.

My Rating:

15. FRIENDS & LOVERS
The NCIS team believes that a sailor found in an abandoned building was the victim of a drug overdose until they discover an ominous message written in blood.

My Thoughts:
This is a good... but a pretty standard episode. Pretty much a filler episode. Though I do like how they used McGee's new found fame to help them with a case. And the storyline of Tony's girlfriend moves along further as well.

My Rating:

16. DEAD MAN WALKING
A Navy lieutenant, the victim of radiation poisoning, wants the NCIS team to solve a murder - his own.

My Thoughts:
This episode is very good... Even after seeing this episode 4 times before... I still found myself glued to the TV watching this one. It is one of my favorites. It shows a softer side of Ziva.

My Rating:
