Date Movie



I participated in watching this film, the night of last. Um, seriously... It was made by the same creators of such films as the scary moivie's, from one through to seven hundred or whatever they are up to now. There were SOME funny bits, but I would like to stress only SOME. Some being the most important word in that sentance. I think I can count how many funny bits there were on one hand...that hand being a ninja turtle hand...three fingers. Therefore, threee funny bits.

Date Movie generally fuels its "comedic genious" from the overused rip-off television-type sketches. The creators play off all of those lame "chick-flicks" (as they are known) to try and pull together some kind of coherent storyline, while also attempting comedy. I feel as if they failed.

If I would have to rate this movie 3 out of 10.

The Great Train Robbery

1903...I was -117 years of age. This is a very old film, and decent I suppose as it was a pioneer in the filming industry. The story goes that four men rob a train, escape then get killed. I hope I didnt ruin anything for you, but too bad. Each shot in the movie was fairly stationary except for one pan. The movie didnt get me sucked in as such, as I suppose it wasnt meant to. It was more like watching a theatre play, but with some outdoor shots. The movie in general wasnt too boring, but did quite well seeing as the film makers hadnt done much of this before.

I rate it 7/10.
