Movie Reivew: Beauty and the Beast (2010) Fantasy R

"Beauty and the Beast"

2010

Director: David Lister

Writer: Gavin Scott

RATING: 4/10

THESIS:

   A dark twist on the morality tale of forbidden love between beautiful Belle and the feared forest Beast. As villagers are being brutally murdered and the Beast is hunted down as the one responsible for the mayhem, Belle and Beast team up to defeat the real killer the power-hungry witch's malevolent troll.

MY THOUGHTS:

  Lets get down to the point.. This movie has a really good story plot but that was the only thing that was good about it. Between the loooooooooooooooonnng drawn out scenes, bad acting and stage setup.. It was horrible. Thinking this movie was going to be awesome like the other remakes (Snow White and the Huntsmen, The Great and Powerful Oz, etc). But ohhhh no.. It was nothing like that...  The gore scenes of the characters were pretty good makeup but all through this movie, I was like... "Oh my goodness.. When is this movie going to end." The writers and directors could've of made this movie a big hit if they had it set up.. I would not recommend anyone seeing this movie.. It reminded me something that a College Student would use as his or her's Freshmen year movie project. Ya know.. The ones who knew nothing about directing or acting and are just starting to learn the ropes. . :/ That bad..... There were only a few good parts to the movie but that was about it.

THE CALLER

2011

-Horror/Thriller-

Director: Matthew Parkhill

Writer: Sergio Casci

RATING: 8/10

THESIS: 

   Troubled divorcee Mary Kee is tormented by a series of sinister phone calls from a mysterious woman. When the stranger reveals she's calling from the past, Mary tries to break off contact. But the caller doesn't like being ignored, and looks for revenge in a unique and terrifying way.

MY THOUGHTS:

   Well. This movie I personally think turned out very well and had a "Payback is Bi*ch" ending. Struggling through her divorce from her crazy and abusive husband, Mary tries to move on with her life. But when a woman mystiously calls her home phone seeking a "friend", things turns towards the creepy side. This woman from the "Past" realizes she can change future by changing things in Mary's home or on Mary herself. During her (Mary) fight for life and sanity, she tries to find a way out from this strange caller's madness. Throughout this movie, there was a lot of suspense, drama, and some parts, sexual content. There is hardly any gory scenes in this move. The reason why I gave it a 8/10 rating is because, there was a couple of scenes where I was like. "what?" or "Wait.. What happened?" But overall, this was a pretty good movie. Wait until you see the phone that is used in the apartment,  it made me feel old.. hahaha.

THE WARD (2010)

--Horror--

Director: John Carpenter

Writers: Michael Rasmussen and Shawn Rasmussen

Rating: 7/10

Thesis:
A thriller centered on an institutionalized young woman who becomes terrorized by a ghost.

My Thoughts:

    The show started out with a little bit of excitement in the beginning but it remained pretty steady throughout the whole movie. There were times where it seemed to be drawn out a bit but the suspense was really good. The ending and outcome seemed kinda ehhh but it was still a pretty good movie..
