The Franco Doubleheader.


Spring Breakers

I was hoping for a deeper film with this one. Yeah, I know, what?!

I wasn't surprised it really was just a film about girls in bikinis doing stupid things and a rapper playing the same role every non acting rapper plays in films.

Not to say I wasn't intrigued as the film went on, it just mostly felt like a blur of scenes capitalized by an ending sequence that might just make you give up entirely on the plot - as in it's unbelievably impossible.

Not necessarily a bad film, it's just not a good one either.


Oz the Great and Powerful

This film completely surprised me and makes me want to dive deeper into the Oz catalog.

I really enjoyed it and thought it was well-written and carried a working plot. The acting wasn't very good as most of the actors seemed to just phone it in knowing they will never get acting noms for this thing.

As an original story (my understanding is it was original...I could be wrong), I think it carried a lot of the charm of Oz.

James Franco might have very distinctive facial expressions that make him seem like the same character all the time, but I think he played this one very different from the rest. The only good performance with exception to the Tinker.

Everyone else was typical and overplayed.

However, I recommend this one though it seems my opinion isn't shared by critics or viewers.

Back to the Future trilogy - I enjoyed these, but I liked the first one the most.
The Wolverine - This was a fun movie and the scene at the end of the credits surprised me.

Thanks again for the encouragement.

I thought it was fine to link to your site as long as you weren't selling anything.

The Black Hole
I don't think this one holds up too well. Some say it was a Star Wars cash-in,others 2001,those do hold up. This one not so much. More than that it's pretty much Heart of Darkness...in space...with robots and nowhere near as good as other things that have used that as a source. So it's not even original.

Don't Go Near the Park
Unlike other Don't Go [insertthinghere] movies this one takes more of a silly fantasy slant than horror. Wasn't very good. Notable for an early Linnea Quigley role who is much more famous for Night of the Living Dead and Nightmare on Elm Street 4.

"Fletch"

Vintage Chevy Chase. I thought he was better in these movies, especially Fletch 1 than the Vacation series. He just had those sometimes quirky, often smug, based comebacks that I would guess he helped write at the time. The scene with the proctologist (M. Emmett Walsh who is one of my favorite supporting actors of all time) remains a classic.

"Moon River"

Fletch is one of my all-time favorite comedy films. Chevy was probably at his peak, comedically, in that time period.
