Margin Call (2011)
1/10
Possibly the worst movie I've ever seen
10 April 2018
I hardly ever review movies on IMDB, less than a handful in my life. But after having wasted the time watching this movie I feel compelled to warn others what an absolutely worthless movie this is.

It's one of those movies, where I waited the entire movie for it to START, but then the credits were rolling up the screen and I was left jaw dropped like WTF.

The whole movie is predictable, nothing happens the whole way through the movie.

If you've even read one article about the GFC you can imagine the entire content of this movie more vividly than this movie portrays it.

It's really paint drying on the wall.

Appalling movie, not worth watching even for Avatar L.A.B. fans. Watch the series!

Absolutely the worst movie (after the story) I've ever seen. The bending is so crap and movements overdone with hardly any bending going on. The CGI is almost non-existent. The characters are so terrible. The characters and story could not get any flatter or shallow. There is basically no goodness in the movie. Not even 1% of the original series. They had the ethnicity of the characters all wrong. The water tribe are supposed to be olive skinned, but instead they cast a couple of lame white kids. The fire nation are supposed to be white, but typical of racist film making because they are "the bad guys" got cast as dark skinned Arabs. LOL

Dirty Sexy Money (2007–2009)
10/10
Bring the show back!
4 May 2010
My whole family is addicted to this show.

We can't wait to see more. Keep it going! Everyone loves it. I think the reason the network has put the show on hold permanently is because it does not have strong hooks like prison break and other junk shows. This show is actually thoroughly enjoyable to watch, there is a strong plot, but the episodes don't usually end with a massive twist that leaves you dying to know what happened. Its just that you enjoy every minute of the show, and want more :) The characters are awesome. Brian is my favourite. Hes such an asshole :) Caren is cool as well, quite hot, and Lisa, whoa. Jeremy is also quite entertaining. All the other members fulfil important roles as well. One great thing about the show is there are always many many subplots going on and you're constantly rewarded with finding out more about each sub-plot. Its an awesome show. I'm going to miss life with the Darlings...

District 9 (2009)
10/10
One of the best movies I've ever seen
3 September 2009
I watch a lot of movies and I really enjoy a good movie, but I'm quite critical of lame predictable, boring typical Hollywood plots etc. So I'm known to be a lot harsher on movies than my friends.

I've only ever given one other movie a 10/10, and that is Samsara (very diff genre), there might be others but I'm just including that to show that in hundreds or thousands of movies, I've given a 10/10 probably twice.

The movie is just brilliant, perfect. There was not one part which was badly made, or they could have done better. Its a masterpiece. Its extremely original, the characters are brilliant, the aliens are brilliant. The CGI is thrilling and brilliant. I'm really amazed. This movie is not just money thrown at crap like most big budget action movies.

If there is a sequel, I really hope they have a plot as solid as this before they make it. Sequels are generally a disgrace to the original.

I'm also really impressed with this as a South African movie. So far SA movies have been at best decent or semi-decent. 4-6 out of 10. I really hope its a catalyst for the SA film industry. I'm sick of seeing the big Hollywood actors playing lame characters in predictable roles and overused themes.

Forget everything you've read, expect nothing, then go see it.
