Bigfoot (2012)
Absolutely terrible
This is probably one of the worst pieces of television I have watched in a long time.
The CGI is appalling, the physics of how the Bigfoot moves is comical and borders on stop motion quality.
The so called "concert" has no more than 30 people in the crowd, and this is obvious from the camera shots, yet the dubbed sound suggests there are thousands in attendance. The stage looked like it was constructed by drunk children as well. And to think Alice Cooper made an appearance in this is just sad.
The acting is ropey at best, the characters are unbelievable, The so called "master hunter" cannot even hold a rifle correctly.
To summarise, THIS IS GARBAGE and should never have been made. Waste of time for all involved.
The Astronaut Farmer (2006)
A very good film
This is one of those films that you don't hear much about and probably won't see unless someone else tells you about it, which is unfortunate because this film deserves more credit that its been given.
The basic storyline about a man who builds his own rocket is probably something each and every one of us has either thought about or dreamt of whilst growing up. The difference here is that this film tries to connect that story into modern day life with everyday values - it's not a fantasy film and its not an action film.
Having said that, I think most people who watch this will stay to the end because the story jumps right in at the beginning, unlike some other films which have terribly long run-ins and character development that can bore you before the "good stuff".
When Farmer crashes his rocket and almost kills himself I genuinely thought that this would be the outcome of the film but the real ending was one of those feel-good moments that make this film so worth watching.
In short, an easy going film suitable for all ages that will make you laugh, cry and ultimately leave you with a sense of achievement in your heart for Charles Farmer.
Enjoy.
