Gods of Egypt (2016)
Cheap and cheerful mythology hero movie
Fun movie, tongue in cheek lines. Not a classic by any means but everyone in it seemed to have fun. The story is very loosely based on Egyptian mythology. Cute love interests which lead to a predictable end do not ruin what is pure escapism fun. The main characters follow up on the characters they have portrayed in other films or series mainly Game of Thrones and 300. CGI although not cutting edge was OK. The "brainy" god was played with good humour and the sphinx was a bit "Monty Python" not that that's a complaint. Its not Shakespeare or Gladiator..its not even 300 but it was "take your brain out, open a bottle of wine and enjoy!" I would not want to see it at the cinema but as a cheap DVD or sky download its certainly not the worst I have seen!
Atlantis Down (2010)
one of the worst movies I ever watched
this film looks as if it was filmed on a particularly cheap and nasty "not so smart" phone. the story if it can be called that has no depth or explanation. As previously reported it seems to have been mainly a few people in overalls running around in a wood saying how much it looked like home but was so "different" in some unknown way. I do wonder if the guy left on the ship for the first part just realised how lame it all looked and refused to join in. I tortured myself by watching it to the end in the misguided belief some "reasonable" explanation to all the mindless drivel would be forthcoming. I was sorely misguided although when the movie finally just came to a sudden end I was actually quite grateful. I only paid £3 for this DVD but still feel robbed..I considered calling trading standards but feel to embarrassed too admit I actually "paid" for this!
