Worst Movie Ever

First off, I don't make it a habit to write movie reviews, good or bad, but for this movie I've made an exception. The Last Hour was just terrible, and not just in the usual sense that the acting stinks, writing stinks, or that the plot/story is terrible, but that it is also terribly produced and edited. Seriously, it looks like a high school student-film that happened to get DMX to star in it. Now, I like DMX, in fact, he was the reason I wanted to see this. He was awesome in Belly, Decent in Cradle to the Grave and Exit Wounds, but not even he could save this trainwreck of a film. Why David Carradine agreed to be in this, I'll never know, and Michael Madsen, well, he's a B-movie star these days anyway, so it won't hurt his lack of a career.

So really, if you want to see this movie just be prepared that it is like nothing you've seen before. They should show this movie at film-schools throughout the world him hopes that future directors will not allow such atrocities to occur again.

I'd give it a negative star if I could. June 24, 2008

Chinese puzzle box movie

And Then There Were None is the kind of story this reminds me of.
We have a group of what appears to be second generation bad guys
who find their way to the house of their fathers:
a gang of very successful thieves.
The question with the house surrounded by the police is who is going to find the way out promised in the letters?
These people are all very good at their particular brands of evil.
One by one they die... May 2, 2008
