Hi all. This is a bit of a double topic. First, an introduction. Names Esichs. No particular inspiration came for the name other then the fact that I had heard it from some where in high school [World History I think...]. With that overly simple introduction I wanna discuss a movie that I finally saw today.
Shoot em up. AND...Holy WTF!? This movie was horribly awesome, stupidly brilliant, and pathetically comical. Its like the writer took every thing over exaggerated and completely unrealistic some one could do in an action movie and did it.
If Brock Sampson and Boba Fett took there DNA, spliced the gametes, and artificially inserted it into a womb, this is what would be born nine months later.
In all honesty I can only describe this movie with one oxymoronic phrase "wretchedly beautiful" |

welcome, I haven't seen it, but I wanted to. All the reviews I have looked at said that it was good, but I haven't had the time.

It actualy was a good movie. But parts of it were so freaking insane you had no choice but to go "OMFG that was stupid"
Most of the scenes involving carrots were like that... |

| the reviews list it as non stop action. They aren't kidding. The calm between action scenes lasts maybe only about three minutes at most. From the opening to the ending, its non stop action. |
