Film 312/365, Day 334/365 – G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra

Some action but very little story.  This film is so desperate to be Star Wars that I almost started to feel sorry for it.  It is also a feature length advert with all of the main characters with their action figure names and flash vehicles and armour, shameless.  Some of the accents are beyond ridiculous, especially the British ones!

Synopsis:  A convoy carrying a dangerous weapon is attacked by a mysterious military team and whilst they are unsuccessful in stealing the weapon it’s just the start of things.  Soon the secret military G.I. Joe will be going head to head with the mysterious Cobra terrorists.

Film 126/365, Day 136/365 – Scary Movie

Waaaasssssuuuup!!!  Scary Movie takes the piss out of most of the big films of the 1990’s and the horror movie genre en mass.  Whilst some of it is very funny, some of it is not so.  The best moment is their take on the Budweiser adverts, and don’t forget to keep an eye out for Miss Man, makes me shudder just thinking about it.  Funny, but not a patch on the ultimate spoof films, Naked Gun and Airplane.

Synopsis:  A careless accident results in a group of friends dumping a body into the sea.  They promise never to tell anyone about what they have done.  One year later and a crazed costumed killer is stalking them because he know’s what they did last Halloween!  Will any of them live to tell the tale?
