Film 257/365, Day 281/365 – Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever

A pointless story with one or two decent action sequences.  The only point worth watching in this film is when Lucy Liu is being followed and then in turns kicks a lot of ass.  The rest of the film is a complete and utter waste of time.  The story is appalling, the acting not much better and it failed to hold my full attention for 92 minutes which isn’t too much to ask for is it?

Synopsis:  Eck, a grieving FBI agent, is brought back into service to bring down a rogue DIA agent.  But not all is as it seems.

Film 203/365, Day 216/365 – Mortal Kombat

Expect fight after fight; expect no complex story lines, just plenty of fights to an awesome dance music soundtrack from beginning to end.  The effects aren’t anything to get excited about.  Christopher Lambert however is pretty funny and there are lots of fights.  Finish him!

Synopsis:  Based on the best selling video game, Mortal Kombat, the best fighters of Earth are selected to defend the realm in a contest called Mortal Kombat where they will be required to fight to the death against the best fighters from the Outworlders.  Under the guidance of Raiden, the lightning God, Lui Kang, Johnny Cage and Sonia Blade are our best hope of survival.
