The Crazies

The Crazies is a remake of the 1973 George Romero film. It’s about a small town where a plane crashes carrying a secret govt experiment, that when inhaled, makes the person go crazy and start killing everyone they come into contact with. The story circles around police officer David Hutton, as he and a few others try to escape the crazies and the military that were sent in to isolate the town.

For the most part the film was good. I didn’t think it was up to the expensiveness of a movie ticket, but will probably become a really popular rental.

It’s jammed packed with those, ‘out of nowhere’ moments.

Budget: $12 million
Director: Breck Eisner
Starring:
Timothy Olyphant
Radha Mitchell
Joe Anderson
Danielle Panabaker
Christie Lynn Smith

Sin City

Most people love this film when they see it, even if they didn’t quite understand what was going on all the time. The film itself, with the unique cinematography, lighting and action makes it a great film. What’s gonna make it even better is that Sin City 2 is scheduled for release next year, with Sin City 3 following the year after.

Most of this film was shot in front of a green screen, which gives credit to the actors, since most of the time, they were responding and acting to things that weren’t there.

The movie is loaded with action, hot women, and an all star cast.

Budget: $40 million
Director: Frank Miller
Starring:
Bruce Willis
Clive Owen
Brittany Murphy
