Forrest H's Reviews

Was surprised that it was actually pretty good. Good acting, good story, good effects. Must see for a sci-fi fan. Only bad part is you only get to see the alien for maybe 45 seconds the whole movie. The title 'Alien Hunter' has nothing to do with the movie. It's not about an Alien Hunter or Hunting Aliens. It's more of a containment movie. Watch it and you'll know why.

This was total crap!!!!! Could have been so much better if they just put a little effort into it!!! Such a shame.

I screen all the animated movies before I let my kids watch. This is one that I probably won't let them watch, not till they're a bit older. Just too much fighting going on between the wolf packs. Too many 'mating' & 'reproducing' innuendo's. The animation wasn't very good, either. Looked more like a cheap computer game than a movie. As an adult, I did like it but don't think it's suitable for younger kids. The story itself was good. There were some funny parts and lines. The greatest part for me was Dennis Hopper as a supporting voice!

I don't know what the previous reviewers had to say about this movie, but it was AWESOME! Modern day Twilight Zone! VERY original story. Good acting from the young cast. Suspense filled movie. Whoever had this idea in their head for a movie was brilliant. I've never would have imagined a movie about an "Atmospheric Beast" Must Watch.

This is a SyFy Presents Feature so expect the typical SyFy Channel story, acting and costumes. The acting was better than expected. Jason London at his norm. Watch if you like cheap SyFy.

Well, we'll start here. IF you have never seen the original 1982 film, The Beastmaster starring Marc Singer, you'll probably enjoy this somewhat. IF you are a fan of the original, than you will hate this series. I'm a fan of the original. I lost interest within the first handful of episodes. The writers have changed so much concerning Dar. How he got his powers, his family, his origin. So much was changed and there was no reason to do so. Daniel Goddard, who plays Dar, does do a great job. He's taken this role and has put a lot into it. Not just acting, but staying in shape and training. Most of the supporting cast is annoying and most of the stories are silly. However, the special/visual effects are great for the time that this series was made. Not sure how it made it for 3 seasons. If this was on today's television, it wouldn't make it past the first season.

Theo Gold, the New Orleans Assistant District Attorney, is about to have the worst day of His life. Not only does his wife decide to leave him on the eve of his birthday, but he manages to lose a high-profile case against Harry Blades (WWE Superstar Edge), an eccentric yet hardnosed Detective on trial for corruption. Now, the only thing Theo has left is the car his father entrusted to him - a 1956 Studebaker Goldenhawk. But when he discovers his father's `pride and joy' has been stolen, Theo is ironically discovers that the only ally he has within the police department is the same person he tried to put away. As the two set-off to find the car, action and comedy quickly develop when they come to realize that the stolen `Hawk' was merely a small piece of a much larger puzzle.

This is a Russian movie and is in the Russian Language. You can select to have it dubbed in English or with English subs if you want. Still a fun movie. Good visuals. I liked it a lot! Pleasantly surprised!!!

Wishful thinking, I know, but I just wish they'd make another Riddick movie. These were done great. One of the only movies that I can watch over and over again. Great!
Review Date: 7/23/2010

For the money, this is a great set. Some old Hercules movies I enjoyed a lot. The transfer to DVD is ruff. Sound is a bit ruff on some, sounds like a projector running. On some, the voices don't match up to the lip movements. But hey, I didn't expect too much from this set. I was entertained with it. Acting was pretty good, also.

The Rock's best performance!!! LOL. It was a really great horror/action/sci-fi. I actually watch it quite often.

One of the best Killer Clown movies I've ever seen. Good blood and good story!

The absolute greatest sci-fi movie of all time. Great imagination to fantastic visual effects and make-up/costumes. Just fantastic. If you haven't seen it you must watch it.

A trilogy of 3 Montreal women, 1 Chinese, 1 Greek and 1 Latino, forced to challenge their past, confront their present and answer the call of the FOREIGN GHOSTS.

3 women, 3 cultures, 3 tales of Montreal.

FOREIGN GHOSTS captures the desire, pride, fear, hope and the absolute confusion of immigrants.

Tale #1 finds May Li torn between her French boyfriend and her new arrived mother, who calls all non-Chinese "ghosts".

Tale #2 is the ballad of Anna, a businesswoman of the 90s tries to hide her Greek origin with/without a little help from fellow associate Pepe.

Tale #3 is the poetry of a waitress in a donut shop. Tanya, a waitress from Dominican Republic, sexually and mentally challenges three donut shop intellects...

Dolph is the best thing to happen to this movie and at the same time this movie is the worst thing to happen to Dolph. Far too much "Old English" dialogue. Felt like I was watching a really bad high school play. Then again, this is a Uwe Boll film so I was expecting the worst. It did have a good looking dragon in it, though. If Dolph wanted to do a fantasy, there's better ones out there he could have done. The first one was bad, this one is much horrific to sit through. Needed more action and what action there was wasn't bad, just didn't enjoy any of it.

Must have for any Indy fan.

This has a lot of good laughs in it. The Big Show is a natural comic. Plays a big goof who needs to save the day! Family friendly. Good show for the kids who like wrestling.

Shortly after Eddie (Mark Feuerstein) loses his new fighter and finds himself $50,000 in debt to longtime nemesis and bookie Memphis Earl (Dennis Farina), he discovers Walter (Big Show), a bumbling 7-foot, 440-pound, life-long resident of the orphanage-turned-handyman with his own debt problems: The kitchen fire Walter caused will close down the church's orphanage in a week unless he comes up with $50,000. Upon overhearing Walter's predicament, Eddie convinces the no-nonsense head nun, Sister Francesca that Walter can win the $100,000 grand prize at the tournament to pay off the church's debts. But in order to do so, he will need to take Walter on the road, enter amateur fights along the way, and teach him how to become a real fighter. Sister Francesca dispatches Mary (Melora Hardin) as a chaperone for both Walter and the money and gives Eddie a week and a prayer to make it happen.

I can't believe I've never heard of this movie before coming to this site! Fantastic family movie. Above par visual effects. Good story good guy versus the bad company men! Your kids will like it!
Review Date: 2/14/2011

Total crap! Done in the same manner as Cloverfield, but just so bad!!!! The camera jerks, cuts out, static, green, snow, you name it the camera does it! Gave me a headache from watching so I shut it off. Very bad movie, very poor visual effects. The two girls in the movie did a good job of acting, but Asylum needs to just give up on their junk movies! Pass on this one. You don't even get to see the Monster! What a joke!
Review Date: 11/6/2010

This movie is so funny! Nathan Jones (former pro-wrestler 7ft tall) pulls off being a funny man famously! Great story about a big softy trying to help out two kids and their mother! Fantastic fight scenes with this young Muay Thai girl fighter! Lots of action and lots of laughs. Wonderfully done! MUST see! (most of it is in subtitles, but still fantastic).

Nothing will ever beat the original, and this didn't even beat the second movie. I was really hoping this would be an origin movie but wishful thinking. I'm a huge Predator fan with all the movies and novels. This was just another hunt with a different twist. What I did like about the movie was the black predator (the bigger one) and the hounds and that it was on a different planet. NOT enough action. NOT enough story. Just NOT enough. Really wish they would do an origin but that'll never happen.
Review Date: 10/24/2010

In my opinion, a lot better than the first one with Jane as The Punisher. A lot more gore and violence.
Review Date: 7/25/2010

Predictable! They gave it away within 15 minutes. I don't know why directors/writers do that. At least wait till the end to spoil it. NOT a lot of action, so if you're expecting action this isn't for you. Mostly fight scenes and Angelina on a wire. It was okay and worth a watch. Trust me, once you start watching it, you'll know what she's up to.

Ok, this is only for the DIE HARD Scooby collectors. This only contains Scooby Doo & Shaggy and they are only in it for maybe 5 minutes. Shaggy is dressed in drag for half of that!!! Just has Shaggy telling a couple stories about Aladdin & Sinbad and that's it. He doesn't even narrate it. Just Hanna Barbara cashing in on the Scooby name. Your child will be disappointed if he's expecting a normal Scooby Adventure. I'm a collector, and this one is the least of my worries. If I don't get it, oh well. (I rented it the other day)
Review Date: 8/22/2010

This is one of our favorite Scooby movies. Keeps you guessing!
Review Date: 8/14/2010

This will keep your kids entertained for an hour and a half. It was okay. The animation is that of the 70's/80's style. This has pretty much all of the Hanna/Barbara characters in it competing in various sports.
Review Date: 8/14/2010

This was really great! Good cop versus the corrupt drug lord. Great motorcycle chase scene. Lots of gun shots! Good movie!
Review Date: 1/8/2011

I wasn't sure if I saw this when I was a kid or not. I now know that I did NOT see it because my mother would never have allowed me too. For the first half of the movie, Tanya Roberts is nude! Do NOT let your young sons watch this, it's more or less soft porn for the first part. BUT, the animals are amazing. How someone didn't get hurt is beyond me. Lions right up in the actors face! WOW. Zebras and psycho attacking flamingo's! Could have been better with a better actress than Roberts. I think they were hoping the nudity would make up for the lack of acting abilities! Good for an intentional bad movie night!

I never started watching stargate until SGU came out and then I was hooked. I ordered all 10 seasons and all the follow-up movies as well and watched them all. It is and will forever be, in my opinion, the greatest sci-fi series of all time. AMAZING! Thankfully, they came out with Atlantis and SGU and hopefully more to come. Love it.

This movie spawned three successful spin-off series. Of course this is a fantastic sci-fi/adventure story. Great story. Good characters. Very good for any sci-fi fan. Must see.

Great Sci-Fi. Good creature effects. Well worth a watch.

London is in chaos after a military cargo plane crashes, leaving its highly classified contents strewn across the city. Completely unaware that London is on lock-down, exes Charlie and Shelley, accompanied by best friends Mark and Nikki, are trapped in the Storage 24 facility - a dark maze of endless corridors - with a mysterious predator hunting them one by one.

This is NOT a remake. This IS a prequel. Very well done. We loved it and can watch it over and over.
Review Date: 5/28/2012

Great movie. Was pleasantly surprised. Great acting. It's a zombie movie, but the way the story is told is what made me give this 5 stars. The music was fitting as well. I didn't want to blink because I didn't want to miss anything. Gotta at least see it once.
Review Date: 1/14/2011

Scooby Doo is awesome, no doubt. All these episodes are great. BUT, I see absolutely no point in owning who knows how many dvd's with only 4 episodes on each DVD, when you can go and get all three seasons on 6 disks with ALL the episodes. You can get them on Amazon or Walmart or here when they're available. Go for the gold and get the whole seasons. Save yourself some space on your shelf.

This would make a great movie for a young boy who loves anything to do with space. Good flick!
Review Date: 7/25/2010

Don't expect much on the acting side but man did this deliver for make-up and special effects for a low budget horror. You MUST watch this just for the ping-pong and pool ball shooting towards the end!!!!!! You'll know what I'm talking about when you see it and you'll love it!! What could strippers possibly do with a ping-pong ball?? :-)
