| Netflix Review: Cutthroat Island Posted: 23 Sep 2012 02:15 PM PDT   Cutthroat Island Netflix Streaming DVD | Blu-ray Directed by Renny Harlin Starring Geena Davis, Matthew Modine, Frank Langella, Maury Chaykin Carolco and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Originally Released: December 22, 1995 Being the week upon which Talk Like A Pirate Day falls, I opted to look at a pirate flick for this week's Netflix Review. So, grab your cutlass, affix your patch and wooden legs – we're headed for Cutthroat Island. Directed by Renny Harlin, Cutthroat Island is a movie that was made too early for its time, cursed by the financial woes from a dying studio. But despite its weaknesses, the movie does capture the fun element most remembered in some of the old Errol Flynn classics, and has matured into a movie that audiences can enjoy without taking it too seriously. The plot follows a notorious wanted female pirate named Morgan Adams (Geena Davis) who finds a treasure map tattooed on the scalp of her dead father. The map is one third of the full piece, with one in the hands of Adams' uncle, and another in the grubby evil mitts of antagonist Dawg Brown (Frank Langella). Taking command of her father's ship and crew, and taking doctor and linguist William Shaw (Matthew Modine) on board, she leads a crusade to find the treasure of Cutthroat Island. It develops into a race against time as Brown chases Adams down, across the treacherous waters of the Caribbean [...]      |

| DVD Review: Marvel Anime: Iron Man – Complete Series Posted: 23 Sep 2012 10:29 AM PDT  Marvel Anime: Iron Man - Complete Series DVD Directed by Yuzo Sato Written by Warren Ellis Marvel Entertainment/Sony Pictures Release Date: April 24, 2012 Okay, a little honesty here. I thought I had written this like eight weeks ago, but when I went to go link to it, I realized that it must have been one of the reviews I had on my tablet when my it died. So here is my very late review of this two-disc Marvel Anime: Iron Man - Complete Series. It was quite different from other Iron Man cartoons I have seen in the past. The series itself is very typical of Japanese anime. If you are a fan of this style, then you know what I mean when I say it is very much eye candy. The characters are very animated (no pun intended), almost to the point of ridiculousness at times, actually. But again, this is common for anime. Not that I hate it or anything, but I don't really like the style. I grew up watching Starblazers and G-Force, so the amalgamated stylings of "Japanimation" are not unknown to me. There just seems to be a certain slickness to it that sets modern anime apart from other cartoon styles [...]      |
