Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City Film SPOILER FREE!!!!!!!!!! Review



Film fans and horror film fans alike there has been this very recent trend of making actually good video game movies with both Sonic The Hedgehog and Pokemon: Detective Pikachu being actually good films. So when it was firs announced that we would be getting a new American produced live action Resident Evil film of course I was excited to see it I mean with two actually good live action video games movies being released back to back how could I not excited for this film and well the film is now finally with us and so join me as I give you my SPOILER FREE review of the film that we really didn't need or even actually want for that matter with the film in question being called simply just "Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City" enjoy.

The plot of this film is a group of survivors have to survive the zombie apocalypse in the small town of Racoon City all the while trying to uncover the secrets that have been left behind by the evil Umbrella Corporation. Now then in terms of what I personally personally thought / felt about the actual plot of this actual film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot of this actual film was at best OK which is a shame because this film had a lot of promise to tell an actually good story but instead all it does is tell the same old story that we've being told in thousands of actually good zombie films and zombie TV shows in my opinions anyways / at least.



Starring in this film is Kaya Scodelario as Claire Redfield , Hannah John-Kamen as Jill Valentine and Robbie Amell as Chris Redfield. Also starring in this film is Tom Hopper as Albert Wesker , Avan Jogia as Leon S. Kennedy , Donal Logue as Chief Brian Irons , Neal McDonough as William Birkin , Chad Rook as Richard Aiken , Marina Mazepa as Lisa Trevor , Janet Porter as Annette Birkin and Holly De Barros as Sherry Birkin.

Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was at best OK. Which for this film OK at best is freaking fantastic because so much of this film sucks from the writing to the directing and so all the actors and actresses that are appearing in / starring in this film can do is just do the best that they can do which in this case simply just isn't good enough in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then if you thought that this film would treat it's iconic game characters with some actual respect then you'd be so freaking wrong. This is simply because this film gets all of of it's main iconic game characters wrong since they make Leon dumb as a freaking rock Clair is now this bada*s who can do no wrong and I won't spoil what they do to Wesker but let's just say that this film makes the Paul W.S. Anderson American produced live action Resident Evil films look actually good by freaking comparison in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


So now then this film is meant to be a reboot of the Paul W.S. Anderson films and are thus set in an entirely different continuity. However this film makes those films look actually good by comparison since at least those films were actually entertaining to watch where as this film feels like when your sat there watching somebody playing a first person shooter game because yes this film is that freaking boring to me in my personal opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this film is meant to be closer in tone and atmosphere to the games then the previous live action Resident Evil films were. Which is very much a commendable thing to even try to even attempt however in doing by / by doing that tho the makers of this film forget to make this film actually fun to watch which is is something that is very important when your making a film or a even a TV show for that matter in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.  


Now then I in all honesty have to wonder who the heck this film is even for since it's not going to make the die hard fans happy and this film is bad that it's not going to attract new fans either. Simply because of how bad this film is which is a shame because of the very freaking fact that video game movies by design are meant to encourage people to buy the source material and this film just simply isn't going to do that simply due to like how bad this film well and truly freaking is in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this film has / had a grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty seven minuets and twenty four seconds. Which is in all honesty a bit of a long running time for this film since this film has such a generic storyline with nothing new being added to the films main storyline whatsoever and as such I see no reason as to why this film couldn't have been forty five minuets which yes means the film wouldn't be feature length but that's all the running time that a storyline like this would really freaking allow in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then this film is meant to be a horror film after all and so that means that I have to actually talk about the actual horror that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film and well in all I honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual horror that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was just OK at best. Since there was nothing that was all that scary in this film which for a horror film you kind of need there to be some actual freaking scares in freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this film is one that any and all die hard and none die hard fans of the Resident Evil multi-media franchise should avoid at all costs because yeah this film is that freaking bad in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that / this means that this very freaking film earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Resident Evil fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images that are actually from this film and that that I personally / actually used in this very review being the official Resident Evil fandom wiki page this is simply because the official Resident Evil fandom wiki page actually has alot of images from this film and plus alot of / nearly all of the images that are from this film and that are currently up on the official Resident Evil fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition and as always we end this review as we always do which is with one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some very unpleasant dreams indeed.

The Munsters' Scary Little Christmas Film Review

 



Munsters fans since I had such a good time reviewing Here Come The Munsters for you all a few days ago and with a certain time of year being a just over a month away I thought that it was about time that I reviewed what was for a time at least the final ever Munsters reboot movie. As such I invite you all to join me as I review the film that proved that everything that the The Munsters franchises touches doesn't turn to gold with the film in question being called simply just "The Munsters' Scary Little Christmas" enjoy.

The plot of this film is Eddie Munster is missing Christmas from his home country / town of Transylvania and so in order to bring him out of his funk the rest of the The Munsters clan decide to do everything that they can to make his Christmas just freaking perfect. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot of this film in all honesty i in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot of this film was really freaking bad imply because the film starts  a bunch of different plot lines but that either drops or even forgets about them for little to no freaking reason which is a sign of freaking bad writing in my opinion anyways / at least. 



Starring in this film is Sam McMurray as Herman Munster , Ann Magnuson as Lily Munster and Bug Hall as Eddie Munster. Also starring in this film is Sandy Baron as Grandpa , Elaine Hendrix as Marilyn , Mary Woronov as Mrs. Edna Dimwitty , Ed Gale as Larry , Arturo Gil as Lefty , Mark Mitchell as Santa Claus , Jeremy Callaghan as Tom , John Allen as Mr. Pawlikowski , Noel Ferrier as The Voice Of The Door Knocker and Bruce Spence as Mr. Gateman.

Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very well in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was really freaking bad. I in all honesty cannot think of single good performance that came from this film because every single actor and actress that's appearing in / starring in this very freaking film turns in that bad of a freaking performance in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.



Now then unlike the previous Munsters movie Here Come The Munsters this film really doesn't like that it was made by genuine fans of the The Munsters TV series. Since none of the characters act in character and this lacks any of the heart that was present in both the TV show and was also present in Here Come The Munsters as well and so if anything this film felt like that it was made by a bunch who wanted to cash in a possible IP and so they didn't really bother to understand what it was that made that IP so special and actually good and freaking entertaining in the first freaking place in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


So now then if you thought that the The Munsters were the first horror themed family / cast of characters to have their own Christmas special well you'd be dead wrong because the earliest Christmas special from a horror themed comedy TV show / TV show series that I could find was from the second season of the 1964 TV series The Addams Family. I don't know why TV networks think that giving horror characters a christmas special or a christmas movie is a good idea because such a bizarre thing that you almost have to see it just to see how bizarre it really freaking is in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Now then I will very freaking admit that I found it very freaking frustrating that they did the exact same plot line that they always freaking do with Marilyn and that's give her yet another freaking love interest. Heck that plot line is just so freaking predictable at this point in time that you know exactly how it's going to play out and yes it plays / goes out exactly how you think that it's going to play / go out because that freaking plot line is that predictable and that is that freaking over done to freaking death at this freaking point in freaking time in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then this film straight recycles plot points and scenes from Here Come The Munsters like for example Herman has to get a job in both films and Herman walks into a building only to scare people once again in both freaking films. This just goes to show you how lazily made this film is because they are ripping off plot points and scenes from a movie that came out one year prior to this film which just makes the makers of this film comes across as being very freaking lazy and untalented in my opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this film has / had a grand old running time of exactly one hour and twenty nine minuets and thirty seconds and well this is where this films penchant for dropping and for forgetting about plots comes into effect. Since / because this film ends it's main plot line Eddie at around the half way mark and begins another main plot line Herman which lasts until the one hour and twenty mark with more scenes being freaking added in as nothing but pure freaking filler in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then this film is meant to be a comedy film after all and so that means that I have to talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film and well in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very freaking film was in all honesty really freaking bad. This is since not a single joke in this film got a huge laugh out of me and only few and Grandpa's lines were actually mildly funny the only issues I cannot for the life of me remember what those lines actually were but in this freaking film mildly funny is freaking fantastic in my opinions anyways / at least.


Overall for what should have been a homerun considering how good the film that came before this film which was called simply just "Here Come The Munsters" was this film some how failed at both being a homage to the original TV show The Munsters and at being a good way to update The Munsters franchise for the nineteen nineties in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such this film gets / earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 4.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this review from the official The Addams Family fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images that are actually from this film and that that I personally / actually used in this very review being Google Images this is simply because Google Images actually has alot of images from this film and plus alot of / nearly all of the images that are from this film and that are currently up on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition and as always we end this review as we always do which is with one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some very unpleasant dreams indeed.

Here Come The Munsters Film Review

 



Fans of The Munsters as you'll have no doubt have worked out be now i've been very freaking slowly working my way through all of the live action film adaptations of The Munsters. Which brings me to this review since this film is the next film in the The Munsters films series and so join me as I review the film that brought the The Munsters into the nineties with the film in question being called simply just "Here Come The Munsters" enjoy.

The plot of this film is Eddie , Herman , Lilly and Grandpa are sick and tired of their lives in Transylvania and so move to American to live with there cousin Marilyn and it turns out that Marilyn's father has been missing for sometime and to it's up to the entire Munster clan to find Marilyn's father begore Marilyn's mother dies of a broken heart. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot of this film in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the actual plot of this film was really freaking good and was shockingly both engaging and very entertaining to watch play out in this very freaking film in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Edward Herrmann as Herman Munster , Veronica Hamel as Lily Munster and Robert Morse as Grandpa. Also starring in this film is Christine Taylor as Marilyn Hyde , Mathew Botuchis as Eddie Munster , Troy Evans as Detective Warshowski , Joel Brooks as Larry Walker , Sean O'Bryan as Detective Cartwell , Mary Woronov as Mrs. Edna Dimwitty , Jeff Trachta as Brent Jekyll , Max Grodénchik as Norman Hyde , Judy Gold as Elsa Munster Hyde , Amanda Bearse as Mrs. Pearl and Francesca Smith as Monique.

Now then in terms of / as for what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well in in all honesty i in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this film was really freaking good. With Edward Herrmann in particular really capturing the spirit of Fred Gwynne's original portrayal of Herman Munster in my opinion anyways / at least.



Now then this film is both a prequel to and a reboot of the original The Munsters TV series from the early to mid 1960's. Since this film goes to great lengths to explain how The Munsters got everything that we know and love from the original The Munsters TV series however enough of the already established canon is changed for it to be it's own unique thing like for example in the original TV series Marylin is Lily's niece where is in this films continuity she is Herman's niece this is a small change and it's also a rather pointless change as it adds literally nothing to the overall plot of the freaking film in my opinion anyways / at least. 


Now then this film does infact include a rather cool cameo from all four of the surviving original cast members from the original Munsters TV show. However what I thought to be a pretty cool thing is that all of the characters that the original cast member are playing act like there original character from the original Munsters TV show even down to Pat Priests being the odd one out which is a nice little touch in my opinion anyways / at least.

So now then there are a few things that I personally didn't like about this film with one of those things being the whole subplot of Eddie being bullied at school goes absolutely nowhere and because this is a Munsters of course there's a rather freaking rushed romance subplot with Marylin. Which again goes absolutely nowhere with both subplots being there just to give the kid characters something in this film to do in my opinion anyways / at least.


So now then I have to admit I really did like what they did with Herman's sister Elsa Munster Hyde since she's made up to look like the titular bride from the 1935 film which is called simply just "The Bride of Frankenstein" and heck even the characters first name could be seen as a reference to actress Elsa Lanchester who played the bride in the aforementioned movie. However I do find it a bit weird since Herman is meant to be designed after Frankenstein and his sister in this film is designed to look like his wife from The Bride of Frankenstein if anything it would have made some sense to make Lily look like The Monsters Bride from The Bride Of Frankenstein in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this film has / had a grand total running time of exactly one hour and twenty nine minuets exactly / dead on and well in all honesty I in all honesty really didn't mind this films running time at all. This is since / because of the fact that this film has more then enough there in terms of freaking both plot and story to more then freaking cover this films freaking running time in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 



Now then since this film is meant to be a comedy film that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film and well if i'm being well and truly freaking honest here people the comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film is really freaking good. With alot of the jokes that are in this very film getting some really big and good laughs out me and it really does help that all of the jokes that are in this very film feel like that they've been ripped straight out of the original Munsters TV series / TV show in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.



Overall this film is in all honesty a really good reboot of these now officially iconic characters since it keeps the spirit of the original show and it keeps of the original characters whilst at the same time also updating both the show and the show and thus this films main cast of characters to the then present day of the 1990's in my opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very in this very review and as such that means that this film earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official The Munsters fandom wiki page , Wikipedia and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images that are actually from this film and that that I personally / actually used in this very review being Google Images this is simply because Google Images actually has alot of images from this film and plus alot of / nearly all of the images that are from this film and that are currently up on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition and as always we end this review as we always do which is with one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some very unpleasant dreams indeed.
