A Quick Look for You – 2 Movie Review

Nollywood Movies (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

I have gotten to watch a couple of movies this week and thought I would take a moment and just let you consider them. They are at opposing ends on the spectrum.

The first film is entitled “This Means War“.

It stars Reece Witherspoon (the only reason I would watch “Legally Blond”.

It is the story of two CIA agents who are very different and who both fall in love with Reece. They go all out to try and win her and it is hilarious. It also features a lot of action, thrills, and even some romance worked in there.

I liked it and that is not normally my type of movie. It was well-worth the time, however, and I recommend it with an 8 of 10 rating after finishing it.

I do believe it is rated R so be careful who watches with you and for the trailer below – has language and some sex-related material.

The second movie is entitled “Predators“.

It is not funny. It is not very romantic – though there is a bit.

It is a lot of action and quite a bit of gore.

The “Predator” series has been around quite awhile and I almost dismissed this one because I didn’t know if I could take another one. Wrong! This one takes a really different look at it and has a multitude of stars in its main cast.

There were enough that the acting was excellent and the plot was not very standard. It tripped me up several times and that’s what I enjoy. Also rated R. I know most of my readers won’t like it and won’t watch it. That’s why I did the other one first.

I would rate this one another 8 of 10 but for different reasons, obviously. The clip is a bit rough – just so you know – language and some gore.

As an extra, no clip, however, if you really like “chick flicks” a short list of several I truly enjoyed was:
1) Pride and Prejudice with Kiera Knightley
2) How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
3) Bicentennial Man

Okay, enjoy.
Namaste,
Scott
