I watch movies every week and then write down my thoughts. Read my previous reviews!
My rating is simple, Watch It, It Depends, Skip it.

| Titan A.E. - Amazing animation, though a cliche story. |
Titan A.E. (2000)
Watch Titan A.E.
Written by: Hans Bauer Randall McCormick (story), Ben Edlund and John August and Joss Whedon (screenplay)
Directed by: Don Bluth, Gary Goldman, Art Vitello (some scenes)
Starring: Joseph
Rated: PG
Plot:
Earth has been destroyed. Its inhabitants are forced to wander though space, rejected by other species and hunted by the Dregs. Cale is the one man with a map that could offer salvation for humanity.
Review:
It's a great looking movie, as Don Bluth animated films usually are. While animated, it is geared more for adults. While the story is cliche, the animation more than makes up for it, and I like the music. I only wish for more characterization, as the protagonists are a bit flat.
It depends.

| Snowpiercer - Logic may lapse, but the entertainment doesn't. |
Watch Snowpiercer
Written by: Bong Joon Ho and Kelly Masterson (screenplay), Bong Joon Ho (screen story), Jacques Lob & Benjamin Legrand and Jean-Marc Rochette (Based on Le Transperceneige by)
Directed by: Bong Joon Ho
Starring: Chris Evans, Ed Harris, John Hurt, Jamie Bell, Tilda Swinton
Rated: R
Plot:
The world is frozen over, and the last survivors are on a train that never stops, traveling the world. The bottom class, seeks to overthrow the first class at the front of the train, but no uprising has ever made it that far.
Review:
It's very gripping if you can suspend your disbelief. There are a lot of elements that leave unanswered questions, such as train layout. Is there really so little privacy? Do people really have to walk through living quarters to traverse the train. Despite the questions, it's a neat concept. While one can argue those parts were just unseen, it could have been explained better. I like the ending. It's much more bleak than you might first realize.
Watch it.
