may in movies

Return of the Living Dead 4, Necropolis - featuring hackers so elite they redirect cd drives to a: , great overacting and greatly horrible lines, and mediocre gore. 3/10 in genre, 1/10 overall

A Sound of Thunder - decent enough cast in a poorly written scifi. Goes nowhere fast, doesn't even feature decent effects. 4/10 in genre, 3/10 overall

Little Fish - Good Blanchett in a fairly well-written (if obvious) story about the difficulties of escaping the weight of our past actions. Very "feely" movie. 6/10 in genre, 7/10 overall

Akira - action packed scifi anime that can be read a million different ways thanks to its varied and vague messages and incredible attention to detail, though some might say a little light on true depth (a view furthered by the chessy dialogue). Includes possibly the best scoring of any movie. 10/10 in genre, 9/10 overall

Spirited Away - poignant fantasy tale about growing up. Great plot, characters, animation, scoring, dialogue. A wonderful world is created by master Miyazaki, following a dynamic central character as she deals with the stress of moving to a new city, and parents who just won't listen. 10/10 in genre, 9/10 overall

History of the World, Part I - Brooks' version of our past starts with pre-history, but isn't mean for its technical aspects. Cheesy yet addictive humour, with lines that resonant throughout the years, and acting to match. 7/10 in genre, 5/10 overall



Sorry, didn't really have time to watch more movies, seemed i kept having to work (don't know why i kept doing that), or hang out (don't know who kept making me do that).
