This is just as the topic says.

I'm going to post a review of the movie that I have watched. Post a link to the movies website, if available. Also I'm going to start a "Thumbs up" rating system. But instead of "Thumbs up" it's going to be Miligrams of NovaCaine.

0Mgs - Best Movie of all Time
1Mgs - Excellent Movie. I'd recommend it too anyone.
2Mgs - Worth watching a second time.
3Mgs - Pretty good movie.
4Mgs - I liked it. They could of done a better job.
5Mgs - Okay movie.
6Mgs - Not too shabby. Better luck next time though.
7Mgs - Meh. I've seen better.
8Mgs - Wow. People actually paid to see this?
9Mgs - Don't quit your day job fellas!
10Mgs- They should put this movie under.

So at the end you will see a number that represents the rating.

ie. 9Mgs - Worse than Trauma trying to use duals.

Also, if you don't see your post here I have probably deleted it. I'm going to keep it clean so ppl can get to the reviews faster. Thanks!

Blade: Trinity (2004)

Sigh... I waited forever for this movie. Needless to say I was very disappointed. I thought that after the second movie flopped they would of at least put an effort into the third and final installment of the Blade movies. Obviously they brought in Jessica, Ryan, and Triple H because they needed some more fire power for it. Wesley by himself just wasn't cutting it anymore. Plus he is getting old, and the possibly just needed some young blood in the movie (no pun intended). To me personally, Ryan Reynolds had the best lines in the movie. Without him, this movie would of been a complete disaster. A lot of you are probably going to disagree with me on this but it's my opinion. People who read the comics know that it's simple impossible to take a comic book character and put the entire story into three movies. They did a good job trying, but they could have easily made it into 5 or 6, stretched it out, built a bigger fan base even. But none the less, it's was an okay movie, and I know I'll end up watching it again.

Star Wars - Ep I, II, IV, V, VI (Request by Ripley)

I'm just going to do one review for the entire saga, it will take much less time.

I am a HUGE Star Wars fan. Ever since I seen that first scene with Luke and Obi on Tattoine. Amazing characters, sets, and overall storyline is what Star Wars is all about. However, I believe with EP I they could have done a way better job. I mean whose idea was it to put in Jar Jar? He is a complete waste of animated graphics.

The best part about EP I was Darth Maul. Star Wars fans have waited forever to see another Sith other then Vader. In my eyes, Maul was no disapointment. The actor who played him (Ray Park - also seen as Toad in X-Men) did a truly amazing job. Being a martial artist himself, he was the perfect choice for Maul. The overall story took a complete dive after Obi and Qui Gon left the Trade Federation ship in the first 10 minutes. They just could of done a better job with the storyline.

EP II was much better. I mean seeing like 50 Jedi fighting at once? Unbelievably cool. Not too mention that we finally got to see Yoda fight, and he klcked ass! The like how the clone army came to be. But answer me this. In the original trilogy why were the Storm Troopers so freakin' stupid? In EP II they were wicked. Seeing Anakin being grown up was pretty cool too. We finally got to see him fight not as Vader. Overall good movie, but the final lightsaber fight between Dooku and Anakin could of lasted a bit longer.

In episodes IV, V, VI we see Luke, Anakins son. Seventeen years between two movies is a lot, but they did an amazing job telling the story of Luke and how he came to be. This trilogy was amazing, best of all time. Who can forget, "Luke, I am your father!"? Probably one of the most shocking moments in any movie. In ROTJ we see Luke slightly turn to the Darkside. What do I mean you ask? When Vader starts talking about Leia, Luke because enraged and this is was makes him destroy Vader. Then the lousy Emperor interviens and using his lame ass lightning. Darth Vader turns good again yada yada yada.

For any Sci-Fi fan all of these movies are a must have. It tells the story of one of the greatest fantasies of all time. If you haven't seen them, they are definately worth watching.

Never Die Alone

Another rap star turned movie star. DMX and David Arquette both play amazing roles in this movie. To tell you the truth it wasn't half bad. The whole movie leaves you wondering whats going on until the very end. Nothing else really to say about this one. Check it out if you like Drama/Suspense movies.

King Arthur

I wanted to see this movie before they even began production. It's the true story about Arthur and his Knights. I loved this movie from the beginning to the end. Plus Keira Knightley is way hot, so that helped a bit. If you love history movies, action movies, drama movies, and just overall good movies I'd say go see this one. From the costumes, weapons, and sceneary it was all just amazing. Go get this one.

Without a Paddle

This movie is so f**king hilarious. It's a spoof of the old move Deliverance with Burt Reynolds. Guess what? He's in this one too. This movie has some action in it too, but mostly it's a comedy. It can make you cry, laugh, and go woah. I recommend this too any comedy fan. Matt, Seth, and Dax all give amazing performances. And Burt, you'd never think you'd seem him in a role like this. Really good movie. Check it out.
