Funny, i like commando, with all o fit's stupidity, but the Ft13 movies generally bored and annoyed me. 1was okay, i can appreciate it for what it is, but slashers in general have no place in my world. give me aliens.

yep ..

thats why i always add the disclaimer that its a personal opinion of mine.

i never expect to sway anyone's opinion on a film, or think less of them if they like something i dont ..

half of the films i like other people hate ...



one exception. i think anyone who could possibly consider Dirty Dancing a good film ... is in dire need of medication.

CMON!

Check it out, Vod.

It is stupid, there's no denying that, but it seems gleeful in its stupidity. I totally agree with everything urge says about the film...and that's what makes me love it.

The characters aren't cardboard, they're tracing paper.

It the extreme shallowness of the film (and its self-awareness) that makes it somehow rise above its formula.

Hmm... Self-awareness sounds promising... That was one of the things i always liked about the airplane movies, probably the only movies outside of tradingplaces that could break the thrid wall and actually make things funnier because of it.

I'm with Rod on this one. I totally got the cheese and enjoyed it.Sometime you need a good "put brain on hold" movie.

best line:

Brodski: Yeah, that oughta do it.

well i own the fucker on DVD so i could give it a spin .. i just have to skip the android woman parts - and the spot where the space station is hit with the slow moving spaceship...

you think that far in the future they would have figured out a way to protect themselves


i know - i know !!!! i'm not supposed to think along those lines !!!


for the record i really dont like any of the fri-13 films very much at all..
