I was hoping to have a repeat of the original but it started like a soft porn movie which I found distracting from the plot, it was really silly but once the original two characters came into the plot it settled down into the amusing and silly format of the original. It entertained me enough to keep me watching but it lacked that polished edge that you know costs more than these producers had to spend, more amusing stuff would have carried it along better and there was the character Big Ray who actually was the best actor in the movie, but played only a tiny part, pity. The grand finale was just really rubbish though, pitting an Iron Man like suit against some wolverine like woman, it was just crappy nonsensical plot line, something more simple and more inline with the humour would have carried it off better.

I am a fan of silly comedy action movies, think of true lies as an example and this had the story to be one but alas it ran out of money while filming the last half first leaving the beginning without a budget or script, The introduction was truly awful with a poorly written script and terrible acting, the lead actor was OK but just not powerful enough to carry the scenes and did not have any comedic ability, I was about to turn it off but I wanted to write a review on this one so i persevered. Once the cast arrived in Tahiti and Rob Schneider appeared and the lead woman had some real acting to do the movie came to life and the plot came together. Katharine McPhee is a stunningly beautiful actress and was really believable in her part and she and the supporting cast along with Rob pulled the movie along quite nicely, Vinnie Jones is type cast as a hard nut job wanting to kill everyone but he can only overact these days through gritted teeth. but he was OK. Overall with better scripting and maybe a better lead actor the movie could have provided a base for a true classic but the B movie hall of fame is full of almost classics, if it was ever intended to be a comedy it missed the mark by a mile, but the last 45 minutes had me entertained, Rob Schneider should have been let loose far more in this and he could have carried it along better.

I was intrigued to see Vinnie Jones in this movie as he is slipping down the ratings and only popping up in low level rubbish these days. As soon as the movie started i realised this was also low level rubbish, there is something charming and addictive to seeing low budget movies, I usually end up laughing at the plots that fall apart and silly fight scenes. This did the same for me, Vinnie even invited his own death from a beautiful assassin, such a silly plot, continuous drivel dialogue, over and under acted plots, it has everything that low budget movies throw out. I tried laughing but it wasn't quite bad enough to become a comedy. I ended up playing some online game with my 10 year old daughter while the movie was playing. There was no such thing as a hidden plot as the link between some mysterious terrorist group the the Lieb organisation was given to us in the first 1 minute, that is usually a bad sign when they explain the plot in the introduction. Quite appalling but not complete tosh. but not worth the time wasted on watching it.

I really didn't know what to expect from something with such a bizarre title, which isn't always a good sign, I expected something appalling to the point of humorous but this was way beyond appalling. Terribly cheap special effects are always a high point of such low budget movies and this didn't disappoint. From the badly done animations of snowcats and the amazing spaceship, how did it jump from antarctic to Nazi spaceships, the gory experimentation was just pathetic and pointlessly over complicated, with horror usually less means more in the way of heightened tension but ripping out someones brains while complaining isn't conducive to tension, overall it was well filmed but as always with B movies it was shockingly poorly scripted with wooden acting. It was disjointed and quite frankly silly, a nazi created wonderland under the ice with spaceships just stretched credibility to infinity.

I was expecting a spectacular show of a very famous story that can only be told one way, unfortunately this sad and lonely film is a long long way from being spectacular. The wicked queen is not beautiful, not her fault but bad casting, snow white is not good looking either and is quite miserable actually, the story departs from the Disney one by having animated evil creatures, all of which were so poorly done as to be laughable, the script was just jumping from one silly evil creature fight scene to another with not much joining them, one thing that unites all cheapo films is the wooden acting and this did not disappoint, just wooden stilted disjointed rubbish that just killed any worthwhile elements in the story. I had to turn it off half way though as my wife couldn't stand anymore of my complaining, I wasted 45 minutes of valuable drinking time thinking it may be watchable. Don't make the same mistake.

I really didn't know what to expect with this one, but the movie took a tense edge from the start and the leading actor who i do not know was perfect in the role as a cop with a sad life and an alcohol problem. The plot was tight and unrolled slowly and with a plan, it kept you watching not knowing what to expect next. The intertwined story of lovers and rich folks and a hooker always gives a plot a good edge and this was no exception, don't get me wrong this was a low key thriller not a dirty harry style movie but it was moody enough to leave me feeling happy with the ending and not like i had wasted my time. i really enjoyed this movie and i would recommend it for anyone who like good B Movies with a plot.

This was probably the most inspirational documentary i have seen ever, the fact the movie showed the guy losing the weight during the 60 day trip across the USA and it inspired a fat trucker to jump into the same program, I felt uplifted to watch the fat trucker actually losing a huge amount of weight, I am maybe 20 pounds overweight which is nothing but I am going to start introducing a liquid meal into my daily routine, I wish every overweight kid would watch this and feel as positive about it as i do, it should be made part of schools social sciences classes to show what can be done and so easily. It is what most folks really need to be faced with the facts about eating todays processed rubbish. I am going straight out to buy a juicer and all the greens that go with it
