Wow 4 movies in 3 days, thats not too bad.
Now to tell you the truth most of these movies are actuall pretty Damn good, some of them you will definatly have heard of, and some maybe not, but building up the suspence of what movies i'm talking about and let's just start Talking about them.
"Lock, stock and two smoking barrels".
This was one of Guy Ritchies first films, many people may have heard of him, and most recently he came back with a new movie callled "Rock and rolla", I haven't seen that yet but really that doesn't matter right now.
The film has a very gritty style to it, being that it portrayes british gangsters it would seem to be appropriate, it's filmed in a way that only guy ritchie could probably pull it off, it has a very unique style to it.
The actors in the movie all do a very good job, and sometimes with the gritty camera work I think I'm watching a documentary.
The storyline, in all honesty I can't really explain, being that there is like 4 sets of characters not really related in much way and they're all going around doing differant things. One of the cool things about this is that they all sort of come together towards the end which just shows how cleverly written this films really is.
Judging by maybe the cover of the dvd, or the look of the movie you may think of this as a Drama, well yes there are elements of drama in it, but it's actually more of a comedy and beleive me when I say this, it is very funny.
All in all I thought Lock stock and two smoking barrels was treat and it's definatly worth a watch.

"Brain dead"
Now many people are gonna be shocked to know that this movie came from the director of the Lord of the rings trilogy Peter Jackson.
This is with out a doubt the Goriest movie that I have ever seen in my life, the amount of deaths in this movie is just astounding and the make up for the zombies is amazing, but also let me tell you that almost every death in this movie is different in some way, wheather the person gets their head ripped off or the have their arms and legs chopped off it's always different in some way or another.
The acting, well all I can say about that is well everyone did a good job, but they all seemed to have this cartoon like qaulity to them, this just added to the slapstick humour that the movie had.
But some people might ask why is it funny, well just because it's so over the top, violent and grotesk, and just as a little side not, when this film first came out to cinemas, they supplied barf bags before people went in, and to tell you the truth I never actually felt like thowing up while watching this which is kind of odd but whatever.
If your a zombie fan or just in the mood for a laugh or to be grossed out then this is deffinatly worth a watch.

"The warriors"
Well just by the look of the cover you can guess that this movie is about gangs trying to beat the crap out of each other, which to many people sounds just plain fucking awesome.
But it would seem that their is far more to it than that, in the begining of the movie it would seem that all the gangs are at trouse, but when a man cyrus, the man who kept all the gangs together is killed the warriors are accused, and the whole movies is basically them fighting off the cops and other gangs in an effort to try and get back to their own territory.
The actors and actresses all do a very good job, the love interest doesn't seem to follow the same sort of template that you would expect for your average love story, and half of the time the guy doesn't even seem to care, clearly stating that he doesn't want to get close to anyone.
The action sequences all looked pretty damn brutal and I would have to say my favourite scene is the fight scene in the mensroom of a subway station with 5 warrioirs against maybe 7 other guys, that just says one thing, don't fuck with the warriors.
Beleive me when I say this movie is not to be fucked with either.

"Scarface"
Al pacino you are fucking amazing as Tony Montana, if some one dared to remake this movie without you then I swear to god they are going down.
All I can say for this movie is it is freaking awesome, the development of tony's character through the movie is jst great, we can see just how mad he is going with the more power he gets, and him going from the bottom all the way to the top is really interesting to watch, the whole idea of the american dream is conveyed really well here.
The sountrack, in some parts reminded me of the music from the original "Assault on precinct 13", but then you get the song "Push it to the limit" and let me just say that that song is awesome. So yes the music plays a big part in the movie and it doesn't seem to make the movie that outdated, but in all honesty I don't beleive in that whole outdated thing anyways, thats all shit.
And I have to say that the final scene is just amazing and really all I have to say now is, watch this movie it is neccaserry, let me just say that now.
