*FILM REVIEW*
howdy country-boys'n'girls!...
this time we have again a variety of
choices... for everyone there's some-
thing!... and if there's something you
want to see in here then get off your
lazy ass and take pen'n'paper or load
one of those (aussie?) notewriters and
begin typing/writing!....
this time we begin with only 1 review
of a film...
ROBIN HOOD: PRINCE OF THIEVES...
(with kevin kostner, sean connery,
ernest bourigine,...)
this is a good remake of the old version
... but has lost some of its charm!...
still the makers have chosen for a NON-
NAKED SCENE... no running maked woman
in here!... but we have to picture this
in the middle ages!...
the film has a quit amazing begin and
a not so amazing end, although the end
sequence is so mighty exaggerated it
becomes almost a CONNECTION and it is as
the film contains some little funny
things and does help you coming trough
the time!... this film takes over 2
hours and is NO real waste of time!....
i think it's not woth to get off your
lazy ass and go and see him in the
CINEMA but it wouldn't be a waste of
money to rent him!...
this film has a bit of everything
(action, adventure, romance,...) but so
had the 1st version. so this movie isn't
really a CORKER, but a quit normal film.
RATING: 55/100
look out for TERMINATOR 2!
the film will come out end september/
begin october...
mighty cool soundtracks are made by
GUNS'N'ROSES and are choosen by the
warrior himself: ARNOLD SHWARZENEGGER;
the anti-hroof this film!
FIRE please
