3 Extremes II
It wasn't as good as the first installment... but I guess it was alright. Nothing really blew me away, but the third and final story was close to doing just that. In order; the third, the first, then the second. I didn't like the style of the second, and the first made little sense, but I loved the third. Worth a watch if your into different region horror shorts.
Peaceful Warrior
Different then your typical overcoming-challenges movie. It didn't focus so much on the physical-side of training, rather the psychological-side. Like the message in the movie states (it's the journey, not the destination) we are left with a "cliffhanger" ending - further enforcing the point that it was the journey we were to watch, and that the film isn't your typical train-fight-win in the style of Rocky, for example. It was okay, nothing too blow-me-away... but it was well-crafted and worth a look. If your into the softer-side of sporting movies, try this out.
The Lost Boys
It was fun, I wish I had watched it as a child though - still held up today, but I mean... it would be so much better with that nostalgia added to the impact. Is Corey Feldman ever NOT irritating? Every role he plays seems to annoy the living frick' right out of me. Some moments were hilarious (unintentional, I assume) and I wouldn't really go in looking for a serious film about vampires. It's just plain fun. Solid movie.
