Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li

Bad...oh so bad. It actually started out not too bad, but then things just went downhill fast! I'm going to have to stop the bad movie watching after this one. You know a movie is bad when Chris Klein is in it. Sorry. I honestly don't know which movie was worse - this or "Fast and Furious." Flip a coin I guess.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Leg 2 of my "terrible movies I need to catch up on." I was expecting this one to suck as bad as "Fast and Furious" since that's what Peter had told me. However, it really wasn't THAT aweful. I guess the key is to have really really low expectations. Some things that went through my head when I was watching the movie:
  • What is Ryan Reynolds doing in this movie? He's such a stud. However, he's not as ripped as he was in "Blade Trinity."
  • Why is Will.i.am in this movie? What? Was Tyrese busy?
  • Those "bone" claws look realistic. Isn't he supposed to have metal claws? [fast forward]. Ugh...those metal claws look too fake.
  • Holy shit! Hugh Jackman is RIPPED! I wonder if actors use steroids to bulk up like this for movies?
  • Which X-Men character is that?

So, I'd say the first half to even 3/4 of the movie was "decent." Then the shit hit the fan at the end. The ending was terrible and left a bad taste in my mouth. Rent the movie if you're really desperate, but pass if you have better things to do with your time. Next stop - "Chun Li the movie."

Terrible. Just plain terrible. When I started the movie, I got confused because I thought I was watching the first one again. Now I wish I was because this movie was TERRIBLE! I don't know if this was supposed to be the sequel to the first one or the fourth one. Either way, the plot was really stupid and all the one-liners weren't funny. Vin Diesel's 15 minutes are up. You know a movie is bad when you are wishing you were watching or doing something else the entire time. I don't even think some Jordana Brewster nudity could have saved this aweful movie.... well maybe.

I never thought I'd watch this movie, and I only watched it because of my mom. She liked it. I did not like it that much. I guess me and dog movies don't mix. I think it was because John Travolta was the lead voice. Sorry. John Travolta should not be lead voicing a main character in an animated movie. That was why I never wanted to watch the movie. At least the black cat was funny...

So my mom is visiting me, and she likes to watch these goofball type of movies. I probably never would have watched this movie, but seeing Andy Garcia and the guy from "The Professional" in a stupd comedy made me laugh. Of course the movie was stupid, but it made me laugh more than a Judd Apatow movie. Zing!
