The next step in my quest to watch all 100 of Rotten Tomatoes' Worst of the Worst movies of the decade: German director Uwe Boll is famous for two things: 1) making movies based on video games and 2) making some of the worst movies of all time. Coincedence? Doing some research, I found that according to Metacritic, the best reviewed movie based on a video game is Mortal Kombat. To repeat, Mortal Kombat is the best ever movie based on a video game. One of those movies, not directed … more
Pros: None; okay the sex was pretty good; Loken's not bad to look at. Cons: Everthing; okay the sex was pretty good. Plot Details: This opinion reveals minor details about the movie''s plot. I didnt have high hopes when I turned on this movie and I was not disappointed, or rather I was disappointed, because I hoped I was wrong.

I've never played the game before but I knew of it and told myself I had to see this movie, especially because of the great cast.

The plot is pretty standard. The child of some big bad evil creature uses their … more
"Bloodrayne" has received nothing but poor publicity from the moment it hit the big screen. It's been written off for everything from bad acting, horrible action, and darn-near porn sequences. However, after watching this flick, I don't really see what all the fuss is about. Sure, the acting is really bad at times, but I've seen worse in many other flicks. The action looks pretty good in my opinion, though the blood and gore is actually silly at times. As far as the porn goes, there's a bunch of … more
Pros: Some good action. Cons: Stiff acting, thin plot. The Bottom Line: If you are a fan of the genre, there are far worse films you could see.
