“Mr. Brooks” Movie Review
“Mr. Brooks” Plot Summary
A psychological thriller about a man who is sometimes controlled by his murder-and-mayhem-loving alter ego.
Pleasantly Surprised
I didn’t expect much considering all the bad reviews (not that those matter) but actually found this to be quite entertaining for the most part. It really plays with your mind, an original psychological thriller compared to most others out there today. Kevin Costner, in an interesting new turn for him, plays Mr. Brooks, a self-made multi-millionaire with a beautiful house and a loving wife and daughter. His business colleagues have nothing but respect for him. But he has a dark secret… he’s addicted to killing people and has been for years. He fights his addiction by attending AA meetings at church and just calling himself ‘an addict.’ William Hurt plays ‘Marshall,’ his twisted inner-voice who eggs him on. I found Costner and especially Hurt to be quite a hoot in a very darkly comic sort of way, they actually make quite a duo. The ending could have been worked with better, but overall this was well-done and a must-see for any fans of Costner or Hurt, or any fans of thrillers that actually show a good sense of humor.

“AVPR: Aliens vs Predator – Requiem” Movie Review
“AVPR” Plot Summary
Warring alien and predator races descend on a small town, where unsuspecting residents must band together for any chance of survival.
Well I loved it
Now now people, when the first AVP came out we all slagged it for being a lame PG and we all screamed for some violence and some gore… well then, that is what we got and you still complain??!! It is what it claims to be all out war between the aliens and the predator. who cares if we don’t really get to know any of the human characters and we don’t care if they live or die the film isn’t really about them (the clue is in the title). yes it is dark but if you really can’t see whats going on then you either need glasses or a better TV. this film was what i hoped it would be and what i wanted from the first one. people need to get over the fact that this is not Cameron’s Aliens vs John McTiernan’s Predator. it was never going to be that but for what it is, a film about a predator killing lots of aliens and a load of humans caught in the middle, it is fantastic.
