Pooperscoopers Popcorn Reviews: The Ruins

Post by POOPERSCOOPER »

It wasn't scary at all but it was entertaining as it was somewhat original for a horror type of movie. The vines at a temple like swallow you and stuff and there is a few scenes where they do some gruesome stuff to each other. I recommend it if you like horror and espionage/thriller movies except for the latter.

Also, during the previews there showed a movie that looked somewhat interesting because it had Robert Downey Jr. playing a black guy in a comedy about actors making a Vietnam movie that turns REAL ZOMG. It's called Tropic Thunder and has jack black and ben stiller in it also.

So it's just another mediocre popcorn movie? y/n/mabye

I saw The Island today, it was very Puma, Chrysler, insert brand name iirc plus that hottie Johansson wasn't even allowed to show her tits. That movie sucked

Sorry to say Pooper, but your reviews are pretty dreadnought. I read it and had no fucking clue whatsoever about the movie. You gotta brush up those journalism skills, yo.

There are times when I know I could make a more successful movie. That was one of those times. Even with the shit story.

I could end up describing the story of the movie doing my best not to spoil anything. Would that make them better?

yeah - no spoilers - I get all my best reviews here at DaC

@ Thor - only time I've ever seen Johanssen boobs was a clip from an interview :grope-age:

quick edit - also, on the poll options - am I rating your review, or the movie?
