Welcome to my Movie Blog!

Hi, I'm Tony, a.k.a. The Non Roger Ebert (R.I.P., Roger!), and welcome to my movie blog. First, let me start out by saying that this WON'T be any ordinary movie blog as I'll be reviewing movies you've probably heard of before or probably never thought about watching. Yes, I will review the occasional "mainstream" film (mostly to slam it!) and I'll be reviewing films both past and present (mostly past since I think most films released nowadays suck canal water!). I also won't be using any star ratings or thumbs up or thumbs down or anything like that since if you CAN'T figure out how much I love or loathe a film by my movie reviews alone then you're a dumb mofo, please exit the site NOW!!!! Along with the movie reviews will be commentaries on various celebrities and/or the so-called "entertainment" business in general. Enjoy!

AN ODE TO MILLA JOVOVICH IN THE "RESIDENT EVIL" FLICKS

 
Milla Jovovich has starred in the popular film franchise Resident Evil based on the popular video game. In the RE flicks, Milla Jovovich plays Alice, a genetically-engineered assassin created by the sinister Umbrella corporation that pretty much runs everything (sort of like Rupert Murdoch!). Alice decides to turn rogue and devotes her existence to the destruction of Umbrella. The flicks are pretty much all the same: They start out with Alice waking up in some Umbrella facility--usually with barely any clothing!--where she promptly escapes where she travels around and recruits others to her anti-Umbrella cause. The flicks generally end with Alice engaging in some sort of climatic battle with some Umbrella agent and/or some murderous mutant creature created by Umbrella (while dressed in skintight clothing, no less!). And her companions either disappear or get killed off outright setting up for the next RE flick where the pattern starts all over again. Of course, the best thing about these flicks is Milla Jovovich who, without her, these flicks would more than likely be reduced to B-movie-esque tripe. The best RE flick is arguably the very first one, which, if you'll recall, I previously reviewed. Overall, the RE flicks are passable enough action flicks even if, as I've pointed out, they kind of blend into each other. But, again, the main reason to watch these flicks is to watch Milla Jovovich kick ass AND take names (while dressed in skintight clothing and sometimes less, no less!), which, as anyone who's a fan of these flicks can easily attest to, she does QUITE well!

  1. She's the best thing about those movies, no doubt. I can only really tolerate parts 1 and 3, the rest are awful, but Milla's dedication is impressive.
