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!

BLADE RUNNER




I know I'm gonna piss off a few fanboys with THIS review, but, I have to admit, I've never been that big of a "fan" of Alien and the earlier-reviewed Thelma & Louise director Ridley Scott's celebrated sci-fi flick Blade Runner starring Harrison Ford. This movie was released a few years after Star Wars made Ford a household name. In it, he stars as a futuristic cop who tracks down a group of rouge androids known as "replicants" who act just like humans. Quite frankly, like The Terminator and The Dark Knight, I'd heard so much about this movie before I watched it and, when I finally watched it, it kind of left me feeling, well, disappointed. My favorite part about the movie was the ultra hot Daryl Hannah as a ultra hot "replicant" (of Splash and Kill Bill fame). Otherwise, I felt the flick was far too slow-moving for my taste. Again, I know I'll probably upset some fanboys by saying this about this cult-esque film, but, hey, this is MY movie review blog! If you don't like it, WRITE YOUR OWN DAMN MOVIE REVIEW BLOG!!!! A sidenote: Not to go off-topic, but there's actually an "adult" film star who's not only named Daryl Hannah but she actually looks like the famed actress. Go figure!
