A good movie

Before becoming a big shot in Hollywood, before 'The Lord of the Rings', Peter Jackson made this flick which was ultimately a flop. If I remember correctly, I saw this movie when it came out in the movie theater and I did enjoy it back then. So, I rewatched it yesterday with my step-son and I must say, it still holds pretty good. Before 'LOTR', Peter Jackson used to make some really wacky comedies... read more

"24/2 "Hey look at me I'm Peter Jackson and I got all this cash to make a movie that advertises how good we are at CGI over here at Wingnut I guess this won't do too well in a couple of years due to being an ad for an industry that's moving forward rapidly but what do I care about the movie it's an ad oh wait mr. Producer Man you're making this into a movie why the oh man""

Mack's Movies 2013: February (19 movies items)

" February 11th: Instant watch, computer Overall opinion: Good! The first half was a bit cheesy and goofy and I thought I wasn't gonna like it, but it really picked up. It got a bit exciting near the end and most of the characters were fleshed out. Not really scary at all (was it supposed to be? The movie poster made me think it might, but then I saw MJF as lead and thought, maybe not), a fun popcorn flick though, and I liked Michael J. Fox in it. "

A Complete review of Peter Jackson's work (12 movies items)

" Cast: Michael J. Fox What was it about? When you go through a traumatic experience, it kind of alters your attitude. My two cents: If I remember correctly, I saw this movie when it came out in the movie theater. For Peter Jackson, it was his first movie oriented towards the mainstream audience but he still retained his dark humor and it was much appreciated. Furthermore, if for Peter Jackson, it was his last movie before reaching the VIP section in Hollywood, on the other hand, fo"
