My 7 most disappointing movies of 2013

Hey, it's 2014! Hooray! One year is over, another one has just started. That means it's time for the obligatory end of the year lists! Let's start off with the one I'll probably get the most flak for, my list of the greatest disappointments. Behold, disappointment doesn't equal bad (well, it could, but it doesn't have to), so if you find a movie on this list that you actually like, yada yada yada, you get the spiel, my list, my opinion, if you want to troll, then troll away. But enough said, have a look at these 7 disappointments:

My 5 favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger movies

Hey, did you notice, Arnold Schwarzenegger is back! Again! This time for real! Granted, he hasn't technically been gone for too long but in terms of film generations he definitely has to make up some ground to compete with the Katniss Everdeens and Tony Starks of our times. While his most recent films have bombed (The Last Stand made a laughable $12 million on a $45 million dollar budget and Escape Plan with his buddy Stallone slightly improved to an equally dismal $24 million on a budget of $50 million), it is important to remember what made him such a big star in the first place. That's why I present to you my 5 favorite movies starring the Austrian Oak!

Cloud Atlas (2012) Review

I find it quite hard to pass judgment on Cloud Atlas, the highly divisive and incredibly ambitious directorial collaboration between Tom Tykwer and the Wachowski siblings. It's one of those films that reaches for the stars and tries to get a hold of century-spanning tales with a multitude of characters of all ages and races.

Only God Forgives (2013) Review

Remember how much I enjoyed Drive with Ryan Gosling? Well, he teamed up again with the same director, Denmark's Nicolas Winding Refn, and here we are to see whether Only God Forgives can continue the strong showing of their previous collaboration.

Is it just me ... or is the poster for the upcoming "Noah" ripping off "2012"?

Well, let's hope that Darren Aronofsky will also find space in his epic for apocalypse nut Woody Harrelson in full-on crazy mode, that will make Noah easily twice as entertaining. I guess we'll have to wait until March 28, 2014 to find out.

Corman's World (2011) Review

The film world is so full of important and influential people (and of people who THINK they are important and influential) that one can easily get lost in the shuffle. However, there are some that simply stand out without a doubt, like the schlockmeister himself, Roger Corman. A documentary about him seems like a sure thing, so how does Corman's World fare?

Seven Psychopaths (2012) Review

Martin McDonagh is a pretty damn talented filmmaker and screenwriter. His first full length feature film In Bruges had won critical acclaim around the world, snatched an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay and was a modest success at the box office. So can he repeat the trick with his follow up feature Seven Psychopaths?
