List Of Reviewed Thriller Movies:
The latest part of Saw movie series... It
was what i expected, horror-crime with lots of sick and
bloody scenes... Many have told Saw V will be the worst
part so far before it hit the public but in my opinion
they were wrong :) It is not the best part but is
defiantly worth watching, especially if you liked
previous Saw movies... Saw V gets pretty good 3.5 out of
maximum 5 from me :)

Ok, this was a good one :) Lakeview
Terrace did something that a very small number of movies
managed to do to me - to make me hate some character so
bad that i wish i could get into movie and kick his
bottom :) Samuel L. Jackson played his role as dirty cop
who's also a racist just perfectly in my opinion...
Lakeview Terrace is movie that shows us what a guy like
that can do when young inter-racial married couple moves
in house next to his... Lakeview Terrace gets very good
4.5 out of maximum 5 from me, don't think about it -
just get it and watch it if you ask me :)

The Alphabet Killer is movie based on true
killings in Rochester, NY... Personally i love movies
based on true stories because i'm aware what i'm
watching actually happened to someone... I liked The
Alphabet Killer because it kept me tense whole time and
till the last few scenes i couldn't tell who the serial
killer was... On the other hand mental problems of main
character were a bit distracting and i think movie would
be better if it was only focused on murders and
killer... Anyway, The Alphabet Killer gets solid 4 out
of maximum 5 from me :)

I was looking at some titles i have
watched some time ago and saw Anamorph from 2007...
Since i couldn't remember what it was about i just
played it expecting good thriller (it was marked as one
on my movies list)... Damn, was i wrong... after 15-20
minutes i knew why i couldn't remember it - i never
watched it till the end because first time when i played
it i got so bored after half an hour that i just quit it
and played something else... However Anamorph stayed on
my PC because i wanted to give it another chance one day
just in case i wasn't in mood for thrillers that day...
But as i said it failed again and i am giving it 2 out
of maximum 5 and recommend everybody to avoid it...

Here we go, another movie with terrorism
and terrorists, one of many many others made in near
past... Will American propaganda ever stop? Like anyone
who got half of a normal human's brain will ever swallow
it (check out Documentary category and Zeitgeist movies
to see who really was behind 9/11 and other so called
"terrorist" attacks) :( anyway, i'm not here to talk
about politics but about movie and Traitor is a good
one... It offers lots of tense action, insight view of
Muslim life and habits (i can't say how much it's
relevant since i'm not Muslim tho) and few unexpected turns
in story that will keep you interested till the end :) I'm giving it
4 out of maximum 5 :)

Pineapple Express is very good
crime-comedy about two guys (stoner and his drug dealer)
running for their lives as they are being chased by
local drug boss and corrupted woman cop who killed some
Asian guy (member of Asian drug dealers clan) because
stoner guy witnessed that... Whole movie is filled with
funny scenes, pretty good characters and good story for
a comedy... Pineapple Express will get very good 4 from
me and you should definitely check it out :)

Eagle Eye is just another average action
movie with lots of effects, explosions, car chasing and
everything else action movies today are stuffed with...
And just like most of other actions Eagle Eye has pretty
lame plot with many already seen ideas (big and extra
smart central computer takes control over human lives,
planned conspiracy with president of USA as the ultimate
target, scaring the s*it out of people that watch movie
with terrorists from Middle East and seeing that you can
be followed anywhere anytime without knowing it,
etc...)... As i said, Eagle Eye is just average action
thriller and i am giving it 2.5 out of maximum 5...

After watching Death Race from 2008 i was
satisfied with what i got... Just like it's name says
this movie offers lots of action, races with weapons
attached to cars, preparations between races, evil
prison warden behind huge conspiracy, etc... If you like
races and action movies i think you'll love this one.
I'll rate it 3.5 out
of maximum 5 which means it's good movie, worth
watching, and that you can return to it after some time
again and find it entertaining.
