Wedding Crashers (2005)

Another Vince Vaughn movie, this time with Owen Wilson. Christopher Walken also shows up. Hey whats the opposite of Christopher Walken? Ok no I can’t steal jokes from Dragon Ball Z Abridged plus its in bad taste, just like the actions of the men in this movie.

Basically two friends on a yearly quest to take advantage of unsuspecting emotionally vulnerable drunk women go to weddings they are not invited to and attempt to get laid.

Honestly the movie is hilarious, Vince and Owen work well together. Playing two best friends that work together helping settle divorces you cam actually believe (and maybe they do) hang out daily in real life crashing weddings. There are of course rules to such adventures like never leave a fellow crasher behind.

Eventually tho, things go bad. Real bad. While crashing a congressman’s (Christopher Walken) daughters wedding Owen falls for his other daughter hard and attempts to break a rule. He tries to take things into overtime. You have a wedding and a reception to close the deal and he wants to spend the weekend at the lake house.

Vince has other problems. See daughter number three is a “stage 5 virgin clinger” and possibly crazy. Things aren’t always as they appear and this movie has some great twist and turns. Both men also get whats coming to them in the end. The man that passed on the sacred rules of wedding crashing to them is now crashing funerals by the way and that really should be a sequel with Will Ferrell (yes he has a small part here). This movie is a must see. Oh, and before I go the answer to my opening question is Christopher Reeves. Best wishes and may the gaming gods have mercy on my soul.

The Breakup (2006)

This isn’t my usual movie but Vince Vaughn makes me laugh and Jennifer Aniston both makes me laugh and is one of the most beautiful women on Earth. Combine all that and I pretty much have to check it out.

Now lets be honest. Answer this, have you seen a movie with Vince before? If you said yes than you are familiar with his character. He basically plays the same guy in every movie with a new name. Its why most of his fans watch.

He meets Jennifer at a ball game while she is out with her at the time boyfriend and essentially forces a hotdog on her. After the game he then convinces her to hang out. A couple years later they buy a condo together.

Unfortunately while Vince is a hard worker and even owns his own tour guide business in Chicago that is quite successful he isn’t a very attentive boyfriend. He does what he wants and isn’t very considerate. He loves his girlfriend and his friends, he just isn’t the best at showing it.

After a rough dinner is when Jennifer finally has enough and the break up happens. She thinks he will apologize and change his ways. Capitan oblivious however decides he simply won’t move out of the condo and they both start playing 2 separate games. She wants to make him jealous so he will come crawling back, and he wants her to either move out for realise she was wrong. Turns out they are both stupid and the results are funny.

This movie however isn’t your typical romantic comedy with a happy ending. The ending isn’t really sad either. Its not much of anything in fact. You can take it as you want. I enjoyed it and you may too even if its just to see Jennifer’s bear bottom. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Silent Hill (2006)

I am not normally a fan of movies based off video games, tho admittedly I never really got into the Silent Hill games. I’m told the movie is pretty far off, and maybe that is why I am also one of the few people I personally know that seemed to enjoy the movie.

Also interesting is that the Silent Hill town in the movie is based off a real life town called Centralia that I have physically been to well before the movie came out. (Tho the few remaining residents pretty much hate people going there now even more than when I was there) tho if you want some back info on that I will include a link.

Anyway back to the movie itself. Visually for its time it was pretty damn creepy and the sound simply added to that even now. Having never seen pyramid head in the game I get why people were freaked out by the guy. That giant sword cutting through a steel door like it was made of butter is enough to unsettle anyone. The creepy nurses in the basement and their twitchy movements followed by maiming each other was a bit sick to.

The story itself however of a little girl going missing was a bit cliche with mom looking for her and dad looking for them both has pretty much been done to death. It was pretty well done all the same tho all the same.

There are plenty of twist and turns to keep the movie interesting and I enjoyed it. The movie wasn’t perfect and you currently need to pay close attention to it, I’d watch it alone at night personally to get the full feeling of it. Best wishes and my the gaming gods bring you glory.

Worms Battlegrounds PS4

I have played a few worms games in the past so seeing a free one for Novembers free games wasn’t a disappointment for me.

The story mode isn’t bad but mostly seems like a large tutorial getting you used to the games and weapons for the real meat and bones of the game which is online multiplayer. Either build your own clan or join a friends and away you go at killing worms with other worms.

The customization while not tremendous is nice, with plenty of options to toss helmets and funny faces or mask on your murderous worms that you can change the names of. You can also choose the name and emblem of your clan as well. (Feel free to look me up on PS4 the clan is called Savior Gaming and my psn name is Savior699)

The controls take a bit of getting used to and can be a bit clunky but aren’t to bad or even enough to hinder game play enough to matter.

Honestly for $25 its a bit much to pay, for $15 I’d recommend it but for free you should really play this game for a bit and try it out. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Sims 4 Console Preview

The Sims 4 finally comes to console next week and is being advertised as the first time a sims console game will be the same on both PC and console. While I have my doubts there isn’t much longer to wait. The base version releases on the 17th however if you reserve the deluxe version you get to play it 3 days early. I will try to have the review as early next wee as I possibly can, but until then enjoy this launch video.

The Chaperone (2011)

So people have been saying “Hey savior you wrestled a bit, review more wrestler movies” so here we have WWE’s Triple H in The Chaperone.

This movie isn’t great but admittedly it was surprisingly good. Hunter plays a getaway driver attempting to reform himself after 7 years in federal prison after his friend ditched him during a bank robbery. The problem is his kid hates him for leaving her, his wife that struggled to finishing nursing school is still rightfully pissed and people aren’t quick to hire a felon.

While fighting to get back into his daughters good graces he is invited to chaperone a school field trip that falls on the same day his old crew wants him to return to his old life as a getaway driver. At the last minute he chooses the field trip leaving the crew high and dry, which results in a wild chase for money and revenge.

The movie is a fun little movie that is a feel good story for parents to watch with their kids. Adults alone probably will want a more adult centered story but really its a nice compromise between something for the kids and parents. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Doctor Strange ( 2016)

This review will probably get me some crap from Torsten. So let me start out by saying this. The movie is good. I enjoyed it.

The movie looks beautiful. The special effects are some of the best I have seen, and we all know I watch a lot of movies. You guys read about them.

The sounds are probably equal to the visuals. They would have to be. They spent millions on this stuff. Its a blockbuster movie of blockbuster movies really.

There is honestly nothing actually wrong with the movie. It is simply made for people that happen to already be Doctor Strange fans. Its one of the rare occasions the characters origin story probably should have waited until after we knew who he was.

Torsten once described this movie to me as the worlds worst texting and driving public service announcement and really that’s what it is. Basically Steve goes to a party while checking on some surgeries, crashes his car and wrecks his hands. When he wakes up and can’t do surgery anymore he searches Hong Kong for an alleged cure and ends up with magical powers.

That all being said while the movie is good, I do feel it is one of the worst Marvel movies. To be fair tho, that still makes it worth watching. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
