Question: _ soldier _ is hands down one of the worst movies a person could ever have to sit through that does n't have jean claude van damme in it .
i could liken it to
the sci - fi cheese that was the hollywood product - of - choice back in the early 80s , but that would be too much of a compliment .
if there is a movie theater in hell , this film is playing there 24 hours a day .
the story , such that there is , revolves around todd ( kurt russell ) , an automaton of a man who has been raised from birth to be a merciless soldier in a not - too - distant ultra - conservative future ( is there any other kind ? )
after years of desensitization at a military academy full of other boys just like him , todd becomes a ground fighter in a series of wars all over the galaxy . who the enemies in these wars are is never revealed , but the few glimpses of todd in battle show that it does n't matter , because innocent hostages are wiped out as indifferently as the bad guys .
after ten minutes of this nihilistic trash --
yes folks , there 's more
-- we see todd as a buff , scarred adult , now so accustomed to the carnage that no confrontation at all causes him to break a sweat .
there 's a new wrinkle , though .
todd and his brethren are declared obsolete , and a new batch of soldiers takes their place .
after losing a sanctioned battle with _ dragon _ 's jason scott lee , the seemingly dead todd is dumped by a flying ice - cube tray
( well , that 's what is looked like ) on a remote garbage planet .
if you predict that todd meets a bunch of outcast settlers on this planet , and that they band together to fight a bunch of bad guys coming to destroy them , you 're way ahead of the game .
the renegade society on this trash heap is so clich you half - expect tina turner and master blaster to come strolling into frame any minute .
it 's surprising that _ soldier _ is the brain - child of _ blade runner _ co - writer david webb peoples .
unlike that mind - twisting classic , this film contains just barely enough dialogue to fill about three double - spaced pages .
add into the mix the _ mortal kombat _ 's paul anderson inept direction , and
it 's easy to see how _ soldier _ turned out so bad . and the special effects !
remember the flying steam irons in hardware wars ?
gary busey is in this movie .
'nuff said .
_
soldier _ is proof that hollywood still has plenty of bad ideas sitting in its script vaults .
that this sad film made it to the silver screen should encourage plenty of aspiring screenwriters out there that there is hope after all .
now if you 'll excuse me , i have to go weep for the future .

Question: close your eyes for a moment , if you will , and imagine the sound of stephen rea 's gaelic brogue , silky smooth and irish like a pint of guinness .
a lackadaisical , naughty little schoolboy voice that flirts and gambols .
an acerbic , sing - song metered voice that evokes the startling imagery and language of anthony burgess '
" a clockwork orange .
"
a voice that deliciously conjures scenes both porcine and puerile , like those out of " delicatessen , " or " the tin drum .
" imagine all of that , and you 'll get a good sense of what you can expect from " the butcher boy .
" imagine that and more .
neil jordan 's latest film " stars " rea in more ways than one .
rea ,
the accomplished irish actor most notable from his star turn in jordan 's " the crying game ,
" contributes a restrained and managed performance as da brady , a small town drunk in an unnamed irish community in the 1960s .
but it 's his wall - to - wall narration as the butcher boy of the title
, da brady 's son , francis , that makes rea 's " performance " worth watching , worth listening to .
and that 's only half the fun .
playing the young francie
brady is newcomer eamonn owens and he is , without a doubt , a revelation
. for as much as rea 's voiceover permeates almost every scene of " the butcher boy , " owens commands virtually every frame .
it 's impossible to take your eyes off him .
with his crop of carrot - colored hair , ruddy complexion , and overall grubby appearance , francie brady is an unlikely hero , refusing to be done in by his alcoholic , trumpet - playing father , his depressive , suicidal mother , or the neighboring , bespectacled monster known as mrs .
nugent ( fiona shaw ) .
in fact , everything was ok until " the nugent " came to town .
now , she poses as much a threat to the safety and security of town bully francie and his best pal joe ( alan boyle ) as the looming commie menace ( " the butcher boy " is set at a time when the fear of nuclear obliteration is first and foremost in the minds of many ) .
" pigs !
" screams mrs .
nugent at the brady menagerie .
"
you 're all pigs !
"
it 's the start of many a related image .
after ma brady is shipped off to the " garage " for psychiatric observation and da brady downs one bottle of whiskey too many , francie finally loses grip of his fantasy world of cowboys and indians , the lone ranger , and other comicbook characters .
squealing like a stuck pig , francie does " the likes o ' that " on the nugent 's living room floor , and is himself whisked away to a very catholic remand home for " boney arsed bogmen , " where his ever fertile imagination -- and clever chicanery -- runneth over .
director jordan 's vivid treatment of pat mccabe 's nightmare novel produces a sometimes disturbing , dark comedy littered with surreal touches ( such as sin ?
ad o'connor playing the virgin mary ) .
it 's not as outlandish as the trailers make out ; instead , this remarkable film focuses on the effects external influences have on the friendship between two boys ( schoolboy chums in real life ) , allowing us to empathize with their plight in the presence of extraordinary behavior .
it 's bleak and it 's black
but it 's fundamentally very funny
.
rea talks us through it , beautifully , and owens drags us though it ,
admirably
, and , in tandem with jordan 's sure hand , theirs are contributions to make " the butcher boy " a film worth savoring .

Question: review-
peter jackson 's the frighteners has received some notice for setting the record for most computer effects ever in a movie , and still coming in at the extremely cheap $ 30 million price tag .
but for those who were dismayed by this year 's blockbusters like twister and independence day , the frighteners has much more to offer than special effects .
and for those worried wether or not peter jackson would compromise to hollywood you can rest easily .
the frighteners is as far removed from hollywood as a high - profile movie can get .
michael j. fox stars as frank bannister , a con artist who can speak to ghosts .
he uses this ability to set up a scam in a small town where his ghost buddies scare the hell out of people , then he comes and pretends to get rid of them .
this is how he has made a living ever since his wife died in a car crash 5 years ago .
frank 's latest customers are a young couple , played by trini alvarado and peter dobson .
when dobson ends up dead , alvarado starts to take an interest in fox .
but dobson 's spirit is still around as he refuses to beleive
he 's dead .
this leads to a very awkward and amusing dinner date between fox and alvarado , with dobson tagging along as a ghost .
things start getting complicated for fox when he is accused for a series of murders taking place in the town .
fox sees someone named the soul collector crushing the heart of the victims , but noone else can see that .
so when fox shows up to try and save each victim , naturally people suspect he is the killer .
fox sees that alvarado is next on the soul collector 's hit list , and the last half hour of the movie deals with fox 's attempts to save her from this evil spirit .
there are many wonderful twists and turns in the screenplay written by peter jackson and frances walsh .
the movie starts off as a black comedy , and ends up a horror - action film .
the mix between these genres are perfect .
no laughs are sacrificed in the name of horror , and vice versa .
one point of contention might be a lackluster score by danny elfman .
but that hardly seems like a flaw when you have such a diverse cast all in top form .
michael
j. fox delivers one of his best performances to date as a man who hides the sorrow of his wife 's death , and then is forced to confront this later on .
alvarado , looking like andie macdowell , makes a great frightened , tough , and smart heroine .
and jeffery combs , as a paranoid fbi agent , is brilliantly bizaare .
the frighteners never once feels like it is running long .
the first hour is as funny as any comedy this year , and the last half hour is as thrilling as any of the big budget blockbusters .
this movie is probably what casper would 've looked like if david lynch directed it .
it 's easily the best film of the year , so far .
