AWEFUL review. But at the same time, despite the lapses of logic, and you not really saying anything constructive one way or another, and despite the fact that I dont even know if you would recommend going to see this - I kind of liked it.

You never felt BAD about seeing a trashy flick at a drive in! You reveled in it and ate up that bad pizza, awesome popcorn and watched the kitties and puppies (and maybe a show about train safety) before the next 'showtime'. My favorite double feature was CLASH OF THE TITANS and TRON. That was an awesome night!

NOTHING original about it. Trying to defend it as homage is futile. It is never as good as the movies it tries to be. Not even close. OK, the gore is well done... other than that? Nothing here to like, at all.

I re-read that thing about five times, and I'm still not sure what Harry was driving at... is there something wrong with me? What did he mean...?

But I do wish Harry would stop talking about politics... it's painfully obvious how little he knows or understands the subject, its embarrassing... and a bit jarring. Don't we get enough of Hollywood trying to influence political though that we don't need watered-down, third-hand borrowed opinions? He can say what he wants, its his site... but its a little off putting... Smash Bros!

Seriously. This character that you're playing, Harry Knowles the overly giddy big kid who gets to play in the Hollywood sandbox, it's really getting old. And I'm sure on some level it's a part of you, maybe even a big part. But the things you say are getting absolutely incomprehensible and after like 90 stories worth of it it's a bit much. You are after all an adult, and you seem like a pretty smart guy so I doubt that you are anything less than self aware of the image you perpetrate. On that level it seems like you're doing a bit of posing. The catch phrase induced reviews....posing. The always giddy at a level of 10 no matter what attitude...posing. One of two things here is true, either you're doing it on purpose, or you care so little about film that you can't even be bothered to take it the least bit seriously. You used to be passionate about cinema, now it seems the only thing you're passionate about is being passionate as you just fire your exuberance randomly at whatever is in the crosshairs at any given time. And yeah I know it's a review for a fucking Neil Marshall film, but I'm talking in general. This review could literally be about any genre film. Cause even know the film is "bugnuts", you seem to think so little about it that you can write a page long review and never once say anything even remotely relevant. All I can assume is that you really and truly don't fucking care other than you respect it's existence as a studio film. And man if that's the best you can come up with then just spare us the frivolity.

This movie wanted to be hot shit on a silver platter, but it's merely a cold turd on a paper plate. The only good thing about it was Rhona Mitra's spendid ass. If I could combine that ass, Carla Gugino's tits...

was that the film is bugnuts (whatever the fuck that is) and Harry enjoys digging up fresh dead people to violate. Even when Harry doesn't like a film now, he can't give it a nasty review.

When I saw the trailer...
by thedarklinglord
Mar 19th, 2008
05:18:55 AM
I had a hard time believing this could be a movie by the same dude who did Dog Soldiers and The Descent. The impression I got from the trailer was: "If movies were people, this is what you'd get if Escape From New York violently sodomized The Road Warrior, and then 28 Days Later came along and felched the load out of Road Warrior's ass and spat it into the yeasty snatch of any of those shitfest tough chick flicks from the last decade like Resident Evil, Ultraviolet, Underworld, Aeon Flux or whatever, and the snowballed goo actually started to grow, but was born premature into a mongoloid monstrosity that burst from the womb in a horrifying Alien-like explosion." And when I SAW the movie, I had to amend my opinion. This piece of shit wasn't built from the genetic material of movies like Escape from New York, The Road Warrior, and 28 Days Later; it was spawned by an incestuous dogpile of the retarded, inbred cousins of those movies. To borrow a line from Futurama: It was so terrible I think it gave me cancer.

...any criticism leveled at this film about the fact that it flagrantly steals from other sources. Tarantino has made an entire career out of even more literal thefts. If you do it well, like he does, and like this appears to, its all good. Like someone else up there pointed out, this looks less like an amalgamation of American 80's trash and more like an amalgamation of 80's italian trash ripping off 80s American trash. I think this might be the first Neil Marshall film I'll go out of my way to catch.

(SPOILERS) I was into this in the beginning, but once they hit Medieval Times theme park, it was just idiotic and incredibly stupid. The scene toward the end with Saul and his minions chasing Mitra was an insult to Road Warrior - a cheap carbon copy of that brilliant film, complete with mohawk idiot screaming and slave tied to front of car. I guess that was the intent, but it rang so hollow.

You'll forget this movie as soon as the credits roll. Although Rhona Mitra was certainly a saving grace. She's got a future.

Just thought I'd give a dissenting opinion. I saw the $6.00 matinee of this on Saturday and I would say that I got at least $6.00 of entertainment out of it. I remember in the 80's when video stores were just starting out. It seemed as if the entire Action section of my local video store back then was filled with every Road Warrior rippoff ever made. And as a young lad of 13, I think I watched all of them one summer. Were they what one would consider "good"? Fuck, no. But they were entertaining, and I had a blast watching them. Doomsday seems, to me, like a combination of all of those riduclous movies mashed into one, then given a 30 Million dollar budget. It's great fun, stupid, but fun! And if after watching the trailer for this movie, you expect it to be anything but stupid fun, then please seek help. Of course it's derivitive, of course it's mindless. Did you really think that Neil Marshall said "I've got an idea that nobody has thought of before, ever, and it's going to make people think long and hard about man's cruelity to man." Of course not. He made a movie that was supposed to be dumb fun and just enough outside of the mainstream of stupid modern action movies (Jason Statham, I'm looking at you!) to feel like a different experience than you usually will find in your local gogolplex. Now if had seen it on a Saturday night and paid $12.00, I might not have enjoyed it as much, but it was $6.00 worth of fun.

All I got from your review is:(1.)This movie is bugnuts (2.)You hate Bush (3.)Doomsday is like salsa, a corpse, and your room.

how is this movie so unpopular on this site? I thought it was fucking amazing. It wasn't tongue-in-cheek-- it was funny. It threw you curves that made sense when you think about them (the knights, for example, were there for a reason and to make a point-- not because Marshall was like 'hey you know what would be hilarious now? Knights!') It gets you to expect an explosion and then does something else entirely. It uses models instead of CGI. It has the most creative violence this side of Nicotero.

And most importantly, it is overflowing with the kind of exuberant filmmaking only someone who actually loves making movies can translate to the screen, which is pretty fucking rare these days. Don't listen to these shitheads... listen to this shithead and check it out.

Harry's Review Checklist

Mar 19th, 2008
09:42:55 AM
Disgusting Bodily Fluid Reference? CHECK

Food reference? CHECK

Deviant Sexual Reference for Shock Value? CHECK

Made-Up descriptive word, oft repeated? CHECK (bugnuts = 4 times)

Little to nothing about the movie itself? CHECK

Attempt to channel Neil Cupmston? CHECK

Not impressing a single other person? DOUBLE CHECK

These reviews are why this site blows now. This kind of review might have been cool when Harry was a punk kid spying his way into closed sets and such, but as a grown, adult man - this kind of juvenile junk is just creepy. No wonder the industry is moving on to other sites. This one has too much of that 'creepy old man' vibe now. Best thing that could happen here is if Harry left it to Moriarty.

And it was a huge disappointment after having seen Neil Marshall's DOG SOLDIERS and THE DESCENT. Personally, having witnessed his previous efforts, I saw something in Marshall's talent that reminded me of a young James Cameron. But I did not see ANY OF THAT TALENT in DOOMSDAY. It felt more like a flick that was rushed together without ANY forethought. It just felt like everyone showed up and the director was like, "Let's try this idea." Terrible movie. I'd give it half a star out of five. And to Neil Marshall, "What the hell were you thinking???"

Series7: thanks brother man. glad somebody else saw the same movie i did.

Everyone else: I'm gonna go one step further out on the limb i didn't even know i was on and say this movie, as well as being fucking amazing, is *not* dumb at all. It is the opposite of dumb. Pulling ideas out of your ass gives you a movie like Transformers, not like this. Doomsday has its source material, sure, but the punks and the knights are more than some random idea or an homage-- they show the two directions a society goes in when confronted with a real end-of-everything crisis. On the one hand you got total anarchy and chaos with Sol and the punks, on the other hand you got Luddite xenophobia and a return to conservative values with Dr Cain and the medieval enclave. But don't forget that Dr Cain and Sol are father and son; could it maybe possibly ya think be that the movie is suggesting these two philosophies are really two sides of the same coin? (Yes, is the answer) Now are those ideas taken to an over-the-top extreme and draped over a shitload of violence and action? You bet your fucking ass they are-- Marshall wants it to be a fun ride, after all. But to call it dumb is to betray yourself as dumb.

If you gotta insist this thing is nothing more than an homage, well then it is as much an homage to the history and culture of the UK as it is an homage to Road Warrior. And for the record, I've never seen Marshall's previous 2 movies and i still dug the living shit out of this one.

Enjoyed the hell outta this film. It's reminded me of those earlier issues of Heavy Metal magazine back when Corben, Druillet and Moebius worked on it. Much better Grindhouse film than Grindhouse! Noahtall, the homage to the Warriors was the chase scene with the Turnbull ACs.
Awesome last paragraph

Mar 19th, 2008
12:02:11 PM
I don't get the cumpston comparison. He goes for the laugh at all (filthy) costs. Harry just really knows how to write about trashy film. If you didn't get a solid impression of what to expect from this film, you might be illiterate, or skipping every other word. That last paragraph was some brilliant writing.

Movie mashups are more entertaining then remakes
by Reel American Hero

I'd rather pay my $ 8.50 to see a movie that's a little bit of this, and a little bit of that with a dash of whatever than a remake of an Asian horror movie or a movie that originally came out less then 20 years ago. Hollywood here's your next concept. Take a little bit of Ghostbusters cross it with Pulp Fiction add a little Evil Dead 2 and then stick that in a blender with The Breakfast Club. And get back to me.

Well, his early stuff. Later NC is sort of like Fat Elvis ... kinda funny but a pale shadow of teh good stuff.

Can't someone take this site away from Harry and give it to someone like Moriarty. Harrys Reviews are obviously useless and e isn't able to do interviews or go to set-visits because he is too fat. All he does is posting news that someone send him per email or other sites published days ago. END IT before its too late.

I thought it was good. More precisely, it was bad in really wonderful ways. However, my son (18) thought it was ridiculous. I think you should love this movie if you're a child of the 80s. If you came afterwards (or are a girl, of course), you'll hate it.

The idea of walling off Scotland is a joke that people over here will latch onto on both sides of the border... Basically its one hell of a tip-off that this movie isn't taking itself at all seriously. Just as well as this is hardly a megabuck pic, $30mil is a decent budget for Marshall, but its piss-all for studio product.

But Harry kind of nailed it. This movie is on crack. It keeps making these insane left turns in the plot every 15 minutes that makes a new movie every little while, so it was pretty entertaining, at least.

Just look on the internet if you really want to know where. I drive up to an hour to see a good double feature at the drive-in. In your car you are free to smoke if you want, and can bring your own food. I just wish they'd get that regardless of what time the sun is -supposed- to be setting, don't start the friggin movie until it's dark outside. I hate missing the first half-hour of a dark movie like LXG.

Sure Tarantino ripped off other Movies for source material (Lady Snowblood=Kill Bill) but it's his dialog that shines.So to some degree he gets a pass.

Doomsday looks too uninspired as it has way too many influences:EFNY,28 Days later,THe warriors and especially the Mad Max stuff.I'll wait till this shit comes out on DVD for rental.

I really don't give a rat's ass what any of you think, but goddammit Spidey 3 is my homeboy. I would equate it to the Lost World; it was great when there was no dancing or crying on frame. Unfortunately, taking that into consideration, it only is about 45% great, but it's pretty irrelevant to really complain at this point. During its good moments, Spidey 3 actually resembled something masterful, while shitfests like FF4 and especially Batman & Robin maintained its stupidity throughout the entire two hours, leaving no semblances of good movie in their wake whatsoever.

Neil Marshall is not a great film director, but he's got just enough 'joi de morte' to pull DOOMSDAY off and make the audience leave the cinema chuckling....The dialogue is DREADFUL, the dramatic direction LEADEN, the costumes DERIVATIVE....etc etc, with lots more capital letters....BUT: somewhere along the line, i started to enjoy this movie....a total mess, and all kinda stapled together out of used parts, but with enough panache to convince you that Marshall had his tongue firmly ensconced in his cheek...see this film stoned or slightly drunk....see this film with friends who know ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, BRONX WARRIORS, MAD MAX, NEW BARBARIANS.....see it on dvd....do whatever...jsut don't take it seriously...and feel slightly worried about the once-promising director of DOG SOLDIERS and THE DESCENT....where to now Neil?...tread carefully.....
