Music - I'm Designer (UNKLE Remix) by Queens of the Stone Age

     Hello all, it is time for another movie review. I was on my way to the theater today to see Inglourious Basterds, but I was too late to catch that, so I saw 9 instead. I'm going to try and break this down for you without ruining anything.



    First off, the CGI work was as good as it gets, the texture of the puppets skin or whatever they were made of looked damn near real. The characters themselves were all stereotypes (for good reason), but the actors that voiced them were all perfect choices I think. The directing I hate to say was only ok, it could of been much worse though. I'll cut Shane Acker a break though because this was his first full length movie. It was very short given today's standards, but it felt far too long. There were several points which feel as though the movie will end, but it doesn't, and the ending itself left a bit to be desired. The story was decent, nothing too special in this post Terminator and Matrix era.

    All in all I give it 8 1/2 out of 10. With today's ticket prices, you may want to wait for the DVD release, but hard core sci-fi and or visual effects fans will probably want to dish out the $8 for a ticket.

    Well now that that's out of the way I have some new art to show you. I have a few new pieces, but I think I'll just show you one for now. This is my gnome, I may use him in a short comic, if I ever finish writing it that is.


    Anyway that's all the blogging I have for you today, till next time.
