I have always been a long-time Bond fan and have been waiting to see how the whole idea of taking the spy theme in a completely different direction. When XXX the sequel failed to deliver this for me, I felt that it may be an impossible task. This script, for me, has managed to capture the fun, excitement, and adventure known for the Bond-esque films but has gone a different... read

Grade A B Movie Horror

A review of NINJAS vs. ZOMBIES

by that_script_guy on 09/18/2007

I could almost hear "everyone was zombie fighting" being sung as I was reading this. This is a pure example of a fun script. Very inventive and quite possible... though I would wait until a stream of versus movies comes out like Jason vs Freddy II or Aliens vs Predator II. Still, you have to be careful of slight grammatical errors- and they do exist in this script. Also,... read

Everyone was Celtic Fighting!

A review of The Tain (Rev)

by that_script_guy on 08/25/2007

Normally I have no problem reading scripts of "epic" proportion, but this one was a horse of a different color. I am still reeling from a major hangover due to weird formatting which occured mysteriously towards the middle of the script. I felt that this was trying too much to be like 300 or even the opening sequence of Gladiator, or quite possible even Braveheart. At times,... read

WOLFEN LIVES!!!

A review of Winter of the Wolf

by that_script_guy on 08/24/2007

I was just about to give up on this one around the church scene (I caught an image of Wolfen, or was it the Howling-- you know the one that takes place in the church that burns). Anyway by the time I ended, I believed that quite possibly this was a unique take on the whole werewolf story. Well for one thing it takes place around the first world war. I was willing to set aside... read

To Recycle or Not To Recycle

A review of Recyclable

by that_script_guy on 08/22/2007

On one hand I kinda feel sorry for this director. I was put in a similar position during my film school graduation. Desperate for a story with hardly any support. Right off the bat, I basically have nothing against artsy Mini-DV work. So as long as the imagery is the best one can do with their own resources. There was some Spanish during this which I lost because I am lazy... read

My Sediments Exactly

A review of 7 Minutes in Hell

by that_script_guy on 02/19/2007

I have to give both points and props for the first-time director, but as you know, this business can be far, far from forgiving. Firstly, I realize you are on a budget, but I believe you need a better camera (buy or rent), for the viewer's sake if not for the story. For a first-timer's, seven-minute excursion into hell, it really wasn't all that bad, but it was very quite... read

High Plains Drifter II---- DAAAAMMMNNN!

A review of Indestructible (Rev.1)

by that_script_guy on 01/28/2007

I traded up a 165 page opus for this script and it was the best thing I ever did. I am open minded and willing to accept just about anything, but I got just too sick of reading "Halloween" and "scream" cut-outs. This is a western; a western with a twist. We have all the necessary ingredients for a winning movie: a torrid love triangle, a town overrun by the lawless, and... read

Another excellent review

A review of THE ADVOCATE

by that_script_guy on 01/26/2007

If I keep giving away too many of those, people may grow suspicious, or else I just might have a consumer advocate come to my doorstep. I see great potential in this idea if polished up--namely with more dramatic actors. I just felt that the performances could be a little more dramatic considering the material. In one of the initial death sequences, I almost thought that... read

Sci-Fi Office Space For The Thinking Man

A review of The Button Pusher

by that_script_guy on 01/26/2007

You will have to forgive me, but I didn't make it through to the final credits. Not to say that I didn't watch the whole thing (which I did), I just had to make a comment about this magnificant piece of work before I forgot things. Firstly, I didn't know how much money it cost to make this movie (and I probably don't want to know this), but I felt that it could go toe to toe... read

FILM NOIR LIVES AGAIN!!!

A review of Vampir

by that_script_guy on 01/25/2007

Think of a Calvin Klein Obsession commercial on crack, and then think again...and again..and again. Visually stunning, though a bit dark at times hense the noir part of it. If the haunting piano score could be treated as a SAG member, then it would have my vote for best supporting actor. I really think that the story about the dilema that an aging demon of eternity may face... read
