Some Japanese guys are in a prison.
I have no idea what’s going on with this, but after nearly a half an hour I’m just going to give up.

A guy, trying to finally pull his life together, has it ruined by a woman who forces him into fatherhood.
Very funny, but ultimately dark as hell.
- Properly titled Clerks II

The woman in the poster is in the movie. I assume they photoshopped some cracker onto her.

While the primary fleet is away, fresh-recruits are sent to investigate a distress call from an allied planet.
A reboot and alternate-timeline of the series. It’s “good”, but is also the bubblegum one ought to expect these days.

A prince struggles to avenge his father and free his country.
While watchable, it’s not particularly impressive. It’s not that it’s old, or B-movie or anything like that. It’s reasonable, but feels, somehow, “poor”. Not poor as in bad, but poor as in without wealth. It’s simple. Other than that, I have no complaints other than the lead character has a thick German accent. Like seriously thick. Like what the fuck were you thinking, thick. It’s like The 13th Warrior – (1999 movie) which had one guy with a crazy Irish accent.

A story about a man being a man.
A man, like all men, must “man up” instead of showing weakness. Not allowed to talk about his feelings, or ask for help, he is never diagnosed with mental disorders. When his wife dies, he is never offered and can’t seek counselling. When he spirals into depression he cannot talk about it or seek help. When his disorders flare up, he again cannot ask for help. His bills unpaid, he’s still required to suffer quietly until he is driven to suicide or is thrown into the streets. He can’t even talk to his family. He is a man who must be a man.
A movie with no characters, no plot and no purpose. Though I wonder if it intended it, this movie supremely highlights the silent suffering men live with.
 Terrible photoshopping

A brainwashed daughter and her manipulative mother practice a con to satisfy their hypergamy, but love gets in the way.
Mediocre, but worth a watch if you’re fairly interested. It has some moments, but it’s got a kind of campy attitude. While it has a plot, it hand-waves plot-critical character decisions. For me, this wasn’t even a bubblegum-movie. It hurt my brain to sit through it, and only the blistering hotness of Jennifer Love Hewitt could keep me interested.

A comedic commentary of Aeon Flux – (2005 movie).
Although amusing and with a few laugh-out-loud moments, this is mostly a waste of time. The RiffTrax concept might be nice for either fans or haters of a film, but this RiffTrax of this movie was not particularly entertaining to me. I’ll likely get into other RiffTrax’s later, so perhaps my opinion will change, but for now I don’t recommend this.

(on Wikipedia) (Summarizing it would spoil it.) Adorable and heartbreaking, this was one of the first if not the first short film which got me interested in this sub-genre.
Entertainment > Movies > (on Wikipedia) In a ruined world, the last remaining city is revealed to be populated by clones, the need of which the lead scientist hopes to cure but his brother works to persist. Overall a decent flick, but with great music that quickly becomes over-the-top with its loud pervasiveness. It starts strong, but its big ending action sequence looks cheesy as all hell. I can tentatively say I like this movie. I have, after all, seen it multiple times. Something in me is saddened somehow, as though this movie should have been better but I can’t put my finger on it. I’m not familiar with its source material, but I expect those who are would have more grounds to find fault with this movie.
Entertainment > Movies > (on Wikipedia) A death in Antarctica spurs an investigation that leads to a murder mystery over lost Soviet-era cannisters. Decent enough to recommend for a watch, but as I’ve seen three times now I can say that it’s a forgettable movie save for Kate Beckensale being hot.
