Sometimes I disagree with Foy but his review is pretty much exactly what I thought of this one. After Tunnel Rats I was very curious to what the Doctor's next original movie would be. I have to say, this guy is going to be taken seriously sooner or later. Look at the progress he's made. From an atrocious zombie move to a genuinely funny spoof and a tight little thriller in about 7 years. Of course I like him more than most people (his Dungeon Siege movie is still one of my favorites. Burt Fuckin' Reynolds, people!) but you honestly can't deny he's moved up.
Tunnel Rats got yanked from Netflix instant fairly quickly so if your interested, check it out. Just don't bother with Seed. Ugh. |

| The fact that the same person was behind both Rampage and Seed blows my mind. I enjoyed this one quite a bit. |

| I watched Alone in the Dark and Bloodrayne and laughed all the way through both with my buddies 'cause they were so Godawful. I haven't bothered with Uwe Boll since but I just rented this one because it sounds like a more relevant Falling Down and I just might enjoy it. |

| It was a cool heist flick. Nothing I'd watch again but definitely the best thing I've seen from Boll. |

| Postal was a masterpiece. I still haven't seen Tunnel Rats, although I've meant to. And this is the first I've heard of Rampage. |

Yeah, I only heard of it one or twice, but definitely check it out. If you liked Postal you'll see some dark humor in this one also. The whole coffee shop scene(s) had me smirking. |

The coffee shop scene is like this idea I've had for several years for a series of horror shorts that I'd call situational horror. I think they'd be really cool and horror fans would enjoy them because they'd be brutal but alas I have no camera and no money. |

I may have to give this a chance then based on your recommendation. It's been getting good reviews across the board. Who knew Boll was a work in progress, right?

| I'm rooting for him. Who knows, maybe in another 30 years, we'll be seeing him get some kind of awards recognition. How fucking surreal would that be? |

So if David DeCoteau got it you'd really flip your shit. |

| Postal is still my absolute favorite of Boll's films but this was much better than it had any right being. |

I have yet to see a Boll movie I didn't enjoy for one reason or another...well, except Alone in the Dark. I can't wait to see this...Postal was awesome, Tunnel Rats was a nice surprise and even Far Cry was enjoyable as a B grade action flick.
And In the Name of the King....Ray Liotta...The most awesomely over the top performance ever... |

| Finally Watched Rampage last night and I have to say it was actually a pretty good movie. The first 20 minutes or so was awkward at times, but once it kicked it, it was entertaining as hell...and the ending was pretty cool also...can I say I am actually looking forward to Stoic and Darfur because they might actually be good movies? |
