The Crazies: Movie Review

So, Yesterday I went and saw the movie The Crazies.


If you do not know what the movie is about, here is a brief summary.
As a toxin begins to turn the residents of Ogden Marsh, Iowa into violent psychopaths, sheriff David Dutton (Olyphant) tries to make sense of the situation while he, his wife (Mitchell), and two other unaffected townspeople band together in a fight for survival.

This movie was actually a remake, but I did not see the original. I will talk to a friend of mine to see if he has it so then I can give you the review of the old one.

In The Crazies, the movie started off pretty slow, giving you a vivid background of the town. As soon as the first sign of the outbreak, the movie took off. There was no lack of action in this movie once it got started. During the climax of this movie, all of the jump scenes were totally predictable. The soundtrack gave all of them away. Also, the ending [of which I will not say] made me mad.

Overall, the movie was good, though it could have been much better. I give this movie a 7/10.

Movie Prediction for 2010

I honestly believe that 2010 will be a great year for movies. So far, I have seen multiple previews for movies that I would go and wait in line for to go see opening day. For me, that is saying a lot. I think that the movie industries are finally learning what people want to see. It's a shame that it took them this long.

Below I have made a short list of films I have high expectations for.


Alice In Wonderland



Get Him To Greek




Hot Tub Time Machine
