Watched a couple of films on Netflix this week :
War Machine ( Netflix latest shoot em up blockbuster )
Alan Ritchson ( Jack Reacher ) plays a US Ranger, who along with his troop, come across an alien that looks a lot like a Transformer, whilst out on a training exercise in the hills,
Lots of fighting, lots of big guns, lots of explosions and perfect for a weekend film, that requires no thinking and a few beers.
The Voyage of the Demeter. ( not a Netflix film )
I had high hopes for this one, as I really like Gothic Horror films, when they`re done right, but sadly this one was let down by some woeful CGI, that let the whole film down.
A fresh take on the Dracula genre, focusing on the crew of the ship ( the Demter ) used to transport him from Bulgaria to Whitby.
Really good cast, great sets, very atmospheric and the tension is built up very well, as the crew realise they`re in a battle not only for their lives, but from stopping the ship getting ashore.
But and it`s a big BUT, the film is completely let down, by the CGI almost rubber, Gollum like Dracula.
I actually laughed when he first appeared, it was that bad !
