“The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)” movie review.

“The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies” feels less like a movie and more like the third act of a movie, being almost entirely based around a single awesome battle. You might find it to be shallow...because it is...but it's certainly not 'slow'.

Stephen Chow's "Journey to the West" is awesome.

"Young Detective Dee: Rise of the Sea Dragon" provided quality entertainment, seducing its audience with a never-ending stream of special effects, kung fu and suspense. But wave goodbye to anything resembling substance, because this prequel only offers eye candy.

"Dragon Tiger Gate" enflamed my wrath not because it's terrible (it's not), but because it tricked me into thinking that I would be entertained. The first act is pretty awesome, but just as you let its warmth wash over you, the second act arrives and it's numbingly cold...and then the third act drenches you with piss and semen.

"Scorpion Thunderbolt" is so insane that you begin wondering if the movie is perfectly normal and you are the one who is insane. After all, anyone who would watch the flick in its entirety must have a broken mind...

But those who understand my tastes know that I'm tired of the ordinary, conventional flicks that take no risks, so "Forbidden City Cop" immediately got into my pants with its strangeness. But the unique fight scenes and hilarious comedic antics seduced me into a satisfying relationship.

"In the Name of the King 3" is a step up from its predecessor on a technical level, but it's still a full fleet up stairs short of being good...or even tolerable...Worse, it had nothing I could even laugh at. IT'S SO BORING!

"Dragonball Z: Battle of Gods" continuously made me smile, even when it continuously was making missteps that would usually annoy me.

"Dragonball Z: Wrath of the Dragon" is... different, and not in the way that "Fusion Reborn" was different- where it felt like the filmmakers were subtly adapting a 'Goku x Vegeta' slash fanfiction while tripping out on drugs. This one just has different priorities, toning down fighting for the sake of fleshing out and developing its primary character.

Yet...while the road to enjoying "Fusion Reborn" had a bumpy start, I ended up having a blast with this serial film. It's so...it's so freaking weird! And gay! And weird! But I began to love its gay weirdness. This might even be my personal favorite DBZ flick, even if it's not the best.
