H222G981 Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 I've yet to watch it. I plan on renting it. Have you seen it yet? Quote
Shin Mefilas Posted October 16, 2015 Author Posted October 16, 2015 It has literally just arrived on my doorstep will start watching it in a sec. I have tried to avoid review but I checked up on Obscurus Lupa's site to see what she thought (she's a big Tremors fan). I skipped spoilers. She seemed happy with the film. Will post review as soon as I'm finished. Quote

Shin Mefilas Posted October 16, 2015 Author Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) Ok so I've watched the movie, here a short review with minor spoilers. On the whole I enjoyed the movie. Its different but still the same, like a food you eat all the time but with a different sauce on top. The best character is still Burt Gummer still played by Michael Gross. He's older but it feels like not time has passed and his performance is just as entertaining as it was 11 years ago. Burt's wingman for this film is Travis Welker (Jamie Kennedy) he can be annoying at times but he has his moments and he can be funny. Fortunately he doesn't brake the movie, like him or hate him but he shouldn't ruin your experience. The rest of the cast are good or ok, none else is particularly annoying. The story takes place in Africa and the creatures their hunting are a sub-species of those found in the other movies. So same creatures, different flavor. I liked this idea and the new designs are cool. Unfortunately there are no practical monster effects in the film. However it makes up for it with the best CGI the series has ever had. The overall production values for the movie are about somewhere in between those of the first and second movie. This isn't really my area of expertise so you'll have to judge for yourself. On the whole its a good movie, rating it I'd say it's about as good as Tremors 2. Both movies are good but aren't on the same level as the first. They also excel and fall short in different ways. Honestly this movie is way better then I expected it to be, the fact that I can call it as good as 2 is shocking. Also I've always given this franchise credit for never losing itself. Its had its highs and lows but its spirit, even after all this time, is still intack. Edited October 16, 2015 by Prometheus Guyver 1 Quote
