Saw an advance screening.
If Conan's writers sat down with the writers from Dune (for the Sci-Fi Channel) sat down with L. Ron Hubbard while he was writing Battlefield Earth, this is what they would have written. Basically, an unbeatable badass fights across a futuristic setting, and everything in the plot is kept very basic.
The plot is thin. It doesn't matter; the thin plot is intentional. This is an action film; it's not meant to make you go home and think about your life, it's not meant to make you a better person, it's not going to make you sad, it's entertainment for entertainment's sake.
This wasn't half bad, and going in with the low expectations, I came out really, really happy. Put otherwise, if they make a third, I'll be there.

Bruce Campbell thinks he's Elvis, with a black man who thinks he's JFK, fighting an evil mummy named Bubba Ho-Tep, who is sucking the souls out of the people at the senior center they live in.
It just sounds terrible. Which is all the more reason to see it.

This was hailed as a fictional documentary of a night in the rave/party scene. The party sequences are fun, but if you have no experience with raves, the best parts of the movie are somewhat missed. If you do have experience with raves, I feel that Human Traffic is a better movie.
My main gripe with this movie is the fast-paced character development doesn't really leave you caring about the characters; other than that, the movie is good enough to hold interest.
