Video Game Review — Assassin’s Creed: Revelations — Glitchfest
Assassin’s Creed: Revelations (2011, PS3)
With the previous game in the series, Brotherhood, being the best one so far, Revelations has a lot to live up to. Unfortunately, the game does in fact live up to the standard its predecessor set for it — and that’s not a good thing.
Revelations is a virtual remake of Brotherhood, right down to the renovation gimmick. Throw in some useless tower defense garbage and you have a sequel that exists to tie up story threads that date back to the first game . . . if you can force yourself to trudge through a plot that is confusing (aren’t they all at this point?) and completely boring.
Another reason to not like this game: the gamebreaking glitch that results when trying to play one of the optional quests. This enough to knock a whole star off the final rating. Gamebreaking glitches are bullshit. These companies need to test their product before putting it on the store shelves. I don’t pay to test games for them.
What’s good about Revelations?
I never have to play it again.

Movie Review — Supernatural Activity — Better Than What It Spoofs
Supernatural Activity (2012, 90 minutes)
I don’t do comedies, but when I do, I do parodies. This one in particular spoofs the found footage genre and those stupid-ass ghost hunting shows.
The comedy hits the mark about 70% of the time, which is great for a contemporary movie. However, the shit got old near the end, but luckily it ended before I wanted to throw a bucket through my television screen.
Supernatural Activity is better than it has any right to be and is better than the majority of the genres it lampoons. There — I’m out of synonyms for “parody.” End review.

Movie Review — Star Trek Into Darkness — Um. So Where’s The Real Movie?
Star Trek Into Darkness (2013, 133 minutes)
The first Star Trek movie — well, the prequel to this one — kept me smiling the entire time I watched it. Into Darkness did not. In fact, I’m still waiting for the real movie because what we got seems like a test run.
There are plot twists which are predictable. There are homages to the much superior Wrath Of Kahn. There’s pisspoor acting. Loud sound effects. Special effects that really aren’t that special.
Star Trek Into Darkness is an undisputed failure. It’s mildly entertaining and majorly disappointing.
**1/2 out of **** (compared to the ***1/2 I gave to its predecessor)
Here’s what I think of the Star Trek movie series as a whole using my star scale:
Star Trek: The Motion Picture — **3/4 out of ****
Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Kahn — ***3/4 out of ****
Star Trek III: The Search For Spock — ***1/4 out of ****
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home — *** out of ****
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier — ***1/2 out of ****
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country — ***1/4 out of ****
Star Trek: Generations — *** out of ****
Star Trek: First Contact — *** out of ****
Star Trek: Insurrection — **1/2 out of ****
Star Trek: Nemesis — **3/4 out of ****
Star Trek — ***1/2 out of ****
Star Trek Into Darkness — **1/2 out of ****
Movie Review — Iron Man 3 — Best Of The Trilogy
Iron Man 3 (2013, 130 minutes)
I wasn’t a huge fan of the first Iron Man and even less of a fan of the second. Those two didn’t wow me. This third one . . . wow.
Picking up from The Avengers, Tony Stark is a hot mess. He’s suffering panic attacks from his ordeal in Avengers, he’s getting his ass kicked left and right by some guy called The Mandarin, and his ex-chauffeur needs to lose some weight. All in all, a typical week for Metalhead.
This movie entertains pure and simple. There are few groan-inducing moments (one involving breathing fire), but it’s a popcorn movie that scores on all fronts from visual excellence to bang-for-your-buck excitement. Highly recommended!
***1/4 out of ****
