I'm a fan of the entire Halo series and I think Halo: CE revolutionized First Person Shooters. With this particular title, Halo 3: ODST, players do not control Master Chief John as they usually do in most other Halo titles and while I'm a fan of the Master Chief and love playing his role ODST offers a nice break from playing the Chief and allows the series to explore some ground they wouldn't of been able to otherwise. The dark foreboding scenery is great, the story line is good, and it’s a great adventure to play out.

Simply put, one of the most underrated and misunderstood films ever made. It's often dark and complex themes are lost on many, viewers and critics alike. And perhaps that's why so many miss its deeper callings, they're looking for an action movie to be "themed simply" - they don't want to think while watching. Just watch stuff explode and people beat the hell out of each other. But this one you have to watch on a much deeper level to "get it".

It’s ok. Honestly not bad, but one doesn’t want to call it good either. Both Alli Neumann and Sophia Thomalla turn in great performances, and both are lovely too. It could’ve been a cult classic dark humor/secretly socially revenant comment on the human condition movie but I think they tried to do too much, had too many sub plots and unexplained events in it. And it’s choppy. It’s not the worst movie you’ll ever see but I for one was sad for the movie because it could have been something special but it just misses that mark.

It’s a lot of good clean fun. Not a movie that’s going to win awards on the other hand all the actors making their roles believable. My family liked the style - animation “on top of” the live action.

The first season I’d give it five stars, a laugh a minute joy ride yet at the same time giving the viewer a lot to think about. Levin and Scannell are fantastic! Season 2, I’m not sure what happened - i didn’t check if it’s the same writer this year but if it is the magic is gone. The original favor of season 1 is also gone. Season 2, two stars and that’s being generous. So all in all, three stars. Season 2 turned in to sloppy soap opera gobble goop but it actually I found myself distancing myself from the story.

It’s a lot of fun. Liza Shlesinger is delightful, hard-edged, and quite fetching as Spencer’s girlfriend. Alan Arkin was great in his role. And Mr. Wahlberg does come great action scene work as well as cutting his acting chops with style. The story follows a predictable pattern but despite that, with the good performances and witty dialogue it’s still a very enjoyable movie.
