Peacemaker (1990)
Why I enjoyed Peacemaker
This movie was one of the more fun ones that I've seen in a while. There isn't 2 minutes that go by without explosions, gunshots, car chases, and other fun treats. Peacemaker is a movie that, when you first start watching, you think will be a big waste of time. Nope, just the opposite. This movie is packed with testosterone pumped fun. After about a minute, when the action started to pick up, I knew already that this wasn't going to be your average, boring B-movie. Yep, it is a B-movie, but even though the plot is hokey, it manages to pull out a few twists and turns that keeps you guessing who the hero is, and more importantly, it keeps you interested. One of the only flaws is bad dialogue, with some corny one-liners and such. But, I suggest that if you spot this at your video rental store on a Friday night, and you're in the mood for some fast-paced action scenes, go for it.
Tammy and the T-Rex (1994)
Remember, the T is for Terrible!
Wow. This was one crappy movie if I've ever seen one. Lousy plot was the culprit for this bad B-movie. Anybody who's read the plot summary, "Teenager's brain gets stolen by mad scientist, brain is placed in mechanical dinosaur" should pretty much be able to figure out for themselves that it isn't worth renting. How this received the rating it did boggles me, it is packed with profanity, buckets of blood and gore, and even a bit of sex. I especially enjoyed the cheezed up SFX and editing. The acting was, well, up to par as far as B-movies go, Denise Richards is fun to watch, but the best actor is probably the foam-rubber dino. There was no helping this one, the script was just plain sad. Well, all in all, it's not worth shelling out four bucks to rent. But hey, if it's 3:00 AM and it's on the USA network, you might as well watch. I did, after all.
