The whole extra Expendables thing in this review seems to have been thrown in just to rub salt in the wound. And to further aggrvate said wound, You went on how awesome Piranha 3D movie was because it showed some skin.
So instead of a review we got Bob saying what makes even a bad move good is some boobs. Which came off kind of cheesy or creepy or even both. Its like Roger Egbert saying he liked it because he saw some mammaries. Im a red blooded male just like all the other males, and I like my fair share of boobs, but boobs on something that is awful doesn't make it better. It just is awful with boobs.
What I would of liked is for Bob to have commented how this is a remake of the first movie. The first was produced by Roger Corman who made a name for himself by making B-movies. The sequel Piranha 2: The Spawning was James Cameron's first time directing, thus his debut. How Richard Dreyfuss makes a cameo as the character he played in Jaws, in which the first Piranha was a parody of. This is all info that was be interesting in a review, not like how bob told us how much of a man he is with his love of boobs.
Though the it on Centurion does make for a better review that his past ones. Why couldn't he do stuff like that but better normally.
This is usually my reasoning for not watching any movie that tries to bank on the hotness of their star or to people who tell me to watch a movie that shows some skin.MelasZepheos said:

You didn't sell me on Piranhas, despite your praise. But I've never heard of Centurion, and that actually appeals to me.
So, thanks for that =)

Not sure if this was brough up but wasn't Inglorious Basterds released last August? Cuz that was awesome! Centurion looks pretty interesting.
says it better than i could, especially the "the jokes on all of us, but I feel you may be slipping down that slope where you realize that professional internet trolling scores more hits than being a professional reviewer" I think we should vote with our clicks n boycott til he sorts his act outsnowfox said:
I'd disagree with the comment about the Expendables "Y'know what would have made this work? If one of the guys had been a monkey. You know I'm right", as there's already a monkey - haven't you seen Sly Stallone lately? He's just the most monkeylike of a cast of quite apish characters.
I couldn't even finish the review, sorry, but the introduction was already such bullshit.
I liked the Expendables, and usually I prefer high-brow. but Along with the A-team, the Expendables does a good job of bringing the 90's action movie genre back. it was entertaining as hell, and it had a high production value. Piranhas, however, lacks all of that, if you want to see a movie that is bad because it can be bad, that's the movie to go to.
Bob, missing the mark once again.
Also, it would be nice if you grow a bit in what Genres you watch, I mean, horror flicks, super hero movies, doomsday films, over the top action flicks, and some comedy, preferably animated comedy. these are childrens/teenager movie preferences.

Alright we get it Bob you are a hetrosexual, you like women, now can we please get some actual critisism the film like why it's good or bad using examples from the film? I'm getting sick of Bob just telling us to see a film I need to know why I should see it. And seriously he insults us for liking a silly throwback to action films while gushing over a silly throwback to creature features, bias much?
They took an insult personally from someone you have never met. Now that is something to criticize.Axolotl said:
Honestly piranha 3d being watchable shocked me.
Ok, Bob. WHAT THE FUCK? The Descent is an excellent movie? Did I miss something. That piece of garbage was as boring and unimaginative as anything could get. Also the actors were horrible.
Expendables was good, it had blood, some cool death scenes and that's it. Probably on the same level as Piranha.
But then again you also thought Avatar was a good movie. Usually your opinions are along the same lines as mine, but I swear in the last few weeks that seems different (The Hills Have Eyes is good? Seriously?).

I know I will. I've signed up here just to say I used to be a big fan of Bob's but to be frank, there are plenty other internet reviewers (Spoony, Cinema Snob, etc.) to spend my time on that don't come across as bitter, sexist hypocrites.Mr Ink 5000 said:
Have fun doing what you're doing Bob, because it won't last, especially if you manage to drive away the rest of your fanbase.
The perving's starting to get a bit old, MovieBob. There was a time when people referred to this sort of thing as "exploitation". It's cynical and frankly a bit disturbing, especially (as a previous commenter mentioned) when the aforementioned hot girl then gets killed in a grisly way. I'm not certain if we're meant to cheer on the death of the girl we were just aroused by (or worse, if we're meant to be aroused by her death), but that seems to be just the Pavlovian response these sorts of films are trying to program into us. B-Movie or not, this is creepy.
I've been excited about "Centurion" since I saw the preview at the theater (can't even remember which movie it was I was going to see when I saw the trailer), but I've been disappointed by the lack of advertising for it. I expect it'll probably do quite poorly at the theater, which makes me sad, because I love historical adventure movies.
