What do your fellow Flickcharters have to say?
kingofpain – “Both movies involve an hero dragging around a chick while killing lots of villains. However, the chick in American Ninja was severely annoying and I’m not a big fan of Michael Dudikoff as an action star. Tom Cruise is a madman in real life, but at least he’s kind of likable as an actor. And even Cameron Diaz is preferable to the girl in American Ninja. I guess that part toward the end when the evil ninja shot a laser at Dudikoff was kind of awesome, and… well, the whole final battle in American Ninja was pretty cool. But Knight and Day was a more tolerable experience overall. Not a whole lot more tolerable, but there were some decent action scenes and attempts at humor.”

malshadow – “I love Tim Burton movies! But Alice was remarkably “not fun”. At least in the ridiculous Disney movie (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice) I felt entertained.”

Limited Release Movies:
From the director of the very solid movie Bronson, comes a vicious looking Viking movie. Watch the trailer, the movie looks gorgeously brutal. It currently is winning 65% of Flickchart battles.
A quasi-sequel to Todd Solondz’s Happiness. I’ve never seen that movie but am aware of its reputation as a comedic and disturbing look at life.
Ronald Reagan called the event this flick is based on, “one of the most important espionage cases of the 20th century.” It’s been playing around festivals and has a 63% win rate on Flickchart right now.
