Saints Row: The Third (2011 Video Game)
7/10
A mixture of LSD and GTA
13 September 2013
Saints Row the Third was a bizarre video gaming experience. From playing as a toilet to throwing a fart in a can, its a blast. I've never played a Saints Row game before and my only knowledge of this game that it was a GTA clone. This is a true statement, the game doesn't even attempt to do that much different from it. However, grabbing a giant D**do bat and just wailing people with was extremely fun for my inner child. And honestly thats why people play games in the first place, to have fun. The story was fun to follow and the story missions always came up with something fresh. I enjoyed playing in a computer simulation and mars. While the story was fun to play, it finished way too soon. Plus, once the game finishes there isn't much to do. All you can do is to play a limited selection of mini games or blow random sh*t up. These two things get very boring after a while. All in all, this was a very enjoyable game. The silliness and graphics were top notch while the story was entertaining. The game isn't for everyone, but if you want to play just purely for fun then I highly recommend this game.

2 Guns (2013)
4/10
Dull for a Denzel Washington movie
7 September 2013
Now I adore Denzel Washington. And I generally like Mark Wahlberg. But this movie was pretty dull for an action movie. There are a lot of problems with this movie such as Paula Pattons disgraceful acting or dull action scenes. The plot of Mark Wahlberg and Denzel Washington being undercover cops was interesting for like ten minutes before it dissolves into mediocrity. A cliché ridden script doesn't help, a viewer can guess out the end early on. Denzel Washington does a good job here, though. It seems he realized his role and gives a bit of a gravitas to it. The 'Russian Roulette' scenes were entertaining and a bit menacing. Mark Wahlberg does a generally good job here. But the movie misses where it most needed to hit. Paula Patton is probably the most annoying thing here. Once you get over the fact that she's hot, you cringe every time she walks in. This is just not a good action movie. It isn't even a decent popcorn flick. It's just a waste of time. 4/10
