A friend wanted me to write a series of 200 word reviews of the 2011 Movies before and after I saw them for a new Geek site due to launch very soon. The following was the sample I provided to see if he liked my writing style. Lets say, I got the job. The site has been delayed but I thought I would share them in the mean time. I will link the site when it is ready to debut.
The Summer Movies 2011
4/26/11
Fast Five. So begins the summer! In less than one week, the movie roller coaster ride will begin. And, it will be a true roller coaster: full of ups and downs, throw in a few loop-dee-loops and a hard brake at the end.
If the 2011 movie season was a date with a beautiful woman, Fast Five would be the icebreaker; Thor would be the pick up line; Pirates 4, the overpriced meal (although very tasty and entertaining); Hangover 2 would be the drinks and dirty talk at the bar; Kung Fu Panda 2 is the awkward filled silence; followed by the hard decision of dessert between X-men First Class or Green Lantern (X-men luring by extreme flavor where Green Lantern only looking gorgeous on the plate); Transformers 3 will be the heavy petting in the car; Captain America is the exciting sex; and depending on stamina, the climax could be a blue ball of the Smurfs, a rough explosion of savage love in Conan or the primal release of Rise of Planets of the Apes.
If this kind of evening is not for you, then avoid the multiplexes. Until then, Fast Five looks to be the smoking hot blonde that just walked in the door….
