The Film Blog
We were going to call this this section the 'flog' (see what we did there), but thought we might bring in the wrong crowd. This is where the house reviewers regularly post to their random thoughts vaguely on the subject of film.
Uwe Boll - Worst director in the world?? Robin
Last updated on 9th August, 2008
There have been a few directors over the years consistently putting out pretty terrible movies. Ed Wood years ago, Michael Bay today perhaps? One director whose name just keeps cropping up these days is Uwe Boll, he of Bloodrayne, House of the Dead, Alone in the Dark, In the Name of the King and more recently, Postal.
I've seen a couple of these and yes, they did suck. Boll often chooses video game projects, and we know from previous examples that its never been a successful area for anyone. But, I have an admiration for this guy. He keeps toiling away, ignoring the critics and still working with some fairly big names in Hollywood. Well, maybe not all of them. Boll challenged five critics to a boxing match, and beat every single one.
You've got to give the guy props for that. He keeps getting investors for these potential video game movies, and Jason Statham, who is making a lot of movies right now, chose to star in In the Name of the King. I checked the trailer for Postal, and it looks hilarious.
Finally someone with the balls to poke some fun at 9/11.
