Posted at October 9, 2006, 10:01 am: I'm hopping on the review chain. I've had reviews here and there, but no solid thread dedicated to reviews. So here goes.... Now, a little back story on these two. Found a drive-in in the city last night, and had to go check it out. This being my first drive-in theatre, I wanted to take it in. Directed by Phil Joanou, Gridiron Gang is the true story about Los Angeles Juvenile Corrections Officer Sean Porter's attempt at putting together a football team out of juvenile criminals. The film stars Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Xzibit, Leon Rippy, and Kevin Dunn. All in all, I liked this movie. It wasn't the greatest movie ever, but it was a good story. Of course, this isn't the first film "based on a true story". Enough about that though, I could break this movie down a lot, but you aren't here for that, so continuing on... The film has a lot of lull points in which the movie almost does a dead stop and could make one momentarily lose interest. These are few and far between, however. I recommned this film to those who likes films like Remember the Titans or Hardball, Gridiron Gang might be up your alley. Gridiron Gang is rated for scenes of violence, and language. My rating, 4/5 ----------------------------------------------------- Moving on, here is the next film at the drive-in double feature. Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning I'm not going to go into much detail with this. I thought this movie sucked, to put it bluntly. It didn't do much for the beginning it claimed to be providing in its title. Most of the so called beginning was delivered in the opening credits. After that, the film just seemed to do a downward spiral and mimic most of the remake of 2003. Granted, the remake left some to be desired, but it was more intense. This one, well other than the sound effects of a chainsaw cutting through bones, doesn't leave much to the imagination. If you're looking for a horror film to get your date to jump and hold onto you tighter, this would be one of those, but keep in mind, while this one isn't as good as the remake, it's far more detailed in how the Hewitt's butcher and prepare their meals. for well everything you could expect to be in a horror film.
