Movie Review: Mutant Chronicles

[seorgia]

I watched Mutant Chronicles tonight. It was A-fucking-mazing. Full of good one-liners, lots of sweet action, and some amazing acting. It also has Ron Perlman in it who is one of the very few actors I have true fangirl lurve toward. Thomas Jane is in it as well and he is freaking great also. A bit heavy on the have faith message but since it never tries to just slip it into the conversation shall we say, I don't really mind it all that much. I mean Ron Perlman plays a freaking monk--of course there will be god-thumping. Not bible based thumping though, a whole strange sect thing based around a book and a prophecy and stuffage. All the characters kick much ass and it is an action based sci-fi flick so there is blood and swords and bullets galore. Another one of the few movies I will classify as true science fiction. My definition by the way is one that says if you can take the basic story line, take the mech/sci out and it still is a viable story--not sci-fi. Now don't go getting your panties in a twist I'm allowed my delusions.

Anyhow, delusions aside, really great movie. I'm buying it and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for some decent entertainment.
