DailyHaste has a new direction that broadens its potential!

I am excited to tell the bloggers and readers of DailyHaste that I have decided to broaden the spectrum of the content that will now be featured on DailyHaste. I made this decision to bring in a larger community and have a more personalized blog of things that interest me. I realized that doing  movie and game reviews was fun, but it wasn’t fulfilling my potential in blogging so therefore I have made this large step and I invite everyone to come along on the ride! Please check by daily as of new posts will be brought to you often!

District 13: Ultimatum, Action packed and fun.

District 13: Ultimatum

District 13: Ultimatum is the sequel to the original District 13 starring Leito (Famous Parkour legend David Belle) and Damien Tomasso (Cyril Raffaelli). The movie is about an outcast district, which is a racially driven ghetto populated by violent drug dealing gangs and war lords. Despite government promises to maintain order, the state of the district has gone into chaos, and a group of corrupt cops and elected officials are conspiring to cause civil unrest in District 13, looking for an excuse to raze the area and cash in on its redevelopment. Now Damian and Leito must join forces again, and use their mastery of martial arts and their unique physical skills to bring peace to the neighborhood by any means necessary. The adrenaline pumped movie packs lots of action and high flying scenes with lots of bone crunching fights. The movie is a nonstop action thrill ride that will entertain you throughout the whole movie.

A very good movie to watch if you are into action, but I would recommend watching the French version (Banlieue 13 Ultimatumm) because from what I saw the English version was not so good in the dubbing of it.

The Simpsons Arcade iPhone app, brings back memories.

The Simpsons Arcade!

The new iPhone app released by EA is fun just like the good old times! The Simpsons Arcade app is exactly what it says, its just like the old arcade game where you move left and right to beat down your enemies and eat doughnuts to get your health back. The controls are extremely responsive and work very well for a game that requires you to move with a joystick controller with your left thumb and your right thumb is used to jump and/or attack. The graphics and gameplay are exactly like the old arcade game which is extremely fun! For anyone looking to have some fun in an old arcade style this game has it all and will keep you occupied for a while.

Overall one of the better adaptations of an old game into the iPhone game genre.

Avatar, big budget, big special effects, a must see on the big Screen!

Avatar

Avatar is the biggest budget movie in the history of all movie making. The movie had a budget of  $300-$500 million, but apparently it paid off because the movie is soaring through the box office at an extremely fast rate! Avatar has already made over 1$ billion dollars and counting in 17 days of it being out. Avatar is the story of an ex-Marine who finds himself put into hostilities on an alien planet filled with exotic life forms. As an Avatar, a human mind in an alien body, he finds himself torn between two worlds, in a desperate fight for his own survival and that of the indigenous people. He soon finds out he has to make the hardest decision of his life in the fight between the two worlds.

Overall a great movie that is filled with everything that you look for in a movie. This movie is a must see on the big Screen, not only is the 3D amazing, the special effects will blow your mind away at how impressive they are and the attention to detail of everything.

Zombieland, funny and gory! Another great zombie flick.

Zombieland is about the world being overtaken by zombies and thus America’s new name is Zombieland. The movie takes off with a lesson on how to survive a zombie outbreak which is actually quite comical. Although this movie seems like it’s just a comedy it also has somewhat of a story, where the whole middle section of this movie you wont see a single zombie. Overall Zombieland was a interesting take on a zombie flick and is worth seeing due to its funny moments and full out zombie killing.

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, fun and entertaining

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs is a really well put together movie that all audiences can joy from young to old. The movie has a lot of depth and life lessons that can be understood by all. The movie is about an inventor named Flint Lockwood who struggles with his inventions never being a major success, until one day he makes an invention that is amazing and by accident it makes it rain food. In all of this happening Flint meets a news reporter who is a brainy weathergirl. The two of them try and figure out how this all is really happening and the adventure begins from there. The movie really hits all the bases in being funny, entertaining, and passionate. If you like animated movies this movie is a winner.

I suggest going to see this movie in theatres

Another great animated film for everyone.

District 9, Visually impressive and emotionally wrenching

District 9

District 9 was a great movie from the producer Peter Jackson. The movie starts off amazing and ends the same way, with enough action and impacting story to really go a long way. The lead role was played amazingly and was a substantial selling point of this movie. The movie is about aliens who land on Earth and end up getting stuck here because humans force them to. Throughout the movie you will really feel how cruel the human race can be as a whole. The story starts off with the lead actor getting infected by the aliens and as he starts to turn into one of the aliens things start to get interesting and he becomes a wanted man. The suspense really picks up as you see how he struggles to stay alive. I don’t want to ruin the movie so I will leave it off by saying that, but this movie is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time and the best I have seen yet this summer. The movie really hits all of its bases and so much more. I highly recommend seeing District 9 if you already haven’t.

A movie you should definitely see in theaters!

Overall a truly amazing film.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Indiana Jones

I finally recently got the chance to watch this after putting it off for so long. The movie brought back memories of the originals and how great they were. The movie was what I expected with lots of action and puzzles to solve. The shortfalls of this film were definitely the unrealistic scenes where it was far too fake to even look real at all. Overall it was fairly well-rounded movie, but if you compare it to the originals I think this one doesn’t quite hit its mark. If you have never watched the Indiana Jones series of movies, I would be shocked, but if you haven’t, then I really recommend watching the originals and then watching this one. Harrison Ford showed that he still has it in him although he is much older in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Overall a well-acted movie by Harrison Ford and Shia Labeouf (Indiana’s son in the movie).

I would recommend watching this now that it’s on DVD.

A fun film with lots of action.

The Time Traveler’s Wife, a good idea, but too confusing

The Time Traveler's Wife

The Time Traveler’s Wife is about a woman named Clare (Rachel McAdams) who has been in love with Henry (Eric Bana) her whole life and although she never knows when she will see Henry again she still holds on tight. Henry has a rare genetic anomaly where he travels through time and his life is lived on an unpredictable time-line making it very hard on Clare because she never knows when he will appear or disappear. The movie had a good concept, but it fell short in being too convoluted and confusing to really grasp and understand the true meaning of this movie. The main roles were acted well, but it still didn’t hit the right marks.

Not the best summer movie, but not the worst

I would wait for the DVD to see this movie if you want to see it

G.I Joe: Rise of the Cobra, Action packed from beginning until the end

G.I Joe

G.I Joe

The new G.I Joe movie was a full 120 minutes of non-stop action filled with incredible special effects. Although critics say that the movie wasn’t too good, I think you have to take the movie for what it is, and that’s an action movie with enough explosions and special effects to keep any action movie fan happy. I was very surprised to see that the movie was two hours long when I had heard that it was pure action, but the movie was everything I expected and more. I know that the plot wasn’t the greatest and it may have fallen short on some of its not so great moments, but it sure was one of the more fun movies I have got to watch in a long time. A great summer blockbuster having the most action in a film I have seen thus far this summer.

I recommend this movie to anyone who loves a good action film.

Overall I was very satisfied with action scenes and special effects.
