I've been watching Warehouse 13 a few times over the past few days. Something kept bothering me. I've seen something like this before. I kept thinking about it. And it finally came to me. Many years ago I recall Friday The 13th, The Series. It was on for several years. Two young antique store owners must recover cursed antiques that were stolen or sold. Each of these cursed items were evil in someway and all had to be recovered and brought back to the store and locked up. There was and much older man that would send out the young man and women out to recover the items. This production is on a much larger scale of course.
For some reason I expected more of Director Spielberg. It might have been the movie house was HOT! and maybe I just didn't like Mr Cruise in the lead. I kept going back to the 1950 version. Which I really liked and I think is still better then this one. Let me say I sure do like todays outing. It's really up to date with effects. The star of the show is really little Dakota Fanning. Nobody comes close. I would have liked more information Via news reports to know what was going on around the world as the attacks began. And more of our government's action to attack. Nice work by the 10th Mountain Division from Ft Drum NY. I would have like to see more military involved! Interesting idea that the machines are already here. Buried for many thousands if not millions of years waiting for the pilots. But i thought we would have dug up a few of the machines over the years? Not to give it all away. It did stick much closer to the H.G.Wells novel. Yet I left the move still wanting more.
Why did I think of recording this program on my DVR? I just stopped and erased the recording. It was just that bad! Why would any station run this trash. Furthermore, why would any sponsor time to run this? I will not go through everything that's wrong with it. The acting is trite, or should I say there is no acting. The cast just delivers lines to the camera. The effects you just sit there and laugh at them. I'm sort of in the biz and I think I could do the effects better. Well, I'm not wasting my time watching it. It's really that bad and the poor sponsors are just throwing their money away. I'm wondering if "Atomic Twister" and the other "Twister" movies was made by the same people? Trash this one.
