Flash Gordon

Rating: 3.5

It is hard to argue that this wasn’t the best summer ever for movies. Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and The Dark Knight all spent weeks at number one. In fact the past decade has been huge for movies and don’t expect that to change anytime soon. Back in the 70’s and 80’s Superman held the top spot in the movies. But he wasn’t the only one to grace the big screen… at least temporarily. When I was at a friend’s house for a 4th grade birthday party we watched the 1980 flick Flash Gordon. I remembered very little about the film other than I liked it.  And who could forget the Flash Gordon theme song sung by Queen (if you’ve seen Blades of Glory you know what I’m talking about). Actually most of the musical score was composed by Queen, and it is a big standout of the movie. So I decided it was time to re-watch the movie and see how it compares to the films of today.

Scanners

Rating: 4

When I was younger, I always thought having a super power or ability like the talent of flight or invisibility would be awesome.  As I get older, I realize that Telepathy would probably be a lot cooler.  You could read minds, use the power of persuasion, or have the ability to find out what people are thinking - their wants, desires…  Cameron Vale (played by Stephen Lack) has that power, but at times it more of a hinderance than it is a gift.  You see, he’s a scanner - one of only 237 in the world that has unique telepathic abilities that allows him to control others with his mind - and he’s on the lookout for another person who shares his ability.  The problem is, that other person is on the wrong side.
