7 Guardians of the Tomb

You can feel that it's a Chinese production throughout. I don't know what it is, if it's censorship or some moral code the filmmakers have to adhere to. Whatever it is, it's immediately apparent, and it's not a good thing. It feels sanitised and bland.

Maybe all the money went on the cast, it definitely didn't go on the writing.

A group of people goes to rescue two missing employees of a pharmaceutical. This is a weak movie, one of the most important things you can say with a movie like this is that you have to be patient and brave to watch it until the end. Well I was, but on the end I just felt like I lost 90 minutes of my life. The plot is confuse, who are the guardians? The acting is what it is , with dialogues like this you can´t do much about it. Even the guy that was supposed to be funny is far from it. I´m disappointed to see the beautiful an amazing Li Bingbing take part of this. On the end I just say that if you did not see this don´t waste your time on it, you will not be sorry that you didn´t see this movie.

It was a B-Movie, but a B-Movie with a fairly okay budget and it looked pretty good actually. When I saw the title page and synopsis I thought it was going to be bad, but it was better than I expected. I mean it was one of those "bad films" but, the good kind for the right reasons.

Honestly it was so much fun, it very much had the Adventure Pulp vibe to it. If you are scared of spiders though, this film is not for you. There's a lot of them. Are they supposed to be the "guardians of the tomb" I have no idea? There were some pretty big spiders too.

There was more questions than answers with some of the plot holes that popped up, and it was cheesy. But it felt like a ride, but a fun one at least. I thought the actors did a really great job too. I really enjoyed it and thought it was all kinds of fun.

I do agree with another reviewer that this film needed Nicholas Cage! That would have made this film even better.

Take a bevy of actors and give them an awful script with risible dialogue and you get this...a small group overacting and running around an old Star Trek set. Stef Dawson's character 'Milly Piper' could've died after she first open her mouth as far as I'm concerned, she's THAT bad. The quest to find a lost brother is their aim, except for Kelsey Grammer's Mason who is really trying to track down the elixir of life...bwah ha haaaa (twirls imaginary moustache). The main threat to their journey is hundreds upon hundreds of deadly spiders who appear to be made of black shiny leather and can hiss and squeak...Yes, you read that right...hiss and squeak. By all means, watch this, suspend all disbelief, let the film wash over you and drown in its ridiculousness. It's a real hoot, soon to be considered a classic amongst godawful movies that you can say "Yes...I sat through that film and survived." Now go and enjoy!

Sometimes you get fed up of Hollywood films and big blockbusters. Saw the trailer to this, thought it looked ok. Well watched it, and must say I enjoyed it. It was not brilliant, but neither rubbish, but I thought it was good, well it entertained me for an hour and half. Isn't that what films are supposed to do, entertain. Give it a watch, it aint that bad.
