Dark Moon Rising
(2015)

I didn't want to waste my money
So I watched it in its entirety

I urge you to do yourself a favor and stay away from the movie if you require a plot, character motivation, etc.

You can usually tell by the description, poster, and reviews just how good a movie is gonna be. I think the reviews on Re*b*x were fudged too.

It's a good habit to pay attention in the first part of the movie when they introduce the characters and their reason for existence... Must have not gotten the cue. About 90% of the time I was completely lost, even with the subtitles. The sfx were not the greatest, the acting was just sub-par. Eric Roberts could not save this film. I'm almost certain he didn't charge for his appearance in the film. I even had a hard time pinning the characters with the actors. There was just no direction to the film. Everything was all over the place..

I am also surprised someone actually produced this on discs and someone felt the need to distribute this to the public. It should have stayed shelved....permanently... subsequent destroyed in some random explosion - never to be spoken of again.

The only thing I will give the cast/crew props for is the dub step music. Don't normally hear that in a werewolf/horror film, and it was a nice change.

Need for Speed: Carbon
(2006)

Good, but could be better
Honestly, NFS Most Wanted is probably your best bet. It focuses more on pursuits to engage the player, better graphics, more realistic prices for cars and just more fun all around. Most Wanted was ballz out in the daylight!! And its easier to make the cop cars flip and slide across the road.

Carbon has bunches of shortcuts(which helps during sprints and circuits) Drifting ain't exactly my cup of tea, but it's alright. Another thing, in MW, you could re-enter races for the same amount of cash, in Carbon after re-winning the race, all you get is some crummy $500! A lot of cars are locked in challenge mode also(good luck with that). Music TRAX are so-so. I did like that you could drop the ride height.

I hope the new installment coming in the fall upstages the last one.
