Not a huge Tom Cruise fan (with the exception of Top Gun and Minority Report), but Oblivion looks like a must see for any Sci-Fi fan.

Movie Review: Iron Sky
Have you ever wondered what it'd be like if the Nazis weren't really gone, but instead had taken over the moon? Well wait no more, for now there is Iron Sky.
Plot Synopsis
At the end of World War II the Nazis launch a secret space program to the dark side of the moon. For the next 70 years they lie in wait, constructing a massive space fortress and fleet of heavily armed flying saucers. In 2018, they make their move to take back the Earth.
Iron Sky isn't the greatest movie of all time, but if you're looking for a movie to sit, relax, and unwind with, than it's the perfect fit.
The story will keep your attention, the acting is actually good, it's well paced with the action, and the humor is well timed. Above all else though, the movie's musical score was absolutely mind blowing.
Our only real complaint was at the opening sequence of the movie. There was nothing about it that made us feel like these events were actually happening on the moon, everything was beyond fake, even the astronauts' space suits were terrible.
First ten minutes had us wondering if Iron Sky could get any more cornier and cheesier. After those ten minutes though, things turned around and we fully enjoyed the film.
Iron Sky is a 93 minute Sci-Fi comedy, rated R for strong language and some violence, stars Julia Dietze, Gotz Otto, and Christopher Kirby, and was directed by Timo Vuorensola.
We give Iron Sky a solid 3 out 5.

Battleship - Trailer 2
Who didn't grow up playing Battleship? Well now it comes to the big screen, aliens and all. Wait, in what version of the game were there aliens?
You know what, that doesn't matter, we love aliens, and this film actually looks promising. Or at the very least will provide us with a break from the ups and downs of a busy work day.
So far the only real flaw we've found with this film, is Rihanna. Seriously people, Rihanna? There are far too many others that can't act that we'd love to see before Rihanna. Oh well, may be she won't last long.
So who's gearing up for this one?

Worst Movie EVER!!
RECON 2022: The Mezzo Incident
First let's begin by saying "DO NOT WASTE MONEY ON THIS MOVIE." This movie will take away 96 minutes, that's its run time, of your life that you could have wasted playing Gears Of War and eating Cheetos.
The story, set not too far into the future, puts mankind at war with an alien race known as the Ma'har, whom man has never laid eyes on; apparently all of our fighting has been against cyborgs. A team of soldiers is sent to an ice planet called Mezzo, where they are to locate and destroy a facility that is believed to be run by the Ma'har, but turns out to be an underground cyborg facility.
This movie offers nothing but terrible acting by a bunch of no names, who will remain that way doing crap like this, hundreds of bad sex jokes, and a soft porn soundtrack that simply doesn't belong.
For a group of so called top notch marines, you wonder how they ever survived basic training.
Examples:
1. They fire at an aircraft for about ten minutes using their standard automatic weapons when they have a rocket launcher.
2. When they prepare to snipe three cyborgs they don't just shoot them but decide to have two of the four remaining team members run in the open to draw their fire. WHY?
3. They pretty much repeat number two here except they use a different weapon to take out the cyborgs. (Side Note: They also used the exact same scene of the two marines running in the open.)
4. When there is cover, they never use it. In fact most gun fights involve everyone standing in the open shooting and shooting and shooting, and no results. Two minutes later a cyborg will fall.
Here's the really bad news. This is movie number two of at least three. Someone has way too much money and free time on their hands if they actually think people want three of these terrible movies.
We have no true rating system here at junkyard, but let us just say this;
No stars, 0 / 5, and we couldn't even bring ourselves to give this to our worst enemy. - GJ
