In Renny Harlin's unashamed 1999 B Movie, it contains one of Samuel L Jackson' more memorable moments. There's no better end to a monologue than having a shark coming out of nowhere! Better than the entire running time of Snakes on a Plane!
First Person Shooter: Doom
Doom was always going to be a tricky one to adapt for the big screen and to director Andrej Bartkowiak he made an honest stab at it. Having a first person shooter moment was always a must for die hard fans and for a few brief minutes it elevates things. I swear if you listen hard enough, you can hear smiles spreading for the first time in 2 hours.
Penis Song: The Sweetest Thing
These days a Cameron Diaz comedy isn't the sure fire winner that it used to be. In this 2002 effort, the laughs were pretty thin on the ground. One bizarre sequence however was a few moments of funny yet zany bliss. Never thought that anyone could make a song about someone's man-parts, here lies proof that there is an exception to the rule.
Clark Kent v Superman:| Superman III
The final two installments of the caped crusader were tragically both misfiring efforts. In a movie that is more or less spoiled by including Richard Pryor, Superman III does possess one sequence that stands out. All through the movie, Superman has been wrestling with himself since being infected by Kryptonite. This sequences sees the ultimate battle for his soul and we pray for Clark Kent to be the victor.
A Cold Front: Batman & Robin
About the only redeeming feature of Joel Schumacher's campy and embarrassing second Batman outing is the one liners of Arnold Schwarzenegger. As Mr Freeze he seems to be the only one aware of just what a joke the whole thing has become. Where would the entertainment factor be without lines such as "Everybody...Chill!"
Double Edged Sword: Stars Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace
This will be the only time that I ever mention the words 'Phantom Menace' with good. Many people have rightfully trampled on George Lucas' unfortunate prequel. One quality it did possess was a decent fight sequence and the moment where Darth Maul (Ray Park) unveil his ultimate fighting weapon still sticks out.
