Review of The Deaths of Ian Stone (2008) by Heather L — 24 Jun 2009

Since Groundhog Day we have been saturated wth ripoffs, this film is not the exception. It is merely that, a ripoff of a brilliant idea. Aside from it having Mike Vogel, who's a super hottie, I don't think there are too many achievements.

The fact that they are aliens is probably promissing, but then they kill a good idea with him wanting to be good and the "bad aliens" wanting revenge for he is, obviously, the most powerful and shouldn't have kill one of them and leave them.

Once again, evil is personified by a woman, which is cool, but a little corny already. The different lifes that he is given are kinda cool, specially the one where he is a drug addict, up to that point, though slow, the film is still promissing, but then, his characters turns into an ugly alien and fight awesomely and what could've been a fine escapism story, suddenly becomes into a cheap Predator/Groundhog Day/Aliens mockery.
