Both of the movies this week have a polarizing effect on the crew. Ninja Assassin garners appreciation in an 80s action flick sort of way from Jeff and Alex, but Dan feels like it is teetering on the edge of being another Street Fight: Legend of Chun Li. The Road again strikes Jeff and Alex as well done, but Dan feels like it was a let-down, especially in its cinematography. Viggo Mortensen receives universal praise though.

In the middle segment, the guys can’t help themselves and give the new Star War Force Trainer a go. It is intended to allow you to control a floating ball using brain waves, but the validity of this claim quickly comes into question. Surprisingly, it still looks like it could be fun in the right setting.

Left 4 Dead 2 is the game this week and everyone has qualified praise for it. Dan is again wearing the “hater pants,” but even he admits to having a lot of fun with it. The main argument is that it is great at what it does, but there is a lot more unexploited potential.

Do we flip out and kill Ninja Assassin? How do we feel at the end of The Road? Is Left 4 Dead 2 a worthy sequel or just expensive DLC? Plus, we train our minds to control the force!
