Q: The Winged Serpant
I've had a day since I've watched this movie to reflect on it, and I decided I like it. I was never really into the whole Godzilla and King Kong flicks, so I had mydoubts about watching a movie about a giant flying lizard terrorizing New Yorkers. One thing that scored it big points was the fact that the movie started with action. Often, I like movies where you don't have to wait for character development, or building story lines to get to the good parts. The story started off with a window washer getting decapitated, and the body count keeps a steady pace throught the rest of the story. The crossing story lines wee also a nice touch. I give it a 3.5 out of 5.
