Is not your average comic book movie. Cause really all it said people just wearing costume. There have been lately this kind of films, from Woody Defendor, to the drug inducing Special. Showing common people doing thing that only in comic book exist. Matthew Vaughn Brought to us something rare, that many critic have already calling it a mix of Taratino with Superhero. And their right, here's the review:

Aaron Johnson(Dave Lizewski) Was your average teen geek in high school, Always been ignore by girls, been rob in he's nearest comic books store, always same night in the computer throwing tissue in the thrash. Until one day he's fascination off comic, inspire him to become a mask vigilante, and fight some crime. Giving he's name of Kick Ass, as he's first intend of fighting bad guys,land him on the hospital being stab. He's second gave him some bruising, but fought until the end, and already becoming a in star, thank to the Internet. That whole city took notice of he's act. And motivating others, to pick up a costume, and fight some crime. Enter the father n daughter crime duo, known as Big daddy n Hitgirl(Nicoles Cage/Chloe Moretz) taking it to a whole new level that make some mafia boss piss. Frank D.Amico put a price on kick ass for shutting down he's operation, and for killing the boys. So when he sent He's son Chris D.Amico(Christopher Mintz Plasse) to find him. Thing star to get bloody, with mask on them.

I think Aaron acting, was very obvious, but funny, in the form that he narrated the whole film, and explaining the whole concept of what make a hero. But the guy hit it out the ball game when came to the brutal beating that made it. Far entertainig. Mclovin Chritopher Mintz, gave a not so thrilling performances, just more of a car salesman showing off he's mist mobile. Mark Strong already is a gangtar, i mean where did they discover this guy. Making he's performance role so greedy, mean, and just play out bad guy. He already is leaving actor Sean Bean without a bad guy role. Nicole's play the geekiest dad ever(with some gun fetishes). Pull some nice move. But not so Nicer as her cos star that took the film Chloe Moretz. This little girl show us. To not be menacing with her, when yer playing some halo. The girl became as the new slasher, and john woo star of the year. I mean she actually says the best line of the film. So ye best stay away from her, when she have a butterfly knife.

I haven't read the adaptation of the comic that is based on. But Mathew did he's homework right. The man really play right with the story giving one of the character their story, and their background, and putting some faithful things to it, that come straight out of the comic. Cause trust me what i heard is more extreme, and dark. Hes action scene, were by far he's best, from Hit girl corridor gunfight, to Kickass beat down. Even the night vision shooting were a masterpiece, very stylish, in the way that he's gaming side inspire him to do it. Something Doom never did right(not even putting the rock as the villain). I really appreciate the most, when he let the actual artist of the comic book John Romita Jr. Drawing the original story of Of Big Daddy n Hit girl, their reason over Frank D.Amico. Something that only in spider man two which as the beginning saw the art of Alex Ross. Nice. And the music was OK in the aspect of how well play in every scene of the film. I love the spaghetti Western the most.

Matthew Vaughn came out as Guy Ritchie second director. Now he already is gonna star filming the new x-men movie. Making he's first movie all about crime, and the second a fantasy(also related to a comic). Took a huge risk, to finance this film, and making it. Into what so happen to be the very best comic book movie of the year.(Knowing that title already iron man2 has it)

So another thing:

This is it my 100 review, yo all. I mean 3 years it took me to get it. I know my life suck, but thank to this blog that got me into the thing i like the most watching, and bitching about movies. I also put my famous top ten of everything, beside some Mexican jokes. But it was a great trip to financing and writing this review. And also adding a dedication to a dear friend.

I mean this it was great achievement that Mexican ever did, beside been corrupt than the president of the country. I know their ain't people reading it, but god felt good doing it.

I gonna stop for a while, cause i really wanna work on something on this occasion, and make something different.

But really this have been a great accomplishment, that no word need to describe it. Even better cause really a movie like Kick Ass was something that i needed, to get my amp high.

so if ye one the guys pelandome(gave a rat ass to my blog)

Thank you.

And see ya on the next media.

Well it was epic, but for beginning it works.

Well we all know the story, of the infamous Robin hood. he's mode always was steal from the rich, and give to the poor. With so many reincarnation, from novel, tv series, etc. There's a new version, directed by Ridley Scott, and starring gladiator Russell Crow. But it beg is it good, to steal, or rather be left to the rich?
Here's my arrow of review:

King Richard(Danny Huston) was running he's campaign all over France, where a archer and he friend fight at he's side. Robin Longstride(Russell Crow), where he's friend Little john(Kevin Durand), Will(Scott Grimes), and the musician Allan(Alan Doyle) fight with all their might, until they escape. Soon after the King ha fallen. A group of knight travel back to London to give the announcement, until they are ambush by French knight lead by Godfrey(Mark Strong). In their way Robin and he's friend are caught in the fray.
By now they find their one way ticket to home. As disguising as knight, and return the crown.
Meanwhile back in Nottingham Lady Marion(Cate Blanchett) is having trouble on plating, cause everyday her farm is been rob by a pact of orphan Hoodlum. In London News came of the death of the king that Prince John is name as the new, As for robin and he's merry man head to Nottingham, where they are receive as hero, Lady Marion welcome Robin to her house, where he meet the Lord of the country side. A telling him about the death of he's child. Meanwhile back on London, King John star to cause trouble when he sent he fellow man Godfrey to ambush and storm every village, taking everything of their wealth. Knowing soon that he actually a french spy, preparing a invasion. That London wont be knowing. Back Robin star to enjoy of he's new life, with all he friend, until trouble come. This is only the beginning of a legend that save England, and defeated the French. Outlaw he was, but hero became.

Well i got say the chemistry of all the actors were good, is like having a party in a bar, or better yet High School. Russell play he same all hero title that he done before. From Proof of life, to gladiator. Cate Blanchett play her best foolish, and amazon warrior in years, not Oscar worthy but fair. Oscar Issac should have been the villain, cause unfairness to he's role, that he transformation of hero of war was just blain.

Well it play out more of a epic(that Ridley is always good on doing), but it fell flat. By the middle of the film, when their just talking about starting a civil war. But the way is told was good, but there were so many changes, wasn't the forest Sherwood, And lady Marion was in fact a princes?
Well what ever they did, entertain. The way Of the archer was the prime focus when it came to the battles. This is more of the origin, of what made Robin the legend that he is know. But of course the changes, we didn't see the star of he's stealing, well just one scene, after that. Is just some sword slashing.

Ridley really want it to turn it into a epic that it work. But come on this guy is a hero, and a thief at the same time, that should be the prime focus of the film. The changes they did, really got me of guard. I m sticking to the classic. But it work for passing the time.

i sleep fine after watching it.

2010-05-18T23:41:00.000-07:00

The first time i saw the original, with scare in your face Robert England.

Gave me the experience of watching a scary movie at the age of 5. Birthing my first nightmare. Also been the day that i pray for the sun to come up. Now take 3 tequila shot, ye get them for a whole week(and i dont mean the drink). Now a remake came out, made by the same studio that did the awesome Friday the 13.

But is it scary to suffer some insomnia, or is it like watching a late 90 sequel of it.

Here my cutting review:

A series of killing have been happening in the town Of Spring wood, related to their dream. Describing them as a man wearing a hat, and a glove with claws. Tormenting them to kill them. When Nancy(RooneyMara) star to investigating, with the help of loner emo kid Quentin(Kyle Gallner) to discover the man with the claw glove. Taking them to discover a dark secret that their parent have been hiding from them. But first they must stay a wake. Cause freddy(James Earle Haley) is coming to get ya.

Well the acting on this film fell something out of a crime novel, or worst troma film. I mean i dont get this Generation cw kid. Is so much drama they too, why dont they take it to seriously, some of the line are well used(from other movie). Look their so much sadness and rebel with a cause. that really fall.But on other hand James role as the nightmare killing Freddy wasn't that bad, i love the voice he gave that really seem convincing. Especially when came to the killing i mean is not better than Robert England, but it work.

Now the story was really a rehash of the first one, that really made the film pointless, Why you ask? Well cause you feel that you already saw it, i mean it was good they have the secret that their parent were hiding. And of course the flashback scene that really gave a new refresh to the film. But after that i think it lost their touch of imagination, i mean the glove in the tub, then the discovery of the cave, i mean that part felt more like the first ring. Then there some scene they have to borrow from other movies, case in point the adrenaline shot in the chest, can you say pulp fiction, And "spoiler alert" freddy decapitation speech, that so freedy vs jason.

Got give credit for the fx, and the spooky moment that the film offer. i mean the classroom ash scene, wow that was neat, and the way James give that claw sound when he coming. Really gave the fright, but they should have really experimenting more on the killing and been more creative. Cause on Friday they really did their homework right, here they just saw the first, and that's it. come on platinum, be justified with yer remakes.

Well the film is worth seen it, for some entertainment, but not for a gory film(cause really their ain't that much). James made a character for this one. But i dont think they be making one soon.

But hey like i said i sleep like Hugh Hefner, with some playboy bunny around me.

They didnt release a kraken, but me.

2010-04-30T23:51:00.000-07:00

The Harryhausen was instant classic, thank to he's art of stop motion. From how a Pegasus fly, to the way a Medusa move, to the kraken ride from the water. Now a remake is made, that really is nothing new to the story, same old Greek story.

But how much did they change and is it worth for 3d?

So here's the story Perseus( Sam Worthington) wasn't some payback from hades(Ralph Fiennes) From killing he's family. Knowing that humanity is rebelling agaisnt the gods, Zeus(Liam Neeson) is putting the smack down. From destroying some city, by releasing the kraken. Now is up to Perseus(knowing he's half god) to travel to the furthers of the world, and find a way to defeat it. With a band of warrior, they must face from giant scorpion, to facing a Medusa, that will stone them. Is the finest hour, and knowing this our hero must face.

OK there really no act on this film, cause all we heard is machismo and thensome. Sam really doesnt give nothing, i prefer him on the terminator, and avatar. But really he need more work for the action department. Liam and Fiennes as always well respect actors, they know their line. And playing as gods is something that this film have. So respect to that.

Now the original Perseus fall in love for Andromeda, for just answering the riddle she always give. On this one they head to a different direction that seem to me lost. I mean for a ageless women, that show him how to fight a Medusa, just wrong. And then there's the question on why hades have to be the main bad guy, on every modern Greek myth film. Really people there other, have anyone play the god of war trilogy. And they don give screen time to Pegasus. The film work out more like adventure story, but more of a short version.

The effect are quite good, especially when it came to the rise of the kraken, from he's tentacle destroying the city to when he scream, some impressive detail. The scorpion really when all NFL to our Heroes. That really gave that extra push of action of the film, gave the meaning on how to make a Greek myth film. Let not forget the Victoria model Medusa, that really pull it off on her slithering way of moving, put some tension to the film.

Now what did i thought about the tradition to 3d? They were eating some mushroom for making the dumb mes decision of all time. I felt from the beginning of the film it wasn't necessary, until the second and the third part. But really nothing come at you. Comparing this film with avatar, i say they really gave it that much thought. Look there some film that is gonna be made intentionally for 3d and other not, cause i dint jump of my seat(well except by going to the bathroom).

So keep the 3d for this one, and see it in 2d instead. And yes there till 3 to go for the big 100.

They say sarcasm doesnt take ya nowhere, well it work for this film

2010-04-30T22:57:00.001-07:00

Marvel is on a roll, since the first one came out. Forming their own studio, they already had plan on making more than 3 movies. And expectation are high. Now the sequel of the one that started it all, come with the same cast, but new villain, and a new face that been Don Cheadle taking the roll that Terrence Howard play.

Does it work, is it better than the first, or is another sequel that deserve to be in thrash:

Tony Stark(Robert Downey) is in lot heat since he gave the announcement that he really is the Iron Man. Now the U.S. government want to confiscated it, Pepper Potts(Gwyneth Patrol) is promoted as CEO, and he body is suffering from the effect of the Arc light. But when he is attack by Ivan Vanko(Mickey Rourke) it come for some attention from part of the competitor and he's founder Justin Hammer(Sam Rockwell) and Hammer industry. But thing gets worst when Tony drinking get to the worst, that not even James(Don Cheadle) can help them. That it need of Nick Fury(Sam Jackson to intervene. And get him straight. But mean while Ivan is already working with James, for making he's new set of toys. Will Tony find someone a way to get back on the suit? Or he's legacy will end, that he will jeopardize everything he build?

Acting from Robert as alway sensational, every line that this guy said. Is gold from the start. It was great to seen more acting time for Gwyneth that i think, she gave her best Mommy performance ever. Hey at least she didnt spend it screaming all the way. Sam Rockwell is great addition from the start, he was not to evil, but it work, for a businessman tycoon. Scarlett Johanson, was very little, but her action sequences, sold it.Mickey rourke, really got that Russian edge, cause bringing a bad ass, tattoo russian Physics gave something to think, to keep him making more evil roles. Now the main question go how well Don Cheadle did? Well Actually it was good, not fun. But good, respect this guy started out as a comedian, now he's in drama. But Garry Shandling and Jon Favreau took the fun moment of the film. Cause that senator role is the best he have done since he's show.

Now the story, what made the first such a hit, what the performance(but more the dialogue). The rhythm that the film had. Was long and short when it came to the action sequences. From the downfall of Tony, to the fixing of Hammer drone, the film lack off on the action. Now i m not saying the is a total bust, but the acting is what saved it lot. I think the relationship that Robert had with Gwyneth made it fell like a episode of friend. It was thoughtful, and funny. The dialogue of the 2nd act it was saved it. With so much sarcasm, there is really no reason to leave, not even for a bathroom break. The effect are till there, like always, something that came out from a star trek next generation episode.

Now there were little action from the fight of the race car, to the final duel with Ivan, they were short, and needed more time, including some more action from the war machine. It was something that was missing from the film, i know the acting of robert always save it. But come on this is based on a comic, and it got it action. So beside giving the explosion and the neat effect, the suspense for the action was just missing.

So bottomless, the film is great, the story is fantastic, but needed that extra battery, to make it as a popcorn film. So is worth to see and laugh, and be thrill(if it mean it was little). So enjoy it, cause stay during the credit, cause what next (spoiler alert) it only come from Asgard.

till to the 100: God nothing to say about this.

2010-04-11T18:36:00.000-07:00

religion in film have been a hot calamity. Since Mel Gibson made the Passion.
Since then everything that is base on, turn out into controversy. If you want something like that, then lets star with Paul Bettany wingful action flick, Legion.
And Guest what, ain't that holy but Fruity(not to offend the gays).
Here's my Antichrist of a review:

So the whole thing star with god, not so happy how humanity, have turn out. So to bring the apocalypse, he sent angels, do it. That's where one angel defied him Michael(Paul Bettany). Landing on earth, he cut he wing, saw them, then arm him, and go to a deserted diner place, in the middle of nowhere. Meeting a 8 month pregnant waitress Charlie(Adrianne Palicki), The not so boyfriend of a mechanic Jeep(Lucas Blacki), the handicap cook Percy(Charle S. Dutton), the lost man Kyle(Tyrese Gibson), The TV bashing owner of paradise falls Bob, and last the stranded family Howard(Ron Tenney, Audrey(Willa Holland), And the mother Sandra(Kate Walsh). When their situation is change when swap of fly head their way, and Michael warning them, of what is to come. So now is a stand still a la Alamo. Armed and ready for anything, for the sake of Charlie baby. Knowing they have to face all type of angels, and discover who the weakest of them all. It will take more than courage to face this army, but fate in one self.

OK some of the acting weren't that exciting to begin with. I mean Lucas black ain't the star of the moment, but he really lost me here. Dennis really should star working for TV. or something else. Tyrese can really let go of the stereotype role that is always giving to him. And really i wont say anything of the other actors, cause really there's nothing good, to talk about. Some of their back story are so cliche, and they till end dead. Paul Bettany is a respected actor, cause common every British guy is, but this role really made him look soft, and just pitiful.

Now the story dont make any sense, i mean why in god green house he wanted he next son dead? Can anybody answer me that. Most of film that take some element from the bible to make it feel good, case in point the Matrix. But here we get just a angel with a machine gun killing innocent civilian, that are posses. Another thing that i dont get. Ain't that from the devil. And really there ain't any archangel battle. The story feel pointless, from the beginning to time they kill Michael, to the awesome car sequences. The film dont follow any religion morals.

But is not all bad i mean the final clash between Michael and Gabriel, those iron wings really pay off. Cause really the only angel that i know that have them is character from the Marvel X-men.
But the film turn out as Alamo stand, that really was good, but get tired. The husband exploding some acid was something brutal, kind of think of it, is the only brutal thing they got. But really they didn't play their card right on the kid that wanted to kill Michael. I mean really guys, ye got put that in. That i felt kind disturb seen it. I mean if you wanna see it done right, then rent yourself the children instead.

So the mix of fate and action, really dont work on the film. Angel action have, but really they should have gonna we something else. Religion film are made to give us a point of view of any type. But this really didn't, Rambo would rather be Jewish after watching it.

I m not trying to be mean here, but really i want my money back, and go out and rent Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter instead.

Road to 100: the best vampfilm so far.

2010-03-21T13:31:00.001-07:00

thank to the twilight phenomenon, everything thing that having a vampire, mean is gonna make some cash. Thank to the fangirl craze(dreaming with a chance on doing it with Pattison). Anyway, mostly all of it, have made to tv series, the only thing that is a movie, with vamp. Is January premier Daybreakers, beside going with the whining, and gay fantasy, turning it into something futuristic and action park. That actually work? Here the review:

in the future, humanity suffer a epidemic, in which it was turn into vampires. Giving birth to a whole new race of immortality, free of every disease, and only living with the feed of blood. Now 9 year pass, and their reserve are running out, which desperation for blood, start to cause panic in the street. Turning them from regular vamp, to more freakish wing one. Now is up to blood researcher Edward Dalton(Ethan Hawke) to find a replacement, and stop this craze. So by now is hunting what is left of humanity, and get the blood necessary. Until the good doctor happen to meet a group of human, lead by Audrey(Claudia Karvan). That take him to meet the one person that can cure the vamp hunger, so humanity can survive can survive. Calling him the Elvis(Willem Defoe) . So will Ed find a solution to the vampire hunger? or will

Charles Bromley(Sam Neil) have other plans for the company that harvest the blood?

Well i must say the role of Ethan Hawke was good, than average nothing new to offer. But with that innocent look that he always have since , explorers. He will always be the good guy. Defoe gives he best John Wayne impersonation(well that how i see it) tat really doesn't fit. I respect this actor, and all he's film credentials, but here just give him the guitar and he be ready. Sam Neil the same, great actor, always doing he's devilish take, that always works. Only this time he's playing a vampire businessman. That's surely fit.

The movie star well, with the girl burning. Giving the side effect of what is been immortality is about? That later focus on the city, that really dont say. But the focus of the story of the blood reserve running out was something, new. The whole environment, from the subway, do the low lights of every house, to how they harvest the human. All was great, especially the harvesting, that really disturb me. The action is something good that directors Spierig know to do. From the first chance sequences when they are sliding to the rail of the bridge to the ambush of night, but their drama is fine too. I mean the scene that Neil want her daughter to be turn. There's another thing that confuse me, ain't she suppose to be ashes? Well anyway the suspend is rare, cause their ain't that much Cg to the whole film. Except from the burning scene.

The brothers Spierig made to the scene with their zombie film Undead. Now their take to the vampire, work, i mean the acting is average, but the whole plot that is all about is what sold it. The Aussie knew, only to make car film, and something. But doing something else really fit. I m starting to look forward what else can this brother do. Cause their wave of making films, could star a new style of grind house film.

road to 100: feel like scorsese doing a remake of the prisoner.

2010-03-15T23:04:00.000-07:00

For common director, doing horror or suspense, are always fit, by their top peers. Hitchcock, or even Argento. Now Scorsese bring us, he way on doing it. And coming from the ride, is the golden boy, Leonardo Dicaprio. Does he do it well, or is another Bringing out the dead:

Two U.S Marshall Teddy Daniels(Leonarnado Dicaprio), and Chuck Aule(Mark Ruffalo), are sent to the Mental Institute Facility, in Shutter Island. Where the worst of criminal of insane are put. Investigating the disappearance one of the patient that go by the name of Rachel(Emily Blunt). With the hospitality of the Dr. Cawley(Ben Kingleys) showing everything they need. Tedd try to discover the many secrets that the island have. But is he gonna find it or will he become one of the patient.

Iknow i till dont have my visa yet, so is late for me to review, but hey they premier last friday, here. So the acting of Dicabrio, is something that i dont believe. I mean the tone of voice that he used. Really doesn't fit to him. I mean he trying to do he's best Bogart Impersonation. That he better off doing something modern, like in the departed. Kingley really ain't bad, as gentle, and common sense. The man can pull it off as a shrink. I mean give this guy a pipe, and he go all Sigmund fraud on ya. Mark Ruffalo still making a name, with he's new york acting, the guy make ya believe that he's the real deal. And finally Jackie Earle, can till make the best creepy appearances since the creep keeper.

I can say much of the story, so i doing a spoiler moment, it feel as the sense of Ficher The game, to Deeps Rear Window. I mean the period that it take place, real felt that thriller, that were made in the 1950's. But to they have to borrow every cliched of suspense do it. I mean the Mechanism is one prime example, that really give ya the clues on the happening. But here it feel the same. The lighthouse, where they do their Manchurian experiment, or the many places they have their patient, that part gotta come from the Video Game Batman:Arkham Asylum. And the patients they all dont look that scary, except from the staple guy, that confuse me. From Deniro, that exact is Elias Koteas. They took fright moment, but dont work. And the flashback does work in most moment, from telling the backgroung of Teddy, from he's time in war, to he's allusionation over he's wife, play by Michelle Williams. And there were times that the camera, felt tire ding in times, like in the fire in the cave, the flame not nice way on shooting it. Is something that is made in 3D.

Scorsese made something , that's is already made, but gave it he's own twist. The environment is gonna get ya. But most of the story, well is done. I respect this man, but really he best doing something else, then doing something that gonna surprise ya by the end.

I recommend ye best till stay with Alice for this one.

Road to 100 continue: pencilpusher

2010-03-13T14:23:00.000-08:00

Definition:When somebody pushes the pencil, from drawing to moving it, giving it motion.
In other words animation. February was month for animation(direct to dvd i mean). That two are based on video games, there other from comics, and the last a nickelodeon. Now knowing that some of the major website of enetertainment already did their bit from reviewing it. From the special features, to the quality of format, sound, voice acting, and of course the story. that's where i focus the most. Why? cause that's all i can do. Hey i mexican, that love cartoon, and understand the english. Yes i speak it too. So either yer ñoño(fanboy) or a gamer, or some guy that got no time tobuy a cup of corn(i love that).

Heres the 5 DVD animation that cameout:

5.-The penguins dvd premier

The penguins of madagascar have been hit on nick, that have been bringing kids from ages 5-10. Enjoying their many silly adventures. Theres a reason they made their own dvd adventure in which non other dbag actor extraordiner Neil Patrick Harris makes he's voice acting, to the evil dolphin Dr blowhole, that really is that fun, with a launght that would make Tv favorite nanny(not the british ones) franne dresher marry again. The story and the characters are fun, and unenexpected. Cause really they have giant lobster with a giant iron claw. And of course it couldn't be funnier without Julie. Is good old fashion lobster beating, that red lobster aint getting their order. Just cause i love the character, plus neil Patrick Harris give the best villain laught of all time, deserve to be in 5.

4.-Dante Inferno

Consider by gamers a rip off of god of war, the animated epic is quite good. With manny dismembement, and nudetity ye can handle. The film was for promotion only, like it did with the dead space . But here 6 anime studio did it. that really make is a must see for anybody that's love animation. the only flaw that it have is the continuaty, with so many variation of Dante, it make ya think that he suffering from bulimia. My favorite style go to heresy, very classical, with some very vibrant color.the story is the same of the game but diferent, and short. But till entertaint, if ye ever wonder that theres a disturbing anime film, then let this one show ya the 9 layer of hell.

3.- Halo Legends

first anounce in last year San Diego Comic Con. And premier only on Xbox 360.

The series of short make this franchise more bigger and interesting. telling the story on how it started in origin, and going with the water color paint come alive in the duel, and adding the hype og action with prototype, and the cell shadedcg cartoon The packadges. My fav goes to casio, from bringing a space mocap action adventure. The dvd promote the impact of what the halo universe is all about, and telling it with diferent style of anime. That 's worth seen it, and explore the world.

2.-Justice League:Crisis of two earth.

I have been a fan of the Dc dvd movie. But when i saw Wonder woman, the maturity of style, i was sold. So base on a story written by Grant Morrison. A parallel Lex Luthor come to the justice league for their help. On taking down their evil counter part call as the Crime Syndicate.

The action is good, and copy, like batman fighting in he robot suit, something already seen in Camerons Aliens, But the best go to the Batman and owl man fight. And tree cheer to the voice acting work that james wood and Gina Terra did. on bringing the evil sound to their character. But the bronkly act of ultraman, is something to hear on jersey shore, if ya not pushing anyone. Anywho the animation is perfect, thank to the talent of the korean cartoon company. and of course going with the final crisis version of the martian. I betting that the under the Red Hood, is gonna be the best of the collection.

1.-Planet Hulk

I really dont know what excited me, theappearances on some of marvel cosmic heros, or the well adapted story. Marvel have been battling hard on making one their film worthy to watch, from Iron Man to Next Avenger. But they hit it with Hulk vs. Now they are doing it with planet, base on the maxi tale of comic writer Greg Land. Hulk is exile from earth and land on alien planet sakar(i think that what is call) where he is capture as a slave, and take part as a gladiator for the pure entertaintment of the Red King. I know it sound more like that other ridley scott film. But if ya ñoño like me.This one will wet ya, on the sight of seen, lame space character of the cosmic marvel universe. making their cartoon debut. But the hardcore of the story go, on how bad ass the hulk really is. from the part that he grab the red king from he next, to the fighting sequences with Beta Ray Bill. This film is a must to any collector. That prove that marvel knows where to go now. Bring the Avenger Disamble next.

hey the road to 100 star here:

2010-03-04T22:30:00.000-08:00

The last time i heard of a story of Alice in wonderland, was in the matrix, using it as a metaphor, it gave some brilliant to the way a story could be told. Lewis Carroll brought something that only a drunk, and stonier could ever make. Alice in wonderland is a fairy tale like any other, with a wondrous environment, to very strange, and unique cast of character. Everybody knew that Tim Burton, would make it into a film. Well thank to Disney, he did, but is it a wonder, or it deserve to get it head cut off:

Alice(Mia Wasikowska) is young and bright little lady, that grown up they tell her what todo, but went she go to her secret engagement party, she run off chasing the white rabbit. By going to the rabbit whole, she fall to a world, where flower can talk, where there's a hare(Paul Whitehouse) and a hatter(Johny Deep) are drinking tee, a Cheshire Cat(Stephen Fry) play with you, and is rule by two queens, the white one(Anne Hathaway) and a red one(Helena Bonham Carter). Now she must decide to free this kingdom, by facing something that she doesn't wanna do.

Bright and colorful it come to the world of wonderland.

I think i m gonna give Mia a break, cause really her acting wasn't that bad, it was the same doubtful girl story, but change till end. Johny Deep been dress like combination of a Ronald McDonald and Duck tales very own Scrooge, doing the same with he's performances with a mix of willy wonka, and putting some jack sparrow. I was expecting something looney, cause in the original story he is mad, and he laughs at anything, but here there's some drama, that really dont go so well. I mean he is call the mad hatter for a reason. But the one that had the best act go to the big head of a queen of Helena, playing a imitation, off Oliver stone directing Barbara Streisand. With her squick line, and her famous line. She really brought the fun, Anne acting was adorable, and innocent, like somebody that dedicated her whole life playing candyland. Rickman voice work came well, playing a very Yoda style.

Now i havent read the original story, but they mix it with the Alice and Wonderland, with looking through looking glass, that feel more as a sequel. That's where it fail, i mean they try to make it more as adventure story, but didn't come close. when it came to the sword i was expecting something like sword and the stone. Thank god they didn't. Most of the character were to fast to notice, and something felt like rehash from another Disney film(Narnia anybody). Mixing both story felt wrong, especially when it came not introducing any off the characters, it have gonna better if they have extended the story, with her falling, and knowing wonderland then later been chased by the red queen, cause by then, she make her stand against the jabberwocky monster or thing. Complaining this, made me realize they stood with the true language that the Lewis Carroll made, hell i was surprise when Deep spoke of the infamous poem of the Jabberwocky. Of course i like the last battle sequence, when it take place in a chess battle arena, that come faithful to the sequel. But they had me with the romance that lice was having with the hatter.

The visual are the best thing the film have. From the obvious tween brother, to the fur that cheshire cat had, to even the wonder of both castle. That rarely were inspire by the same magic castle of the amusement park. The design they did to the jabberwocky was faithful to the book. Even to the red queen guards, in the form of cards. The 3D format did work for the film from where Alice is falling to the scale of the fight. Tim Burton could have least used some draft, from the team, that made the classic video game, McGee's Alice.

Tim Burton is always know how to bring something strange and dark, but for Alice, he gave the brighter. Which ain't bad, but fall a little. The story felt short in most of the time, and the character need more introduction. But the visual are the true piece, for making it work.

There have been many version of this story, from the famous Disney cartoon, to the barrage of TV version, and comic too. And the best till go to McGee version. Tim Burton made some great, but he last one weren't that surprising, for me producing 9 was a great choice for him, But Alice he needed to bring something that would made anybody blush. So is best that i thank, to comics, cause i m staying with zenescope version, from return, to beyond, and escape.

Hey read this, cause there left 9 reviews, for the land mark of one hundred.

so to celebrate, i gonna star reviewing the whole animated movies from February. That's right from planet hulk, to halo legend, hell let even put the penguins.

And on 17 check my comparing some mexican torta delight today bisexual star.

is gonna be fun, guarante.

so remember Im joe Asylo, and yes im mexican. that can.

Wow this one claw it way to my heart.

2010-02-18T02:26:00.000-08:00

It seem the Lycan or the way they are know werewolf, have always been the supporting roles, from the Underworld series, to the new twilight. But now universal is making it revision of it. Remaking one of their classic monster, But could this one do justice, thank to Benicio del Toro. or really need that silver bullet?

It all started when Lawrence Talbot(Benicio del Toro) come home, to find who or what kill he's brother. Where at home he is well receive by he's father(Anthony Hopkins) and the widow of he's brother Gwen(Emely Blunt). Hearing rumors, that it was a beast, with claws size of a apple, that how to the moon, sprawling in the country side. He is go out to investigated, by the moment he reach a Gypsy camp. Body parts star to fly, ending it with him receiving a bite. Soon a inspector(Hugo Weaving) comes to investigate, While he's start to notice different thing, from hearing from long distance, to smelling all around him. Until he star to turn the beast from withing. Revealing something that started with dear all father. Will he break the curse before full moon, or will the love of Gwen will over commit?

Benicio, really star great with the film, very good guy type, something i havent seen since traffic. What can i say about Anthony, he's performances can always go well with every picture he make. Emely really star well, but sadly ended in what i hate, the girl that wont let go. Hugo Weaving, should really star making some serious pictures cause the man got talent till.

The story i wasn't expect much, knowing that it was so predictable. Everybody already notice from the eye of the father, spoiler alert. He was the first to be bitten. The film Doesn'T deliver anything new, just your same family secret, that work in the time where is taking. I mean they really went with all theory they have on the myth of the Wolfman. That there's no time from where the film fall. From the chase sequences of london, the suspense grip ya. The film is not so violent it, but slashing in a way works. The film is not making a slashing film. But something more gruesome, in the killing. I mean my favorite of them al is the falling of the shrink to the gates.

The transformation isn't anything new just, some homegrown cg, classic transformations. Nothing different, you cannot even compare to the John Landis Werewolf in London, that was something revolutionary in the effect department. I dig the eye popping ones, to the hand to, that really play homage to the film. But till classic cg magic.

The film works more as a entertainment, than anything else, yes is gory and slashy, but dont expect to see too much blood. At least they didn't went all pg-13. Thank you.

To fast for been greek.

2010-02-18T01:49:00.001-08:00

I m very fond to the greek mythology, from the type of gods, to their creatures. Now knowing that this year is gonna full of it, from the remake of clash of the titan, to the release of everyone favorite ghost of spartan, GOW 3. It seem everything is coming a long, except when i heard of this film. Bringing the Greek to the modern times. Does it work, or get send to the underworld? Here's the review:

Zeus(Sean Bean) lightning was stolen, and all finger are pointing to poseidon son, Percy(Logan Lerman), leaving him 14 days, after the gods declare all wars, among them self. So now Percy was prove he's innocent, by retrieving it, and rescuing her mother(Catherine Keener) from the clutches of hades himself, who want the lightning. Coming along he's best friend/bodyguard Grove(Brandon T. Jackson), and the bravest lady of all the film Athena daughter Annabeth(Alexandra Daddario). Traveling from tennessee to las Vegas, to stop the war that could end the world.

Well i cant say much of the acting, cause really this is something that Nickelodeon could do for a Saturday night movie event. Logan performances, is that of Zach Efren adventures attitude that is missing from him. Alexandra, really was the very interesting character of it all, cause the way she is warrior, than a daughter of aphrodite. And Jackson goat boy act, really was the annoying part of the film, knowing if you watch close, he really cut it as one. The other star, cant say much they were short, and just missing in action, from Medusa face Uma Thurman, to half horse butt Pierce Brosnan. I think Rosario Dawson have the much time than all them.

I know it sounded gruel, but lets get to the story, i think it was kind good the story had that same myth adventure, that is know off. But i felt that some of those idea were borrow. Example the Medusa decapitation, is something they took from the clash, and the stone traveling, that definitely a Harry Potter trick.Plus there's more, when they take him to he's tent, it really felt even more Harry Pottery. the story doesnt give so much character development, cause in half-blood camp all they show, is how bad asses(pardon the words). so soon. They should have a least giving a half hour on the reason of who they are. I did like Percy Problems from he dyslexia, to he's deficit, cause in true is something that i can relate. And the relationship that the gods have with their son, is also that really make it very modern.

That really bring that humane sense, the character needed. The action sequences, were neat, from the great Hydra battle, to the Percy fight against Luke. The effect went all to turn it into a epic. But not so much.

Knowing the film was made by the same man that brought the Harry Potter film(two of them). Kind took a slow move for this one. he didn't ruin it, cause there's some element that really follow the Greek myth. But it felt well out a place, for just being just another franchise to be made.

Fox have been struggling to turn a fantasy story, into a franchise. but failing it with . From Eragon, Seeker, and now they re taking huge risk on bridging the Narnia series back. Look i like their take on the whole Greek mythology, but they have to learn the only time that one tale was turn into kiddie like goes to Disney Hercules. And to be honest, it was good. So i bet there's a follow up coming(or not).

awesome fight, for a wasted story.

2010-02-10T21:53:00.000-08:00

yeah i know this film came out November, but remember my visa expired last august(stupid immigration system). Well it seem the famous producer(or something) Joel Silver, took the step to make a ninja film, with the cooperation of the guys that made the matrix. Went i heard this i got excited, from watching the trailer, to some killer scene. Seen it, what to i think of. I'm grabbing my katana i think i m slashing myself for this review:

The story is about a boy name Raizo(Rain), who was kidnap, and train to become a ninja, learning every techni until he's body stand it. On the night of the first killing, he was offer again to kill someone that have betray the clan, a girl. that refuse, and cut he's master instead. Now a young Euro pol agent by the name of mika(Naomie Harris) is on the case to find, and arrest this clan the problem is, she next on the their list. With star throwing sword slashing, and them some. Raizo come to her aid. Now is up to him to keep her alive ? With all the cuts, stabbing, and blood(cg type) will they make it until the end?

Well the acting is the same as average, the one that i really found it annoy is Naomi, man can that lady scream. If she were on horror flick, it suit her. But here, well lets just say cliche moment. Pop star sensation(of Korea i mean) Play it, now don't get offensive with it, the same stereotype silent samurai that every sword fighting movie have. I mean he's all dark, and ready for anything. But really is something that 's getting to much attention for a Asian star. I mean Rick Yune had something to say, with that evil voice, that really brought the cynical of he's character.

Now the story is written by one of my favorite J. Michael Straczynski, that he also wrote the Clint Eastwood The changeling, which was good. Well the story is splitting in two, the origin of Raizo training, to the rescue of Mika. I think the twist that follow, really devastated it. Reminding me on why Elektra didn't work. I mean the star is great, but it make ya wait like i don't know 30 minute for the action to star, but hey the flashback entertain(for a little). Until the film head to a more Luc Benson stage, where the true fireworks come. But hey is not all and bad.

I think the very heart of this film come with the fights. With the flash light scene, during the mika apartment scene, is karate shadow boxing. That i really dug. Also the chase sequence on the freeway, holy those were some hit that made me jump for joy, cause there's nothing then dashing them cars. And of course the very ending ones, from the brother scene, to the master, those were the pearls of the movies, that made me believe. But i like most te master one why, cause really they went all anime with it. from the flashing move, to the fast track decapitation. Something that only playing ninja gaiden could be seen.The only downside of it , goes to those cg blood. There's lot of it, in this film, but hey Hollywood made it, so why not. They should have went with the old school, not make believe

So there you have it, the film to accomplish somethings, but fail to tell a tale of revenge. But it wasn't supposed to be t big of deal of a film, i guest they just went with it, cause many people love em ninjas.But i prefer playing one, from the ninja gaiden, to everything that neo geo made of them. So hey there.

Really Seth made a sequel? Is funny, than he's acting career.

2010-02-05T00:20:00.000-08:00

In 2007 Seth Mcfarlane, made he own parody of Star wars: anew hope . Calling it the blue harvest, starring the family guy character, that made him so much richer. That a sequel needed to be made, so is the same story only this time is the take of empire strike back, with more gags, more filth, and yes that mcfarlane touch that all of us love, just this once i wanna see a mexican joke. Chicken robot did it. Ha take that.

Anywho is not worth my time to give a review so is best i give my top 10 best moment of the film, knowing that last only hour, and not two. See America that how Seth is richer, he shorten them, from become like me, a cheap bastard.
here's my tops:

10.-Peters robot chicken saying.

By the end of the film we see peter, till trying to pit off seth green.

of course this one was better, but although he really push when he try to tell

without a paddle. my god green what was that.

9.-What the hell with chewie?

I get the perversion that Brian have. But really did ya went over the top with the hug part. i mean Herbert was the only creepy guy that the show had. But ain't Brian the brains, and he's Lando remarks, holy white tail liking.

8.-Giant Chicken as Bobba Fett.

genius just genius, hoping if they make the third we see them fighting in tatooine.

7.-Choking someone nutsucks.

Wow Vader choking something else, man i mean Elton john could do it.

But i mean, wow but a black guy.

6.-R2-D2 intercourse.

well it was something unexpected, but it works. I mean he's black, they say is long for them.

But running with it, oh yeah, i going gay here.

5.-Giant boob nipple gun.

Finally someone have name it, cause it really look one. So star wars fan, that mean George Lucas have gone to a strip club, for inspiration.

4.-Imperial walker skinned knee

Yeah we have seen it in some family guy episodes, but it works went a walker does it.

3.-Star wars intro

By far the best into ever, in this franchise. I mean how they till complaining for being cancel, and how the are till rubbing it to fox, on how they lost this one franchise, that could have made them the really king of all USA. So Rupert is till...... say it at the end.

2.-Vader vs. Consuela

You never argue to a Mexican maid, cause they right, white people cant clean.

From the vacuum, to the Windex, Vader couldn't beat her. So what do you do?

keep arguing.

1.-Han solo Carbonite

The best gag, taken yer pants while been carbonite. Something the guys of south park of drawn together, could never make. And only Peter made it possible given it the best joke moment of all animated pictures(that go straight to DVD i mean).

So there you have it, i mean there's more. But I'm lazy bastard, i bet someone could do it better.

So to Seth the magnificent rich bastard that he is, brought something that no Star wars fan could do, turn it into a comedy. Plus showing us that black Jewish guy people exist.

And that's why Rupert Murdock is till kissing he's @$$.

The hughes Bro. when all faith, with out the gore.

2010-01-29T22:34:00.000-08:00

It seem lately post apocaliptic film have been making a wave lately.

From the beginning of the end of 2012, to vigo taking he's son to a safer place in the road, and angels trying to stop the second coming. Yes we all know that those film offer something, special effect, and drama(and i mean the road). But now the Hughes brother, makers of the gangster life of menace 2 society and dead president, make their own version, but what changes have, cause really it doesnt have any effect or drama, just a trip?

heres my faithful review:

Eli(Denzel Washiton) is a man with a mission, walking in the desolate, desert like, torch earth, that little of humanity have survive, facing marauders, and carnivals all time. While resting abandon houses,just eating, hearing music, and reading a book. But when he arrive town run by the rules Book collector, that have control of the water Carnegie(Gary Oldman), he take a interest to he talents, he try to recruit him. But when he discover the special book, leaving would be possible, if you have your fate. West is where Eli destiny is, and with Solare(Mina Kunis) at he side, there's nothing that stand in there way. Except Carnegie goons.

Denzel role goes all preacher here from saying a prayer in diner time, to really going all cowboy.

The character wasn't bad, but mysterious, by the step of the way you know so little not on he's character, but the world. Gary Oldman is a performance that i miss a long time, from playing the main bad guy of the film, something that the guys, taking notices the guys making the next James bond film, he's your guy. And Milas Kunis really felt the same cliche of the damsel in distress, twice, until she get some action time, that was just little.

Now on the story, now i have heard so manny story from books and comics, and some films, about delivering something. But the whole Christianity that the film have, really is off to me. I mean here's a guy who taking this book that somehow(spoiler alert) started a war, so they went all nazi and burn it. that next came a whole in the sky that torch the whole world. Pretty weird right.Well know it seem to me something that came straight out of the quest for fire. Yeah just without the caveman, i cant say no more cause those guys are trademark for Geiko. But anyway I think it would it been better, if Eli was actually was doing some right, knowing that he have so much faith in him. And really sold the show.

But the fight scene are one the best by far, it seem The combination, of some street fighting and some children of men shot brought, what i call a real time action. From the bar fight to the old couple stand off. It seem the Hughes brother wanna star making some action.

Now the style felt more of combine of the road meet the road warrior cause of the desert scenery, but come on they at least should have given some destruct city to go with.

Well to end, the film feel something that christian folk would love to see, but those that know the Hughes film, they should have added something new, cause really McDowell in a Einstein look, really scare the kids. So Yeah is a good film to just entertain, but it didn't brought down avatar.

Hey stay tune for more of my reviews i m heading to my 100's and less make fun on the bisexuality of today actress. By eating some tortas, a mexican delight.

later.

Kelly went all Space Oddissy

2009-12-16T23:39:00.000-08:00

Richard Kelly could very well been following the footstep, "That's weird" genre, from David Lynch to Cronoberg. Lately it seem Southland tales wasn't well receive from the public , to the critic. Now for he's third feature, he adding some star Cameron Diaz, some X-File element, and finally a box. Here's the review:

Virginia 1971, Lovely young couple was living their own life from the wife teacher Norma Lewis(Cameron Diaz) to the scientist husband Arthur Lewis(James Marsden). Enjoying it each moment, but when they started to have some financial problems. From cuts of the school, to the husband been rejected as astronaut. It seem nothing could save them, except when their door ring, introducing to a very scar 50 year old man calling himself Mr. Steward(Frank Lagella).

Offering them a chance for 1 million dollar, for just pushing a button, that we have the effect that someone in the world will die. Temptation rise, just to free then from their financial wows? And who's he's Mr. Steward? All the secrets lie in the box.

Well i got say, Cameron accent really impressive me here, from her gig as loving mother, to the suspense that follow. Is nice seen her getting some serious acting. James well didn't fit on the whole father and son relationship here, cause he was playing more of a Colombo type. Lagella really bring the mistery of the film, from the way he is introduce, to the way he's not really the villain of the film. The man have he's moment, but here knows he's act.

Now the story really center on the concept of temptation, and the discovery, that only twisted mind can know about. I mean you can really can get the whole(spoiler alert) lightning hitting scenario. Which every government agency is involve to. I mean it did focus much on the viking landing to Mars. But just pushing the button, where the suspense start. And well is not really explain on the whole thing. Kelly can do some strange thing, but here he really went with something that get lost in the mix.

With just minor touch water the effect, it seem Kelly has some sort fascination with water, that till doesn't make sense. i mean he used it on Donnie, but till confuse.

So is best see it with commentary, cause the film doesnt reach anything. You well be a scientist or something to get it. Kelly could very well be in a genre of he's own.

disney bring their true magic, only this time it have nothing todo with CGI.

2009-12-11T22:21:00.000-08:00

Disney have always been the king of animation pictures:
making snow white, sleeping beuty, little mermaid, and the grand masterpiece
beuty and the beast. But on star of the new century, pixar desthrone it, and brought a new style, that made them the surpreme rulers of the animation features. Now disney is recapturing the magic they had in the 90's, and doing it in the way, that only a true disney fan can enjoy:

New Orleans is the place, and the story begin. Where Jazz was born, and the celebration of Madi grass is anual tradition,that bring true magic of Louisssiana. where a young waitres is earning her money to open her very own Restaurant, Her name is Tiana(Anika Noni). Where she doesnt notice the arrival, of a very young errogant, womanizer, music loving Prince Naveen (Bruno Campos), he meet a man, that can promise him manny thing, money, women, a witch doctor Dr. Facilier(Keith Davis) only to be fool. One day Tiana is invited to a party of her best friend Charlotte(Jennifer Cody), where she meet a talking frog, that tell her if she kiss him, he we turn back to a prince. But soon we discover it come with a minor detail.
Tiana turn to a frog. Now they must find a way to return back totyheir human self, taking them to adventure where they meet the trumpet playing crocodile Louis(Michael-Leon Wooley) and the cajun firefly Ray(Jim Cumming)to find Mama Odi(Jenifer Lewis) and break the spell. So take a ride to the bayou, and discover the meaning of working hard and finding love, can take you.

For the voice acting was very New Orleans, from part of alll them especially of Michael Leon, where he loving of the trumpet brought the comedy of the film. And cumming became the very heart of the film, for he's interpretation of a timon like character. The enchantress of Anita voice, brought the true magic, of what a princes is. And the singing are something that only whitney houston could very be jealous off. The charisma of Campo gave the prince, truelly show of what the film trully is about(im sorry here, but i m not ready to go all girleyon the description). But it was great. And what can i say about keith Davis, love him on the spawn series, but the singing really doesn't qualified him.

The story really had a nice twist, with tiana turning to a frog,but didn't help wonder that it have the same plot point as another previous disney film call the little mermaid. The structure that it have follow as any disney film, that is know of, from the singing, to the drama that follow, but fell short, and not giving the time that the film needed. The witch doctor death it was to soon, and they didnt gave him enought spotlight on he's mishief. Imean hes the main antogonist, that follow the footstep of Capt. Hook, or otther disney villain. spoiler alert, The whole Kiss thing really confuse me, cause is suppose to be a princes that turn him, not a very Paris Hilton wannabe.

But the picture is save in the case of the supporting characters. But on the case of the comedy animation it have evolve, thank to pictures like Shrek, magdagascar, Up, Wall-E. that it have a very adult tone to it. Cause i felt that i knew what most of this character were going to. From the 3 hicks hitting themself, to the big butt, to how Louis was going to be receive by the human. Is all predicment. But hey it work.

Now the animatio, got go with Holy god christ, is finally to see back the 90's smooth animation that disney had. From the prince expression, that can only remind me of the warner brothers cartoons from Tiny toon, to Animaniac. To Louis singing and dancing in the bayou, that scene can only come from from the jungle book very own grey bear. And the water effect is something they should have use on the little mermaid. The dancing under sea seriously is something they wanted top off to the beuty and the beast scene, that got say didnt work. Is good to see their transition they did on the Tiana dream, going all bourlesque. Something that have done in Kung fu Panda.

So the film deliver something that nostalgic cartoon fan would wanna see. But the whole twist really felt it like the little mermaid. I m not saying they wanna bring the psark that made that film as a classic, but fell short. The movie will entertain the kids, but tyhe comedy will come short. On the age that tradition animation is being extint in the movie bizz. Cg reign surpreme, to the new mind making new , orinal story, to bringing a very new style of animation.
But you got to wonder, cg wouldnt be nothing, if only one man could have bring a drawing to life with just just moving a paper.

Now as for the story, i think went is about a fairy tale.
I m going on what Zenescope have.

I felt like reading a playgirl mag.

2009-12-04T23:00:00.001-08:00

Well it took them a year to make sequel, change the director, and release it. is it me, or is this turning into the next pirate gimmick. Thank to the now twilight phenomenon, it have turn its teen girl, into fangirl. Leaving the boys, nothing to sheer(except there is some nudity). The film already amounted more of 200 million, and growing some more. But is this film got some story in it?

Plot: Well is another episode of our lovely vamp couple Bella(Kristen Stewart) and the always pale Edward(Ropert Pattinson). From going to school together, to celebrating Bella birthday. Throwing a surprise party in the Cullen residence, she spill some blood, that make one member is giving by the temptation. So Edward breakups, turning her into adrenaline junking, just to see him again(he's ghost i mean). That's when native hunk Jacob(Taylor Lautner) comes to the rescue. Now a new love come to the picture, making her feel better. exploring he's world, from friends, to he's custom mechanic. Jacob turn out to be a keeper. But when he suffer some kind of puberty, from he's shape of hes body, to hes new hairdo. it scare her, only to witness, that in fact he's a wolf(not your typical wolfman, or even teen wolf). but just your average 2 feet long wolf. Making her more relax, but still scare. But when a Cullen member come to visit her, the whining and the drama start. Seem Edward want to die by the hand of the most powerful vampire family the Italian volturi. So they reject him, so he start to make a scene, to die of course. So is up to Bella to stop him, but Wolfy boy want her to stay?

What should Bella do?

OK, lets get the acting first, like always Kristen performance play out as your average teen girl drama queen, her feeling is broken. Man Kristen stewart can do it better. Even in a TV series. Then there's till the Robert that play out even worst, cause he's heart is broken by the whole separation. And he wanna die. Shhh bato get some friend and talk about, in a more of redneck way. Then there's the Taylor act, there's nothing to say just abs abs and more abs. this guy should have, been training with the same stunt double of 300's to get them.

OK i got to confess first i did like the first, cause of the pact that the native had with the Cullen had. Turning it into a very woody version of underworld, but the drama,was till soap opera.

Now i felt this one was a rehash of the last, only from the Jacob perspective. And the he's world, from he's friend, to the intro of one girl that got claw. I mean they could have started something there, but hey is more of a crying of Edward and Bella. I mean the film is not even marked by Mtv. Making it a teen movie, but more of relationship that cant never be. Oh brother try to see true blood, they got something that twilight don't, a real story. The makers want this to be seen, to a more feminine demographic. I mean all i heard in the theater, crying from teen girl, all dreaming to be Ed side. But wait there's Jacob character, that's where thing turn to chip and dale moment. Making it look more soft porn. period. Now what i did like of the film, was the action, from the wolf hunting, to Edward fighting scene. I mean the fast nest that it had, it only remind me of the Popeye fight. with the same cloud appearing with fist flying around. But it was low, but i give them credit, for studying how a true wolf fight. thank you animal planet.

So i m not the right guy from seen it. But i bet ye can get someone better, that have some love for the film, and have more of a girl perspective. Cause really if you a guy and see it, then that mean that your girlfriend drag you.

So i m gonna make a short closing, and say this:

I really hated it.

Zombie teaches you the way how horror film is made.

By just knowing how good the first one was, there were no telling on how my legs were shaking. Sequel are any director worst nightmare, cause how can you make a follow up to it. Coppola did it great with the godfather, than Singer did wel with the second x-men movie, Now there's someone to add to the list. It all start with a white horse, that take us to the mind of not just the devil, but a monster, here the review, with no forgines:

1 year have pass from the first, Laury Strodehave (Scout Taylor Compton)change her appearance from a sweetheart to a hard core rocker, living with her only surviving friend Ani, and taking lot a therapy, it seem the her nightmares of that day she met her brother star to haunt her, while Dr. Loomis(Malcom Mcdowell) the only psychiatrist that help Michael, is enjoying he fame from he new book receiving publicity, but also getting hate from the ones that ewre lost. News broke that Michel Myer body vanish. Halloween is coming and are tall, white masking killer take a walk, to visit once again her sister, and killing anyone stand before him. Guide with the illusion and serenade voice of her mother(Sheri Zombie), while Laury dreams start change her way, that only secret will make her who truly she is. And Michael will show us why family come first, than anything.

The acting was very simple, and but typical for a horror movie. Malcom perfomances not the finest, but i think, he could have been more obsessive in this one rather enjoying of the fame.

And Sheri doesn't have much dialogue but her she really play it out as just a ghost. The new kid didn't show the fear of the young Michael from the first, but just like more of a extra.

Well acting aside the story was the true core for this picture, Zombie went more deeper to the Psyche of Myers and he's victims. I m gonna go all psichy here, but i bet with the trauma that Laury had, have turn into nightmares, tormenting her to all the way to her sanity, that she started to envision the way of a killer, that's my theory. As for the white horse is something new i have never heard in the psychology community. Ok then well it was great to show a very hobo michael, that i think Rob himself got into the killing. Only this time they were mend to disturb, not scare, but to disturb. From Knifing a nurse, to making one of the most suffering scene, that actually they don't show it, but you can only imagined. The drama, when on strong when Laury discover the secret, that only Loomis could ever wrote. The vision is something that i have to say let this man direct Alice in Wonderland.

The dream scene were something, that i cannot wait and see a fantasy film made by Rob. Were nicely stylize taking from Gothic to some surreal, making it feel more of a 30's classic horror film, from Nosferatu's to the classic phantom of the opera. By personal best shot is the slow motion to Ani death, by far the most torturing moment of the film, proving that this was made to make you suffer.

Rob out done himself, by understanding the mind of what a monster really is. The film went on to show some of the tormented scenery, that only you can remember it in the Freddy films.

The knowledge of what the film is really about, show that there are somethings that we don't know. For me the true meaning of horror, is just losing your mind. And Rob have done it.

Lets go to Quentinland, and kill some nazis.

2009-08-29T12:00:00.000-07:00

On today society, killing Nazi have become a trend. From movies(the drama ones), to cartoons, and video games. There always ways one can make them look different, but pulling a bullet in their head is the entertainment, and you don't need to be a jewish. So now Mr.Tarantino bring us a fictitious story, that only took only 10 years to write and to make, and boy it look fun killing Nazi, especially with a baseball bat. So sit back and read the review, i bet ya how many times i put the word of basterd:

In occupy Frances, the tyranny of the Nazi were cruel, unforgiving, and bastardize(i don't know if that even a word). Hunting the Jewish, causing fear to people and their bread, proving their superiority over the weak. And the man doing it is the best hunter of Jewish lead by Col. Hans Landa(Christoph Waltz). That's where a certain Lt. Ado Raine(Brad Pitt) form he's on elite of the soldier to be drop down in France, to torture, mutilated, kill them until they don't move, and live one alive with a scar swatika in he's forehead. Calling them's the basterds. But when they get info from a German double agent Briget Von Hammermark(Diane Krueger) that all the highest rank of the third reich are attending a premier. And making thing more sweeter the Fuhrer is gonna be there. Is time to practice your Italian and explode the joint, killing every swattika lovingsoque te in the movie, but what they don't know , someone have already got a surprise of it on?

Well they better get those 1o0 scalp, cause when it come to killing Nazi their bunch.

The women of the film are really the breakout star of the film, from Diane great imitation of 20's classic actress, and of course the little Melanie Laurent, gave a very kill bill feel that everybody knows. Brad Pitt Plays a great south Popeye act, with some of the funnies line that no one can repeat. Eli Roth No wonder he became a great Horror director for just been the bear. But my salute go to Christoph as the hunting, detective, polite Col Nazis, that make him the best Quentin villain since Samuel Jackson in Pulp Fiction. Oh yeah it seem the Austin accent of Michael Myers gave him a job too.

Great dialogue the film have making it more fun to watch the 2hour and half. The character cannot, and will not match of any war world 2 movie. The violence's was kind low, but new when it came to the scalp cutting, and of course Eli. Great knowledge of German movie, the Nation pride i dont know if such film even exist, i mean really just shooting all the time, they should have hire uwe for that movie. Also on the knowledge of the implacable movie pictures. Great homage to other fictional ww2 picture from the dirty doze, to anything John Wayne was on.

I wanted see more action and massacre of the basterd. Something i think Quentin didn't focus much. I till consider Kill bill 2 better than the 1st, cause of the dialogue, but in any ww2 you need to add some action. Having more fun on the killing of the Nazi.

The camera angles are some the best specially when it came to the rotation shot in the theater, from the location, to the close ups on everything, i think the choking of Krueger was by far the disturbing on any Taratini film. it seem theirs more than just Grind house film on Mr.Quentin than anything else.

Well by far the best film of the summer, with sequels, and new franchise rising. It seem the definition of cinema is been forgotten, bless with got someone that remember the way they are.

With a possible prequel coming, we could see more on the adventure of this elite(even if they are one). But when it come to he's definition of ww2 movie, he just needed to ad some south to the picture and make it RAD.

This is how E.T. would react.

There have been a lot invasion story coming from comics, books, movies. But so little when it come to making contact, Peter Jackson bring as something so very unique that only him could elaborate, and with a help of a new director of course name Neil Blomkamp. Showing a alternative version of the immigration problem happening in Africa. The world is watching for this review:

In 1982 a spacecraft appear in Johannes, South Africa. In which man discover a new raise of alien, calling them the prawn. In which they were found them in horrible condition. Helping them by giving full and water, they were settle in a nice camp call District 9. But the citizen of Johannes weren't all please cause of the trouble they were starting, from the looting to the rioting. But the district was also changing to a slump, were the crime rule supreme, making harder to the visitor to live,from giving weapon in exchange for food. Now the world appointed the second weapon manufacture to relocate the Prawn to their new home, the MNU Multi-Nation United promote to one of their employ of the alien affair to Wikus De Merwe in charge of the operation. Heading to the District the world watch est on how the prawn live, how they battle for food, knowing they are being evicted. From burning their breeding houses, to making some arrest those who hide weapons, but when 2 in particular start mixing some chemicals, the MNU is at the door waiting to see what inside. Mr. De Merwe discover a can that will turn him into the most valuable fugitive for he's company. What secrets lie in district, and what effect is gonna have to Mr De Merwe life?

Sharlto Copley play a sympathetic, and kind like that boss who just wanna be your best friend(like Steve Correll in the office) that you really feel bad for what is happening. Is a great protagonist for this kind of film, especially for one that is been hunting down by he's own company. The relationship that he have with he's father in-law, make why he is always nervous.

The concept that film follow about the immigration is something good. There been many films that follow from Babylon to Borderland, but only focusing on the Mexican immigration. Just thinking that segregation was left behing in the 60's. But not in Africa, from the way of life, from scavenging in the thrash, to the wave of crime that happens, and of course the thing they do to survive. Neil come from south Africa it was good seen the perspective on how thing work. Stylising it with a documentary start the film feel so real, like is really happening, then later turn it into a thriller a la fugitive. The scenery that the film have is almost of Brazil film city of god, from the thrash and the debris that the prawn live, make ya wonder that how we treat foreigners? i kind like the twist when the use Wikus to test the alien weapons, only showing again that major corporation are always in for the money. Thank you Michael Moore.

Man the action that the film have it was made for the Halo project that went flat. from the variety of weapon they show, from ray gun that turn ya into gug, to a pulsar gun that will give will smith little gun from Man in Black a run for the money. The massacre could only come from the vision of Peter Jackson, comparing it to he's first film, you can only say that's Bad taste. period. Ok i havent forgot of the mecha, i mean watching it in action, make me to get in one too.this is truly the excitement of the film, shooting a lot of mercenaries to some turning them into water. it can only be compare to the robocop 2 that really is cain, the bad guy of Robocop 2.

Alien contact are follow like in films Alien nation, ID4 to third kind. But they bring something new and original, the secret that the film have since it premier of the trailer in may. Peculiar on the subject of what the film was all about, already hail from the critic there's no surprise on why there's few films take the risk showing something that only the audiences would only understand.

Jackson prove again that there's is originality in films specially in the sci-fi genre. With the same statics on making a documentary and turning it into something that only a child could dream up. Seriously is time to discover the new talent that are coming to Hollywood, salute to Neil for he's first film.

Aint this the 90's joes.

2009-08-07T22:06:00.000-07:00

G.I.joes was a toy line that i love since my childhood. From the weapon they had, to the vehicles. they are the best defence against the evil organization call Cobra.
Now they have a movie, that follow the greatest threat that humanity will ever face, and only a secret squad can only stand them, with a little joke aside thank to a certain Marlon Wayans, and of course to the brilliant (comedian) director of Stephen Sommers. Does this army follow the same continuity that of the cartoon or the comics? or they do the unthinkable make snake eye talk? here's my review:

Mars Company have just developed the first nanobot weapon, that have the capacity to devour everything, any kind of material, until nothing is left. Giving to Duke(Channing Tatum) and his convoy to protect it, and transported, to a near site, until they re ambush by a certain group led by woman in black call by the baroness(Sierra Miller) that have a past with our hero. All of sudden a new team save them, retrieving the packages and saving them. With nowhere to go, they head to the Sahara desert, were the secret headquarter is. Run by General Hawk(Dennis Quaid) G.I.JOE is a secret army that doesnt answer to no one, training the best of everyfield, soldiers that come from every part of the world. Facing any kind of menace that have existed. So when CEO of Mars McCullen (Christopher Eccleston)inst please to what happen, he try to invade it instead with a little help of two more enemy the ninja for hire Storm shadow(Byung-hun Lee) and the disguise Zartan(Arnold Vosloo) , which successfully they get. Now is a matter of time until they activate the nanobot, and used it in any part of the world?
And what relationship that duke have with the baroness and he's brother?
Mount up to fight, cause this is only the beginning of a war.

it seem the serious acting went to Tatum, being the center protagonist of the film than Dennis Quaid, and of course Eccleston that really pull of that evil business attitude that same of Michael Douglas in wall street. Marlon Wayans really as a soldier, he felt something that came from Ivan Reitman Stripes, cause this man couldn't shut up, making him as the joke of the film. He should have given some acting like in Requiem. Adewale when all stuff on this one, he wasn't bad thank to the training scene that he give, bad just one scene we see him shooting a big gun.Sierra Miller didn't impress me as the baroness cause been as a bad girl doest fit so much. Scarlet play by Rachel Nichols was giving that the same cliche act of tough woman later turning to sweet girl that star to care. Really felt something out of a John Hughes film. I think the real treat that we have to go snake eye play by Darth Maul himself Ray Park and storm shadow Byung-hun, being the popular character of the G.I.Joe roster. Silent does qualified for good acting so does serious face.

O.k the action was play out something out of a Michael Bay film but with snoring of Cg. Sommers is recognized by he use of effect on the action sequences. For the Paris chase scene, it seem like he always wanted to use some bullet time effect. The accelerators was very neat idea, but some of the action play out fake. The jumping scene of duke was awesome, but for Marlon getting hit every time, real make ya lose the excitement. Now Scarlett guiding arrow scene, was something that one was expecting, thank to today technology. Igot say it wasnt bad seen the Eiffel tower falling, to the high flying of Marlons it accomplish. The underwater battle scene it so similar to the naboo fighters of the phantom menaces. But i wont avoid the great Kung fu action that it have thank to (again) Ray and Byung.

Now i didn't like the relationship that duke had with the baroness, i mean she supposed to be the love of Destro. And what about the whole nanotech, i mean i have read about, and there's actual test going. But i felt is something that wasn't well play. Another thing since when is Ripper the love interest of Scarlett, i mean I'm not a racist, but snake eye get her or duke. Than there's the Rex character play by third rock Joseph Gordon, that he give he's worst Darth Vader interpretation, than later turning to Jason X, i mean serious. The hologram thing is something that i found cool, but the needle in a guy head, who's wrote this? Sommers directed this films based on the 90's version that really brought the cartoon down, but the action had the 80's feel.

I not saying the film is bad, but just the acting, from the nanotech to the accelerators the film guarantee entertainment. There's no drama to be found in the picture but just slapstick jokes, which Sommers is well know. I dig Van Helsing, yeah you read it, i love it. But the film is more of a army film, it should have follow as many, from Black hawk down, to hell even G.i. jane,(with out the male nudity). But of course is bade on a toy line, so of course is target to kids. But doesn't mean it should be a letdown. A least they should have ended with one their famous PSA. that would have been funny.

The Joes have many reincarnation, from the best 80's cartoon to the what were they thinking when they turn them to Extreme, than later to sigma six, which became good. The series is well know by the many character that it have but i should have love to see some dreadnought. Expecting a sequel to follow the film could change, but the way the fan or the audience that are new to the series, may change. Of course this year is not the movie tat they did, but a new exclusive web animated series written by the man that could ran Brian Michael Bendis money, Warren Ellis, call: G.I.JOE Resolute check it at YouTube. Making ya remember what the Joe was all about.

Next stop District 9 and on Wednesday check out my segment on bisexual in Hollywood, i be making comparing them with tortas, see ya then.

Till darker, but this time there's a surprise

2009-07-16T17:02:00.000-07:00

What i always love of the franchise, that in every movie it star with the memorial music, that it have a lullaby feel to it. Well with 5 movies done, the boy with the lightning scar on he forehead, come with another adventure, with new mischief thank to Tom and Hermione. But only this time the suspense is much more higher than he's last, and the surprise that serious change everything. But knowing that is started out as a kid movie, now is something beyond it, i pick my wand to give you my Review:

Another year star in Hogwart school of wizardry, where Harry Potter(Daniel Radcliffe) and he's friends Hermione(Emma Watson) and Ron(Rupert Grint) that await for them another adventure only this time, Harry will discover new spell, and potion when he find a book, that was belong to the half blood prince, that hold the most powerful, and darker magic. But when a new teacher Prof. Horace Slughorn(Jim Broadbent) replace Prof. Severus(Alan Rickman) in portion class, Prof. Dumbledore set Harry to investigate him, cause he may hold the key to stop and destroy the dark master. While Ron became the new star of the quittitch, he begin to have some girl problems, that only Hermione cannot confes her true feeling. As for Harry arch nemesis, Draco(Tom Felton) begin to sneak to the hogwart attic where he practice a special spell to a closet, that hold the downfall of everything. Will Harry find out the secret that Dumbledore is looking from horace? Who is the Half blood prince? and Will Hermione finally express her feeling to Ron?

Well if you read my Top ten summer movies you know how feel for the series, but hey first the acting, it was great they put one of my favorite character that is Luna, the pale, and strange girl, till can see thing only this time wearing some 3d spect, she very well be the Tim Burton tone that the movie needed. Daniel, Emma, and Rupert till reprise the roll well, till the detectives that always get the case close. But got say it was Rupert that steal the show this time. With he's girl problem it set the comedy to be the true entertainment. But it was the silly and the always forgetting Prof Horace play by Jim Broadbent, felt the same sense humour have watching a play.
So here hoping will get to see more of him in the other films. Now Michael Gambon role for Dumbledore took the center stage on the adventure, as becoming the true mentor of Harry, something that was building up since the first, which most of the drama came from him, and well done i say. And finally far the best i gotta handed to Tom Felton that also take the spotlight as he character really have grow into something that most teens aren't proud, the suffering the doubt and the secret made him as the next baddie that the Potter universe was waiting for.

Now the Story most of the comedy went to Ron Problem with girl, from the time he make he's try out as the new quittich new defend, and that crazy admire that really bring the snokom(i dont know what that mean). The new teacher like i mention before is the most fun since Kenneth Branagh of the chamber of secret. Now the drama was something that truly lead to something from the moment you watch the flashback that we meet a very young Tom Riddle, to where he discover a spell that leave him immortalize. The chemistry between Harry and Dumbledore, was something that can only be remember since star wars episode 6, of Luke have the same mentoring of Obi Wan.

Now the effect where like always astonishing in the aspect of the brige effect, when the dark smoke fly by, only to brake, but the best have to go to Dumblebore fire tornado, in the water caves, remind me of the ten commandment, when Moises rise the water. As for the quittich scene, somebody have been watching lot Soccer. And they say American don't like that sport. Knowing they got a all female team that won a cup.

So i felt there was more action missing, knowing that the screenplay is adapted by the 6th book of this series, i think it was more of a detective story. But hey since from the first to the 2nd it always had that feel, but since the prisoner of azkaban that all change, making it more of adventure line. But got say it was the secrets, that sold me. And the surprise that await on the end really left me breathless. The acting is good with the same teen drama that most follow.

Well with the final chapter split into two, there's more that we can see. The serious is already been replace by another supernatural something that involve Vampire, but doesn't mean it have lost it vibe. From today fan they will certainly enjoy this one. As for me is till not the best, cause really is to dark till.

Next stop yo joe.

What i said in 2006, stay corrected thank to this film.

2009-07-14T18:43:00.000-07:00

Well the anticipation for the next Sacha film is here, so to give you a update to who he is. Borat came to America, and to our heart when he's film premier in america, and laughing anything about it. It cause a sensation, that every body started to quote him. Yes the mustache foreign, with a mustache that is so rugger than any carpet of sea world cannot be compare. Make another movie only this time on a Austrian gay Fashionista, based on he character on the Ali G show days, He explore the secrets on what makes a star? so here's my veview, i mean review:

Bruno is everywhere when it comes to fashion week, Bruno knows what in and out, Bruno knows the latest fashion around the world, for been the host of he own TV show, until he ruin a fashion walk in Milan, thank to what he was wearing (velcro). He set out to Hollywood to become a star. From giving a interview to American Idol Paul Abdul, while sitting on a Mexican, to becoming a extra on show, while smoking, to even choosing he's own charity, that involve uniting the Jewish and the palestine, so he decide to make a detour to Africa, where coming back to U.S.A., brings a baby in a box, giving the star potential that will put him on a talk show in Texas. But when he's baby is taken away, thing gets more chain. From going to a anti gay protest, to been handcuff in a buss. Broken he find a way to even make himself famous, to get a wife. Seeking a counsel that guide him to be a hetero, from fighting anybody does it gay, to becoming a soldier, to even joining a swinger club, that get him whip a lot, by voluptuous blond(i just add that). 8month past, that now he's straight, and hosting a MMA fighting event, but when someone from the audience call him the f word, he challenge him, discovering that is he's old assistant?
Will Bruno confront him? Or will he stay with the straight mustache?

Im a Borat fan, so i will say the bad thing later. Right now lets talk about what the fun apart, that will make a Mexican(like me) exercise more the back. Sacha hit another with Bruno, i got give him credit, from acting as true everyday gay or someone take the gay thing way to serious. From making her show to a group of audience, where even he private part say he's name. To making he's first interview with Paula, that really challenge Family Guy creator Seth Macfarlane on the Mexican jokes, hell he even got Sir Elton John sitting on one. To trying get kidnap by some Arabians terrorist, that really not even Bush couldn't do. To what is the infamous adoption since, Woody Allen marry one. Sacha went with all on this ones. It have never been done on how the road to popularity could be so fun. Even with the many dildos that it have, yes is explicit, yes is outrageous, and yes is fun till the end.

The downside that i fell on this one it was so repeated to he's previous one, if you make the same similarity it pretty much follow the same plot, only more gayier. the provocative that it have is different, but the way is told, well is the same. The assistant character is the same thing, that Borat had with he's producer, but of course it didn't involve plaything. And the outrageousness that he have in the swinger club is the same on the dinner scene of Borat. But on this one it have skin. Bruno may or could be the it of this year, but follow the same remedy.

So what ever character Sacha could come up, it will make money in the theater. But will provoke, and laugh all at the same time. But trying to repeat the same phenomenon, is something that already gives the joke away. But till give him credit to what he brought on this one, a lot gay entertainment, and the homophobia that America have, well a least the south.

there was blood, but missing a lot

2009-07-10T19:28:00.000-07:00

There were a lot flaw when it came to the original anime movie that is based on. Now the same producer who brought back the kung fu for cinema, take a crack to the anime and turn it into actual movie. Manny have try in turn something that came from the land of the samurai, and the hentai(Dont ask). That only a independent studio could do it. But with the budget, actors, and story did they made justice, even having one of the finest fight choreographer of Asia, to more? Here the review:

IN 1970 America was in war, in air base somewhere in china, a new transfer student is starting he's first day. Saya(Gianna Yun) is a very quiet and serious person that she always carry a tube on her back, when she see a fellow student been harass by two class mate in the school gym, she just hit the tube with a kick, catching a sword that came out, and star decapitating. Last of her raice Saya work for a secret organization call the council, dedicated to find and kill the blood sucker that have the name of demons. But now when news get, that the mother of demons come for a feast, Is time for some good old sweet payback. But with a general daughter Alice(Allison Miller)caught in the battle, when agent council go all rogue, is time for sentiment to be fill will Saya get her vengeance or saving her only friend change everything?

Benn a Asian film pretty much of the acting fell something coming out of a Chevy Chase movie. New star Gianna felt like the kind of act that bruce Lee did on the enter of the dragon, with lots of mispelling, and with saliva too. Allison part, fell something out of the CW drama series. The cleaners were the true stereotype of the film. Cause really have manny movie had have that, from the matrix to the Jack Ryan movies, just leaving everything spotless. they should cast Mr.Clean.

Now the fight sequences where nice chorea graph, from the street fight, that really bring some of the classic kung fu fighting, to even the Kato fight, With some old school ninjas. But the moves felt kind of repeated, however using little wire work, the street fight felt the most exciting, cause the Saya can use a street car, with a lot kicks. There was more deception when it came to some sword fighting, that really you have to wait until the end of the film, when came to the mother of all the demons. That felt very similar to the last battle of Dark City, with the shouting and the pushing. And you don't need to be psyche for it. The fight are the selling point for the movie. Only i was expecting more to the final confrontation.

The story does some resemblances to the Anime, from the Gym fight to the first demon slashing, but i felt confuse when it came to the curiosity of the general over the Council men. The movie try to represent another teen thriller, with the acting that it have, and since when Saya care for somebody. Cause i recon on the anime she was more bad ass then caring, like Diesel on Riddick. Knowing that the movie is much longer than of the anime. The story leave lots loop hole, from going rogue with the council to suddenly seen who her mom is.

And finally the cg of the movie, is not a Hollywood thing, but it felt it was more stop motion a la Ray Harryhausen. I mean it was the lighting that need the twit for . But the desing need work cause really they look like a dry up bald NBA superstar.

So my final verdict is there no justice neither the comic or even the anime, the fight sequences are good, but some recycle. The acting made it more of a teen comedy, than the story that follow it. The only thing that was missing was the connection that Saya had with christ, cause every time she hear that name, anger come out of her. Guest was something that the censor, or even the director wouldn't touch. Even the Asian got no business on that.

johny Deep is John Dillinger, what Humphrey Bogart was in Casablanca

2009-07-01T16:28:00.000-07:00

You know is strange there's a movie right, showing the same thing of today. What to a mean by that. The 30's the great depression, the prohibition years, were news are turning into tabloids, and were projected in theater's. But is not about that, famous action director, Michael Man come back for he's next shoot out film starring Johny Deep, and Christian Bale, playing the game of cat and mouse in public enemies, reviving the 30's in their own fashion:

John Dillinger(Johny Deep) is mouth talking, charismatic,lady's man, bank robber, knows many ways to escape prison. Living the fast lane pursuing everything that he ever wanted. With a gang at he side, he was unstoppable on every height he did. Turning him into the number one gangster of America. That all change When bureaucrat J. Edgar Hoover try to create the first bureau of investigation, declaring war against crime, were a certain marshal is giving the job to bringing justice to Dillinger. Agent Melvin Purvis( Christian Bale) following he's popular reputation, he form a team to follow any lead or clue where he could be. But when the untrained eye get the best of them the heat fall to agent Purvis, is time to call to the profession. Dillinger enjoy he life to the fullest, with a dame at he side Billie Frechette(Marion Cotillard), nothing could go wrong? Except friends dying every where, and some they don't know ya. Time change, crime change, becoming Public Enemy.

Between Johny and Christian going southie on for this role, ain't that bad bad. Following the same step of the 30's movies, with the wise acting to the same grim style that it have. first Deep charisma, fun enjoying persona,is the true entertainment. The man can very well be your date for the prom, with a similar act that he did on what eating Gilbert grape, but with a upgrade. Oscar winner Marion give the chemistry that really make the innocence of the film.Christian bale seriousness southie act, give the true suspense of the film, so does he team, with the determination that drove him to do he's job, but till is nothing out of the ordinary on this one.

The camera work is pretty much the same style of the old black n white news footage's that they show in the movie. I t have always been the signature tone that's Man have done on he's previous film, from collateral to Miami Vice. But the music, that's where he deserve much of the respect for, that really give you that vibe of the 1930's.

For the story it focus most on how Dillinger made he's escape, from talking the guard clothes, to fooling everyone that he had a gun(knowing that it was made of wood). To taking him to stardom, from just being capture. But also what made this film interesting the creation of the FBI. That Hoover struggle so much to form, trying to convince congress to do. But more importantly the method they used to interrogate, and find clues. From making deal with the crooks, to even pushing the limit of the mob. The action sequences are the best but ore when it came to the ambush of night,felt the same shoot out of the heat but retro looking, but what really was exaggerating was how much lead that baby face needed to go down, it felt like the guy on the arrow in the neck of kingdom of heaven. the scenery that most of the gun fight seem forgiving from the perspective of the crooks.

So if you know the way Michael Man make films, then there's nothing new to it, except for the acting. Cause most of the action sequences are really long and sometime, not so believable. But hey he have done great crime films, from heat to this one, cause the 1930's scenario was something that he really focus on especially for a film like this.

Megan Fox, hot body. The end.

2009-06-23T19:49:00.000-07:00

With the sequel of the 07 hit, which launch her career, she make seconds on this one. While making promotion tour all around the world, the only thing that this actress can do, is whine, cause many folk are comparing her to Angelina Jolie. But hey what about the film, oh yeah i forgot, Michael bay bring back the famous robot in disguise, but introducing a new villain that never made a appearance in the classic cartoon, but just in the toy line, and it come with a twist since when is megatron a pupil? Here the transformation to the review:

Two year have past, now the transformers have join with the army, to form a special unit call NEST. Their mission to hunt down all around the world the remaining decepticon, casualty are high, but saving lives is the first priority. Until the governor star to questioning the methods of the whole operation, on why there's till decepticon coming? But for optimus, he's only concern is the arrival of the fallen. Meanwhile Sam Witwicky is preparing and packing up to go to college, until something drop from he's backpack, a piece of the all spark, giving him knowledge of new source of energy that only the Alien Machines are interested. While a decepticon satellite hack to the world communication revealing info about the remaining piece of the all spark, by sending one of he's ravager, they manage to steal it, and starting the resurrection of Megatron. Back in college Sam discover that he been having vision of words, that are connected to something that really make him the target to the decepticon, So once again he will need the help of the auto bots, and he's friends to keep him safe, that's until one key member die. Changing everything, so now Sam must rely on himself and he new roommate Leo, to find the only person that can help him to decipher the words that he have seen. Taking them from New York to Egypt, while the martial law is call upon the Autobots. Will humanity fall at the hand of the fallen and hes decepticon? Or they will find a source or a key that can bring back the one that can defeat them? Autobots roll out. The fallen came.

Ok how can you see i dint actually mention the actors, cause there weren't. Shia lebouf play he best shaggy interpretation on this one by the screaming, and the running, but he's new friend make the best gag of the film, new comer to the series Ramon Rodriguez, making homage to the famous 07 web video"Don't Stace me bro" and doing it on the nuts, even better when he join former sector 7 agent John Turturro. That really become the Anthony Anderson of the film now. From he obsession of alien coming to earth to going all squad leader. Now there were some actual acting from part of Megan Fox, Not Oscar worth, but fun as much, ah who am kidding, her beauty is till intact, even better when you see her running in slow motion, but the one really lets it all out is Isabel Lucas as the decepticon spy fembot, i think her role was short but it work for the men. Hey i know really there's no real acting, the whole thing play out as a scooby do episode, but wonder not cause is Michael Bay film that mean-

Lots of action, and this time they went global, from the world domination to introdusing lots decepticon and autobots. From the opening of the film that take place in hong kong to the climax stand off in Egypt. The explosion were there every moment even the fighting were better than of the first. Best moment go to the new upgrade that optimus get, to showing off the latest military tech. It was the double the dust that rise on this film. even better when it came to the military forces facing off against the decepticon. You gonna see some tank firing that have never seen before(if you count any anime film have ones). It felt more like more of a military film, showing off what they got, and why they want to recruit you.

Ok enough with the action cause the one making them are the star of the film, it was finally time to show what sound wave can do beside making fun of him on a episode of robot chicken, they turn him to a satellite, that really went well, even better seen that he till hold he's famous cassettes minions like ravagers, that design of a puma mix with the alien rule. The twins Mudflap and skid play as the twosome destroy some, is like a cross of the wayans brothers and their films, they were the fun streak of the movie, from the way they speak to the way they fight even better when finally they get some action against the devastator. Hugo weaving voice role of Megatron was longer, which gave the evil that first one need it. But is Peter Cullen who end up been the Godfather to the film and bringing that 80's feel to it. John Tuturoo voicing the age old jetfire was fantastic,, voicing a retired decepticon is nothing to fart about cause trust me there is some of it. And everybody favorite Bumblebee till continue been the sidekick. My only complain is why they turn RC to a bike and not into a car, cause she could look so good in pink covert, and it would be better see the autobots taking on the humungousaur of the devastator, then John "I die for my country"Turturro? cause really it wasn't necessary seen the ball(just see the pyramid scene, you get me).

The story this time was darker just like they said, but it was cool. Cause if you dont know your G1 cartoon then really ye ain't from that generation. I mean the new team up of the military and the Autobots, was great way the story needed to go, and bringing some element from the first transformer animated movie was perfect. The decepticon role were the main focus, even better when it came to the true relation that megatron have with starscream, ahhh memory. The backstory that it have was perfect, the many mysterious that our history have, and evolve with the many modern age vehicles that been made. Nice touch, the film really felt like true 80's episode. Well done.

So now that most of the focus is gonna be on Mega Fox chest, there's nothing to complain about. Except in recent news that this will be Bay last tranformer film, cause he wanna move on other project. Well i don't know to say about that, cause this one was perfect than the first. But the man knows he's art. The third one is waiting in the corner to be made, and who know what director will continued it.

With today economic many of this automobile company are going out of business, is good to know that their vehicle will see the light of day, with new bosses i mean. The action is better, expect to see lot of transformers this time. expect many surprises to come. And yes Mega Fox will till be there.

Next stop Bruno, ahh is good to be gay(fan i mean)

Yeah that's what happen in vegas, in movie term.

2009-06-06T18:57:00.000-07:00

is been a long time since we have seen Todd philips directing a film, with success as old school, and the infamous starsky n hutch. He started to produce other movies.
Well now he set the director chair to a place where man, can only forget about everything, where weddings are way cheap than a 99cents stores, gambling is a art of math, than just counting carts, and where big paper view event are premier, than Mari ah Carey concert. In the mortal words of John Favreau 's swingers Vegas, Vegas baby. Here's the review.

Is Doug(Justin Bartha) last night as a single man, so a bachelor party is on demand and what better place to do than in Vegas. Made by he's friend's the con school teacher Phil(Bradley Cooper), the wife dentist pet Stu(Ed Helm), and he's weird brother in law Alan(Zach Galifianakis). They spend a night in one of vegas luxurious resort Cesar palaces. By the time they settle in their sweet, a toss is made, but after that, they wake up in their room all mees up, with a chicken running around, a living tiger in the bathroom, a baby in the closet, a missing mattress, but they realize that Doug is missing, so a quest begins that take them to more mischief from stealing a police car, to getting arrested for it, to show kids how to use a taser gun. But wait there's even more, a Asian gay guy who was inside their car drunk, to even one of them getting marry to a stripper call Jade(Heather Graham), to even winning a 80thousand worth of poker chips. They have to follow the clues to find the man, and get to the wedding a fast, as Elvis painkiller jar. "What ever happen in Vegas, stay in Vegas, except herpes cause that stays forever"-.Sid Garner.

The cast for this film is just outrageous, if you think what Todd did to Assembling a comedy cast in Old School, than this is true follow up. Bradley Cooper did a stunning performances as the negotiator/rebel of the bunch, he very well be the next Vince Vaughn with the smart acted style.With he's already fun acting in the offices as the over emotional Andy, well on this one he's actually the conservative one, until he's tooth is gone missing that turn him into the whiner of the bunch, making him the second best of the film. But where have Zach have bee? From making web interviews funnyordie.com, to making TV shows, this man deserve a star in Hollywood walk of fame, with he's odd remark, to moving a baby hands(don't ask), to getting punch by Iron Mike. Hes beard stays in all the film. But lets not forget Mr.Chows Ken Jeong godfather act, play it pretty pink, if you love him as the king in Role model, than you will love he's scream and behind. And one more thing i can believe Heather Graham is still a hottie.

So what you need to see the film, from the tazer in the face Zach, to taking a sleeping tiger to the owner house. There's a million of thing that make this film a great Martini drink. Following in step as films road strip, and Old school, is the million thing that can happening Vegas. From the Zach remarks, to Ed screaming in a Celine Dion concert, to Philips getting hit by a crowbar, the film has it all.The Carlos scene(that's the baby) are the best to begin with, to Ed and jade wedding pictures, to the finally of where Doug was. Proving how Buddy flick is made, with lots a liquor and drugs.

I cannot even compare to any other road strip or buddy flick, than the new terminator film or any memory lost film ever made. But the director made a very wise movie, the way that is men ted to be. With lot of Vegas films, from self and loathing to leaving, you got go with this one as the best for comedy. The acting is fun, the jokes are very new and improve, and for the love of the beard and stomach, Zach and Ed shine on this one.

Land of the lost is already out, and by the critic and moviegoer, is sure low, that will make Ferrell go back and make the follow up to the Anchor Man film. The hangover prove how one night in Vegas could end up been the best night than college night(if yer a freshman of course).
And word for the wise stay when the credit star, cause you really don't wanna miss what really happen.

huh i lie on the date, but hey who care, here's summer top 10 films.

2009-05-22T13:22:00.000-07:00

Lazy Lady Top ten summer movies.

Yeah is another season, of everybody want to get out of hell hole

Call home, and spend it on what Hollywood is offering.

Now being Superhero free, this year seem promising, and original.

But yet, there's the toy movies that is expected

One that is already a craw pleaser, of giant robot

and another that is promising to be the bomb, cause it got mummy director written.

But hey there's other that have a white mask slasher, a robber being pursuit by talented man, and a film that will change everything about WW2 with a tarantino style.
So lets begin(before Tyra start comparing her buttchick, to johny deep face):

10.-G.IJOE:THE RISE OF COBRA

Already been call sheezy, there's no expectation, i mean sure is gonna have the action, the villains, i mean Siena Millar as the Baroness, that's tight. But overaw those accelerator suit, kind change the whole concept of what the movie is about, with now machines making splash, is time for the Bionic ones do it. Have anyone here hear of a great cult picture call Robocop.

9.-HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF BLOOD PRINCE

Ok i got be fair here. But dont you think the film have already been dark a lot. I mean the franchise have been strong in the box office, and well the fan love anything that it have. But really dark, could they have gonna more urban like the third installment?

The only thing that the film have for me is the epic battle that every chapter have.

but enought with the dark.

8.-THE FINAL DESTINATION

What so the, that make this one to the list, oh yeah is in 3D, if you saw My bloody valentine, than you know what can you expec. What i always love of this film are the death, is already the traces of death for this generation, but in 3D. You better check with your doctor before seen it.

7.-PUBLIC ENEMY

They should have release this one in fall, cause that where most Oscar film come out. But hey i guest they trying the same formula than road of petition. With two most talented actor of the time, there's no way it will bring the performance that many are waiting to see. So why is on the 7 spot, cause really is freaking summer the only thing that is important is watch thing go boom.

6.-TRANSFORMERS:REVENGE OF THE FALLEN

Michael Bay is pushing the budget for the sequel, and look promising, we the introduction, of new autobots and decepticons, there's no way this film is gonna be a hit, but of course i m till waiting for the Dinobots, but hey they got devastator, here hoping the bad guys win. Cause really the have win in some cartoon episodes.

5.-DISTRICT 9

Produce by Peter Jackson, and directed by the guy who was gonna made the Halo film.

The film brings something interesting that can only be a mixture of stosi meet E.T. I mean really what would alien ship been hovering around in a slumbs.

that can only mean something that only this guy knows.

4.-THE HANGOVER

Is already been a while that we haven't seen anything of the director of old school.

But now he comeback, with something tat many of us man, like to do, drink and forget anything that happen. The hangover come, that have a mystery twist, that is sure thing is gonna be the funniest movie of the season.

3.-HALLOWEEN 2

When i heard they was making a sequel, to the 2007 . Shock came to my head, but that all was save thank to the man that made it into what is now a psychological disturbing vision of a killer.Rob Zombie is back in the director chair, and follow what happen after the 1st.

the only thing i can say the Myers tradition will pass to another.

2.-BRUNO

There's no stopping the success that he brought to he mockumentary of Borat that only Sasha Coen(not the pornostar) can make fun. Only this time he doing with style the gay way, prove my point that there are actually funny.

1.-INGLORIOUS BASTARD

War world done right, what was most vicious than the Nazi, the soldiers that did the same cruelty to them. With the success of the kung fu run of Kill Bill Tarantino, now take he's attention to what possible be the most gore war film, that any of it kind.

Already been premier in this year Cannes, the film could be the underdog film
So let start torturing some SS, Eli Roth style.

Well those are my prediction, of what can be the best film of the summer, now if i can only have someone go and see the land of the lost, cause when you put Will Ferrell in a big budget film, the only result that you will get is, "he better off making the follow up of Anchorman".

Apology to anyone that was expecting my top pick films of summer 09.

2009-05-21T21:10:00.001-07:00

I have been having money problem(like anybody).

That it haven't let me see most film, like the wolverine film.

But i guarantee you there will be one, cause what i heard, that is not good like the last spider man film.

But that wont stop me in writing it, so expect it to come by the end of this month publish.

As for the list wait for it by June 3, blogging about what might be thee films of the season, just dont expect to see a night in the museum or year one, cause really what so funny spending a night in a museum, that worst hearing a speech of rush limbo life. Or seen jack black as a caveman, ain't he already did that in Waterworld.

Anywho i hope you keeping reading my blog, and my reviews, cause really there's one Mexican that can pull it off. Cause really who here want to spend a day watching your dad sleep, or your Asian brother blaming the system of the country, he better off making out with he's turtle.

See ya then.

Apology to anyone that was expecting my top pick films of summer 09.

2009-05-21T21:10:00.000-07:00

same plans, components, machinery,model, it works.

2009-05-21T19:32:00.000-07:00

The terminator franchise have inspire many, from Battlestar Galatica, to the butterfly effect. James Cameron brought the most apocalyptic future where humanity own creation destroy him from the errors that it have. From the time traveling twist to the only salvation that man have. Giving birth to action star by the name of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Following with 2 sequels and now a cancel tv series, a new tale, take the franchise to a direction what happen after Judgment Day, well Mc G directed, here's the red eye review:

In the year 2003 a death row inmate by the name of Marcus Wright(Marcus Worthington) donate he's body to sciences, by signing to Cyberdyne. The year is 2018, humanity was decimated, when the defense program call sky net was activated, Judgment day came when the bomb were drop around the world. Where a resistance soldier John Connor(Christian Bale), discover plans from sky net for a new terminator model, taking the info to he's superior, he is brief by a new weapon, a frequency that can shut down the machines. Meanwhile Marcus see the destruction of what once was Los Angeles, where he make contact with terminator, until he's is rescue by a young man name Kyle Resse(Anton Yechin), where he take him to see the resistance. Back on the resistance base Connor is puzzle by the recording of her mother, telling him about he's father and the importance, Marcus and Kyle stop by in a gas station, where they are attack by a couple Hunter killer, escaping Kyle get capture leaving Marcus behind, where he meet a fighter pilot of the resistance Blair Williams(Blair Bloodgood), that take him to her base, where a mine bomb change Marcus, revealing something that not even Connor could' n believe. When both meet face to face, is war. But the fate of Kyle Resse lies in their hands, so now they better work together, and discover the radical change of Marcus body ? The only fate that humanity have, is just one name John Connor.

Christian Bale acting was very soft tone spoken the same way he did in rescue dawn, But when he go commando that where the shouting begin. Marcus Worthington is already a star in the making, with high octane action, With a mean madmax actitud, the star is gonna be a action hero(here hoping he doesn't make the wrong choices like Ben). Bloodgood romance date was already to soon, a person in the audience yell "to soon". Which i concur on that. They should have waited in the film like coming from a dangerous mission. She was suppose to be the strong female that Linda Hamilton did, but i think they went short. Anton this guy is already making bank thank to another blockbuster(Star Trek) he went out all Shia Lebouf, in believing that there's hope, and the admiration he got from Connor, was somebody that you meet in line, to see this film, very fanatic. So they where any drama acting, but it was well play for a film, cause really went you watch a terminator film is not all about the story,

But the action, that cause it got the die hard formula, that every minute there's something waiting to go boom. From Bale shooting a turret to a T-300 head, to the Struck sequence, where we see t-biker flying straight to a Hunter Killer, To even the great bionic escape. Some body have been playing modern Warfare a lot, to get the war scenery done right, from the dust lifted of the explosion, to the camera shot of the escape that only Alfonso Cuaron did in Children of men. Yes i notice that this scene are already been done from the previous films. But they gave it their own interpretation, that work, thank to new twig they did. But the most memorable action scene is gonna go to the fighting with the t-800 where definitely they needed t2:grenade launcher, any film that pour lava than pressure to one this, is action seal of approve.

But let talk about the many terminator they show, with today films Wall-e to latest transformer, there's big T-600, that is loaded with a gauntlet gun, and a bomb launcher, and already swanager bod. Then there's the Hunter Killer ship, that it was cool by sticking with the original design, then there's the real tank one the T-100, that haven't change from the third terminator, that in today standard they already been made in real life. Then there's the transformer size Harvester, that works as the human swipe, that pick them, and drop them to the carrier. And let not forget the rolling skating bike that come from he's legs, that leave me to say to a certain robot director, that could have work for Soundwave.

And the many phrase are till there, that every actor say, is like every 20minute someone say something memorable, i mean is a formula that have work from the 2 sequel. But the tone will never be same from the original.

The movies work as a prequel, from telling it where it all begin.
It was a dream of my see the future of the terminator films, With the many model they introduce to the concentration camp, plus their base of operation, that leave ya, man that's while we love it. From the many shooting that not even a Disney film have in their library of films.
Make this a must see for this summer, of course it does cover some of the mytho of first film, but not of the 2nd. So there's more to tell.

Mc G really went all grim, that the others are know for. But he really have work on the acting i mean it wasnt camping or silly, but it felt more of a tv films. He know how to do action right, that thank got he didn't used wire, except from the car that is drop to one t-600. But it works, he really did justice to, from following the continuity to the many fan favorite Arnold phrases. He truly understood what the terminators films are all about.

If you wanna see another great summer flick go with this, a high budget that the movie have, it would make Paul McCartney not to get third wives. And the surprise that it have, that just have sheer, cause it wouldn't be Terminator without the original. Period.

hey im back, so is Winona Rider!

2009-05-15T10:37:00.000-07:00

Im not Trekkie, or will never be. But the latest installment could star making some(except for me). J.J.Abrams revamping the franchise, there were concern about it, cause really i mean ye starting something from the beginning, by introducing the original crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise, but with new, younger, actors, that some we have never know about. So set your self for warp speed cause here's my review:

When the universe is treating by a new menace, captain by the last of the Romulan race, Nero(Eric Bana) is set out not only to destroy the Vulcan home world, but the Federation too, as a last resort of he's pain. Meanwhile on earth, we meet a trouble making farm boy with a I.Q. that only Einstein would be proud off, James Tiberius Kirk(Christ Pine) live he life just been a womanizer. But when he set he's goal clear to join up in Star fleet, to be captain in 3 year. Meanwhile on the planet Vulcan where a race of high intelligent beings that logic is their only way to solve their thing, Spock(Zachary Quinto) is the only one that is half human, thank to he's mother(Winona Rider), after finishing he's studies, he decide to join the star fleet academy. During the final exam, Kick is charge by cheating, making it the first time that he meet he's future first officer Spock. But when Nero make a attack, is up to every star fleet ship to go, and stop him. But when Kirk and Spock are both aboard to the U.S.S. Enterprise,they have to face their differences, from mutiny, to setting their feeling apart.

The ship that brought a new crew, to face their first battle, to become legends, that only in space can be told. This is the story of the U.S.S Enterprise, and he's captain, that let to a new voyage.

Best actor of the bunch have to go Dr.McCoy Karl Urban, with he's paranoia, to becoming the only friend of kirk, he nail it like needle in the butt, Anton Yelchin didn't look Russian, but boy he sounded one, with he's smarts, and the imposible language to understand it was the truly joy of the film, but set aside. Simon Peg was the joke of the film, from the time he set foot to the ship, to he's whining, ye know he right brit to play a scotsman. Eric Bana who knew he can scream so well, this is a very new act for him, bad guy got to be ion this man resume. But the man that deserve any award here is non other than the Sylar himself Zachary Quinto for playing the best character of all star trek series spock, with he's seriousness and the logic that he put to the character, you can bet that Nimoy know who to give he's prosthetics ear too. Ok there one act that really didn't convince me to much that go to Christ pine by playing the bad boy of Kirk that really, if you have see it, hes just acting a Richard dean. i mean he's young but there was something missing, from he's character, that really didn't work for me.

Now from the fourth to the first contact, star trek had have it share of time travel. But this one actually really did it, i mean to bring back the original Spock to the mix, made lot of Trekkie wonder why stupidity even exist. From the suspense have thank to Eric Bana, to Kick sleeping with a orion green chick, the film is half 90210, and half star trek. The introduction of every character 3was well play like they did on Brian singer 1st X-men movie. they didnt show their back story but it was the acting that made the movie go. From watching John cho first fight scene, to the aerial drop that really kick off the effect to high gear, the battle sequences are even way better than any of the previous one, hell even from the first prequel star wars(hate myself on that one). But Abram wanted to make this film new, not just another 80's follow up, by reinventing it, that only him could know.

Now the visual, are one the best on any sci-fi so far, from the scenery when they are building the Enterprise, to the mountain city of Vulcan. But really the bad guys ship well it remind me of something that is shape of a corn, but their black hole effect, especially when they destroy their first planet, only time ye can see it is in a discovery special. But the drill fight was one my fav, from john cho taking out he's sword to the falling scene, ye can top it off, but wait you can with the airdrop and lot thank to the alias series that Abrams is well know.

Now i can make a close to this until i say this, by putting Leonard Nimoy in the film, than Shatner, make ya think, why he didn't open he room didn't open on that hotel commercial .

Lets be honest he's already exploiting himself, with so many appearances, that you want him to go away. But Spock was always the fan favorite of the bunch even when he directed the fourth installment it was the better too. But man he's acting have change from many interpretation, on this one he went all Obi One Kenobi, but saying he's well know phrase, was something that the new generation will soon learn. So bottom line, Mr.Nimoy needed this, for reminding us why star trek was famous for.

So the film have everything that summer movie have. From hearing the phrase that the characters are know to, to going even deeper to the story that made Captain kirk, and he's first officer Spock become the most recognizable characters of all Sci-Fi history. It didn't made me into a Trekkie, but i enjoy it, and even today youth who are just discovering it. I don know what plan they have for the sequel, but a hope that shatner isn't in it.

Next stop Terminator Salvation.

Ah christ moment present: Dragonball Evolution

2009-04-15T17:50:00.000-07:00

First of all what does Ah christ moment mean?

Well is when a Mexican that got nothing to do, go out and watch a bad movie.

In this case is Dragonball, i have seen my share of great martial art, from the Micheoh, Bruce, Jackie, to even the shaw brother's. Lately hollywood have been cashing in some, from last year the forbidding Kingdom to the Cg fat panda Kung fu panda. Now they take the most popular and recognizable manga(and Anime) of the 90's into a very and not so Indy like adventure, cause really where the wire?

Here the Review:

A long time a go, earth was been decimated by the conquest of Lord Piccolo(James Marster), that almost destroy it. Until Some Mystical Monk capture him, and imprison him in a jar. Now century have pass, where a old man train he's pupil the young, but overconfident Goku(Justin Chatwin) where in school he's is always bully a lot, which he can used he's kin agaisnt them. But when the evil return to haunt the old man home, and reclaim the dragonball, so he ca summon the most fear est monster of all. With he's only love one gone, Goku must set into a quest to find the other six mystical ball, on the trip, he meat a sleuth of character that join him: The determind, and techie Bulma(Emmy Rossum), the pervert, but very wise Master Roshi(Chow Yun Fat) and the treasure, always looking for a quick buck Yamcha( Yoon Park). To look and find them before the dreaded Piccolo do. From high flying, to finding a place where you below, and share it with new friends. Learn your Kin level, and study your kame kame ha

Cause this is the world of Dragonball.

Cause really it really doesn't have any serious acting, just something out of a B film.

Justin hair may done the look of the main hero. But hes act doesn't, from taking flirt of Chi chi, and learning new moves from the master, the guy come slow, in a very cloudy kind of way.

Then Bulma didn't seem that convincing, cause really she's a owner of a major technological company, but fail in the whinning thing, and the Yamcha crush, to soon for the film, especially when he try to steal from ya. Jamie chang performance was like the Hello Kitty of the film. Hey here's something you shouldn't have done, corny. Yamcha well there ain't nothing to talk about.

The only character that i think that almost save it, got to Chow Yun Fat. To he's funny acting, and always putting the hand on bulma(twice) was the true entertainment of the film. They should make another focus on him.

The story came short, and not that joyful. The environment that is set in, really got the feel of the dragonball universe, on been diverse, on the raise of color, and the futuristic setting, and of course the fantasy of the martial art. But really it seem they didn't told on how Piccolo escape, and why Goku didn't grow the size of he's father King Kong? knowing they left out the saiyan part out. And most of the appearances were to fast, well that what you get when is a 90min film.

It seem the adventure didnt look that interesting to begin with, i mean piccolo was already destroying city's, with that strength he can already take over the planet by breakfast morning.

And the training that Goku got, well let just say that kid that started in the Forbidding city, with just one kick, Goku can forget about existing.

Now the fight are always important for the series, and every fan of this series know about. Here they seem short from the rope by beginning of it, that something they took from Bulletproof Monk(Another Chow Yun Fat made with stiffler), and the Rochi they should be send to jail by pulling that cg arm fight, You don't need effect when it come to the kung fu. That's why there the wires? which they didn't used. The best fighting that the film have, goes to Jamies Chung, she the only actress that have the most training. And the epic one between Goku and Piccolo, well let just say that something that only Hollywood can do for their own brand of martial art.

So the film come bad in all. But really what were they thinking, Cause really the crouching tiger and hidden dragon is till consider the best thing that the Chinese gave to the Americana's. Here something that i can also add why they didn't put Grillin instead of Yamcha, i know they based it upon on the first one that was Dragonball, but fail in the character acting. Well this is a franchise that really was made by the Japs, cause everybody know that Anime films(the classic ones) last only to 80's to 90 min.

Well the first of a series of bad movies that need to be watch, cause really i know most wont.

This is even why observe and report should have a chance to be in on the ·1 on the box offices. But hey Disney won that one. So hey if you were expecting something of this film then don't, cause really Hollywood cannot always make them great, but if you do? bring some couple of your buddies, and laugh for the fun of it.

Next stop X-men origin: Wolverine.

New parts, new models, but need a better plot.

2009-04-08T22:04:00.000-07:00

When this film came out is started a new trend, in mechanic, machine, design, that only the Mtv crew could ever exploit(that when Britney went bald). That even other channel follow it to, from the pimping, to the challenge, made more kids wasted their high earning college money to make their their ride look pretty, even more than the girlfriend. Now the original gang are back finally with new cars, new racers, new chases, but all that was left the hood of the story open.

Dom Torretto(Vin Diesel) is back and this time with a new team, doing what their best, only this time in the south America, but when the police catch up. The is time to move on to another country. Leaving he's only love the fearest and risk breaker of Letty(Michelle Rodriguez) . Meanwhile back on L.A. Brian O'Conner is now reinstated to the F.B.I., cracking down a drug Cartel that have been hiring Drivers for trafficking cocaine from the Mexican border, that have the name of Braga. But when Dom receive a call from he's sister Mia(Jordana Brewster) telling that Letty was kill. That lead him to investigate it, that lead him to the same Cartel as O'Conner. When both receive the same name of David Hick, that get them into a race that will get them closer to Braga. Where now they have to transport the goods, for the cartel, by doing it from a hidden cave, but Dom vendetta could ruin their cover up, And O Conner bosses want to shut the case. They have to separate their differences, and bring once that friendship back, that take them to face a whole army of the cartel. And yes drive some new model cars with the latest state of the art GPS(Im a techhead too), burning wheel along the way.

Ok let star with the acting, i mean the Vin one was the same that he used in another movie (The chronicle one) And really what glow for this guy is the in jokes that play well for he's persona. Paul Walker till show the same rookie performances as the first, it was like they were repeating the first part all over again. So there ain't real acting or Drama, but i think the ladies will like just for the pretty faces.

The story wasn't that bad, i really dig the hate they have at the beginning of the film, then later come the reconciliation, that really had that 48hr buddy thing. But wish i could have love the changing point when Vin discover that it was Paul fault for the Letty death, that could have bring something new for the movie. Now the new enemy being a drug cartel, is something that they recycle from the 2nd, that really they have went with something big or small, like a gang or something else. And the most predictable thing of all, who was playing the main bad guy, that's t when they went with the saw surprise. It s felt they wanted make a more streetish version of a James Bond movie. But is not all that bad, is the action :

I got say they brought some very new stunt to the film, from the last car chase from the tunnel, it felt like the pod race mix with some very cool pitch black effect, then lets not forget Vin jumping car moment, l mean where to you think he got that idea(hint the video game he did with car's). The gps car race, was new add for the film, cause when it came to the GPS guiding direction scene, that something tron that could too. And the great truck robbery was well choreograph, when it came to the stealing of the tanks, but true suspense come from the downhill, that let me say this once , a car passing over a rolling flaming tanker, is so gone in 60 seconds.

It was truly strange to see Justin Lin back to directing it. The man knows action, i bet he have been playing burnout or some need for speed and doing it in a very tony scottish way. Is also cool to see how Dom knew Han from the tokyo drift(i bet to critic didnt that find that). But the weird thing is it a sequel or a prequel to Tokyo, i mean where's Digs from the 2fast, they left plenty of loopholes that it wasn't explain.

Well it works more as entertainment, than something that could start a trend all over again.But really i only went to see director Justin again, that drift wasn't that bad. Furious always had that street style that made it for me something new, and original. But while the sequel came, is have been loosing that style, and going more Mtv. But with the action that it have, it till make for a beautiful u turns. So pimp yourself, head to the theater, and decide driver it, or pull the break. Hey a least ain't the transporter 3.(really man ye should have went underground).

next stop the Ah christ! Dragonball evolution.

Who watchest a mexican? by seen this epic.

Finally, the most revolutionary that define a whole new generation of superhero. Is made in a film, with many selection of directors and actors. It was 2006, that acclaimed director Zack Snider was the chosen for it.
The film have controversy, thank to a battle that was settle in court, that didn't effect the film release. Now is the 6 of march, and the watchmen are out to look for retribution, but will they find it in the theater?:

When the day the comedian Edward Blake(Jeffrey Dean Morgan) die in he's new york penthouse, it set a warning to all mask heroes, and the only one to investigated, is the private n mysterious Rorchach(Jackie Earle Haley). By visiting he's old teammates, the ever doubtful Night Owl(Patrick Wilson), to the second generation heroin silk Spectre(Malin Akerman), the worlds smartest man Ozymandias(Matthew Goode), and the god like being of the whole planet Dr.Manhattan(Billy Crudup). By that time the united state was on high alert when the soviet was about to begin their invasion into Afghanistan. Bringing fear to the world for a start of a nuclear war.
Now understand their struggle, from their origin, to the battle of themselves, to what it take to save life, in a world that doesn't want their protection. And how History will judge them, by discovering a conspiracy that will change the world. Who watches the watchmen?

Now the acting of the film wasn't that dramatic, coming from a unknown actors. But there were some that gave a brilliant performances, coming to James Earl Rorschach, that remind me of a very dark private detective version of Clint Eastwood, especially when it came to the shape changing mask. Jeffrey Dean, sadistic performing of the Comedian, bring the true value for what this movie is all about, from the killing of the pregnant Vietnam woman, to the raping scene, truly bring the novel to life.But i got say there were some flaws, since went is rorschach gone soft or even desperate? And to Billy Crudup act to the computer voicing of Dr.Matthatan, he's judgement through humanity, is the same on why George W. become president, than again he's origin story was the best scene of the whole film. Matthew act, was little to what we saw, he play it very elegant as the same of Kevin Costner JFK. I feel there were so little acting when it came to Patrick and Malin, i mean, there's were so much explanation to their character, that usually it was cut short. from their relationship, to their passion of crime fighting, that the novel show.

The visual are some of the spectacle that the film have, from the kung fu fighting in the prison, to the fall of the comedian, it have the green effect, to Zack last film 300. But the best went to two scene, the mirror fortress of Dr. manhattan, that is not the same of the comic, but is something that can only come from Jim Henson The dark Crystal. To the explosion of New York City, that it cannot be compare to the Independent day destruction, cause here they went cg. There were so little shot that are the same of the panel of the book. When it came to Dr. Manhattan walking through Vietnam, to Rorschach standing in the window of comedian penthouse.

Now let get to the real thing the story, i felt that Zack Snider focus on the film, felt kind of a very Summer movie, focusing in the action, and not so much of the drama. But on how the film begins, showing the history that minutemen have in history was something , that nobody didn't expected. I mean there were some part that really connect the film to the book, like the origin scene of the big blue guy, to the prison scene. Some part were change, guessing for budget reason. Like comparing to the novel, i kind miss the citizen point of view, from the newsstand, to the artist that were involve on making the creature that destroy the NY. I felt so much mix, that really the film didn't play out like i was hopeful, with the dark and grim style that it have, have a separation , coming to Manhattan origin scene kind lost the sense of the film, but it got save to the Rorschach sequences,and the variety of music that it have, show the true feel of the movie. Now i m know you will dislike this, but i think the film have could have been better if it was turn into a trilogy,cause it have so much to tell, that 2hour and half, hardly cover.

For Zack Snider directing the film, it seem not a contender for best film, but it pays, that he stick to the moral that the movie have. For just a director that have made only 2. It seem the film make ya want this is the best superhero movie of all time, but it come so short. Look i have read the novel like 5 times, and a knowing so much of it, from the story, to the characters. so it confuse me, to say that the film is good or bad, cause really there some scene that made me say "yeah, that's it all about". So be honest, been a comic guy, or a film guy give your own point of view?

The hype they have for this film could have been a little exaggerated, but with today superheros film, anything is turn into event. But really are there many people that have heard or read this novel? Well it doesn't matter, cause the world, will learn another side of what it is to been a hero. Is till a shame that the great Alan Moore couldn't be involve. Cause there's already rumors that a second one is a coming, and that's something that will make Mr. Moore cut he's beard off.
I hope it doesn't get made.

for unlucky movie, is pretty good.

2009-02-13T19:08:00.000-08:00

the only time that i ever saw one of this film was part 6. It was gruesome, but till good(if yer a kid). With more 9 pictures, and a match with Freddy Krueger.

The machete is back with more cut than Joaquin phoenix so call music career.

But does this remake follow the same hunting and killing teen, or is it another hitch picture:

In 1980 a 40 year old woman kill off most of the camp counsel, blaming them for drowning he's only son Jason in crystal lake, until one of them slash her head off with machete. Now in a present time , a group of hiker, set up camp near where the woman live. When night fall, the partying and the debauchery start, until a man with a bag finish them off, with cutting and burning, the youth die today. 6 weeks past, where another group was heading to a summer cabin, bumping with Clay(Jared Padalecki) who was asking for he's missing sister, putting missing sing. While the others go and party like there's is no tomorrow, by drinking beer, smoking some Mary, and playing with daddy stuff, there were nothing that can stop it, until a man with a hockey mask start he's splattering. Now is every one for itself, and survive the night, that he came to have he's revenge. With no police, no telephone or even a deadly weapon can stop him, call he's name is Jason, and he brought a machete, and he want to play.

Okay then, i will confess i have seen only short scene of part1, 2, and 3. And they combine it, turn it into a great film. Starting the 1st act, when the mother kill the counsels, only showing her death, on the second act, with see him with a bag on he's face, like on the 2nd, and starting the killing spree, and finally the 3rd act, when finally he wear he's signature hokey mask. So pretty much 3film into one, and well done. Cause really there's 9 movies of this series, and to choose anyone of them it would have been disaster, like combining part7 where Jason fight a Psyche girl and mixing it with part 8 where he go to New York(for a short time) or worst, doing 7 and blending it with Jason X. Their way they did, was nice, it doesn't cover most of the myth that it have, but it does justice to it. When it come telling the first 3 sequels, is justice done.

The environment, was set. From the house to the camp it self, and of course the underground home. Where Jason live, and keep most of he's toys, i got say the really went retro went it came to Jason room, and watching those toys i mean i saw thing that one can remember of the 50's. But night in a forest, that wheres the true cliches start, from the lighting, to mist, it follow same atmosphere that series is know for.

Now the killing most of them were original from the best one that was the police, that's the money shot, and lets not forget the axe throw, that i got say i was impressive. But then they change it from the arrow in the head, to the machete of the floor. I mean some of them i have see them in previous Fridays movies. But really the hick carrying one of the kill in he's pick up, classic.

Now some of the chase sequences were so made by another platinum dune film, the chainsaw one. From the chase they do in the underground, to the woods, it fell the same. But the dead scene of Jason, they really took that one from part 6. But made it different.

Ok, this film did define a genre that is call slasher. But making a remake, and try to cover most of the films, was something that Kevin federline couldn't even rap about. But it was short on the first part, but good it was shot in black n white.

So their have been imitators, and some rip off. But nobody can denial that the first and the second were the best. Bay Platinum Dunes production making now third remake, they won't stop, but for me a Friday fan this one is their only best. With the suspense and the cliche of scares, this movie movie deserve a sequel. Cause i knew they would stick with some of the supernatural. Real is something that you see, like Michael bay not doing a bad boy sequel. that's real.

i m cure of my koumpounophobia with this movie.

2009-02-07T18:48:00.000-08:00

Is hard to notice that stop motion films, are almost made in a big time studio. Leaving just some independent animators to do it. But when Nightmare before Christmas came out, trend was starting out. From the strange and nightmarish characters, to the Gothic scenery, making a new fashion for the youth of today. But know there's a new film that only the master of modern storytelling can do Mr. Neil Gaiman, who's story and fantasy bring new to the word of originality. Here's the review:

Coraline Jones(Dakota Fanning) was just your average life, but when she move from Michigan to the Pink apartments house. Her staying become a bother to her parents, Her mother (Teri Hachet) who's trying to finish her writing for a catalogue, and a dad who is always fascinated with plant. Exploring her new home she find the odd of the neighbor's, from a acrobatic, who has a very cheesy bond with therats, Mr.Bobyski(Ian Mcshane), the nolstagic Spectacles Mrs.Spink and Mrs Forcible(Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders) by just drinking a cup of tea they can tell the future, and the bicycle driven, who is amaze of slug, and stalking her
Wybie(Robert Bailey) . Impatient, with her parent always working, bore with the only people that live here, that they can only come out from a Lovecraft novel, Desperate that not even he's father cooking doesn't full her. But when coraline move a furniture discovering a secret door, when open, it take you to the truth dream that you desire most: A father that entertain by playing the piano, and gardening he's flower, Neighbors that can put on a show for their Scottish dogs, that only swinging can they made, to a ring master, that can show some mice's some new tricks, a friend that can annoy, and a loving mother that want the best for her. And all can see from their button. Coraline become fascinated by this new world, going all nights, until one afternoon, she is visit by a black cat(Keith David) warning her that not all is wonderful and nice. Until her mother give her a present that involve stitching some buttons in her eyes. Revealing that this whole time it wasn't about a dream but a nightmare, that only Coraline must face, if she's willing to save her true parents and the free the soul of other victims, from the spider button eye witch. It just take a key to open a door, and wonder what truly you want.

Dakota voice is already make this film a delight, with her spoilers acting, to her daring, she very well be call by pixar. Tery voice acting can prove you that she already is the wicked witch is tthey ever make a animated wizard of Oz movie. Wybie is the most nervous voice of the whole film. that pretty much is the fun of the film. Now heres a surprise keith voice got a a make over can he sound more like the pink cat of the disney Alice and wonderland. And Mr. Pc John Hogman make he's second stop motion debut(don't forget the Christmas commercial) that bring the tire ding act, and fun to he's character.

Now the animation of the characters are pretty much the same of some classic like the nightmare, to the corpses bride. Some expression are very reminds to the classic chuck Jones cartoon. And the some of the scenery are something straight of Tim Burton charlie and the chocolate factory set. the garden scene, fell something that they recycle from a nightmare scene of the graveyard part. the character design are a mix of other stop motion films from James and the giant peach and the bride corpses. i kind like the father design it got that vulture next, the Bobinski one remind me of the dude best friend from the great lebowski, (yeah is the stomach)
Now the Miss forcible, Venus design is not made right for a kid movie, then again they will question their parent, why her breast are big?

Now the story is a blend of Alice and wonderland and House(the 80's horror flick), Is quite dark, but i fell it more of a emo kind. The suspense it have, is the same of a david fincher film can have.
The surreal act of the character, is something truly fascinated, that i think Mr Gaiman have with carnival, cause remember of mirror mask. And the challenge she make with the witch, that something Disney could never do, in any of their film, only on their video games they can do it.

Now i can really say much on the 3D, cause i wasn't that surprise, cause most of the effect went to the wide shot they did, to even the first person view, the movie show surprising and vivid scene like of the garden, to when she go through the door, is the lights that give that 3D vibe.
But Best one go to the mice parade, is like seen a rodent edition of fox so you think you can dance episode but in 3D. the best of this genre go to Bloody valentine, cause of the trowing, to the pointing of the guns scare the film. But here is the scenery, and spectacle that the film show with the glasses, But more unique that is in stop motion. So hey way to go on that.

The film is the many that are been made outed of Gaiman library. For me is a very unique thing they did, with this one, the story and visual, are truly original. And the buttons really made me forget of that other brad Pitt buttons movie. There some scene that will comfort some parent, but with the 3D effect is gonna make it better. So go out and see, this very unique film, that is only stop motion animation that's out there's.

the fang, and claw are back in a medievil time.

2009-01-23T18:39:00.001-08:00

I don't get the beef that many people had, for the two films. They expected claws and fang to crash one and other, what they get action made right. And till the goth blame that is wrong, well it got Gothic scenery, black leather, and more a war so unique that have been seen once, on a episode of the real ghostbuster cartoon. Well guess what this time they went with a prequel, that tell the story how it began:

A war began between Vampire and full breed lycan( once transform it loose all human self) it took two decade to ended. By that time one peculiar birth introduce to the hybrid, half lycan and half human, in which Viktor(Bill Nighy)overlord of the covenant, took him in and name him Lucian(Michael Sheen). a new race of lycan was born, only turning them to slave. Working in mine digging, hammering, and whipping to get the job done. By what he didn't know that hes only daughter Sonia(Rhona Mitra) was having a affair with a lycan. But that time the counsel was preparing to name lucian the new general for their new army of hybrid that will defend them in the daylight. But when the true is reveal of the forbidding love. Sonia pay the price of treason, is death by light. Declaring vengeance with war, now the full breed and the hybrid, join to take down once and for all Viktor and he's convenant. This is how the Underworld began.

Nighy is already making a name for himself, with a super acting. If they were ever making a modern tale of Dracula , he would be playing it. Rhona, love her in Doomsday, but as a vamp she make it see sexy. There's no wonder there haven been any successor for Kate, on this film, well she fits it. Martin part, as the rebel wolf, was average, i mean is just your average spartacus, rising against he's oppressor, something that already seen.

The story play out in very kingdom of heaven way, with just protecting the castle, it does follow the continuum of the universe, but the love beet ween lucian and Sonia, gave it more drama, that really work. Not many film are well when it come to war and love like pearl Harbor. But this one with the medieval setting, prove that it can.

The scenario they have from the castle, to the mine field they very well have work on the lord of the ring trilogy, they didn't went Gothic, but more of a English type. The effect are the super than the previous ones, from the transformation to the final battle, that kind it fell like the return of the king when Aragon comes to save the day with he's ghostly friends.

The brutality that film have is little, except when it come to the escape, i mean getting shot by a spear in a mouth, ye better go to India to do that. There's some slash and dash, but when it come to the lycan rip, yeah there's blood in that. The fighting are good, not the best, but stylish. The gore factor is low, but the action is high.

Is great to see Len Wiseman till on the project, knowing he didn't directed. But Patrict(the new director) really did well, with powerful acting from part of Nighy, and a very seductress sex scene, the film rule, and who knew that he was till working on the effect apartment(knowing that where he came from).

The franchise is strong on this one. so if the goth kids are till complaining, then they better go to the gap store, and buy new clothes. Cause really the story is great, and the drama good. With rumor that Kate wont representing her role as Selina, is possible they could be heading to a new direction, and well lest be honest she have been the greatest heroine of any movie.
So with love and gore, the underworld 3 is the best of all. a DVD must(well for me).

Next stop Friday the 13.

bad of a film, but the 3d save it.

2009-01-16T18:27:00.000-08:00

The last 3D film that i saw, was beowulf, and i got into the thing, from the bashing of the monster to the flying suspense that was the dragon, and of the course the many battles. Is a technology that is started to resurface again, now lately last year wasn't that great, cause one the journey was over flap, then bolt needed more thing jumping on the screen. Now is the horror to test out, does the blood split over it, does the pickaxed hit ya, but more importantly is it scary with the 3D. Here the review:

in the town of Harmoni, tragedy hit when a mine collapse, trapping 4, when they dug them out, death became of them, leaving one alive. Moment late rs they discover they were murder by a pick axe, done by the only survivor Henry, who was in a coma. Until he woke up and started he's rampage of murder, from the hospital to the miner's wheres local teens were celebrating until the man of the gas mask came to reclaim was he's. Shot by the sheriff, Henry was proclaim death. Now ten years have passed where the local news till remember what happen on that day. Tom Hanninger(Jensen Ackles) have come home, and start something, that most of the town people hate him for it, that its selling the mine's, but when he reunited with her former once girlfriend Sara(Jamie King) who is now marry with the local sheriff Axel(Kerr Smith), the drama star. But when the killing start, over again. Only this time the people that control the mine are the new targets, including those who survive it. Well lets just put it like this, he just reap your hearts, and put it on heart box with a chocolate on it. So he can be your own.

OK, the story play out something that came out from the drive through, there's no real acting, i mean if ye love Jensen act on supernatural, than here he really ain't nothing more then supposed silent hero. And the love triangle that he have with Jamie and Kerr is something they just add. to give some drama. In the original it define the slasher genre, by making the most unique killing in any movie, and the origin of the killer is well done. Which on this new one doesn't.

What real make this great is the killing in 3D, from a eye popping over, to the first person view, where the killer throw ya the weapon. The film will start a new trend, in the horror genre. With just wearing this

Yeah i know it look like a alien with weed, any who the film goes well when the splatter come out the screen, i got the say the selling point are when pieces goes flying through you, the tech works well in a horror films. But lets not carry way here, cause remember it is a remake. My only complain go to the pointing of the gun at you. Is like giving it to a 5year old. My favorite part how to be said by someone call Al Bundy "lets see some 3D hooters". Yeah.

You can complain much of the film except, they reused the same scare over and over. The best way they did justice is when it come to the location that look good, like something that national geographic. Could make in later years. 3D is here to stay, it depend on how is used, but like i said before, so i wont repeat it. But i enjoy it.

So the slasher genre is been made all over, thank to the horrible remakes, but this one is something to see, for 2dllrs more is a good investment. But make sure that your local theater have it in 3d. so is more fun that way. Cause really this one is the only scare and fun that you can experiences. And one more thing there 2 more to come, 4th of final destination, and piranha.

next stop underworld3.

i was urging for some hardcore gore, and boy did i score

2009-01-12T18:47:00.001-08:00

Crisis, crisis, that's what everybody is talking about. Without noticing that Horrorfest is here, and with 8 films to die ahhh ye know it. The third annual of this festival(o so). Release by the studio that cant make it mind, when to release their films LionGates. They travel the country and the world, to bring to what for them are the scariest movies.

Well is time for me to judge them, Now i wanna make one thing clear i only saw 3 of them, why "I ain't Rich fool". so i got to cut back some to a least some films. Look the reality right now nobody is paying me to head to some film fest, like some critics, so this is the only that i can get. Now i will make a small briefing and reviews

So with further a do, the 3films, that weren't good but bloodier:

Voices:

Ka-in was just average girl, with a lot of life going for. From a lovely family, to a great swordsman, and boyfriend that is always at her side in a time of crisis. That all change when she meet a new transfer student. It seem everybody got some jealousy against Ka-in, turning, mother against daughter, teacher against student, friend against friend, to even sisters.

Critic:

Is been over year that they have shown a very good South Korea film lately. The movie play out more like yer average jhorror film. But the drama, is everytime stranger, cause really there's no motive or reason on why everybody is killing, there's some logic, but really is doesn't cover, like Bruce willis music career. But the Hospital death scene was brutal, with lightning, and the silhoette of the person doing the stabbing, made me get some like it, as for the rest, well it was common sense on what was gonna happen next. So is average horror film.

Autopsy:

When a group of friends head out and party a la mardi grass. Think couldn't get worse, until ye mix drinking and wheels. Crushing, they get more in trouble when they hit someone, with a ambulances coming, without calling for one, they head to Mercy Hospital. where the patient are treated not so good, when the doctor try to experiment on them. Surgery is call for.

Critic

Ok it felt like a Chevy chase film cause of the acting cause really there weren't any drama to the film. Just another teen horror, that the director was more heavy in fluent to the campy ones, i bet some of them were troma. Some of the hospital shots, it felt they were taken out from the ER show. I will give credit to the disturbing scene, on where the girl is reunited with her boy and discover that most of he's organs are on the outside, it made it good, for just 2 minutes. The rest of the killing weren't that good, just very repeated. With Robert Patrick playing the evil doctor, it doesn't save the day to turn it into another film where the victims become the monster at the end, i go with anatomy for a hospital terror.

From within:

In a small rural town of America, a series of suicide have been happening, that local are blaming to a family with ancestry of witchcraft. Now a curse is release, causing it, when one become witness to it. He's the next to see he's image of death.

Critic:

Ok this film is almost similar to another horror film that came out last year that starred Keefer Sutherland call Mirrors. Now the different is that this one they don't at it, cause they all ready see them self when they are walking or driving. But what i got me into it, was the wait of the killing that some were good, hell even the suspense play out right. Now the believing on god part was something that i think it didn't fit in. Look i get the son of the Pasteur, is a extremist jesus nut, but later going all evangelical on school, was something that i think exist. With the appearance of actor Thomas Dekker from the terminator series on fox, playing the misterious and antisocial, ye know what i m gonna say. But got to see it was the best of the tree, that have a good story and a well done killing spree, with a twist that really, is excellent.

So how you read this, ye notice i was more critical on the death scene. It just hard to find film that have great one example the 1st saw. But hey is horror, you have know most of this film wont have a interesting story, or some logic, to it. But they entertain. Now knowing that they already gave the release date for the DVD, is better buy perking 14, cause that one had a very good plot that i wanna see, (But damn theater didn't show it). So this is gonna be trend later is gonna be following, so for next they better than 07, adding some monster film to the mix. Well that's it then i see the next batch when they announces them. But of course i wouldn't mind, seen more of the new miss horrorfest. I'm single.

Why Hobo, well lets be honest here every winter they show the next big movies. From the actors who p`lay them, to the effects, to some drama, but as always the waiting begin, that it feel like a hobo with so much time to do, that its think all the time how he's life sucks. Well most of this films are Hollywood, no indie, cause the best one there been is the wrestler, damn is it good. So we got the scream that are made in 3d, to robots that take over, to claws that will make a buck, to old school toys that don't suck, and the watch if ever be release.

Here's a franchise that show with bullets and metal you can make a robot bleed some oil, for your car. I m excited with this one, is grim and serious. But can McG pull it off, there's one thing that this man can do, is just make milf look good. But serious their already some that are saying that movie, can very turn out like the indiana jones of this year. I hope not, cause really i giving it a chance to learn how is the future of the terminator.

3.-Wolverine

The x franchise wont die, cause of this guy. Now Hugh jackman made a name of itself bringing the claw man that never have a hair cut, in he's life. Going solo, and introducing some better mutants, like deadpool, and gambit(Im not gay). The film is gonna be that, so will this one start a new franchise, or it will go bad like Steven seagal dvd movie. I really don't know.

2.-80'S toys movies

With transformers 2 and the new G.IJoe , this very well be a even greater nostalgia year(if yer old huh) The anticipation is on this films, with million of dollar in stake. can the Bruckheimer and sommer do justice to this films. When they show some freaking trailer already.

1.-Watchmen

OK ok, i have read the news that fox won the case against Warner for the film, but can they pull the differences aside, and release the film. There already hype for this pictures, from the kick Roharsh act, to the story that is based, and of course the message that have, thing look dark, cause they already set a date to when the film is gonna be in theaters. Alan Moore right now is enjoying this, but hey all i want see is the ending if after all they went with the squid, or just a bomb.

eat a burger with cappuccino ten best film of the year

2008-12-31T11:13:00.000-08:00

2008 was interesting year cause of the change that gonna happen in the white house. I say "Who care" Comic movies prove that not only they can exciting, but they are some acting or even better story. The movies of today weren't all that good, but summer made it better. Knowing the year is ending, here some some of the best film that made this year, the best of originality, and something else which i really don't know what it is. With further a do the top ten:

10-.DOOMSDAY

the best homage films of the year.

Neil Marshall take of a very London bleak future, on he's third film. Influence by film like the road warrior, the warriors, to escape from New york. It didn't make it a box office smash.

But the action of the film give you the hint that not only Neil can do horror.

But he be very well, be the next John Carpenter.

9-.Stepbrothers

Lets be honest Will Ferrell haven't made a good comedy since Talladega.

But adding a old friend Like stewie cox himself, ye better get a bed falling for ya.

Stepbrother was one of the best comedy, that only Will and John can do.

From their fighting, to their way to they hate third brother, and of course getting beating from children.

8-.Hulk

This year was a no Ang Lee involvement on this one, but more frenchy like action.

Following with the same Tv drama this one made a huge impact, by define what truly is the hulk.

A rampaging, want to be alone, with a huge powerclap monster. And with a great villain like Tim Roth in the mix, it made so much green, that made the marvel studio into a powerhouse. And best of all the famous quote "Hulk Smash" made it more sweeter.

7-.Midnight meat train

This have to go to the best horror film of the year. Vince mute killing in the subway,

with a dark and mysteries remind us what it was like watching something that came out of Clive Barker. With blood and gore only a Japanese director can do. But knowing that it came from Liongate, that really didn't made a wide release. Ye got go underground to see it.

6-.Wall-E

Yeah i know the film ain't no finding nemo or a Incredibles. But ye got to amid a robot falling in love is something that can be rehash by bicentennial man. Wall-E brought a new type of a future where we thrashed it. With a tender tale, and some of the best visuals made in space, there's no goo ding wrong for a little robot, that all that needed is to hold hands.

5-.Quantum of Solace

For the best action film of the year go to 007. Quantum made it a huge impact with the action from the boat chase to the final showdown. Giving huge impact to the bond franchise, that the wolverine like attitude. So you want to see a woman cover in oil only bond film can do it.

4-.Religulous

Bill Maher is my king So He can ring. I made that yesterday in work. Is good to see a documentary that explain why is it that believing can cloud our mind. And taking us to where we are now. Bill Maher is a true visionary when it come to this topic, with sense and humor. And there's a real reason that we saw a pot head get he's hair burn.

3-.Pineapples Express
Till gonna say it the stoner take on lethal weapon. Seth and James are the best team, since Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. That film had it tweak not so good, but when come to a rescue for a stoner, driving a police cop, with a foot in the window. Yeah there's a moment. Bu the film has it gag when it come to the great dialog, especially when it come to their first meeting of both of them. Is this year superbad, but is better call it another great stoner film.

2-.Iron man

The best comic film that had something that nobody had, a great comedy acting of Robert Downey Jr. This put marvel to expand there's library of superheroes, giving us the surprise that no other film have never did. With a story that follow pretty much to it origin. It made most nerd wasted their allowance to see it. But it was Robert sarcasm comedy, that made this film as one of the successes film of this year. So what next, and what's gonna happen to the sequel, well by that time a assemble is gonna happen.

1-.Dark Knight

It is consider a comic movie, that really ain't that comic sh, the last and great performance from that late Heath Ledger, and where logic meat real life. The dark knight define all that ranking more than 500 mill world wide. That made Nolan into the great director of this year. With the reign of terror that joker put Gotham to, and with a very long short appearance of two face, that made this film even better. It making ya forget on that other film that it had a cool villain but in a very short short time. Raimi take note when you watch this.

you dont need a eyepatch to see this great film.

2008-12-26T22:09:00.000-08:00

The nazi films have been made most by various Europe film company, from the excellence Downfall, to the fake bill counterfeit. Both have been nominated by best foreign film. Now come something that can only be heard in the history book.

Who ever knew there were ever gonna made a movie like it. With the great suspense from the french connection, to the same ideal planning style, of the great escape. then this film have it:

There's a party that have it been conspiracy the assassination of Adolf Hitler, trying to explode the plane that the fuhrer was in. Desperation time came to them, when the agreed to recruit someone that can pull it off. Enter Cololnel Stauffenberg(Tom Cruise) with a plan that can change the history of the German Army. Project Valkyrie involve in the reservation army that the nazy had for any invitation. Their plan goes like this killed firs Hitler in he's bunker, then later send a message to the reserved army saying"that the SS are talking over and immediately send a warning of there arrest". Talking over all the government's building. With the support of General Olbricht(Bill Nighy), Ludwig Beck(Terence Stamp). Project Valkyrie is a go.

But thing change when they want someone more valuable then Hitler. Now is a matter of time when operation is taking place, but some of the party are starting to doubting if they go through. This is the story of the peoples who wanted to change Germany, and kill the monster that rule it.

Bottom line there's no real acting here. Cause most of the camera time is taken by Tom Cruise. Now hes performance ain't that bad, on he make it believe that he's a man who want change, and willing to change he's country. There's no background to some of this characters. Just a couple of men in a mansion plotting there next move. No drama of the family, no decision are gonna be made, just going with the plan. An it work.

Most of the story is focus on on how they pull the project, which really is good. From the time they make it their first intent, to the desperate time to get the bomb ready, following the same story narration of the inside man. The film is well toll from the perspective of the people that made the decision to change their government. I like also the start of the film showing the anthem and oath that they had to Hitler. but the best part go to when they think they have succeeded, and how they are already making the arrest.

Brian Singer didn't came well with he's last film, but coming back to the roots that he begun, there's no questioning the true art of the suspense. With great wide shot of the federal building, to the high tension that actor show. this films is a must. But it would work if they have shown some drama to the story.

The film is good not a Oscar worthy good, but good. This is the only film that right now is showing potential in being that great suspense movie that we waited on. So be the first and see that there were man that didn't agreed on the fuhrer command. That when theirs Tyranny, a conspiracy is gonna be made.

what spirit is this guy have?

2008-12-26T21:09:00.000-08:00

this year have been a dossie, cause golden age hero's are making a comeback. From alex Ross Superpowers: reuniting superheros who fought the Nazi, just to be betray, and capture in a vase. Just to wake up to the 21st century, see everything have change. Then marvel did the same with their first superheros call the twelve. The golden age was the beginning of this genre, but later came a artist that change it, bringing the true art of comic book, directed by a man known as pioneer to modern comics. Bring today a very and uniquely film, but does it have the true spirit of it? here the review:

One day a officer by the name of Danny colt(Gabriel Macht) was shot, then one day he wake up in a coffin, he have to dig himself out, and look for help. A live he later discover, that he's body can resist any kind of damages or staving, deciding to be the mask hero, the protector of central city, a womanizer, a cat person, out to stop anyone who harm what he love. The spirit is he name. When word come out that the octupus(Samuel Jackson) is up to no good is up to the spirit to foil he's plant, but when one of he's lady friend Sand Sarf(Eva Mendez) gets involve, thing gets complicated. Now is business for the octopus to get the only thing that can kill the spirit. with the help of the commissioner(Dan Lauria) and central city finest, the spirit doesn't waste time to get the job done. But mystery begin to rise, when the octopus, try to find the chest that hold the key of immortality? And what connect him to our hero? he's on he's way.

OK the acting was fun from Gabriel macht, going all marv from the sin city film(which was frank first directing). From the way he speak to he's ladies, to the noir narration that film follow. Sam part was the best, i always knew this guy needed to be a villain, and surprise he brings, like Geoffrey Rush did in the pirates film. Eva mendez play like a rip off as one of the bond girl, with the same sensual, the teasing, and of course the butt. Scarlet performances was good as the hard always putting attention to your boss secret plan secretary. But my favorite that real brought the fun, with he's chuckles Louis Lombardi as phobo's octopus henchman, he's the man that can be kill cause with stupidity there's retardation to be happen.

Now the story wasn't the strongest of the movie, cause most of the time is talking, and explanation, and more talking. Are we seen the love life of the spirit. Most of the comic movies focus much on action than word, and there's no spirit here. It play well as a cereal movie from the early 20's or 30's. But fail to show the excitement of the mask hero. The argument that he have with the commissioner was like the only drama of the picture beside the sand sarf flashback story, the story go to a weird direction.

The visual are fun to see, knowing that Frank got that in he's time doing Sin city, is the artistic side that this film have. From the red tone when they re laying the coffin, to the long walk of Sarf in the alley. The running of the rooftop were already made but with marv. To the dark shade that the film have, it show the very dark noir that frank can only do. Now some of the lights give the same style that Jude law did, in sky captain.

So for he's first film, Frank might need more practice to get another. The acting was fun, but there were weird moment that really confuse it. Like sam in a Nazi uniform, what is that. Sure he added the most beautiful women in Hollywood but till is not enough. Frank knew Will Eisner, and he's character. But to reinvented in a movie not a wise choice.

So is winter and most of the worst heroes movies come out in the winter, than the spirit fit right in. Look Frank is a master of storytelling, i mean this is the guy who made the best batman story the dark knight. But making a movie, he needed a co-director for it.

Yes jim Carrey is funny again¡

2008-12-23T20:16:00.001-08:00

Back in the 90's Jim was the king of all comedy movies, he started in in living color to making the most highest guest star on snl. Then came the Majestic, that when we never heard of him but trying so many comedian try, get a nomination from the academy. People started to question what happen when did the funny went, then came the suspense thriller of 23, that even made us forget him. Now he's back with the same gag, buffoon acting, and the joy to be a Carey fan. Yes is my review:

Carl Allen was mess up guy, as banker he declining many long, like he had
with he's best friend Peter(Bradley Cooper) who is getting engage with he's girlfriend that hate him. Rejecting he's whole life, even more when he find her ex going out with somebody already. But a change of word come before him, in a seminar that show him the power of yes. Now he's world is open with many option s from going out more with he's friend, to giving a lift to a homeless, to learning korean, to flying lesson, to even getting he's, to even going to a concert were he meet Allison(Zooey Deschanel), that start a new

friendship, after going out with a Iranian women to preparing a shower, to been promoting in he's job, Dressing as harry potter to a party. But when Allison find out that he's have to say yes to every thing. She find that he was been unfair about he's life, and the N o make comeback a ruined life start. Will he find a balances for he's decision, and will he win back Allison back?

Let the word of Yes command you.

Jim is back to he's old trick, yes some of hes gag are reminisces to hes other movies. The drunk sequences was kind of the same thing he did on the 1st ace ventura, but the fun he have with Zooey really is the fun of the film. Jim is not old fashion here, he does bring some goofines that have been missing in other film. With he's face been wrap with tape, to wearing a toddler sweater for a harry potter party, he's the fun of the picture. And lets not forget the riding on a bike with a hospital gown.

The story ain't nothing of the ordinary, following like films garden state, or like father like son.

Where they have miserable life, then something happen that change all that. Yes man actually give some fun to the character, that Jim was missing. He's acting is the same but with more fun that the people needed.

So winter ain't bringing any good film so give this one chance, cause we don't know when the next Will Ferrell or Steve Corral start pooping up. This is the fun that we have been missing from hes classic, and start believing on the power of yes. And believe that he till making us laugh. So to show my power of yes, i took this:

So yeah i find this on a near toy store and i didn't 't move nothing, and found it like this. So is not so safe on buying that little boy this, then he ask ya "that how my daddy have me, right?" Happy Holidays .

is a greenpeace invasion.

2008-12-12T19:33:00.001-08:00

Invasion movies, is avery familiar genre that have two version of it. The alien kind to the barbarian one. Now 20 century fox is bringing something not so out of this world, but more humane and enviromental? Yeah is a weird concept. But if give it thought it kind work, but doesn't mean is gonna perfect. Even if neo is in the picture. Here the WASP of a review:

One day Dr.Beson(Jenifer Connelly) was given diner to her stepson Jacob(Jade Smith) when she receive a phone call from the government needed of her assistance, taken to a military base, there she is reunited with brightest mind of science to discover a meteor that headed to New york. Arriving in central park, is discover that sphere descent, when touching, a mysterious figure appear, until is hit by a bullet. unconscious, he is taken to the ER where they discover that it was transforming into a person, He's name is Klaatos(Keanu Reeve), that he came to talk to humanity to what is to happen. But Man reject, so they taken him to question him. Until he take control and escape, while in the world sphere like them star arriving in different place of the world. Taking animals from different species. While the government try to unravel the mystery, Klaatos is set to activate he's humanoid Cyclops of a bodyguard turning it into swap of insect that eats anything that it find. Now humanity existence lies in the hand of Dr.Benson to show our visitor, that there's more than being human.

Man have polluted the earth from the last time, is it worth to live for?

keanu act, was kind of a stiff, they didn't show any emotion, just wondering watching, saying so little of dialog. Jennifer act was dramatic, and very worry when it came to the whole saving the world thing, But till remind me the same act that Tom Cruise did on War of the world. The only performance that i like most, is Will Smith son Jade i love the whole concept of what he's father do, to even calling the cop on Keanu, but the best is when he take him to the cemetery so he can resurrect he's father. This boy is aim for a nom in the future.

Now the action of the film was nothing new, the swap thing is something that have already seen, hell even in a tex every cartoon they did that, of course those were termites. The transformation is a mix of body snatcher and starman. The arrival of the sphere was so close encounter, I was expecting more from the humanoid cyclops, than just standing there, like more of a Godzilla rampage way. The film suffer so much, cause it was supposed to be a disaster film, but there weren't.

Now the story that's have a nice direction, cause in the original, they came to destroy us from the nuclear weapon, now here they go the same with M. Night happening, that really didn't show anything valuable to it. I mean the concept wasn't bad, cause with the global warming thing everybody is making something of series or film. But did show on how right now humanity is. Of not taking anything lightly when it come to a foreign visitor. And the finally was one of the weakest cause on the original it had a moral when it came when Klaatos is shot, but here he, well that would been ruin the film.

The invasion is serious not so well done. So if ye going to see it then expect lot spectacle from the cgi part. But for the story is the drama of the kid that make it good. So is not your ID4 kind but more of a war of the world type.

is a good splatter time for the whole family.

2008-12-06T12:31:00.000-08:00

There been many superheroes that used guns as their powers, from the x-men Cable, Bishop then Deadpool. To even the female ones the black widow, Silver sable. But non can top the fury of fully loaded magnum use of the Punisher. Is not a sequel, but another reinvention, told in the way he s tragedy is, Ray Steveson pick up the gun from where Thomas left, but will this third shot, hit the charm. Well they didn't went all Garth Ennis with this one:

A deal was made going down involving the Mob and Biological weapons, and the man behind it was non other than Billy The beut(Dominic West), but one family dinner, a flare light up, their days were over, when the punisher drop uninvited. Blazing their world, one thug of time. But everything change when of he's bullet hit to a undercover Fbi Agent. He take the responsibility to aid the wife(Julie Benz) and the daughter. But when Billy is turn into Jigsaw is payback and there's one person that he need to accomplish it he's mental dead of a brother Jim(Doug Hutchison). With the help of micro(Wayne knight) who pact him with the gear he need. But jigsaw is always one step ahead, especially when it come to the close ones. Hunted by a fbi agent Paul Budiansky(Colin Salmon) and NYPD Det.Martin Soap who wan t him to rott in a cage. Raise your army, cause this gonna be a one man mission.

Ray Stevenson is by far a very impressive and serious Punisher, and he got the mug for it. He raise the bar when it come to the violence of the film. Dominic performance is like your average stereotypical Italian american mobster, made for a family film, i mean really Disney could have hire him for another. Colin performance was to average, the agent that end helping the hero, that can anyone say fantastic four2. Wayne knight have could have some fun moment, from how to bring Castle gun to even tracing the bad guys. Dash Mihok character wasn't that bad, with he's side gag dialog to the a very nice end, he bring some good slapstick(speaking) to the film.

The action that the film have been reused, like the chandelier hanging, it kind remember of a Boondocks stunt, and the transformation of billy was serious taken from Tim Burton Batman, when the joker look at the mirror. The Real fun come when it come to the satirical recruitment that jigsaw and he brother do, that was a lot fun when their standing behind the projection showing the American flag. Now this is the true vision of the punisher world, the violence, and there to much of it there's no wonder Ray was good in he's performance on Rome. But going all campy really confuse it, cause you really don't know is it a serious dark film or a just another late chucky crap flick?

The lightning that it had, made it look darker, just the right tone to what the comic is about. I li red was the right one for the punisher. Lexi Alexander direction to the film was a nice touch to it, from the many panel that show from the beginning of the film, to the relationship that the girl have with Castle, The women knows sensitivity when she see it. But just the acting felt like she already done ABC family films, or even worse Hallmark.

So to close the film extreme violence fit the character, but the direction of the acting just make it confuse, cause there's one liners that is already seen. Thomas James film was pretty good, but didn't have that dark element that make this one perfect. So is pretty much of both previous film that make it into a miss, is brutal in a fun kind of way.

What a wasted political film.

2008-11-28T18:22:00.000-08:00

Im huge Oliver stone fan, he's films have define a new style in making film. covering the real time of war, to the intrigue of politicas.The way he focus most on the character than the story, he's visual are invented. Controversial is he's name in most of he's films. And he untouchable doing it. But when it came to the event of the world trade center, the man that define just made, now he taking he's direction to the white house, with he's latest politic bio, of the most recent (and late) President Bush, heres my speech of a review:

The world of W. focus, on the life and struggle of a man who once was average frat boy, drinking, to becoming to the man that we know today as the new president. Covering from he's time in Yale to the many summer jobs to the candidacy to become congress of Texas. A man who couldn't stand up, or even have he's pappys praises. He fought against he's drinking, stand up to be the true Texas man that he is to be governor, and to see the shine of god to be the president.

Leader and mistake, this is what meant to be president, when you become the most powerful man of the world, and the error that comes. This is the life of George W. Bush.

Josh Brolin kick it off the wall since Anthony Hopkins play Nixon. For Oliver was a wise choice on picking him, worth for a Oscar nomination. Dreyfus's performances of Rumsfeld was perfect, that you only needed a SNL comedian to pull it off. James Cromwell give he's best straight edge act, that really convince you on what the father was expecting from he's son. I wish they could have giving more time to Elizabeth Bank, she hardly convince me been Texan.

Now the way they focus on he's life was not what i expected, i mean i wish they could show more. From Yale to the time that he became campaign manager to he's father. I mean what really love of the film was their relationship that Bush had with he's father, always looking for he's approve on how to live he's life. The best moment of the film have to go when it come on the planning in Iraq (Dreyfus's is king in that.). But what bother on the whole film was the many mistake that he did. and just that. I mean there more than that. like the bad publicity he had cause of her daughters drinking. And see how did he got along with the brother.

Now the direction of Oliver were good, specially when came to the dream sequences that bush have in the baseball fields. And the reunion where good. Look what makes this film great, is the life of today political career. Oliver did focus much on the life of Bush, but more on the relationship with he's dad. I admire him the way he do the research for every of he's film. But there was something more missing with he's life. Cause is pretty strange to see a 35 year old man, hanging with 20 somethings.

The film is great not perfect, this doesn't mark the return of the master that we know of Oliver Stone, cause hes best political Bio go to Nixon. Here he just making something that we already saw, but more of a Texan way. cause the true star of this film go to Brolin, that he very well be the De Niro of our time.

o blessed the jhorror, finally making a clive barker film.

2008-11-25T21:08:00.000-08:00

Finally i saw the film that mark the best of horror that can afford in the summer. there that many film that deserve a wide release, like certain one that i know(Repo). I dont understand what made this didn't. With great shot, great story and sunpense, this film is a must to all horror and Clive baker fan. What interesting is directed by the man that brought the grudge one and the follow up, with everything that i said, the movie is a gore venture:

Leon Kauffman(Bradley Kooper) is a struggling photographer in New york, living in a partment with her girlfriend Maya(Leslie Bibb). And living with a picture on everyday, but having them in display in one of famous gallery of the city, a rejection is not option for him. So one night he go out to take some photo of the citizen that live the night, but when he save a girl from some gangsters in the subway, later discovering of her disappearance's on the morning paper. Intrigue he head to the subway every night, and always seen the same tall, silent, Irish looking man (Vince Jones)carrying he black bag, and always taking the midnight train. following him, he discover he's a butcher working in a slaughterhouse, but when the meat is done is time for some victim to hang. Taking Leon to a dark obsession in the metro, where he's art of taking photo is. But when Maya is in the picture, it become desperate matter, to save her. Get off the next station and don't ride the next one, when the hammer is on you.

Vince Jones is the best darkest, and scariest tall guy since Jason. With great acting Lock and stock, to one of my fav horror fest film 07 Tooth n nail. This British actor, also made the X-men 3 fun with he's famous phase "I m the juggernaut ·$%&/". Bradley, made this picture even more suspenseful, with he's curiosity that take him the same way to Neil in the Mouth of madness.

The shot are one the best in the film, specially when it come to final stand off. the Effect look cheesy not so Hollywood, but it work, some of the resolution shot work, when Leon follow him to the slaughterhouse, Hitchcock would been proud.

Now the gore that is where the money is. I'm wont hide it some it seem kind off Campy, when it came to the hammer shot to Sam Raimi(yes the director of spider man one) and the eye balls come out. that's was little ridiculous. But when it come to the stripping, that were the disgusting come to full gore. Most of the killing are made with the hammer that really give to the premise to the film, and is great that someone is using it, cause not since leatherface made his film debut, but just hammering he's first victim.

This film would half been in my top ten films of the summer. Period. So Liongate try to have shame on ya, from hiding a great horror film, that only Ryuhei Kitamura can do. Proving my theory that never doubt the jap when it come making great gore film example Battle Royale(damn you new line when are you making the remake).

So this is must when it come to great story line, and whole of suspense. You just got get up, and look for it anywhere you can. Cause film like this deserve the much attention than any Barbara Walter special. Period.

Hey a least they didn't when all goth on this one, just emoish

2008-11-21T17:48:00.000-08:00

Vampire films have always been a very hot calamity, turning them into gay people, or worse Babara Streisand, very ghoulish. Now come Twilight, take the genre in a very josh whedon direction, the film ain't that dark, just very outdoorish. But does it work, well the vampire were originated in books, but how about films. here the missing of blood review:

Isabella(Kristen Steward)is just your average mix up teen, leaving Arizona behind and moving to a new town, of fork where he father is the sheriff, she settle in, hardly. At the beginning of the new semester, she start to have curiosity with he's biology partner, a very serious and calm person that have the name of Edward(Robert Pattinson), who form part of the family of the Cullen. One day while Bella was getting out of the car, a van was gonna hit her, until out of nowhere Edward stop it with he's bare hand, now she of to find the true of he's existence raveling everything she knows, coming to one conclusion a vampire. So now Edward let her in to he's world, from he's powers, family and the true of why doesn't kill human. But a series of killing been happening on fork, that most are made by fang. So when a new pack come to town, one have the feast on Bella. So will Edwards keep her safe? or will he's taste of human blood say something?

The acting on the film felt like very sadden from the narration of Kristen to the whining of Edward. Most of this actors are new, and some of them i haven't heard of them. The film have a very depressing tone to the voice, with the mystery to the jokes. For me the best act have to go to Cam Gigandet who play avery dark Hannibal interpretation.

Now the story, it work well as a introduction to the world of twilight, and the power that the vamp have. It doesn't work in a type of like interview, but well on the characters, i mean is the first seen vamp in the great out doors. changing the tone of color from dark to dark blue.
I was very intrigue in the relationship that the vamp have with the natives. Like there some history on both side, but there something i didn't get are the native werewolf, cause really the underworld thing don't work for me.

Cathatrine Hardwicker direction which i always like from her first film thirteen, does bring some human drama to the film, but fail when it come making to the supernatural. I think it fell flat in the part when it came meeting the Cullen, cause i was more interesting to the one that can see the future.

Now to the bummer of the picture have to go when this vamp are expose to light, they shine , i mean the literally shine like your wife wedding ring which i felt it a very feminist touch. Look i know most of the very vampire film try to follow the basic rules, but this one just turn it into a jewel store. Hey i know Tom cruise when all gay on interview, but this one make it more pink.

So the film work as a teen drama, in a sense of 16 candle. A perfect date movie or better yet chick flick. So if you planning to see some blood, well there isn't, just a lot of whining that make the most emos happy.

spank the 5 mex movies, that gringo gonna remake.

2008-11-20T12:21:00.000-08:00

20 of November, a very revolutionary day for the mexican. The day the Zapatista and Villista, stand up against Diaz 30 years reign in power. Changing the course of government of Mexico Forever. So what better way can we offended, why asking the same Hollywood question, whish Mexican film will the gringo remake. They have done it to the asian, from the jap horror the ring to Dark water(which nobody care about) to this year chinnese gun blazing Bangkok dangerous, to the most recent Host and Oldboy.

Yes the guys of Tinseltown are now borrowing films from other countries, and ruin them hard, so ask a question"Why they haven't take one of our film?".

We got the Drama(Just look at the drama we got thank to the corruption), we got action(northern way, huey), and of course the funny(that all we got just lemme talkshows).

So come on gringo give a look to our film library, and remake them in a way, ye did to the asian.

by stabbing a sepuro to their stomach.

Here my five choices:

Nosotros los pobres

The story follow the life of familly living in the slump of 50 Mexicos, showing the love and courage to make it in a time whereeverything was going all wrong. Now gringo i hear a oscar contender, cause it was the first time they introduce the greatest mexican actor Pedro Infante. So i m guessing the right person for the job is Mr"i don't know why i m famous"MatthewMcConaughey.

Even with this one he can take the gold, shirtless while giving a speech.

Santo contra las momias the Guanajuato

To be brief is a wrestler fighting zombie. The end.

Now knowing that Zombie movies are making way to the horror genre, following to Romero Diary and a follow up. I was thinking why don't make one with some tourist going to Guanajuato, and exploring the catacomb of the city, when they awaken them(i don't know how but it work) now their off facing a new type of zombie the crispy, crunching, that taste like jerky kind. O yeah i smell Jim Carrey stardom taking off with this one.

El Bello durmiente

story follow two cave man tribes are at war until their gods destroy them. So to please the tribe choose a person to be married with the other, but there some that their not happy about it. If Christ Farley were alive he would be a perfect fit, playing the hobo version of a caveman, and why not add a dwarf to the mix. Vince Troy need a job fast. It got drama, betrayal and dancing dinosaur yes a perfect fit for the children. Yes this film would go to the family, that way they like it complicated.

Lola la trailera

A trucker chick traveling the road, and every where she danger await for her with suspense, and some sweet loving the grindhouse way. I don't need to say it just put Angelina Jolie for the title road, she got the lips of a trucker. So why not playing it we give some sweet satisfaction to her, cause Mad dog wasn't that truckier of a film. and hey Jerry Bruckheimer can produce it, so that Disney can go even bigger with this. Sound that horn you rotten.

La santa muerte

Ok this is crap, but i hope you guy can do better, i mean you did with betwitched. The premise go if you prey to the death he grant you anything. Now you guys can make it, in a Clive barker, dark horror style way. Cause the way is told, is like taking some prozac and watching some Uboll films, so i cannot feel no pain. My dog take a poo just watching. so here i do beg make a remake of this, cause death is death by watching this.

So there you have it, my selection not Oscar contender but good to see. For My raza feliz dia 20 de noviembre, or like in U S A say it better: Get back to work.

This Blog goes to the Memory of a dear friend:

Celina Reynoso

Ella siempre fue la medicina de su familia, con su sonrisa, y chiste que hacia a todos reir felices.

Haciendonos sentir mejor, con cada carcajada que nos daba ver la burla de alguien.Sus hermanas la querian como amiga, sus amigos la aguantaban siempre por los chistes, las sobrinas se divertian cuando llegaba, pero nadie en su familia, hacia lo que hacia mejor sacarle una sonrisa a su mama.

Y a para su esposo siempre fue su mano derecho del amor.

Nunca vas a ser olvidada.

What the heck is Quantom of Solace?

2008-11-12T20:12:00.000-08:00

What i always love of the 007 franchise. That is a series that it doesn't have decade that made it popular , that have continue giving a new spin to the world of espionage. Also making the actor that play the dashing agent, a name to remembering(except for George Lazenby). the series have introduce us to the beuty of europe, the action, villains who want to rule world, and of course the ladykiller. that made the phrase"shaken not stir" a instant pop culture saying. Now the series have gone to a new direction that it haven't, a direct sequel. So is this one better than royale, let me answer you with this, rope fighting:

Taken place after Casino Royale Agent Bond is on the hunt for the organization that kill Vesper Lynd(Eva Green). That take him to meet Dominic Greene(Mathieu Amalric) a member of a Quantum organization dedicating funding on research for environmental sciences. Only this time the their charity work are heading to a Bolivian General, so he can overthrow the government, and be the next Hugo Chavez. All in exchange for a land that the American have interest for. But when James Kill one of he's own, MI6 want him either dead or alive. Taking him to Italy, Haiti, Bolivia. To unravel the true scheme of Dominic, while crossing path with Camille Montes(Olga kurylenko) a Russian agent with a personal vendetta against the general. wear your tux right, cause this time the Martini will be shaken.

Hand down, ever since the release of Casino Royale Greg daniel must be the baddest and grittier Bond of all time. This time is up the anti, with great performances, from the "i m not not going down without a fight" attitude to the quirky remark that all James are know for. And this time he have a villain that he fight,Almaric look is by far the most sinister that one can see, i mean seriously the man know how to swing a ax. Then let not forgot Olga, her action scene started with a damsel in distress act, but later is change into something sweet and poison like Drew Barrymore's Poison Ivy. And what can i say for Judy Dench, till the best M that one agent can take, and funny too.

The action sequences are by far better, longer, and good, that make the Bourne film out of comision. Right now i say this the fights are the best when it come to going brawl. Yeap no Kung fu, no books for a weapon just pure window crushing, and some old bloody fist. By far the Rope scene, that is something that not even the guys that did that wire work on the matrix could ever make it that great. Plus the climax scene are by far the best, literal similar to the Vienna house, but works, when you add the fire do it. The car chase weren't that good, but nice elaborated, when it come to the police car falling, same go to the boat ride.

Greg Daniel is define the Bond series, sure he make us look bad cause really we never gonna have that many foreign ladies in our bed. But he knows how to look bad into Good. This new chapter of the series, have prove that is not the tux that make ya, but on how many bad guys that you can shoot(counting killing your own)

Been a secret agent now have it mistake(Look on CIA handling the terrorist thing). But it have is advantages. with so much intrigue and suspense, is better to have friends from outside the country. Cause to make it you only need a motive to do it.

My eyes are till bleeding, for a good movie.

2008-10-25T16:53:00.001-07:00

Every years, on the month of October, there's, anew chapter, of the famous life lesson, torture guy, that we know, call Jigsaw. That gave a new wave of horror, call Torture porn, that only one movie have be made, that is Hostel. Now the fifth installment, start a new beginning with a whole new cast, and more secret to the man that we call Jigsaw. But is this one better than the last, or is just the gore that sell it, cut your wrist for this one:

Following in the event of saw 3 and 4 Detective, have finally solve and end Jigsaw reign of torture, receiving a promotion with higher standard, detective Hoffman(Costas Mandylor), until he find a envelope that said"Iknow who you re" putting the story in motion. FBI agen Strahm(Scot Patterson) is hot on the detective tail, following lead, that will take him, back to the first killing of the nefarious killer of Jigsaw. Meanwhile 5 new victim are awaken to find chain up, and to start listening to the rules then play. With just their mistrust will doom them, taking them to every kind of death possible, from decapitation, to exploding, to electrocution, and finally give blood to survive and win the game. Will Agent Strahm find the connection between Det. Hoffman and jigsaw? Will the new players, solve every test they are giving and what bind them, to be choosing to be the next victim. Is time to play a game. Where rehabilitation is the name of the game.

O k there something i got to say about this sequel, first i felt like i seen it, and two for me the gore is what make it watchable. The story of the movie, is a mixture of saw 2 and saw4. Why?

if you know on two, the story is 8 people are put together in abandon building full of traps, that take me to the 5 new victim, that is pretty much the same, the only different that it have, in this trap they have to solve it as a team, which got a good twist to it. Comparing it to 4, the whole cat and mouse chase that the Strahm have on Hoffman, gave the same sense to the whole operation-that Rig have in following the clues to find hes partners, every point he go, a new trap await him, with a life hanging in the balance. The movie didn't have much acting in it, accept to Tobe Bell performance that it just minor, but it does cover most of the loophole that the series had. By giving flashback to the time that jigsaw was alive, revealing that that hes wasn't alone doing the traps. It does fail, telling who's the new jigsaw, but the test make the movie more enjoyable.

That take me to that, most of the trap are new, and well craft, that it can be compare to the previous ones. From the pulling of the neck collars, to breaking the jars to find the keys of the door, to connecting 5 electrical wire to a tub, to open a 5 electrical lock door, and finally donating blood with a saw. My favorite go the electrical tub course there something that you wont find in any of the series, yes there's lot of blood, and squirming, that most of this riming ya of old school Argento films. From opera to some suspiria. We all know it, is the hardcore gore that sell it.

For first time director David Hackl it wasn't it bad, in the trap and the suspense, most of the transition that the film work very well. My only concern go to making a right story, i m just bother, that we already knew who was the next jigsaw, since 4. But either that the film accomplish entertainment with the horror that have. I'm huge gore hound(yes i know i have a addiction), but the film completes. The story ain't interesting, not even the suspense cant save it for making it a great saw film. My favorites are always gonna be the first 3, cause the 4th really was confusing, to understand the guideline, and the continuity. But overall is till make ya squirm.

So is Halloween, and the saw saga, is continuing hard, but either be the reason to see it, if ya a fun or just see it cause there's nothing on cable(beside the high rates of the bill) the movie is ok.

So don't focus to much on the story but more on the suspense that it got to offer. Cause really is the torture that make it the one and only. Now if we only knew what was inside of the black box, that jigsaw left to he's wife? i bet ya it was this:

A PERA BUTT.

it was a payne seen this movie.

Cop film are a great delicatessen, always showing the life of a officer, and he duty, and family. Some come from the bad Training Day to the underrated Narc. Life are always broken from the start, then later explore the madness they take, to get the job done. Then there some that just all about the action, from the Beverly hill cop series, to the bad boys film. Enter Max Payne a very new cop film that does have all the action but so little of the drama, and is based on a video game. Heres the review:

Max Payne(Mark Wahlberg)have a blessing life with a wife that gave birth to their first son, and a great job as a homicide detective, on the nypd. Until it came down one day arriving home to find he's love one death, in bed, now he is off for some vengeance's, that take him to explore the many criminal faces that he confronted to find the true to her wife death. Accompany by a female mobster Mona Sax(Mila Kunis) who also is asking question to her sister murder. They discover a whole new drug that making head in the underworld, that's connected to a corporate conspiracy,

But for Max Payne is revenge the name of the game.

Mark Wahlberg gave a great performances in the departed, that gave him a nomination, as bad cop he play, he doesn t bring nothing new to this character, he very well be the next dirty harry of this decade. Mila mean girl look, didn't cut it, cause really she more of a Hill kind of girl, here she's more of a machine gun woman, that demand more lower prices for her close. Ludacris, better stick with more on he's rapping, cause really he doesn't even have a good cop look.

Beau Bridges, was more of a father figure than of a best friend.

The visual were good, taking note to some film from trainspotting to sin city. It doesn't follow the black and white, but more of a gray tone to give that crime drama fell. The film try to have the same feel of other action film, but really it come of cross of blade with some visual of Constantine.

The whole valkyrie illusion, made it more interesting, but sometime confuse it cause you don't know is those thing are doing the killing or is it Max doing it.

The shoot out were great, a very john woo touch, but thank there weren't any dove, to follow, there little bullet time in the film, but it made it look cheap, cause they didn't made it as the matrix, but more of Chinese style. From film like The Hard boil to Die hard, the film feel more of a cliche, cause is all about payne looking for some payback, without discovering the drama of it.

So the film is a blend, of all action cop film, with so little of drama, video games movies have always end very badly when release. But there really good, ones to bad for this is more of a remake of the worst cop game call Narc(not the Joe carnahan film). the only thing that make it good is the story, of the conspiracy, from there on, well is just something that we seen in a die hard film.

civilization we go blind, without explanation.

2008-10-07T22:08:00.000-07:00

Director Fernando Meirelles made City of god, it show the true life on growing up in the poorest zone of brazil, selling drug, corruption, and war. A movie that follow a true life, received, in manny festival's, even a oscar nomination for best foreign film. Now following with human emotion, he give us he's next picture, about a disease that make ya go blind. But is this film good or illogical, Well i can see my review:

IN average day people go to work, then go home to spend time with their love ones. But when a outbreak is release, that the country announce a state of emergency, presuming of a virus that make ya go blind. So the infected are taken into abandon Hospital where they have beds, pillow, but nothing of help or security. Just your hearing, smelling, and touching sense can guide them. That's where a immune one(Julienne Moore) bring hope to the infected, in ways on how to live. But when the hospital is full of infected, desperation come. From putting a price on the food, to the integrity of survival. Mankind must follow the eyes of a Doctor wife, to make it in a world, where seen is just all white.

OK i got to say the acting is very humane like in many drama film, Juliane Moore take most of the credit for this picture, cause really been the only one that can see, and take care of everybody, that's facing a huge responsibility. The story give you a very good perspective on the life of a blind, from watching the step, to getting through to life, to where to go the bathroom. Is very interesting, on how one self could be very invurable without watching. But of course there's that point where the government doesn't do anything to solve the problem, it follow some film like dustin huffman outbreak, or Neil marshal Doomsday, or the mist. Where there lot of people in one place, when suddenly anarchy breakout.

Now here's the funny part most this film they do research on finding a cure, this one doesn't. There's no origin on how it star, it just one Asian go blind then another, starting a whole epidemic. And why didn't they take consideration on Julian character that she was immune to the contagion. There something that made this film very confusing cause really is this drama, or a sci fi flick.

I understand where this film was headed, very simple theme living with blindness, and trying to survived. But there's no real explanation on what cause it. I mean in i am legend, they show the starting of the virus, giving detail on the virus and how it evolve. Here's is just like domino one get blind then moment later there's another one. They should have least told what line of work was the first infected, then how it got it.

There's many loop hole in the picture, that should something new, on the theme of going blind , then the problems that follow. I think what made this film even more hard to see is the scene where the women sell their body to get the food. Is something for the female audience couldn't stand. the movie is very touching in a way on giving a glimpse of life of a blind life, but doesn't tell what stated it. Which is more confusing than Lisa Lohan lovelife.

prey with me, that a man name Bill Maher made this documentary.

2008-10-03T20:40:00.000-07:00

Do you know how hard it was, to look for a theater, that is showing this film. I mean seriously in San Diego you need so much a donkey, then renting it in Tijuana. I mean lighten up, when it come to a documentary that touch the theme of religion. So where i saw it in hillcrest, in what happen to be the cleanest, nicest, and helpful community (a gay one) Is like san fracisco, but more colorful.

Plus on the cinema that i saw it there werent any protester, i mean where are they, cause really there were lot senior making line for this film, and till no sing saying"this is blasphemy" or "Maher don't know nothing of Jesus", shhe, i mean where they preying for god to unleash he's anger to anyone who saw it, or they prefer see another rerun of touch by a angel. Here my might of review:

Comedian and politic comentary Bill Maher and Borat director Larry Charles take on the theme of religion, exploring every kind, and combining it with theme like evolution, homosexual, suicide bomber, and comparing it with others myth. Take a view, of what is religion and the effect that it have to people, to think twise when it come exploiting it. With some jak alone the way, from a Rabbi that say smuck tyo a jewish inventor, to a interview to a true Puerto Riqueño second coming Jesus(cu cu). There's no other documentary that prove that you need a IQ test to be senator. Except for this one.

Well the film is something to aplause at. There been many film have touch this subject, from Jesus camp, to the one. But this is just a laugh a way from heaven. The point of the doc show some fact that when it come to religion believe in it, any kind, to everything. Showing fact, that really some of it is just plagiary to another. But really what also shows that there's peoples making money of it.

My favorite subject they touch was on the Muslim, cause they are very sensitive to their believe, knowing well there's some that take it to another level. O r when it come to the homosexuality, on how there saying that god hate them. Knowing that in the bible it said nothing about it. Bill Maher took a bold move of making it. And exposing the many thing that is wrong with some religion.

The documentary doesn't make fun on anything, but make ya think that all time that someone keep believing in something, make him lost on what life he haves. Knowing the true problems that the world of today have(the crisis economic, global warming, war). And believing that when the second coming of Jesus come, the world will end. That's why is always important that there's film like this that we make ya think on how to believe. And on what way do to it.

I also like to point out the best moment of the film. When he's interviewing a Minister of pot, when suddenly he shout"your hair on fire, making him jump of the the sofa, See kids the effect of marijuana, it will make ya believe in anything. That could very well work as a slogan. Love the insert of the film from a cartoon Adam jerkin a wood, to the very scene of Scarface. There some joy to it.

So to conclude, i have family that are religious, to friend who are anti semi. That for me i respect their belief, cause they don't talk about it everyday or convincing me to be one with them.Cause fate on oneself,make us do anything without believing in a so call"Lord" that would do it for us, that what the film is all about. Bill is a reasonable guy that show exposing a belief is dangerous, than been furious to someone. So take a chance to see it, and clear your mind on what truly believe, change .

And to add something in my work i took a picture that open my mind, that was the face of Jesus:

Or just something i wanted to show to my loving second mother, i think she vomit when she saw it.

A brother another big brother film, but is good.

2008-09-29T16:27:00.000-07:00

Ye know the first time that i heard of the topic that the government are always monitoring our every movement, through our cell, black berry, computer, hell even the camera install on the street. It was in a episode of Alias, ye know the Jennifer garner spy show.

Well there been a lots of series, n movies that have touch on that subject, that make ya wonder that the communication is to say ultimate weapon, how so, well read my review:

Is another average life in jerry Shaw life(Shia Lebouf) copy boy, who today he beat he's friends in poker. Rachel Molloman(Michelle Monoghan) Is a struggling mother, who's leaving her child in the train station. Until both receive a anonymous call, Shaw find a stack of boxes in he's apartment full of weapon, Rachel see a video of her child in a McDonald restaurant. Now both must follow instruction by a mysterious voice, guiding them to their true objective, from escaping and dashing every authority, to rob a metal briefcase, involving them in what happen to be the greatest cyber secret of the pentagon. FBI agent Thomas Morgan(Billy Bob Thorton) is on the case with the help of government agent Perez(Rosario Dawson), to unravel a conspiracy, that that can only be call Eagle Eye.

Well is another Shia Lebouf film so that mean another suspense, thrilling with the"no,no,no"man, he give hes' best politic excitement lot better that transformers. Michelle is always play the doubt, that i can do it character of the film, but man can she drive good, Hey universal out put her on the next Fast and furious sequel. Billy Bob is the man when it come with the jokes, he's is funny for once, since Bandit. And Rosario, well she as always the female tough cop, who knows what to expect.

Following movies like Enemy of the state and big brother, another example on how a simple computer can rule one life or everything. Yes we have seen this kind of film, from 2001 Space Odissy Hal 9000 to terminator skynet. But this one is different with show how just average people become target to what happen to be a conspiracy. seen in global frequency a graphic novel written by Warren Ellis. Most of this subject are already made, but i cant say is a bad movie, but perhaps something that can entertain us this fall with summer over, the only good action flick out there well, that when i talk about the action.

Is far the best car chase, with no cgi, Director D.J. Caruso when old school, reprising the scene by the way that french connection did. There's no stopping the juggernaut of the excitement especially when ye fighting a FBI agent through the luggage shoot. Some of the disappearance act must come out of the bourne series. Is espionage at is best with this film, showing knew ways, and the advancement of today technology.

So if ye felling sad there ain't a good film than give this one try, shia may very well be this decade Harrison Ford, for making more successful film. But one can only say, he's just saying he's famous "no,no,no". Now that's box offices gold.

Mom best soup movies of the summer.

2008-09-11T14:32:00.000-07:00

Yes summer is gone, so start the retarded fall movies that really nobody care to see(except for solace of bond). so i here to the taste my fine mom soup, and spoon which were the best of this season. A those who don't like the list, shove some brown soup of the toilet.

Let begin:

10-.Hellboy2

yes the red demon, or i like the say the cult comic that could, came hard. With a great story and effect, with some mexican humor that the american people could understand. till is gonna be long for the 3rd installment come. Cause really guillermo got a dwarf to direct.

9-.Narnia 2

By far this is a masterpiece(of course you could say that to all the epic movies) with great battle sequences, a great wise story that can be enjoy by the younger and their parents, and finally why girls prefer spaniers, than your average vomiting, i wanna hook(not) frat boy. The film jackpot the rodent know mickey to the top, that till remind us that disney will rule the world.

8-.Step brother

is not a summer with Reilly n Farrell, the best comedic duo, since Ben and Owen(who he is till alive)Showing everyone that is not really necessary to grow up. Especially is yer over 40, yes this is the good time should be spending with my know 60year old, i love cleaning him after he poop.

7-.Hulk

the hulk film that made us forget of a certain director call Ang Lee. With a great fight battle, and the good acting of Norton. This film is something to remember by, that is never to late to turn something bad to a "great no they didn't" of a film.

And he's speak.

6-.Tropic thunder

Ben have done again, but forget him the true masterpieceour is Robert downey performances a great white guy turn black and act like a mrT. o yeah is a pity for the fool who didn't saw it.

5-.Pineapple Express

can go wrong to the best stoner film of the season. Franco n Rogen made us remember why weed is important in a friendship, just look at the face of franco doesn't it say it.

4-.Wall-E

This film will make ya gay in front of your toaster , why?

cause it got something that billionaire Steve Jobs doesn't have a ipod that doesn't care. Wall-E was by far the best animated movie of the summer, with heart make ya remind ya why we love our appliances more.

3-. Iron man

yes this film that started the trend of what great comic movies are to come

With Robert acting as the Playboy multimillionaire, there's is no going what sarcasm the movie have. With great action sequences, and a massive preview of what to expect for the next installment films that marvel have. Is something that have Samuel Jackson saying those word that gave us geekorgasm.

2-.The dark knight

yes i know this one should have been in the 1 spot. Well lets be honest this one is already mention by everyone as the best summer film of the season, but for me, it goes to the acting of a talented actor Health Ledger, hey no one could make a pen disappear then him. The film set a standard of what true movie making is without the comic touch. Nolan is the king of this summer.

And the numb.1 is

1-.Indiana Jones and lost temple of the crystal skull.

Is great nostalgic that everyone should have by seen this film, sure the shialebouf swinging with the monkey ruin the film. But the fun the movie had is that make this the most fun and memorable to see. And hey i m fan of old guys till kicking some butt. Indiana Jones make us believe that every summer is a adventure that happen. Now knowing that lebouf ain't making the 5 part. Just make our fany heart rest easy, cause in the end there is only one man that can wear the hat. Thank Indy for coming back.

Well that it's for the soup, i swallow it up. so you can agreed with the list, but is my list. And there ain't nothing that you can do about it. So here for the next with great film coming from the Wolverine to the next Terminator film. Summer 09 is gonna get better.f there ain't no actor strike. of course)

I have some bad news i won't be reviewing film anymore, since the passing of my mom. well is hard to keep doing, i will continue doing some , just don't expect every friday or when the release comes. So it sad i know but hey, this is of course the Internet so get your review somewhere. course ye never know when a Mexican can do another.

thank for reading. and keep a watch.

it will take kevin smith buddy jesus take on sexy jesuss down.

2008-08-28T18:04:00.000-07:00

Is rare to see a film that capture the attention , at sundance, cause really all they show is drama, some pretty calm comedy, not so great documentaries, more drama, dysfunctional family movies, more drama, gay love, and yes more drama. The last good movie was Napoleon Dynamite, that show a very funny and original characters, that became into a cult hit. Now this year, a very musical religion shakespearean film make it mark by doing a direct sequel play of one of the greatest story. Read the review:

Dana Marchz(Steve Coogan) was a inspirited actor appearing in commercial, and TV show (for a brief second). But when the calls stop, he move to one place where and actor least wanna be: Tucson, where he take a job as acting teacher in a local high school theater, where every play end up been based on movie, with bad review by the school paper. Is time to bring something fresh and new(sort like matrix in such) so when a new semester star, the school start to shut the art department just leaving theater, where he receive the gang banger, to who no what they say, to quiet one, Latino student. So now is up to him to teach, and show this youngin's what acting is all about, by showing them the greatest sequel play of all time, if only he can pass her alcoholic, want a baby wife Brie(Catharine Kenner), even the school who wanna shutt them down, and of course the parents. But with a little help, of a i married to a Jewish guy lawyer(Amy Poehtler), the curtain will be pull.

Steve Coogan is this year Steve Martin(with a British twist), with he's funny acting, and very offensive mouth, make us remember of a certain movie call the jerk made it so fun. Amy Poehtler is the Jewish wife, Who know what to say in any occasion, with her stardom rising theres' no reason she could very well be the blond that cannot bond(in lawyer term i mean). Hey let not forget the Latino cast, were hysterical from the silent one(that seriously she deserve the hit, for been so quiet), to the slipping a drink to the teacher, and of course the little girl that can say anything nice to the Latinos. Is great to see Elizabeth Shue back, we miss her.

The story is your typical remember the titan type, but with more offensive dialog, from the way he start writing the play, to anything that Poehtler say. The film is great with fun moment's, that not even a midnight nightmare(the movie) can make fun. I felt is was Steve that took most the gag of the film, than Yolanda getting the hit of the movie. To even the first meeting of Elizabeth. But the music is grease with some offensive word from Kevin smith make this movie more derange.

There ain't many fun films that come out from the sundance festival. But this one is the contrary, that made very well be a cult hit, so Broadway give space to the next film to go theatricaly, in such. So come on folk lets go with sexy Jesus. i did and here's my proof:

this ain't like anything, is nascar with cocaine.

Since a child, all my toys, i reap them apart and custom with gun, missiles, bigger wheels. Competing in races that allow even monster truck, and of course off road vehicles. And call it hellroad, where just one rule survive to win. Now someone did it with a 70's roger corman film call Death Race 2000, that became cult film. Now they grease it up, put some wheal, rusted a bit, and gave it a R rated, adding one of the meanest mother "·$% star of today, and bless my heart it was directed by Paul W. S. Anderson. somebody have been playing twisted metal or jak x racing for this:

The economic was broken, causing lots unemployment around the country, factory's small business were shutting down, it was chaos, crimes were up, overcrowding the jails, so to control this problems, the pen where taken by major corporation, turning every inmate, into competitors for cage's fighting, but then the public wanted more. Deathrace was born. Former nascar driver champion Jensen Ames(Jason Statham) was enjoying the's last day of work receiving hes' last paycheck, Going home where the wife was preparing dinner, and the born daughter were waiting, by the time he go to check the baby there was breaking, where jensen wast knock unconscious, waking up he see a knife and blood on he's hand, and beside him, the corpse of he's wife, the cops arrive, arresting him, frame he is send to terminal city penitentiary, where every killer, psycho, rapist, was lock up, and run by Warden Hennenssy(Joan Allen), who also control the most watch racing game of all time, making a deal to jensen to drive, and replace he's late star Frankenstein, and win 3 races, for he's freedom. Now he's we be racing with the best mechanics the coach(Ian Mcshane) and the very hot latin navigator Case(Natalie Martinez), facing all kind of challenges from he's arch rival Machinber guy joe(Tyrese Gibson), the dreaded half of a football stadium truck dreadnaut, to the man that kill her wife. This aint no fast or furius crapt, or another drive sequel, this is racing as the killing point, where the life's are run over, speed are the main weapon's, for ratings. Let the motor roar for death race.

Jason Statham role, is like he's previous films, from the transporter to crank, in other word he's always on speed. Joan character was nothing original playing as the manipulator of the game, having the same resemblances to Meryl Streep in the devil wear Prada, just to serious. Tyrese Gybson well got to wait for him until transformers 2. The character who really gets the laugh of the movie go to Ian McShane, he's role ain't anything out of the ordinary. But he always get the best lines.

The film story have so much in common to adam sandler the longest Yard, same the warden want to get the best athlete, for he's jail, later rig the sport, threading him. Yeah we have seen that so many time, so what make it worth watching, the crashes, and the action Paul always know he's art for making action film, and here 's he deliver, from the driving over the plates that activated the weapon's or the traps of the car to the introduction of the dreadnought(taken the name from the biker gang of the G.I Joe) were the real suspense comes, i mean i never seen something that got (by saying) a tank cannon of a bottom. The chopper chase reminded me off ransom where the light always shine on the kidnappers, getting away in bikes.

It was great that Paul put the actual producer off Roger Corman to produce it, and i swear that the original frankenstein David Carradine appearing at the beginning of the film. The movie, is hand on the wheel, where everything is made and shot in old school. Were only the maps and the programs are the cg magic, speed racer should have gonna that away.

Paul deliver another action summer flick, closing the summer with it. Ain't got nothing of good acting. But the racing and the action make it for a DVD must. Hey you can envy the guy by marrying the beautiful women on the planet Alice herself. But he doesn't sink like Uwe for making great action picture. Here hoping for a follow up or even better a comic sequel. Hey i m still wating for Neil for that sequel for doomsday, why not for this, only this time lets go all baja 1000 Mexican style. oh yeah i write that.

They should have let Dave Filoni direct the prequels

2008-08-15T22:48:00.000-07:00

The clone wars era have been cover by books, dark horse comics, even a cartoon series. But now it seem their more to tell, that's whne we're introduce to Anarki padawan. Taking to a whole new direction from real life, to old school animation, cg is the next stop from the Galaxy far far away, a prelude to the upcoming Cartoon network series, here's my force of a review:

Taking place during episode 2 and 3, the republic are losing the clone wars, while more planets join the separatist. The jedi, lose more chanses to win the war. When a group of renegades kidnap the notorious criminal Jabba the Hutt son, the republic are call. So is up to the now Jedi Knight Anarki Skywalker, and he's new Funny, over her head, smart little one padawan Ahsoka Tano, to rescue him, and bring him to tattoine, in return the republic will receive some strategic plans, to take the advantage for the war. But there 're evil force's lurking to prevent it. Will they successfully rescue Jabba child or will they fail? The war is on.

the strong, and charismatic(i m not gay here) Obi won play it right of course, is the same acting he gave in the previous star wars film, only he was voice by James Arnold Taylor. Anarki was funny for the first time(in a more sarcastic way i mean) he's strategic and of course the nanny for he's new apprentice make the movie more fun. The best villain go to asaj Ventress voice by Nika Futherma bring the dark tone on what a evil sith is(hey is the closes villain we gonna get since phantom menaces Darth Maul). But the one that i enjoy the most go to smart antic of Ahsoka voice by Ahsley Drane which bring the same sense humor since the first star wars, and giving Anarki a run for he's money when it come for strategic moves(In other words she play a nice role for pushing the skywalker buttons).Is great to see that Samuel Jackson is the voice of Mance Windo for just one scene, But the same go to great and now a star wars icon Christopher Lee to return he's role as Count Dooku.

The action is the same way, is great they used new camera angles from the first person view to the third, the Jedi duels were fun and great, but there were time that someone was pulling the string, the Action doesn't stop bringing same battle style from the second episode to the 3rd. But what like the most(again,) is on how Ahsoka wield her lightsaber, in a more satoichi kind a way, new to the star war universe, the same go to the secret apprentice of dark vader from the upcoming video game the Force Unleashed, that handle the same way ,but who was first? who cares. Is also nice to see again the double lighsaber from Ventress. Now the climbing action was nice for a film like that, not even stallone could come up since rolling cliffhanger.

The animation style is same style of Genky's first clone series, which was great. Cause it have a very unique and very Ant Bully tone. I also notice that some of the coloring was made with water brushes that something that you don't see much in Cg films. If they have gone more like Advent children way, would made it even better? my answer no. Cause really is time that star wars show some comedy, than their previous Ewoks films. I mean really are they suppose to be funny or what.

So don't expect it to be like another epic star wars film, cause this usually cover the clone wars, and not the evolution of Anarki to Darth Vader. Is demographic is children so is funny, but the action is what make it better, of course there's violence, but hey knowing that today youth are playing violent video games, so is ok.

So if you planing to tell your 3 year old that you saw it, you better dress like Elmo, cause they understand that way. Kids and adult with laugh and excited for the new instalment of this saga. Cannot wait for the series cause is on a great start. Now if only we can convince the Lucas guys to start making a Han Solo film or series, that would complete my life.

Next stop death race.

never tell a comedian that can direct a action film

2008-08-13T20:44:00.000-07:00

Ben Stiller started as a comedian for Mtv then later he have he's own show on fox. Then he started to make movies, then later directing Reality Bites, and later Zoolander. They 're consider Cult classic, that made him into a house hold name. But later left directing to star in more movies. Now he's back and he brought along some co-workers, to make a very and unique comedy that mix the gore with the funny. Here's the review:

Based on a book is been turn into a movie, Production is been hold back by the main actors: Tood Speedman(Ben Stiller) once action star, made million in the box offices, came crashing down by the release of Simple Jack. That guarantee him a Oscar nom. Kirk Lazurus(Robert Downey Jr) a well won award actor, make a very strange operation to play the main black man of the platoon. People lost their mind, and Jeff"Fat's"Portnoy(Jack Black) is well know comedian from the series of films of the fatties, make he's drama debut, only he can past he's addition of some white powder. Movie mogul Les Grosman(Tom Cruise)Mad, for investing so much he put the boot to the director Damian Cockburn(Steve Coogan) /$$, now when he is giving a weird advise by the author of the book Four Leaf Tayback(Nick Nolte)

to take them deep to jungle and feel the true experience of war, all shot gorilla style, is something that will kill first the director. So now the cast, accompany by rapper, who doesn't shut up for he's energy drink Alpa Chino(Brandon T. Jackson) and the only guy who read the script also know the country than anybody else Kevin Sandusky(Jay Baruchel), into the wild there gonna be some trouble a calling. Now been hunted by guerilla soldier, is up to them to find their way to the shopper, and prove them self what a actor is all about, then you can expect some award winning performances.

Hand down go to Robert Downey jr, this year's go to him, from Iron man to he transition for playing the Vince rhymes role well done, and also for having the best lines of the film. Ben's is actually good when it come to the simple jack character that make ya wonder is it really the actors playing special people, or are they in to it. Jack Black can beat Courtney love to a punch, with he's snoring depression personality. But Brandon T. can be the best co actor to give robert downey chance to play in a black movie. Danny Mcbridde love him on Pineapple, give this man more role than Kathie Griffin. But the best go to Tom Cruise, finally he's jumping on the oprah show pay off, for this one, this guy doesn't shut he mouth when it come to ransoming a actor.

The action is full knock starting in a very apocalypse now way, and follow to a missing in action moment. From the star of the film god bless there someone who remember to make fake trailers than Ben Stillers. I mean really they show Satan's Alley a gay monk really with Tobey Maguire. Yeah they say grindhouse was forgotten, Danny take a shunk of nature by saying the best line in the film, by exploding a quarter jungle of Vietnam. the action was something coming from a very early Steven Sea gal movie.Jack Black fighting with the asian kid was something that can seen in he's last voice work Kung Fu Panda, but let this guy take the drop on. By far the best Moment go to Ben running while a kid stab him from the back than later throwing it. Best scene of all summer movies. period.

The only bad that can find from this film, is that start slow with first some comedic dialog, than later moving to the physical. There been other film that have follow this same routine from a certain Ben Affleck film. But they should star taking notes on how to make some more side gag.

The team done it right, and there no exception is funny than tom performance in born on the 4Th of July. Ben Stiller have a future for directing, so he better make some more. Is nice to see Tom Cruise take another yelling choice, than Jerry Maguire(really this guys take the whole movie) But really don't show him dancing with hes bald , fat, hairy body. That why we had Patrick Swayze for.

next stop the clone wars.

this is the lethal weapon for stoners

2008-08-06T21:37:00.000-07:00

i when to this years comic-con, to see the next upcoming films, games, and of course the comics. But then i notice they gonna have a conferees for a pineapple express, to see judd Apatow, introducing Seth Rogen and the rest of the cast, so they show some footage's, of the film. When suddenly i remember i mention this film as one to watch in the summer, and well i smoke the film:

Dale Denton(Seth Rogen) was your average guy, making life to others by giving legal orders, to many important people, in hes spare time, he go to Saul(James Franco) he's personal pot dealer. Where he introducing to him, the latest shipment of weed, the fine grass of Pineapples Express. that put a new spin of smoking. On he's last delivering, he witnessed a murder , cause him to bump some car, throw he's roach, and head to the one place he ever thought of going, Saul apartment. So now their been hunted, by the same drug dealers, that made the pineapples. Sending them to a wild adventure to going for dinner at Dales girlfriend house, to fighting a man who till waiting for her wife release of prison, to one of the stupidest car chases of all time, ending in one of stoners shootout of all pot movie. And to prove to all that a beautiful friendship is made, even if that buddy, is more higher than you.

James franco is the chong of this century, period. Hes laugh make made him more funnier than anything he ever made. take that chapell, hey let not forget the Danny Glover, the Nich Nolte of Seth Rogen who seriously could have make this film more good than any other cheech and chong sequels. and lets not forget the sensitive hitman of all Graig Robiso guy is ready for he's own show. Then Red(Danny R. Mcbride) this guy gets shot, then beaten but he doesn't die, which make him more enjoyable when getting your head hit by a bong.

The film is a masterpiece, that cannot be compare, to other pot smoking films that came before it. the action is good and funny, especially when ye get your foot stuck in the window, while been chase by the police, that not even bruce willis could make that. Or a tree way fight sequence that ends so bad, that seriously they should have hire someonme more stone then them to make it so real. But the best go to the the franco vs Perez fight, that only apatow film could ever make it, not a van Damme. Hey let not forget the Seth vs Gary cole fight, that really show you that is important always land with your stomach first.

If the cannon film s were in business, they would hire John Woo, giving him some bag of weed. He would make have made this. By seriously this is something that been missing, for any pot film, some good old grass action. Harold kumar have it, but that more adventure, but not the gun fighting or the fork on your back. that make this a instant classic.

So is a great joy, to see a buddy flick done right, with the same cheesy action dialog, with more laughs than any Chevy chase shows. The film accomplished, now is hard to make this the best comedy film of the summer cause there still one, that's waiting to been show. Ben stillers?Tropic thunder. So until then. Smoke them if you got them.

got excitment, adventure but is all dry up.

2008-08-01T18:35:00.000-07:00

there all kind of mummy's, from the great ones of Egypt, to the l Aztecs, to the well know Chinese emperor. There been many reincarnation, of this famous monster, from the Hammer films, to the one s that certain Sommer directed. Making it into a franchise. Know the saga continue with a orientation twist, that start two well know martial artist, and a new director. So is it good, or is it another Monkey bone for Brenda Fraser, review it:

In ancient china, a the great emperor Han(Jet Li) conquer the whole region, with he's bass army, taking prisoners that construct the great wall, burying the weak. He was unstoppable, but he couldn't stop Death . So he send he best general, to look for a witch, that could make him immortal, that only him, she should belong. But when the general fell the beauty of the witch, The emperor wasn't please, that on the day, the spell was cast by the witch, the lord had a surprising witness to the disembody of her true love. By doing so the emperor, was curse that made him and he's army , into stone. Now the year is 1946, Rick O Cornnell(Brenda Fraser) is spending he's time fishing, while Evelyn(Maria Bello) try to write her next novel, and their son Alex(Luke Ford), who drop of college, is in China doing what great archeoloic, do best, trying to find the lost temple of the Dragon emperor. While a evil militia, gets news that the Cornnell are coming delivering a special artifact, a trap is set. Sow hen everybody is reunited in the imhotep club own by Evelyn brother Jonathan(John Hannah), a new adventure, with a new mummy await them, taking them to the exotic, and tropical of Shangri la, to the furious beast of the Yetis, to a war against a stone army, with a three headed dragon. Lets go all oriental, get the wrap of Jet Li, cause is Mummy 3.

For me the one actor that had the best line of the film, and have the comedic relief goes to John Hannah, as always the whining, slacker off the brother, as for Brenda always, playing the adventures indiana chest hair, as always, the starnge part go to Milla, cause Rachel Weisz character have so much spunk, that really made us love her, and now she act like bond girl, always giving a hand for any problem. The new addition for Luke Ford, cause if a remember better, in the mummy return he have a British accent, and now he sound like your average james Dean act. I cant say much, from part of the villain cause there nothing to say about he's acting, just he know how to make a high kick, As for Michelle Yeoh was pretty plain, but man she till look beautiful.

The story, fell good, when it came to the father and son relationship, and of course the funny line, the mummy film always have the campy style that made it more enjoyable. But this time arounfrd, they try to make more like Indiana Jones sadic. The action keep going which is fine, is the same formula that most Indy have. But there some moments that seem so long, from the curing of Rick to the everlasting love of Alex and Lin. But there 're some comedic moment that film have.

Ok let face it, always about the FX that make the films watchable, this time around they up the anti. From the creation to the Yetis(be honest here, they seem similar to the Van Helsing Wolfman), to the clay walking, regenerating emperor( that till look the same to Imhotep) . I would have love to see more action to the 3 headed dragon. But the best that take the cake, goes to the epic battle, between the emperor army and the undead good guys, that show so much similarity, from others to 3000 and the lord of the ring.

I was more exciting with the fighting that show so little, i mean is china so they should a least put some kung fu, wire work, from the first clash of Li and Yeoh, cause he show talent when he went head to head with Chan in the forbidding Kingdom. In this one was little, and poor, is like they have a small budget that can make the street fighter film look more low kickier.. The Brenda and Li fight was great, with nice street fighting touch, to little kung fu action the film should have promise more high flying, not like matrix type, but more seven sword action.

To finish the 3 installment, ain't perfect like the previous ones, but follow the same entertainment, just coming short, but i tell ya this one, will make some bank. I only wish they would have play more with the power of the emperor.

yeah let Ferrell play nice with John C. in this.

2008-07-30T18:45:00.000-07:00

Family films are hot calamity, now and then. With so many that disney have made, make ya wonder they re the ones who're recycling late and good actor, from College trip to Wild Hogs. But now that's changing with this latest antics that involve both of the best comedian actors, is it good, well a laugh hard, until my laughing spill hit a girl, that got my jaw broken. Heres my review:

When Robert Doback(Richard Jenkins) Meet Nancy(Mary Steen burgen) in one of he's conferees, the heat was on, only that both of them have one thing in common, they got their 40 year old son living with them. So marriage come, then the moving comes, just to set the house to war, Where Brennan(Will Ferrell) meets Dale(John C Reilly) start spilling their hate one and other, from throwing one off the boat, to messing with the drum set, to painting fake scar, to finally hitting both their head, that set the next step, try to find jobs, which they failed a lot. But when Brennan successful, who's wife have had enough of him Brother Derek(Adam Scott) come for a visit, the plate are set, and discussion is made, that make both step brothers find one thing in common their hate for Derek. Starting a beautiful friendship, that have both step-brothers their greatest joy of all time, but when Derek convince Robert to sell the house, is up for some wonder brother touch to stop him. While all come crashing down, when a divorce is made that cause the separation of the family. Now like on every family movie there's a parent trap of a plan to get Nancy and Robert together? Will they suceed?

Thats why seth Rogen is in it too? I got nothing to close with.

Is the dialog of the film that make the start look and sound like children. And the chemistry that Will have with John make ya forget of another duo, like anything that Eddie Murphy have been in. They really act like children, with the screaming to the faces that both can give. But the best go to John C. i mean really was it necessary seen him in underwear, in some part, oh god. This is even worst than looking sara silverman show. Dereck by far is a great douche bag of a brother, that should he's personality in a way that can be seen , in King of Kong 's Billy Mitchell.

The film follow the same plot as like any family film, but older. But where the fun is found, is on the work of Will And John C. the film have a very older disney take, like if Judd Apatow would have be making a film for them. this would have been. the craziness of Robert trying to support them, got a mixture of fresh prince and dennis the menace. The only hitting that would be missing is Steve Martin, who is a king for this kind of film. But overall, is fun to see Will been spank by a older man.

this ain't the best comedy of the summer, cause a certain pot smoking auctioneer is gonna take it. But if you looking for something fun to watch, and see Will in something better than he's sport film that he have made. than go with this.

Comedy film are till coming out, it just a matter on how they make them, like the upcoming Kevin Smith new flick, to the seth rogen film. There plenty more to go around. So watch step-brother cause is good.

they shoul be made for tv.

2008-07-30T17:46:00.000-07:00

that famous sound from the start, of every episode, define what this series was all about, with more of 9 season, and a movie. We saw the strange, and the bizzard cases, that two FBI agents, faces, from the non believer doctor Agent Scully(Gillian Anderson), to the one that always follow the clues without stopping Agent Mulder(David Duchovny). Now a new chapter is made in a movie, directed by non other than the man, that made us believe in conspiracy's. But is it interesting to explore the phenomenon, or it is just another episode. The file is open for a review:

Is been a while since Mulder(David Duchovny) and Scully(Gillian Anderson) left the FBI. Now they 're call back, to solve a case about a missing Agent, handle by agent Dakota Whitney(Amanda Peet), who admire the intuition of Fox Mulder, and he partner the always silent, and just following orders agent Mosley Drummy(Xzibit), that needed the expertise, of the agents, But fox was hiding out in a remote cabin, till wanted by the FBI, and Scully was having problem with a patient, to find treament, they reach a agreement, that would let them work on the case, they first have to figure out the vision of a ex priest father Joseph Crissman(Billy Connolly) that tie him to the missing FBI agent, and taking them, to where the clues are. Revealing a whole new series of disappearances that be happening. But will Scully stay on the case, or will she rather focus more on her patient? And will Mulder find the missing agent, with or without help of the FBI?

O yes the true is till out there.

The acting of both main actor David and scully till have that flair, that made us love this character, from their questioning, to their connection they have, but the only flaw that it have when to the very sloopy comedic moments that really didn't felt right. Amanda Peet take, was your average cliche of the agent that sooner or later she gonna be kill. It wasn't that convincing. And that one that i least dislike go to Xzibit, i mean seriously this guy is a rapper, and taking a serious roll, is like rapping how great the law is. Xzibit get better acting, that are more connected to who you are. But the big surprise go to former boos Agent Skinner(Mitch Pileggi) that over the time, that he have been in other TV series like sg1 or Atlantis, that character haven't gone away.

Now the story it have a nice concept involving the stem cell research, and the nice dark suspense that the series have. the the problem it didnt feel like a follow up to the series, and the well know alien conspiracy. But just another case, that reunited them. they should have waited i least 15 years to make it into a movie, with today theater been pack in with suspense films, X-files doesn't reach that genre, i see it more like soap opera, with a paranormal twist.

The film is good, but not like the first one. But good, it would have been better, if they just added the computer geeks that are know in the series as the lone gunmen, or see if the smoking man live. But the movie was trying to be another episode, that reunited them to solve it. Like any episode, that case is unresolved.

From the tv show, many series are following the same taste, that x-file started, is just sad that can be said for this movie. If you wanna see what happen to your favorite agents, and unravel the clues then go, but if you feel is just another episode, then buy the dvd set. Now that's how the true is found.

step a side jack let heath do the laughing

2008-07-18T22:41:00.000-07:00

everybody know that batman is anon superhero, but he know he's ways to solve the thorougher crimes, in gotham. But he always feel a challenge when it come to gotham demented of all. This time a know actor take the roll of playing by far the best perfomance of the year, and only golden statue should be remember by this is my review by far the best film of the year:

gotham city most wanted are fear, and scare by the most dark of all night, and they have enough. So when a unknown is robbing banks, by gotham most mobster. Is time to bring someone that know the solution. By then Bruce Wayne(Christopher Bale) is trying to find a new fit to he's bat suit, while someone is recollecting the mob last cash, when someone that know how to make a pen disappear, make a proposal with a smile the joker (Heath Ledger). to give them half to take care of the problem. He start for making hit to the city most prestige lawmaker, putting the heat on the batman. So when the D.A. Harvey Dent(Aaron Eckhart) take charge of the situation, hell try to break losse. Now is time for the knight to take back what's right, and find he's most obstacles of all. This is the day when everybody know that knight prove the good of what the city is made. The masterpieces of the batman.

is like Martin Scorsese directed this, by far this is the best film of not the summer but the year, Heath take the credit for this one, he can make Hannibal Lecter shine he shoes with he tongue. Know one deserve more screen time than him, by playing the best comic villain of all time, that makes us love him more, for he's crimes, than he jokes(seriously who you gonna see make a penn disappear, really). Hey let not forget Eckhart by playing the twisted thug of all batman rogue the two face. A nice surprise well play by the director finding a good way of adding another villain to the mix. Maggie performance is something that needed to keep the film going for not losing the touch, the innocent of her character prove the true challenge of what batman is all about. Than let not forget the dark knight himself, i felt he voice needed some coughdrop, but hey well done for playing the cape cruiser, by far lets be honest he will be remember by playing the best batman since Adam West.

The story felt more like it was written by the god of comic writer Alan Moore, i mean this ain't iron man this is a actual film, that only could be describe been directed by Oliver Stone. The time that we get to know the joker was a nice introduction that only came off the graphic novel The Killing joke. The chase sequences was well craft, by introducing to he bike but the way he go all empire strike back walker to the truck is something that's gonna make us forget it. Than the Hong Kong sting, with the flying, this is something that any director could ever thought about. And finally what i felt the real challenge of Batman the building shot, taking town first the cop, after finding out that hostages were the bad guys, is something that prove to you that the joker is still the best villain of all time. And only the bat is the man to beat him in he's on game. Most of the action felt good, to Die hard good. Yeah this is something that will make way on how to make a comic heroes more good.

With more comic movies like this their ain't no comparison, to what this one achieve. So if you 're planning to see it, than do it don't wait, buy that Hot topic Batman t shirt and see this film. And find out on why the dark knight ain't a super hero but a great detective (that really show) .

The movie truly show is about more on the gangster than the hero.

And to close in a sad not, everybody saw this film, should be feeling bad by the best performance of the joke. Heath, was a well actor, who know of what real acting was all about, and he did deserve the most credit by making this flick. And will know he's gone. He's acting will prove to all, is not always the story is always told but the acting that make us to believe that's them. That make us believe that good the movie is.

So this review goes to him. For making us to believe there's always a better joker, than jack.

Next stop step brother n X-files.

Directed and feel Mexican.

Is always a unique touch when it come knowing Director Guillermo Del Toro. Dropping he's drama part, and taken more a fun , comedic, and sometime karate style for he's latest. Bringing back the beer drinking, foul mouthing, raising hell temper red demon:

Hellboy, so does the sequel bring more satire adventures or is not worth to drink for, here's my horn breaker of review:

In time Human was at war with the mystic creatures from goblins, ogres, and elves, that never ended, until, prince Nuada(Luke Goss) advise he's father The King, for constructing a invincible army, that can obey him every order, with out any hesitation, build by the finest metal of the ogres, a army that decimated, humanity. The king felt regret for what he did, that he made a truce with the human. By then he son when to exile, as for the crown that give him the power to control it, it was shatter by 3 pies one given by the human, and the 2 were kept. Now that time have came when Princesis out to reclaim it, and take back what once was there. Attacking first auction house, where by then The BPRD, are having problem of their own, with Hellboy(Ron Perlman) always taking picture in the public eye. He's having girlfriend problem with Liz(Selma Blair), while Abe Sapien try to enjoy the mood. All that change whern they go to investigated the problem, but with Red been untamed, is time for a new agent to join the party. Coming Johann Krauss(voice by Seth Mcfarlane) to take the command and start investigating but when the princessNuala(Anna Walton) seek their help, for not letting he's brother get the final piece of the crown, that will awaken the golden army, is time to meet my big red stone hand. But wait there's till the couple problem they have to solve, will they?

this is the best perfomance from Ron Perlman yet, with the personality he give to this character theres no wondering why folk love the big red skin Demon, with witty dialog, to the no take prisoner attitud, to the fun he have to just accomplishing a mission. Selma, show more acting this time around, been the mother figure to the team. Than come the bookworm amphibian Abe Sapien a first having seen in comic, but on this film he get he's scale wasted, when it come chatting of love, then finally the man to follow the order specialising in ectoplasm(slime i think) Who dont have a physical body, but a very smoking form that need to be in a contaiment suit, voice by Family Guy creator seth Mcfarlane coming from all people that like to make funny Mexican joke, why put him as a German voice, i mean seriously this is a strange voice acting they did, i rather go with Ben Kindley. Now Luke goss role, was deviant, and evil, the scene where he go and kill the king was some fancy choreography that only once can be seen in a John Woo. I felt Anna Walton role was cut short, really they went somewhere with the relation she was having with Abe. That could have been the center role for the picture.

The story was a change, cause mostly the BPRD investigated paranormal activity, and this one feel the cross Lord of the ring with X-men. The scene of the ogre black market felt like the cantina bar of the 1rt star wars, Guillermo let loose with he's creativity, introducing to a whole variety of creatures. that not even george Lucas could never made. From the same gobbling tone of laberynth to the golden armor of dungeon and dragon way. I mean the tumor baby, that can only been seen in total recall. And the no leg troll that was creepy. But let be honest here the 2 love story of the picture go flat, when most of the attention go more to Ron n Liz, and not to abe, that really he should have more screen time with the princess. But of course the chemistry that hellboy start having with Jonh it was more fun than any Rush hour film. I mean the locker scene that only could have made if casper was crack addict ghost. but really take the cream for this flick, go to the drunkenness of friends, showing why we really need frat buddies like hellboy, to keep in mind why love sucks.

But what about the action? well there's plenty of it, from the first fight with hellboy and Mr.wink, they when all WWf with it. to the confrontation with the Princess, that only in a Kung fu film you can see move like that. But the best one go to the plant monster, were we see some good foot work from the big red, introducing us to his big baby. Or the slip and slide of Abe when facing Wink alone. The golden army, was by far hard to see, cause really with so many armor, blocking the shot there's noway where hellboy was. But Krauss really took that scene, by possessing one of them, and going all transformer like, was good.

So it come to show you if in the near future any one is making a review of the lord of the ring in modern time , Hellboy2 is a good example. Guillermo made a very stylish and fantasial film with this one. From he's previous film, is good than the 1srt, sure it lack in the story, but the laughs were there, from anything hellboy punch, to inventing a word like glasshole. So don't expect nothing like pan laberynth. Cause this film show Guillermo Mexican side. And well done.

To finish, guillermo got the style for making any fantasy film, with this, he have many to prove. so yeah he's ready for the hobbit.

next stop the dark knight.

you got to be #$$hole to see this film.

2008-07-02T17:44:00.000-07:00

Will smith right now is the busiest person in Hollywood, with so many successful films, this man very well cab take on the 4th of July weekend. From great sci-fi film like Emerich ID4, to the Tommy Lee Jones buddy flick Man in Black 1and 2. Now he taking another role, that already is making a genre by itself, a superhero, directed by Peter Berg. Does he cut it, or is it something he couldn't fly to.

Here my review:

John Hancock(Will Smith) ain't your average superhero, yeah he save the days, sometimes, costing millions of damages, when he doing it, he's a drunker, a hater, and just plain couchpotato . That the public hate him, city hall more. That when he saves the life of Ray Embrey(Jason Bateman) a public relation, that find the opportunity, to help Hancock and win the public than been a flying alcoholic. For starters he advise him, to give himself up, and do time in jail(which in the end it doesn't go well), while Ray help him to be good, and how to make eye contact. While he recover, the city star to suffer, from the many wave of crimes. So that where he hear the calling, when a bank robbery is taking place. Shave, sober, and exhibiting a new suit, he is off to become L.A. defender, but there still the question of where he come from, how did he get those powers, and what connection does he have with Embrey wife Mary(Charlize Theron). This is the story of one man doing the possible, on taking advise by a guy who want to put a heart all over the world, and putting the head of someone in the rear. That's Hancock.

The story confuse me a lot, cause on the star show who he's is, demonstrating the many mischief, and destruction, when it come been a superhero, he by far the mouth show the comedic side. Then it go to the transition of a loser recovery that have a more serious and dramatic tone. The point of this film, is confusion, i mean what they were trying to tell. Is it a comedy, or just plain drama, cause Will have done that, in other movies, but when it come doing a twist to the superhero genre he try to give it another Oscar thought. Not even the Hulk can dothat, that's why is always destruction, and nothing of drama.

Will Smith performances, start great with him just speaking, and making trouble everywhere he goes. The same fun acting he gave in Independent Day. By then he go to he's pursuit of Happiness moment, which is a fast change(being the movie that last only 98 min). Jason Bateman coming from the hilarious (and cancel) Arrested Development, manege to pull it off, by been the manager, from the way that he teach him to say Good job, to giving him the uniform. Jason is getting all the atention . Now Charlize part was good, but typical, as the woman that distrust Hancock, and have mysterious connection. But most of the film she play it like guest host to the Jerry springer show.

Peter Berg shots, where great, some of the sequences were nice, from the whale scene, to the shoot out in the bank, he knows to make action scene, from he's last film the Kingdom, he give it another document look. Being Produce by Michael man the film show potential of what the superman could have been, for this. But when it come to the story telling it just go, flat.

Manny film have gone another direction, than your stander superhero film, and making somethiong new. but there hasn't been one, from Ivan Reitman My super ex girlfriend to the Super hero movie. the power of originality doesn't have. In the Marvel universe there already a bum of a superhero is name is the D-man(For demolition), that suffer the same thing.

For peter berg is know more in making great drama film, but when it come to comedy and superhero, he rather be directing superman 3. The film ain't bad, it got funny part, but the way is told, confuse it, especially when they don't mention what are they, or what purpose they have.

To finish, the movie try to show some moral value, but Will smith ain't flying good for this one, i least i like to see a spin off of the Jason character, i man that help superhero images. Now there's something they can do.

well i didn't wanted this way.

2008-06-27T22:32:00.000-07:00

seriously now and day, comic based movies are not always superheros, ye know man in thigh, saving the world. Cause there's, another entertainment call graphic novels. From road to perdition to a history of violence, they are taking Hollywood, with great originality, in story telling. From great novels master, Alan Moore, to Neil Gaiman. Now there's one that follow the style just the 20% while the rest is pure adrenaline action, this is Wanted, and this is my review:

Pay close attention cause their will be some geek fact.

Wesley Gibson(James McAvoy) is your average guy, with stuck up job as accountant, in a infernal of cubicle, with a best friend that is doing her girlfriend, and with that comes anxiety attack. Life is beautiful, until he meet in a market The Fox(Angeline jolie) that tell him about the death of he's father Mr.x(David O'Hara), where he's recruited to a secret society of assassins, that have exited, since time itself calling themselves the fraternity. Now Wesley begins to truly take control of hes life when he discover hes inheritances, that make him give the f word to everything everybody that was he's life, from confessing the true life to her boss, to hitting with a keyboard he's former BF. To join this society Wesley have to endurance, straight hit to the face, knife fighting with a butcher, to even jumping over bridges, while running on the roof of a subway. But the best come when he got to curve the bullet. Following the sheet fabric that call the loom of faith that reveal to them by binary number, the names of the people that must die by their bullets. Is go time for Wesley, but when they need him the most to hunt down a rogue assassin, that's killing them one by one. Wesley better get he's gun clean up to hunt him down. But something goes wrong, when a mistake is made, will Wesley avenge he's father death? What secrets is the fraternity hiding? he's already Wanted.

Ok geek fact here, in the graphic novel, most of the characters ain't assassins , but supervillains, that already have control of the wold, and ain't form by just one fraternity, but four. From the star of the film goes faithful, but until we see Jolie, well it turn. The story does follow some element from which is base on. but loose track of the meaning of what the story is truly about.

The acting of Mc avoy is top notch he very well be Zack from save by the bell, from he's anxiety attack to he's dirty harry attitude, this guy is going places, especially when it come to action. On Angelina part i felt it more to the same seductress style she gave in MR & Mrs Smith, quiet, serious, it doesn't cut it for me, she better make another Oscar worthy performance, cause here she just a lady with a gun with no chemistry. Morgan Freeman said a curse word, that really sound it like shaft, this man is already following in step of walker in taking different role.

Coming from action Russian director Timur Bekmambetov, has a vast fascination to the matrix movies that he have up the anti, but this being He's first American film, kind come flat, the car flipping to get the shot in top of a limo, was something that only Michael bay have done, but without the shot, or the pick me up in your viper in the parking lot of the grocery store, are some well, but honestly the chase sequence driving with your feet while being in front of the car, and shooting from behind that's so terminator 2. What i will give is train crash, by far not even Steven seagal under siege 2 can make a car jump and make a spectacle of it. but honesty the siege on the factory, and the well is play out , make the hall shootout of the 1rst matrix make it wipe it on baby bottom, i mean really this is something that you can see in a shooter game or even a kung fu flick. With the cashing of the gun, while shoveling to the head of a former friend, is pure classic.

I don't approve the way they made the film, if they have gone in the original graphic novel , the budget would been higher. But let alone to the visual of the action, this film can only be compare than action film. period.

I mean is great we see something standardizing from Mrs. Jolie, but hey she was better in Beowulf, but the y should added, more story to the fraternity, but introducing more than one.

the action sequence are great, but they should have made more, and surprise us, like in the style of Night watch and Day watch. Look i m true fan to the comic, and bottom line this film is great, not excellence, but great. that truly entertain ya with the fine acting of McAvoy, and the comedy tone that have. So go out and pull out the gun, and give this one a try, and let see if you can really curve the bullet for this.

he's this decade tin man with a hearth

2008-06-27T18:38:00.000-07:00

Is been a while that i haven't seen a pixar film, the only one that ever like(beside toy story) the incredible, i still waiting for that sequel. But now it surprise me they went all sci-fi, giving us a little robot trash can, a head in the form of venaculars, a body of a gamecube, and legs of a tank. Oh yeah he very well is and offspring off r2d2 and short circuit's Johny 5. Here my review:

2700 humanity have left the planet thank to one major corporation call Bnl(Buy a Lot) that made us into lazy shopping consumers, ah the magic of capitalism. well anyway the more we bought the more made us forget to pick up our the garbage. until it turn into a state of emergency, that earth wasn't anymore inhabitable. and starting a new life in space, living in cruise ship, where the definition of relaxation was sitting down into gravity chair, drinking your slurpee, talking with your friend wall day, while the machines do our work. Leaving the thrash to special unit of cleaners robots call Wall.e(Waste allocation load.lifter.Earth Class). Which their only purpose was to pick up our garbage. Withing years most stop working becoming obsolete, except one, that start having a personality of it own, from love of collecting rare items, like rings, key-cars, to having a cockroach as a pet, and living in a dumb trunk, where he storage he's finding, his spare parts when something is need of repair, and every night he See's the movie that make him dance, and maybe, maybe hold the hand on that special someone. Living any life ordinary , until he start chasing a laser pointer of sort leading him through a ship leaving a capsule, calling her Eve(Extraterrestrial vegetation evaluation)when active, scanning the environment, to find any kind of plant life. so he start following her, until she start noticing him. showing her the many wonders of he's collection, and the worlds. Making her enjoy her stay, until he show her, a boot with a plant, shutting herself off and activating a beacon, while he take care of her, from rain, sun, and a boat ride. Until the rocket come to pick her, taking him into space where the many wonders of the stars can surprise the human eye. Boarding in a cruise ship, he start looking for her, he notice the change of men, becoming into the next step of couchpotatevolution. when he meet the captain(Jeff Garlin), he get the news of what the eve unit found, only to be stolen by some one, So is up to our hero, to rescue his true love, and getting the plant to the main reactor of the ship, taking humanity back where once was home. Is a Wall. adventure.

the movie have a very moral message of where technology, and the real problem of obesity, and shooping of product, is something that anyone should start noticing. Cause really there more people at home spending their time in front of a computer, or their big plasma Hd tv. That inspire them to make a very unique take of the future.

Pixar have outdone itself, with the magnificent visual of space, this is by far the best lighting and design of space, that will make NASA envy of quality picture. There's no denial, is that good than Titan a.e. and treasure planet can combine. The animation is as always very fluid, by standard there's nothing cubicle (than Wall.e) that this movie have. Also take notice this is the first time that actual pixar movie use a real life person, thank to the comedic style of non other Fred Willer.

Hey lets not forget our star, Wall.e is the most entertaining robot of any picture than certain yellow, and short droids. Wall.e have emotion and it come from he's vernaculars eyes, to he's sheer enthusiast off discovering new thing, and been clumsy when it comes impressing eve. The chemistry they have is what this movie is all about. from her shooting at him, to her very sinterzy laugh. Well crafting when it come to the dance floating in space, will win the feel and joy of this movie, if you wonder where the hearth of the movie is on this scene. this can be surpass to the gala dance of beauty and the beast.

The movie with capture the hearth for all ages that can only come from pixar by introducing to the lovable a mini thrash picking bot, and he's white capsule girlfriend. that make Wall.e a sure pixar movie, that follow the same entertainment of finding Nemo to the friend ship in Toy story.

so go out and enjoy it is recommend it, but remember try to change sit cause their gonna be lots of women felling for this film that you won't be able to hear it. Really girls the movie have feling but doesn't mean you have ruin for us, with your Hahn. Cause really we don't wanna contact with our feminine side.

What really is Happening?

2008-06-18T19:12:00.000-07:00

He have taken ghost, then aliens in a farm, Unbreakable bald hero, then weird stuff happening in a village, and finally a Girl near a pool. Yes M. Night have made it all into box offices hits, but with special ingredient call twist.

Now he directing he's first R rated film call the Happening, does it have the touch that he always give, or is it another that's the people know what surprise is gonna have? Here my review:

Like in any day, Central Park is having the same winding day like any other, people walking, some are sitting in the bench reading, or eating, when all of sudden they stop, and star repeating the last word they said, to just finish it by killing themselves. By that time we meet a science teacher Elliot Moore(Mark Wathlberg) where the school call all teacher to notify the happening, Thinking that it is a terrorist attack, other something else. Elliot head home to get hes wife Alma Moore(Zoey Deschannel) going to the train station to meet up with a friend Julian(John Lequizamo) and her daughter. By the moment they get into the train, is stop by near town, where they eat in a dinner, and watching the news reporting that is occurring in Northeast, by then scare and panic they head to a safe zone where the infection can get to them, but later Elliot find out if they travel in large group they die. So now is up to him to save her wife and the girl, for not killing one of other, facing other paranoid people, to taking shelter in a old women house. They say the plants are out to get us, for what we doing to the planet? or is it a conspiracy of the USA goverment? or a leak from a nuclear plant? what the reality then?

The acting of mark Walthberg ain't that good, he's acted more like a teen heartdrop, then he's performances of a dirty harry character. Always doing he homework to getting out of a jam. Doing the math, or thinking like a nerd. Zoey Kind like hers, the emotionest wife, always thinking the worst, and then is john Which really i didn't get he's beef against Zoey what it was about they should have reveal more detail on those character, then just letting fight anyway.

The story for what is focus on is non other than global warming, i mean seriously the plant doing this, well is true to what is happening to most harvest, they 're not doing very well. By hard for me to believe that person can kill himself by breathing the toxins they release. That the cause confusing , that later comes non movement, than death, is hard to believe that. I saw the movie more like a display of killing, that seriously is some most disturbing, that this film have to offer, the tag killing where a person shoot himself than later drop it, for another person pick it and do the same thing, continuing it until there's nobody else to pick it.

There some scare moment, like he first the 6 sense, but there ain't that much suspence, i mean the killing scene ain't that bloody, or gory. But more uncomfortable to see, for Shyamalan making he's first R rated was kind of a lost. The film ain't boring or not even scary, the man know you scare people, but he doesn't know to turn it into a horror.

Reality, the film doesn't accomplish any interest in the character or the story, this feel much as pg-13, i mean seriously if ye want some scare try to learn it from Rob Zombie Halloween, was i name it the best scare of 07. So for better or worst he better tick with pg-13 suspense, than R. Cause you need more than suicide of people, to make this film into another hit.

Next stop Wall-e and wanted

you don't hit guillermo in the belly, when he's the Hulk

2008-06-13T17:22:00.000-07:00

Ang Lee Take on the Hulk had drama, action, than more Drama.
Hit big in the box office, but had bad review by the fan. Like all marvel film had cameo appearance of stan "the man"Lee, to the 70's tv version Lou Ferrigno, But now he's the voice of the green monster. Remade under the banner of the Marvel studio, did they successive it? Here's my review:

Bruce Banner (Edward Norton)was re own scientist speciality on gamma radiation, when lab accident change him from a man to sciences to a man on the run, hiding from the military under the command of general Thunderbolt Ross(William Hurt), hes been chase from all over America. In the desperate moment Bruce try to find a cure, before he become property of the goverment. So a now son to be retire soldier by the last name of Blonsky, get he chance to capture him, The only person that could help Banner Is anonymous contact from he laptop, calling himself Mr. Blue, reuniting to her lost love and daughter of he's arch nemesis General Ross Dr.Elizabeth Ross (Liv Tyler). So now is matter of time before the good doctor become green, but everything could change when Blonsky(Tim Roth) become obsessive for what they gave him , becoming into something more menacing than the emerald beast. Now the destruction will come to NY, where last stand of both beast will come to a final blow. Hulk mash.

Edward Norton performance didn't convince me not that much, as the desperate scientist, but when it come to getting angry that's where he shine more. Liv Tyler acting was nice but more of a slow process, that really need to be seen in a soap opera. As for William Hurt wasn't that rought as the general but still convince. But the man that really give the up on he's role is Tim Roth he is quentified for every role he is in. He can make anybody see how a real man can take a hit to a tree.

Now for the action when it come to the hulk, This time he didn't look like a cg ninja turtle, with the new grey green tone, he look more menacing, and more fear. The first confrontation that he have was nice, by destroying everything without noticing that harm he was doing around, from the the ripping of a hummer to the destruction, to the kick ass fight he have with Blonsky, that could only be compare to the real fight he had in the ultimate comic against Captain America. The Last crem go to the confrontation with against The abomnation, that a fight like that cannot by seen in a WWE match, from the pounding he does with the used of some car pieces gloves, to the excitement buy hanging in the helicopter, to the most memorable scene in the movie the saying of Hulk Smash. There's nothing good, to the perfection they did with the direction of Louis Leterrier, what was the Ang Lee was missing Ang Lee version :comedy.

Some chase shots were well done, reminisce to the bourne film, but when it come to the cg shot were all dark, except to the army, were the fire work get more fire, but when it come to the abomination fight, they when all cloverfield to it. And best of all there were people flying which was important from a monster film.

From the story view, i like s they took some element taken from the comic, from the relationship of Banner and Mr.Blue, that come from Mr. 100 bullet Himself Brian Azzarrello.To the mentioning of the super soldier serum, can anyone say Captain America, the style of the film have basing it more on the 70's tv series, it doesn't feel like a fugitive , or a bourne flick. The only letdown that had ,was more fighting with the abomination cause really i saw the destruction, and the hurting. But it needed some building falling, and some car throwing, the same mayhem that godzilla do, when he's period hit.

So with the feud that marvel had with Norton, on what version was gonna make the cut, there's no wrong do it. The movie accomplish on all level, then its predecessor. It doesn't compare to the Iron Man film, but the excitement can be seen in green. I don't know what strategy marvel have, by the look of it, they are heading to a new horizon when it come making a real comic movie.

The movie was good, not great, but shows its potential when it come by unknown french director that knows it craft, from making Unleash n Transpotter2, Dc better take note when it come to directing, and acting. And finally Stan Lee he always wanted to be the hulk, well didn't see it, but betcha, he was ready set the place on fire, like he did in the universal lot.

Next stop the Happening.

so where's the suspense of it?

2008-05-30T20:19:00.000-07:00

Every now n then there comes a film, that doesn't show the horror or the gore, but just the scare, and the use of low budget. Comes the strangers, with today used of the camera, is all film in shaky cam, which many filmmaker describe"a way to show the realism". Well they accomplish it. here the review:

Young couple come home from a wedding reception,staying in a cabin in the outskirt of the city, James Hoyt(Scott Speedman) was crush from been rejected by Kristen Mckay(Liv Tyler) by showing the ring. Not speeking, silence stood, to forget everything. They drink some champagne, eat some ice scream, take a shower, and light the chimney, when suddenly someone star knocking their door, to see who it was, a woman star asking for a name. which tell her "sorry", leaving she go to the shadow. When James go out , Kristen star receiving more knocking, from all apart of the house, when it revealed she was been stalk, by 3 mask people. Driving her to the point of paranoia, when James comes home, thing get more deadlier:

1st stealing their cellulars.

2nd destroy any transportation they got.

3rd kill anyone that come to help them.

4rd take any weapon they got in their arsenal.

5ht Star playing with them.

This is one night they will never forget, if they make it out alive.

Ok, the thing that i like of the film, was the way they shot it, using the shaky cam. How it base on real life event, give that tone of what is gonna happen to this couple, i mean if something real and scary is gonna been shot camera, there be a lot of movement. And the way the killers come out from the shadows, is something that already been used by the 90's slasher films. But in this one, they play it right, giving the scare for happening every moment. Is a surprise how this killers gave me some chill for just appearing.

Now the bad, most of the movie that the killer, just scaring the audiences than the couples. I mean i felt it more like a suspense but not a horror, this same style they shot I know what you did last summer. then less not forget when in one scene, Scott speedmane go to the barn to call for help.Knowing that wheres one of killer come out, i mean to they know there's a radio there or they getting ready to smash it when one of them use it. I mean there's no logic to it. But the big surprise come when they don't tel who are the killers or what they look like. Especially when on the why they 're stalking them?

So the movie got some suspense n scare, by a low budget. It wasn't bad, but little disappointing by not telling who were the killers. My theory just a couple hillbillers, looking for some fun i guest.

The movie was date to be release last October. But they change it cause of the saw phenomenon. So it was left in hiatus until they announce it for May, from seen it i think they should have left it for a dvd release. period.

At 65 he can till whip it.

2008-05-22T18:24:00.000-07:00

First of all, i wanna star out with a apology, from my last blog that came wrong, from manny misspelling to not correcting the words, and the paragraphs. Now lets begin, is been 19 years since the last adventure, but there were rumors for a 4th installment, but there were problems, with the makers n the studios. Last year, Shia labeouf announce the new tittle in the mtv's music videos awards.
Calling it the Kingdom of the crystal skull, Spielberg said that fan's "were gonna be disappoint", is he right? here my slash of a review:

the year is 1957, america was fearing from communism, but when convoy of soldier, head to a secret military base, taken with them the one and only Dr. Jones(Harrison Ford) and he's companion Mac Mchale(Ray Winstone), to find a very magnetic crate, that hold something from out there. Miraculous escaping thank to jet turbine, he find shelter in a near town, not knowing it was a nuclear test. Surviving it, he is question, for what happen in the base. Back home it doesn't get better, when he is fire from teaching cause they charge him for helping the red's. But when he receive a message from a biker greaser name Mutt(Shia Lebouf) asking him for help to save his mother and a profesor Oxl(play by legendary British actor John Hurt) That Indy know him, He try to unravel a riddle that take them to South America Peru. Where they search take them to find the crystal skull. Just to fall right into russian hands. Held by the sword swinger Dr.Irana Spalko(Cate Blanchett), and reuniting with a very lost love Marion Ravenwood(Karen Allen), to escape and start a new adventure that take them, to confront, new danger, falling 3 times to a waterfall, to man eating ants, to find the lost city that is call El Dorado.

The acting of Harrison ford was the best thing from the film, from hes fear of snake(that still get some laught) to hes daring stunt, o yeah hes back to the Famous archaeologist, Cate Blanchett playing as a villain that a first for me, cause she really know her russian character, reminded me of another call Diana from the V tv series(if anyone know it). I think The best moment of Karen Allen comes when she argue with Harrison, and of course the secret that tell him too. I was very confuse with the Ray Winstone part cause really who is he, a russian or cia? Labeouf started good, playing the rough and stuff biker, that rescue, but he lost me in some scene, but the relationship he start having with Indy, really give the style of sarcasm that the films have.

Npow the story follow the same formula to the others, from beginnings finding him in danger, to been hire for a job or trying to find someone, later some adventures, than fight it off against a big brute, more adventure n danger, and ending it with a very big bang. I enjoy his escape from the military warehouse, with the way he used the whip, o yeah you can tell that important for the film, to the biker chase that ain't neither close when comparing it to the bike chase of 3rd bourne movie. I kind enjoy the duel of the jeeps between Shia and Cate. But some them were over top ridiculous, i mean swinging shia, what is he, but wait then he receive help from the monkeys, he ain't Tarzan but more of George. Than who here survive 3 waterfalls, really who.
Some of the jungle is mostly made of Cg. Really you can tell it.

Like the mixing of the legend of el dorado to the mystery of the famous area 51, but with psycho turn that you can't compare to the previous ones, yeah people it involve little green men. honestly i kind like it , is a new way to telling it for new generation. Manny old fan won't take the like kind. Is sometime it get strange. But the true gold is in the classic gag that films are very know at. So the magic is till there. With great lines, to the entertainment that you wont leave your sit for nothing.

I said it, "it wasn't gonna be good to the 3rd, but will be entertained". that's all about it.
But be honest is good to see Harrison into the role that he most recognize at. So is the 5th one gonna be made and will star shia Lebouf as the title character? Well i won't answer that.
but lets hope it happen in another 19 years. Period.

Best film so far, with a little spanish flavor in it.

Kid fantasy, is what making wave this days:
Eragon, the searcher, but non of them couldn't reach the hype to the Harry Potter film. But when a particular film from 2005 premier in December, that involve a lion, witch, and the wardrobe.
Well ye don't get a fable, but a epic. Now a not so sequel, but a follow up, comes, and this time the kids ain't the stars but a young Spanish(of course he's British theater actor)prince.
Here's my sound of the horn of a review:

A century have passed, and Narnia land have been torch by the arrival of the Telmarine, that have exiling all mystical beast of the land(that count, centaurin, dwarfs, goat people, minotaur, ogres, etc,). But when the son of King Miraz is born, he order the dead of he's nephew who's the rightful heir to the throne, prince Caspian(Ben Barnes) Help by he's professor, he escape to the woods, where he blow the horn. While back to the real world Susan(Ana Popplewell), Edmund(Skandar Keynes), and little Lucy(Georgie Henley), make their way, to the subway. But when a fight broke, involving Peter(William Moseley), cause he wasn't to be taken seriously. But when their world change, they re transported back to Narnia, only to find ruins. So they make their way to find Aslan.
Meanwhile Prince Caspian is taken refuge with a dwarf n badger, where take him to meet up with the others narnian, where they put him in trial, for what he people have done, and taken.
So the Prince promise them, their land back, if they help him take back he's crown, and help of the Pevensie siblings, is time to act, and return the Telmarine prince to the rightful throne. but when problems ab rum, when a clash of disagreement comes between Peter n the Prince, their chances to win, seem hopeless.
Will they work together?

First of the Prince himself make a very dashing star, that can make a senior women droll over. This time the kids don't act that much, but in the case of William, struggling to be a man was a great star, especially that argument he have with the prince. and this time we get to see Ana with the bow in action finally. And they say the spanners can act evil tell that to Sergio Castellitto, playing King Miraz, with just having that beard he very well be the captain hook of the story. But the one that i describe it as the scratch(of ice age) go to a swashbuckling mice call Reepicheep, that almost take the movie, but is a fun character to follow. And of course Liam Nesson is back to reprise he's role as aslan.

Coming from the director of the 1st shreck movie, he do justice , when it come to the visual, i mean there places that can be compare to another epic movie 3rd harry potter film, with great landscape, great wide shot to the Telmarine castle. But enough of that, lets talk about the fx, this time they gave all to bring the mystical beast great touch est to the real hair of the minotaur, to the human body of the centaurs, but beside there the animals are all cg. But of course the true delight of the fx's go to water creature, that can't be compare to the water horses of the 1st LOTR.

But the difference to the 1st is, this time their dead, from the creatures to the beast, they didnt stop to make it more real, especially the fight between Peter and Miraz. Far non, this ain't a Pg film. Now there something that i got to point out the battle armours of the Telmarine have so much influences to the Spanish conquistador, specialty, is they look straight out of a Don Quixote look. What i real like of the film, is they tone of the enemy, who they were, cause most of this actor that play them are all Spanish, and some Mexican too. So this is a very unique thing coming from a fantasy film. Hey i m Mexican i know my history.

the problem that i had with the 1st , there were great storytelling, but little lets acting, this time they done right, so there is a perfect film.

So, if weren't satisfy with last weekend race, if you know what movie i m talking about. then let Disney fill you up with a finally great epic n fantasy movie. And give yourself, a little bit discovering to another culture, especially when is European. Go and explore the world of Narnia.

next stop lets meet a man that travel the world with a whip.

stylish, colorful, but forget that, is always the car.

Base on the first anime series that made it to our tv in the late 60's. Follow now the trend of cartoon to movie. Always the story was in speed, and only that , but with adventure, intrigue, action crushes harder than taken a drink with Lisa lohan . To this film got the acceleration needed to make it a great or family film? turn the light, smoke the engine, and drive on my review:

Speed racer(Emily Hirsh) is a young race driver, coming from a family with history on cars, from Pop(John Goodman), Mom(Susan Saradon), Spritle(Paulie Litt) and their pet ape Chim chim, with their mechanic Spark(Nick Gurry). He follow in his bigger brother Rex, he try to be thebest on what he love most. But when he reject a multi billion corporation by the name of Royalton(Roger Allan). Threatening him and he's family, by losing every race he's in. But find help by the mysterious mask man racer x(Matthew Fox) and inspector Detector( Benno Fürmann) that work for the C.I.B. To bring justice and prove that royalton involment have been fixing every race. For a miserable profit on their action. With the family and trixie(Christina Ricci) behind him. Speed discover the true meaning of what it is to drive. Welcome to the world of stunt racing. And a story of a racer that change that.

Ok some of the acting so much of the badguys is second rated. I mean this is a film that should have gone to DVD. but i got say is not all bad, cause of the cartoonish they really give some fun tothe film. The best go to Paulie Litt and his chimp, that take most of the movie, from their love of candy, to their hi jink when it come hiding in the drunk of the Mach 5. Especially the the dragon ball scene. Great work, Christina was sweet and very observing when it come using the helicopter, but far goes to the comedy expression and mean looks of John Goodman, and the confidense of Susan Sarandon make the movie more enjoyable, Emily Hirch was good for main protagonist, that already he have done on other films. But lets get serious Matthew fox fell like the terminator for this, i mean sure some smile, and drama there, but didn't feel right.

Now the downside of this film was on the dialog that seem so long that remind me of the same when i went to see the Star Wars : Attack of the Clones. with more talking n less action. They should have a least have cut ten some scene, cause really that's why soap opera exist, to exhaust us of boredom.

Bu t lets get to scream of the movie the visual, their no denial the hit it good, under the supervision of Oscar winner John Gaeta, the film change a new style of racing, with the turning of the drift driven, to tracks that look like skate ramps, to some 360's too. By far this is carskating, with so much psichodelic from part of the color n lights, some wonder this is racing or another Britney night out clubs. Their some confusing when it come to the crushing cause you don't no if is mountain on fire or is just a car. And the demolition man foaming safety belts are new touch.

The environment is not all cg, when it come to the interior of the houses n hotels, but fell right for base on a cartoon movie. But there one scene that make ya wonder if ya seen the 2001 space odyssey.

So the movie is gonna bump iron man for the weekend, take no. but hey i could be wrong. The movie is a visual delight, with so much effect that you don't know if ye have a game controller in your hand, but they really have tone down on the dramatic part. and hey the brotyers already gave us a peek to their next project that i heard is gonna have ninja.

Next stop prince caspian.

i think i should be polishing iron man metal

The robot films are starting to ignited from the first fembot in Metropolis, to the 80's classics Terminator to Robocop, and last year Transformers.
O f course iron man ain't one, than i don't care while it wear and armor and make thing go boom. Than that's hardcore robot:

Tony Stark(Robert Downey Jr) is a innovator, inventor, have achieve so much over he life( also egotistical, gambler, and playboy) running he father
company with Obadiah Stane(Jeff Bridges). building and showing their latest weapons to the world. But a trip to Afghanistan change that, when the convoy is attack by a group of terrorist name the 10 rings, capture, he is force to build missiles. Seen how this militia got of hold of he's weapons. he decide to build and armor, aid of Yinsen(Shoun Toub), they build something, that can only be describe as walking fortrees. When the day come to make the escape, Yinsen sacrifice, from where Tony discover the value of a life, rescue by the army, he decide to shut down all weapon productions, that upset some people, including Obadiah. Obsesive for what he build, he try to make a new one, but giving it and upgrade. Someone found the plans that Stark build. While back he test everything from the stabilizer to the thrust of he new armor. But later discovering that the company weapons are been used by same people that capture him. Is time to turn the armor for what is build to do. Destroy everything, don't ask question.

Robert Downey give a very charismatic, and very fun dialog, that really define him better for this kind of picture. Jeff Bridges performance wasn't that evil. Now here's some comic fact for ya, Gwyneth Paltrow Character Pepper Pots is more sensual, but here she play it very damsel in distress kind.

Now the visual are the best of the picture, from the flying, to the first battle scene, where show ya, never shoot to a full metal helmet, that define a one man army, there some funny moment come when is testing time, that actually there not that cliche, this could very be, a very very very action film(just with some tech in it). But that couldn't be made more fun with out the direction of Jon Favreau.

By far this is good superhero movie that anyone could enjoy, but it saddens me that i didn't put it on my most watch for this summer, to i regret it well yeah. Jon Favreau hasn't fail on any of he movies by giving it that sarcast comedy that have, with Iron Man is he move to the action genre that got it right, this very well be true version that was missing for spider-man3. And nice touch putting "the man" as a player. You go Stan. best performance.

It will shoot, fly, and blast ya. This film is the first of the marvel studio, and something tell they ain't stopping there. there's more to come. But until the Hulk starts destroying theaters, we be full for this one.
