eat a burger with cappuccino ten best film of the year

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.

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?

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¡

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.

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.

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.
