A brother another big brother film, but is good.


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.

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.



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



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


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


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.
