Inception

13 Aug

Inception was filmed amazingly.

If Christopher Nolan doesn’t get Oscar nominations for his performance as a writer and/or as a director, we will be shocked.

The mere size of some of the effects is breathtaking.

However, Nolan keeps it down to earth with a very good cast and great storyline, as a film of this size has the potential of becoming a CGI-driven mess.

Nolan manages to avoid this completely, creating an almost perfect story which draws you in, and really leaves you thinking about the characters and the events which just transpired on-screen.

Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable.

Cobb’s rare ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him everything he has ever loved.

Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption.

One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the impossible-inception.

Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an idea but to plant one.

screen

If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime.

But no amount of careful planning or expertise can prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every move.

An enemy that only Cobb could have seen coming.

Salt

07 Aug

This turned out to be one of those over-the-top but real decent thrill-ride type actioners.

Though there are those out there who just won’t cut Angelina Jolie a break, even the haters can’t deny that the girl can act.

She’s excellent in this film, about one of the CIA’s top interrogators who’s accused of being a Russian sleeper agent.

It’s fairly early in the film when the action begins and it runs and runs from there on.

There’s a good twist to plot much later on and we like movies that let you try to figure them out as they go along, rather than force feeding you the answers with dumbed down dialog and screechy music because the writers assume the audience is too stupid to get the obvious story movements.

This one doesn’t do that. :)

If you’re not a fan of crazy stunt sequences that no one (in reality) would come out of without broken bones, much less survive, then maybe you won’t enjoy this flick too much.

Otherwise, see it, it’s a blast, it’s got a good cast with Liev Schreiber (always excellent) and Chiwetel Ejiofor (ditto), and the storyline rips right along.

Check it out Today!.

As a CIA officer, Evelyn Salt swore an oath to duty, honor and country.

Her loyalty will be tested when a defector accuses her of being a Russian spy.

Salt goes on the run, using all her skills and years of experience as a covert operative to elude capture.

Salt’s efforts to prove her innocence only serve to cast doubt on her motives, as the hunt to uncover the truth behind her identity continues and the question remains: “Who is Salt?”

It’s also been dubbed as “The Bourne Salt-imatum” you heard it first here at et – the place to be.

James Cameron returns and shows these wannabe rookie directors of recent times how it’s done.

Finally a good “old school” film that is worth remembering.

Last year was one of the weakest years in film-making that we can think of, even when extremely low quality films like Transformers 2, New Moon, and Wolverine are some of the biggest hits of the year, you know something is wrong.

Leave it up to Cameron to save the day with this fresh and unique cinematic experience. :P

The CGI makes the world of Pandora come alive, with lots of breathtaking scenery in the film.

The actors were good in their roles with Sam Worthington as Sully is effective in the leading role, we especially liked Stephen Lang in the role of Quaritch.

Thankfully the many millions of dollars spent on making Avatar were spent wisely – it is so much better than, hmm let’s say, Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen.

Overall Avatar is a good and entertaining science fiction epic. We recommend it. :)

Please excuse the trailer, it’s all that was available.

View Trailer

When Jake’s brother is killed in a robbery, he decides to take his place in a mission on the distant world of Pandora.

There Jake learns of greedy corporate figurehead Parker Selfridge’s intentions of driving off the native humanoid “Na’vi” in order to mine for the precious material scattered throughout their rich woodland.

In exchange for the spinal surgery that will fix his legs, Jake gathers intel for the cooperating military unit spearheaded by gung-ho Colonel Quaritch, while attempting to infiltrate the Na’vi people with the use of an “avatar” identity.

While Jake begins to bond with the native tribe and quickly falls in love with the beautiful alien Neytiri, the restless Colonel moves forward with his ruthless extermination tactics, forcing the soldier to take a stand – and fight back in an epic battle for the fate of Pandora.

this is your popcorn hour ;) magic

Return to House on Haunted Hill

20 May

There are true horror movies, that make us laugh, there are horror comedies, that are too scary to be funny, but luckily, there are some enjoyable movies and this Return to House on Haunted Hill is super.

We have seen the original, and this movie is far better than a lot of todays remakes.. yeah, its a sequel, but the storyline is so moving, as usual, good guys, bad guys and bad guys pretending to be good guys.

The actors made their part in this film, they looked so realistic and scared, also it was fun – you will like the bad guy who thinks he’s a young John Travolta look-a-like. :P

Despite low budget of this movie, music, special effects and make-up was great – surprisingly.

After giving all these pluses we have to add – this movie is worth taking a look, maybe youngsters should not watch it as they are probably going to have nightmares, so might the adults! :)

It all started started when five people agreed to spend one night in an old abandoned haunted house . . .

What began as an evening of fun a harmless scares in exchange for one million dollars to anyone who stayed the night and survived soon turned into a night of terror.

View Trailer

Years later, several more people risk their lives in search of a cursed statue of Baphomet, a relic worth millions that will come at the cost of their souls.

Now, the terror begins when the doomed Return to House on Haunted Hill.

enjoy! ;) magic

2012

23 Jan

This is pure entertainment PERIOD.

Movies like this must be appreciated for what they are, which is a hell of a ride through a fantastic and mesmerizing end of the world, created by the mind of the director that is the best doing what he knows the most: change the surface of the earth with impressive visual effects.

Disaster movie maven Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow) crafts this apocalyptic sci-fi thriller following the prophecy stated by the ancient Mayan calendar, which says that the world will come to an end on December 21, 2012.

When a global cataclysm thrusts the world into chaos, divorced writer and father Jackson Curtis (John Cusack) joins the race to ensure that humankind is not completely wiped out.

enjoy! ;) magic

Funny People

17 Aug

A cross Between Terms Of Endearment and a Dice Clay stand-up act, Funny People is a vanity project taken to pathological and psychotic extremes.

The humour in this movie is also not for everyone.

If you watch it expecting the usual Apatow humour, you’re going to be disappointed.

But when the humour could have been smart and funny, it just relies on sick jokes.

Adam Sandler turned in the best performance of his career, and Seth Rogen made a compatible co-star.

However, with the script being what it was, the movie sort of fell flat when it shouldn’t have.

There is potential in this film, as it could have been a great movie, but that’s it.

George is a very successful stand up comedian who learns that he has an untreatable blood disorder and is given less than a year to live.

Ira is a struggling up-and-coming stand up comedian who works at a deli and has yet to figure out his onstage persona.

Alien Trespass

16 Aug

Unlike contemporary sci-fi monster thrillers, which rely on unreasonably graphic gore and violence, this movie finds its feet in story and pathos.

The characters are memorable, the special effects are sublimely imperfect, even the monster has an endearing quality in its hokeyness.

The film captures the hopes, dreams, angst and fears of the 50s, and evokes not as much nostalgia but perspective.

The film is not satire, for the characters believe in themselves and their peril as seriously as we believe in ours.

Neither is it comedy, despite some truly funny moments.

The actors had a whale of a good time in their roles, although humanity is indeed threatened in Alien Trespass, we see that the essence of humanity extends far beyond our own solar system.

The story begins in 1957 in the star-filled skies above California’s Mojave Desert.

It is a special night for noted astronomer Ted Lewis, who is preparing a special dinner for his beautiful, adoring wife Lana to celebrate their wedding anniversary.

In another part of town, Tammy, a waitress at small local diner with big plans for the future, looks out her window and is excited to see a shooting star, which she takes as a good sign for her dreams.

But, what Dr. Lewis and Tammy assume is a shooting star, is really an alien spaceship……

Polar Express (BRR)

14 Jul

This isn’t the 3-D version, but it looks well neat :D

It is quite an imaginative and innovative achievement–impressive enough to assure its place among future Christmas favorites with unlimited appeal for the young in heart.

The message of Christmas is lightly hinted at but when Tom Hanks as the train conductor tells the little boy, “The true meaning of Christmas is in your heart,” we can be assured that children everywhere will definitely “get it”.

So if you really love christmas, come on and let it snow!

This is the story of a young hero boy on Christmas Eve who boards on a powerful magical train that’s headed to the North Pole and Santa Claus’s home.

What unfolds is an an adventure which follows a doubting boy, who takes an extraordinary train ride to the North Pole; during this ride, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery which shows him that the wonder of life never fades for those who believe.

very nice! ;) magic

Happy Feet

07 Jul

The musical numbers, instead of having a disrupting effect and stopping the flow of the story, actually advance the plot because they’re integral to the story and this particular type of penguin.

Emperor Penguins apparently find their mates by singing.

While it all sounds the same to us, they are highly attuned to each others songs.

The film cleverly translates that idea to the screen by having these animated penguins sing iconic pop/rock songs.

The animation is top notch and the style perfectly suited for the story.

This isn’t the goofy cartoonish animation seen in this past year’s other animal-oriented films.

It’s very rich and leaning heavily towards realism.

The vast icy landscapes seem to be copied straight from documentary footage.

In the cold land of Antarctica, the Emperor Penguins each express their true love with a special heartsong of their own that expresses their very being.

However, the misfit Mumble cannot sing, but instead has an extraordinary talent to tap dance with almost magical energy and expression.

Nevertheless, the deeply conformist leadership of the colony fearfully blames the young penguin’s unorthodox ways for the lean fishing that threatens them all.

nice ;) magic
