Green Zone

01 Jun

This is an interesting war film set in Iraq after the Oscar winning ‘Hurt Locker’ but it is not a disappointment, it entertains and retains interest throughout.

Clearly not based on true events but Paul Greengrass positively sets out to tell us that we were all misled by the propaganda of Iraq having weapons of nuclear disarmament, not so it seems!

Yes, good link up between Greengrass and Matt Damon with clear links to the Bourne series.

Damon himself has been a busy boy lately what with Invictus and The Informant.

So many Iraq war films have now been made that the subject matter is rapidly becoming less than interesting. this is likely to be classified as just another Iraq war film and quite easily forgotten.

Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum, United 93) re-team for their latest electrifying thriller in Green Zone.

Set in the chaotic early days of the Iraqi War where no one could be trusted and every decision could detonate unforeseen consequences.

During the U.S.-led occupation of Baghdad in 2003, Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller (Damon) and his team of Army inspectors were dispatched to find weapons of mass destruction believed to be stockpiled in the Iraqi desert.

Rocketing from one booby-trapped and treacherous site to the next, the men search for deadly chemical agents but stumble instead upon an elaborate cover-up that inverts the purpose of their mission.

From Paris With Love

31 May

This film was seriously awesome and very entertaining.

After watching this movie and almost every other one that Luke Besson has been a part of we can honestly say that Besson and Company are one of our favs when it comes to those who Create Action movies.

They simply know what they are doing (From Leon the Professional to the 5th Element) and we appreciate them continuing to push the envelope in keeping the “Action Movie” bar nice and high.

The first half starts out the same way hundred of other movies do, but the 2nd half goes in a different direction which we’ve also seen before but it doesn’t go toward the way we think it would.

Anyway, we don’t want to give anything else away…

A personal aide to the U.S. Ambassador in France, James Reese (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) has an enviable life in Paris and a beautiful French girlfriend, but his real passion is his side job as a low-level operative for the CIA.

All James wants is to become a bona fide agent and see some real action.

So when he’s offered his first senior-level assignment, he can’t believe his good luck – until he meets his new partner, special agent Charlie Wax (John Travolta).

have fun! ;) magic

My Fake Fiance

30 May

My Fake FianceWe’ve all seen this plot before, the girl gets a guy to pretend to be her boyfriend and eventually falls for him.

But the way this movie portrays it is both refreshing and entertaining.

There are no dull moments, with smart humour and just enough chick-flick romance to keep fans of those interested but not so much that everyone else gets tired.

Hart and Lawrence are a hilarious duo; their characters are so much alike in their cynical sense of humour that they keep the scenes moving with witty dialogue.

We will admit, the guys which Vince owes money to aren’t tough enough to be really believable, but then again real gangsters would be slightly disturbing in a light-hearted movie like this.

Great watch, too bad it was a made-for-TV, it’s much better than many on the big screen.

A sham marriage leads to genuine romance for a woman who lost everything, and a guy who’s in debt to a vicious loan shark.

Her moving van stolen, Jennifer (Melissa Joan Hart) is left with nothing but three throw pillows and a cardboard box.

Meanwhile, thirty-something charmer Vince (Joey Lawrence) has racked up a rather serious gambling debt.

Should he fail to pay up soon, he’s likely to wind up crippled for life.

Having recently met at the wedding of a mutual friend, Jennifer and Vince surmise that the best way to make some quick cash is to take a trip to the alter themselves.

View Trailer

If everything goes as planned, Jennifer will keep the items on the registry, and Vince can avoid becoming a punching bag for a bookie’s thugs.

Then a quickie divorce and everyone is happy; but in order for the plan to work, they’ll have to act like genuine love birds.

Trouble is Vince and Jennifer already bicker like a couple that’s been married for decades.

The closer the wedding gets, however, the more the prospective bride and groom find their fake affections taking on an air of authenticity.

The Book Of Eli

27 May

The Hughes Brothers, directors of From Hell and Menace II Society among others, have created an interesting and thoughtful action movie, that also carries a message of faith and hope.

The action set-pieces are well handled, and the photography of the movie, is very well done.

While the setting itself isn’t particularly new, along similar lines to Mad Max and other movies of this kind, they still get some pretty impressive visuals.

They are also helped by having two of the best actors around in this movie.

Denzel Washington carries the movie easily and is also very convincing in the action sequences.

Gary Oldman as Carnegie gives a performance more in line with some earlier work, such as Leon than some recent performances but he is always worth watching.

The rest of the cast, led by Mila Kunis all give good support.

View Trailer


Eli (Denzel Washington) has been on a journey for 30 years, walking west across America after a cataclysmic war that turned the earth into a total wasteland.

http://i50.tinypic.com/33ur2pi.png

The world has become a lawless civilization where people must kill or be killed.

The barren roads belong to gangs of cutthroats who rob and kill for water, a pair of shoes, a lighter, or just for fun.

Eli is a peaceful man who only acts in self defense, and becomes a warrior with unbelievable killing skills when he is challenged.

Shutter Island

26 May

Shutter Island is a psychological thriller, starring Leonardo De Caprio as Teddy Daniels, that attacks our fears on an entire new level.

The overall dark tone and bleak state of mind we are in builds and builds, never letting go through out the movies entirety.

The film is thrilling, captivating, and most importantly, extremely entertaining.

Some have complained that they are dissatisfied with the ending and saw it coming from miles away.

Yes, you may think you know where it is going, that you anticipated the right turn when in arrived, but no one will be expecting the sudden left turn it makes in the films conclusion.

While Shutter Island was made by a true master of the film trade, one thing you will find unpleasantly delightful, is the director’s ability to genuinely creep you out in several terrifying scenes.

The film doesn’t rely on loud bags in the silence (although a few do occur, and will make you jump) but more on dark imagery and even darker dialogue that never lets up and brings the tension to a painfully disturbing level.

View Trailer

This one will not escape your thoughts so easily.

It’s 1954, and up-and-coming U.S. marshal Teddy Daniels is assigned to investigate the disappearance of a patient from Boston’s Shutter Island Ashecliffe Hospital.

He’s been pushing for an assignment on the island for personal reasons, but before long he wonders whether he hasn’t been brought there as part of a twisted plot by hospital doctors whose radical treatments range from unethical to illegal to downright sinister.

Teddy’s shrewd investigating skills soon provide a promising lead, but the hospital refuses him access to records he suspects would break the case wide open.

As a hurricane cuts off communication with the mainland, more dangerous criminals “escape” in the confusion, and the puzzling, improbable clues multiply, Teddy begins to doubt everything …

Balls Out: Gary the Tennis Coach

21 May

WWhen we first heard that Sean William Scott is in this movie, we thought that this would be like a tennis version of American Pie.

In most of his movies his role is meant to be a jerk, but this movie is different.

He plays “Never-been” tennis player and becomes a coach for the high school tennis team.

This movie contains a lot of one liners and that is what makes it so unique and funny.

But another unique thing about this movie is that it focuses on the small things.

The high school football team had a huge crowd, but the tennis team barely had an applause,  it didn’t even have more than 20 people in the crowd of its finals.

To conclude, we think this movie is quiet funny, but only to a specific audience. :)

View Trailer

Gary Houseman (Seann William Scott) is an overenthusiastic high school janitor who steps-up to lead the school’s loser tennis team to the state finals when the acting coach drops dead.

The brash and often insulting new coach is intent on inspiring these underdogs not only to win, but also to stand-up for themselves.

Although his coaching tactics may be unorthodox, including motivating his star player with a pre-game stripper, his heart is in the right place.

Besides, sometimes it takes big balls to play hard-ball.

nice ;) magic

House Broken

21 May

Here we have this beauty, it’s not popular going by ratings, however it’s not a total let down.

It’s got a really good cast, watch out for the neighbor she is just magic, she has a few tricks up her sleeve.

There is a good variety of characters keeping the film moving, especially when the parents go away; it will make you laugh and also make you think how much you do take your parents for granted or thanked them for putting up with our behavior in younger years! ;)

The film does have a point to put across, some other reviews have said it’s a mindless film with no concrete plot, take a look at it, Danny DeVito is back on the screen and is super in this.

ss

After 25 years with the fire department, Tom Cathcart (Danny DeVito) is determined to enjoy his retirement with his wife (Katey Segal) and will resort to anything, even kidnapping her,  to get his slobbish twenty-something, stay at home sons to move out of the house.

The Morgue

21 May

This is a nice horror flick, has an entertaining storyline, super camera work and photography.

The acting was awesome with nice twists.

The directing of the film was really good, and we always think music helps to set the mood.

If you’re looking for blood and exposed human organs, forget it.

View Trailer

The budget was really low, but they did pull it off and a cracking film.

Trapped between the physical world and the afterlife, between dusk and dawn; six strangers, brought together through a series of unusual events, are an enigma to themselves and go mysteriously unnoticed by others.

In their futile attempt for survival, they latch on to each other at a desolate mortuary in hopes of making it through the night.

There is an astonishing twist in this intense psychological thriller, more is happening at the Morgue than meets the eye. ooohh yeeahh! :)

Crushed aka She’s Crushed

20 May

DVD_COVERFor those who enjoy brutal violence generously delivered by a woman you wouldn’t mind taking to bed yourself (assuming she wouldn’t kill you too) :P then this is a movie for you…

A very well made blood and guts piece in which the director did a thoughtful job of helping us, the audience members, try to understand the murderous impulses of the killer.

In many ways, this movie is more about the cause and affect of violence than the simple blood on the walls shock fest that is so prevalent in today’s horror market.

Although we did appreciate the director, Patrick Johnson, taking the time to elevate this piece or at least attempt to do so, we still can’t help but feel he shied away from an element that seemed completely natural to the story; nudity – there should have been more nudity.

View Trailer

The Highlight is the Gore and Blood but the plot and production isn’t fantastic, it is after all what it says on the tin – an independent movie.

The Crazy female was super at acting and the camera work was very well done, and hopefully we will see Natalie Dickinson in more movies, upon doing research on her, she has got stuff planned, for her fans keep an eye out.

See this movie if you are a fan of Gore Movies or Natalie Dickinson.

She’s Crushed is very very Bloody but its kinda spoilt when Tara get

s in the shower and the blood turns to a shade of orange.

Squeamish people beware because there are scenes of throwing up, toes being cut off etc etc. :D

If they do a sequel to this little gem, I hope they do it in 3D!! ;)

Love can be painful. Very painful.

The intriguing-on-the-outside, twisted-and-tortured-on-the-inside Tara sets her sights on the unassuming guy-next-door Ray.

Their innocent flirting turns into a regretful one night stand which he hopes to put behind him.

Tara has different plans for their relationship.

It becomes horrifically apparent that she refuses to be cast aside and is willing to go to sick extremes to keep her man as people in Ray’s life are met with torturous ends.

Amidst this violently twisted love story unfolds a profound social commentary on love and the effects of violence.

this is the mutts nutts! ;) magic

45 RPM

10 Nov

imgIt’s hard to find a film about younger people that no only has a good cast, but a naturally awkward one.

The stars of this film are neither especially pretty, nor very self-confident.

Nor could they possibly be. Jordan Gavaris plays Parry, a boy who wants nothing more than to escape from his small northern Canadian town.

His friend, Luke (Justine Banszky) wants to get away as well, but for different reasons. She’d be happy just to be anywhere else.

They’ve been each other’s only friends for quite some time, but things change when another girl comes to town.

Debbie (MacKenzie Porter) catches Parry’s eye, perhaps partially because she’s the first girl to much notice him.

At least, the first overtly feminine girl.

But that’s the basic set-up of the film.

We’ll leave the rest for you to discover on your own. ;)

Fifteen year old Parry Tender doesn’t know where to turn.

Small town life is driving him crazy and a precocious girl who looks and acts more like a boy wants to be his girlfriend.

When a fluke atmospheric condition allows a fifty thousand watt Manhattan radio station to pump its infectious rock’n’roll signal into Canada’s far north, winning a radio contest might be Parry’s only way out.

very nice! ;) magic
