Speed Racer

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

I have to say, it seems that those who hated it were obviously not doing their homework beforehand to know that Speed Racer is not supposed to be a thought-provoking film like The Matrix.

It is based on a wonderfully simple cartoon with a simple message for kids.

If anyone knows anything about cult fans, they want films to reflect the original medium as much as possible.

Thus, if you go to a children’s movie based on a child-friendly anime, expect it to be such and not some mind-blowing,challenging film.

Especially these days, we need films like this one to take our minds off the usual violence and such found in so many other so-called family movies.

Take it as it is, a great family flick for ALL ages to simply enjoy.

have fun! ;) magic

Point Break

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007

86fe2.jpgIn what can now safely be regarded as one of the more generation-defining cinematic moments of the nineties.

Point Break serves as not just a credible well-paced action thriller spectacle, but also as a voice for advocates of the adrenalin rush.

The movie’s sleeper popularity at the time would no doubt have helped issue in a new generation of ‘X’ sports for a new generation, as hungry sponsors leapt at a new market.

Johnny Utah (Reeves) is a Special Agent for the FBI.

Utah gets partnered with Angelo Pappas (Gary Busey) an experienced agent who is more than committed to his work.

The two are asked to investigate the number of robberies committed by a group called the Ex-Presidents, who wears masks of Presidents Reagen, Nixon, Carter and Johnson for their robberies.

Pappas has a theory that the Ex-Presidents are a group of surfers, and asks for Utah to go undercover as a surfer.
