Post a comment

The Last Mimzy is a quirky, and offbeat family film, filled with laughs and a message(sigh).This movie follows two kids who get toys from the future, so they can help save the future from it's self .This movie brings up the issue of dna modification and pollution.

I give this movie a 7.4 and recommend it to everyone.

Knocked Up

Knocked up is another Judd Apatow comedy from this summer. Released before superbad and making over 100 million this is a movie worth seeing, but not as funny as superbad in my opinon.

In this movie we meet ben(seth rogan) who runs a internet porn site, and allison(Katherine Heigl) a rising star on the E channel. This unlikely pair has a one night stand only to find 8 week later that allison is pregnent.

This movie is mostly character driven and full of witty banter I give it a 8.0 out of 10 and reccomend it to anyone over 14.

In this new comedy Jamie Kennedy plays a break-dancer who has been in a coma for 20 years. He wakes up and gets his break dance team to compete in a dance competition.

I didn't expect a lot from this movie when i sat down to watch it, maybe just some cheap laughs. This is a good movie to watch with some friends. This defiantly wouldn't classify as a great movie but if there's nothing else you could watch this.

I give this movie a 5.5 out of 10 and recommend it to anyone over 10.

OldboyWP

Oldboy, is the story of Oh Dae-su a man who we meet drunk in the police station on his daughter's birthday, when he is bailed out by his friend, he disappears. He then wakes up in a shabby room where he is held captive for 15 years. He is then released without knowing who or why he was imprisoned.

This is a movie I've been trying to watch for a long time now, and after watching it i can see what all the hype is about. This movie was so fresh and captivating that time seemed to fly bye while I was watching it. The twists and turns in this movie are deliverd with such delicacy and precision, the director must be a surgeon. Combine that with oscar worthy performance from Choi Min-sik as Oh Dae-su and you have one of my new favorite movies.

I give this movie a 9.3 out of 10 and recommend it to anyone over 16.

Harrypotterorderofthephoenix

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix the fifth installment in the Harry potter seris starts the seris down the darker path that the late books follow. In this movie all our favorite characters are back and they have to face the fact that no one believes lord voldermort is back, while a new tryant of a teacher from the ministry dolores umbridge is taking control of hogwarts. If that isn't enough it's time for the owls (which are exams that decide the rest of your life)and harry has to deal with constant visions of voldermort throughout the day. I'm a little prejudiced when it comes to harry potter but this a great movie even if your not a potter fan easily the best movie so far.

I give this movie a 8.4 out of 10 and reccomend it to anybody over 9.

300-1sht

300 is a movie you've heard of if you haven't been living under a rock. Zach Snyder's epic movie based on Frank miller's graphic novel about the battle of Thermopylae. This movie shows a somewhat realistic version of this battle between the 300 Spartans and the Persians with extreme detail and stylized shooting of the battles.

I give this movie a 8.1 out of 10 and reccomend it to anyone over 15.

The simpsons movie is America's favorite family's first full length feature film, and probley not the last. In this much acticapated debut of the simpsons on the big screen, springfield is threatned of being wiped off the map after lake springfield becomes extremely polluted. This movie is full of laughs and inside jokes for fans of the show. You can expect to see majority of the characters from the show.

I give this movie a 8.1 out of 10 and reccomend it for everyone.

Vacancy well worth a watch.

Vacancy(1)

Vacancy. Just released on dvd stars Luke Wilson and Kate beckinsale as a couple having marridal problems who find themselves as the next stars/murders in a snuff film. The suspense in this movie is enough to keep your attention and have you covering your eyes with the nearest pillow.The actors carry the story well as you would expect, but towards the end this movie loses some of it's edge. This movie was still quite good despite the cliche ending and well worth the watch

I give this movie a 7.0 out of 10 and recommend it to anybody over 12 looking for a good suspense movie.
