Fast & Furious (2009)
Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez
Dom Toretto is a refugee and returns to avenge the murder of his girlfriend. He will work with Brian O’ Connor who is an FBI agent to bring down a drug baron. For that purpose they will do what they do best, drive unsafely fast and brake few rules.
This is the fourth of the movie series. The problems with that is that usually when the first movie is 100%, the second is 50%, the third is 25% and so on. Here, the first was a great movie, the second was rubbish, the third was entertaining with an annoying protagonist and the fourth is as good as the first. In the film industry everything is possible.
Michelle Rodriguez is advertised like she has a really big part, but she dies the first 10 minutes. It was surprisingly funny.
Other than that there was a lot of action, a lot of adrenalin, a lot of beautiful women and a lot of nice cars.
The City (2008)
Whitney Port, Jay Lyon, Erin Lucas, Adam Senn, Olivia Palermo, Samantha Swetra
This is one TV-Series that is supposed to be a reality or something and shouldn’t exist in the first place. If those stories are true then I feel sorry about these people, because their lives are so boring that I am sure they will become drug addicts if they do not kill themselves from boredom.
Firstly, the only thing they do besides their work is having coffee and chat or having dinner and chat.
Second, what they are chatting about is irrelevant, because they seem to repeat over and over again “OK!” and “Oh, Great!” and “Fine!”
Third, Whitney Port is having a relationship with a guy, but he is not really her boyfriend and she is “tasting” other guys too. So when she tells him that she had dinner with someone she didn’t know he became the prime male and proposed her to become boyfriend and girlfriend.
And last but not least, we know how lame your conversations are, but do not let everybody know that your guy might be cheating on you. It doesn’t look good especially for you. This is where “Everything is great and fine” should be used to. Plus, nobody really cares.
Ain’t that boring? Do something else. Like, the collage of yours can stub you in the back and make you look incompetent at work and then you can have a girl fight and pull each others hair. You can go for a hike and get lost in the woods and have to survive eating worms for a weekend. Of course one of you has to break a leg. And even better, have a car accident and leave the man behind so that he can come and avenge you slowly, but painfully. Damn, I am so good.

And here is the parody of the hills. So fun!
Scooby-Doo and the Samurai Sword (2009)
Casey Kasem, Frank Welker, Mindy Cohn, Grey DeLisle, Kelly Hu, Kevin Michael Richardson, Sab Shimono, George Takei, Gedde Watanabe, Keone Young, Brian Cox
The team visits Japan when Daphne participates in a fighting championship. There they find themselves against the mystery of the Black Samurai who seeks to return to life and take revenge. They will travel in various places in order to solve it and as always they succeed.
The story of Scooby Doo and his friends is the same over and over again, yet I cannot stop liking it. It is like watching something new and the fun is all the same.
Coraline (2009)
Dakota Fanning, Teri Hatcher, Jennifer Saunders, Dawn French, Keith David, Ian McShane
A girl who feels neglected by her parents finds a secret door that leads to a world similar to the real one, only there everything is perfect. Soon she will realize that this world hides a terrible secret and she will have to find a way to get away to save herself and her family.
I watched this movie with 3D glasses, supposed to enhance the movie, but who needs 3D glasses for such an excellent movie. I cannot think of anything negative to say.
I was so sad when it was over.
I have a small video of how the movie was made after the trailer and you really have to see it to realize how talented the people who have worked in this movie are.
Knowing (2009)
Nicolas Cage, Rose Byrne, Chandler Canterbury, Lara Robinson
In 1959 the children of an elementary school decide to paint what they think the future will be. They put the paintings in a capsule that they bury in order to reopen it in 50 years. In2009 they open it and one of them contains not a picture, but a sequence of numbers that fall in the hands of the only person who can understand them and realizes that they predict catastrophes that date till the end of the world.
How can such an excellent idea for a  movie can become such a lousy movie. You are sitting comfortably in you cinema chair and suddenly you cannot believe your eyes and your ears. Are you supposed to laugh or get angry for your lost money and time? And when you think that things cannot get worse they really do. And then they get even worse. And then even worse. And guess what! They get far more worse.
Easy Virtue (2008)
Jessica Biel, Ben Barnes, Kristin Scott Thomas, Colin Firth
A glamorous American woman marries a younger than her rich Englishman and they go to meet his bad in cloth-taste family. They will make her life difficult, but she will fight back.
Things are not as tragic that it may seem. It is not a cry movie and there are some comedy moments, like when Jessica Biel kills a chihuahua with her firm butt. But when people will begin to describe their issues in life the movie becomes serious. Fortunately the film does not give you a reason to feel depressed so that makes it quite entertaining.
The Day The Earth Stood Still (2008)
Keanu Reeves, Jennifer Connelly, Kathy Bates, Jaden Smith, John Cleese, Jon Hamm, Robert Knepper
The remake of the 1951 classic film. Strange spheres come out of nowhere and then once again at the US soil a strange robot and an alien appear to informs us that we are doomed, because we are bad and disrespectful of the nature. A scientist who happens to be there is determined to change his mind. So far we are still here so I guess she made it.
That was boring. I don’t know why. Perhaps there are too many films about our doom that we do not care anymore.
I kinda feel that Keanu Reeves has only one expression the past 10 years or his acting career or his face has no muscles at all. I really liked Jaden Smith who apparently got both his parents genes.
The Gene Generation (2007)
Ling Bai, Faye Dunaway, Alec Newman, Robert David Hall
In the future DNA is the new weapon. The DNA hackers can hack in other peoples DNA and kill them. Here comes Michell, a hired assassin who has the important job to wipe them out. Other than that she has a loser brother who always gets in trouble and she tries to save him, she likes that guy next door and dreams of having a quiet life in the countryside.
I have to admit that I believed that the movie was going to be really crap. But I was wrong. It has an interesting story, but obviously the money were short so it was as good as it could get.
I also have to admit that I thought the worst for Bai Ling, because when her name was on the table I had some “accidental” wardrobe malfunctions on my mind. The Greeks say “Better lose your eye than your name”.
And here comes the awful truth. I didn’t see the whole movie. I know I’m bad. I was trying to see it, but there was always something more interesting to do than watch it, and the way the plot was unraveled it seemed like forever. So even though the movie is quite violent and dark and Michelle kicks ass I decided that killing boars in World Of Warcraft was more exciting.
Dragonquest (2009)
A young hero will arise to save the world… again.
What a movie. Such fresh ideas that we’ve never seen before.
A young man who happens to be the chosen one finds the truth, but he really is not ready for such a quest, because nobody wanted to tell him the truth and prepare him. Then he will have to complete a series of quests in order to find some jewels that will complete a pendant that has the power to awaken a dragon that can defeat a dead guy. This is a one man job, because everybody expects him to do the whole thing while the rest sits and waits.
These quests are not that difficult. I can be the chosen one. Everyone can break out of a prison with one guard. Everyone has given a penny to a poor guy. Everyone will freeze at the site of a huge spider. And the hero did not go to the bathtub with that girl, because we all know that a hero never has sex before marriage. Yes, he will defeat the bad guy with his virtue. Hail, to the virgins of the world for they hold our salvation.
The actrors performances are so breathtaking that I can only compare to a porn movie star before the sex scene and the battles are so epic that I can only compare to Worf’s agility in Star Trek.
Watch at you own risk.
Cannot even find a trailer for this one. Cannot find a good poster. It seems the producers didn’t even bother.
Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009)
Isla Fisher, Hugh Dancy, Joan Cusack, John Goodman, John Lithgow, Kristin Scott Thomas
Long Story Short: A beautiful young woman suffering form a compulsive shopping disorder with a huge dept finds a new job and love. That pretty much is the whole story from beginning to the end. Not that I spoil anything here, but everyone can figure out the end. Its the same story every single time when it comes to romantic comedies.
Analysis: A beautiful young woman is hired by a guy, because he likes her ideas, but we all know he is sexually attracted to her. She appears at the job interview telling all the wrong stuff a person shouldn’t say, but the other candidates where guys and a woman in a suit. Then, the first day at the office he realizes she is completely clueless, but instead of firing her he takes her to a party with business associates and future customers and she says all the stupid things a person can say. but since it is movie everybody loves her. In the real world nobody likes to be criticized or slapped. What happens next is a sh…ty situation when she loses everything, but since we said again this is a movie everything works fine in the end.
You might say that I said the whole movie, but I’m trying to save you 90 minutes of your lives. You really don’ t want to see a woman screaming and being stupid and trying to persuade you that she became a shopaholic, because she has issues when the other girls had shinier shoes and clothes when she was a child. This called jealousy that leads to materialism.
Watchmen (2009)
Malin Akerman, Malin Akerman, Matthew Goode, Jackie Earle Haley, Jackie Earle Haley, Patrick Wilson, Carla Gugino
The time is 1985 and people are afraid of a nuclear holocaust. The superheroes are banned from their duties at these difficult times, but the death of one of their own reunites them in pursuit of the awful truth.
The movie almost 3 hours long and the problem with that is that at some point you have to visit the… washroom.Besides this I do not see any other problem with the movie. The time past so fast that I didn’t realize it.
I had an excellent time during this movie. The superheroes are just ordinary people with super-karate skills, super-strength and a super-imaginative costume and gadget designer. They are not about saving the world, because mama likes it that way. It is about having a good time while saving the world. They smoke, they swear, they hate and they are having sex. The exception is Dr. Manhattan who does not have feelings anymore so he saves the world because he remembers it is a good thing.
The cast is almost people I almost never heard before with the exception of Carla Gugino who I always find juicy beautiful, but they fit like glove in their parts.
There is nudity to the point that some will find it very informative - Yeah, Dr. Manhattan is the new sex symbol - so I would recommend parents not to allow their children to watch it until the age of 18. Of course they already know about that stuff and there is nothing you can do, but whatever.
The Girls Of Hedsor Hall (2009)
Another reality that caught my attention.
12 American girls have locked themselves in Hedsor Hall in hope of winning a price of 100 thousand dollars. In order to do that they have to endure a transformation from ill mannered to high society aristocrats mannered.
The first impression is that those girls want to change their lives and learn how to behave without look ridiculous or bitchy. I wonder how does learning how to hold a fork and knife is going to change your life? How does eating a pork’s tongue is going to make you a better person?
The second impression was their instructors. Those girls are called losers from day one, but of course in “kinder” words. They make them wear school uniforms, not to wear make-up and they are not allowed to speak their minds. If they dare to form an opinion that does not fit the ears and the brains of their instructors they are marked for the chopping block.  Specifically the headmistress with the upside smile and the slooooooooow speach needs some awakening slaps. “Whaaaat I heeeeeear is prepooosterous. I cannnn’t beliiiiieve you diiiiiiid somethiiing like thaaaat!”
What she calls preposterous is what I call a reality. I don’t know if you grew up in silk sheets wearing cashmere pumpers locked inside those stone walls, but those girls are not losers. They are everyday people with addictions and survival problems that you do nothing about that. You call it a negative attitude towards life and concealing it for being acceptable from well mannered logs is not going to solve the problem.
Iiii thiiink thiiis reaaality shooow iiis prepoooooooooooosterous.
P.S. There is a contestant called Brianna Frost who is going to make a huge career in the porn industry after this show. She made sure there are some hot videos of her before she becomes the horny in a school girl uniform. Mark my words!
Mama’s Boys (2008)
Three mama’ s boys have to choose from thirty women packed in a huge estate.
It is a difficult job for the boys since all the women are so beautiful, but the mamas know best. It is only a handful of them that they approve and they have to make their best to have the last word on their boys.
The highlight of the show is Jojo’s mom (the one in the far left) who says she doesn’t like black girls, asian girls, fat girls, non catholic girls, from divorced family girls, wearing too much make-up girls and she likes girls that they are submissive to her will. She didn’t mention if she wants virgins named Maria so things cannot be that bad. After all she asked with humility to understand her logic. ( I think not!) Poor Jojo after that show girls will be changing direction when they see him.
I do not feel that a reality is the best place to meet the person you will live the rest of your life with, but of course you never know.
Seven Pounds (2008)
Will Smith, Rosario Dawson, Woody Harrelson, Michael Ealy, Barry Pepper
A man who was responsible of a fatal car accident seeks redemption by saving the lives of seven people.
Totally predictable. You know the obvious from the first ten minutes of the movie. The story is 5 minutes of each person in distress which is a total of 30 minutes of the movie and the rest is the fresh blossomed love story of Will Smith and Rosario Dawson who suffers from a heart condition. Ok, if I say more you will get the end if you haven’t figured it out yet.
The way the story ends is quite impressive, but totally stupid. Perhaps this is why it is impressive.
