Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium - G This could have been a great movie. They could have gone wild with all the wonderful stuff that's inside the shop, a bit like they play with the Hogwarts school in the Harry Potter movies.

But they don't. Dustin Hoffman goes around smiling all the movie, and Natalie Portman just looks cute (ok, very cute).

Apart from this the kids were bored, the story is to complicated and it's too long.

Jackie Brown - R Tarantino is usually associated with violent scenes and strong visual movies. What he also does very good is to create superb scripts. Almost any scene in this movie has interesting dialog, and it's a joy to watch.

Pam Grier looks stunning, it's wonderful to watch De Niro playing a lowlife idiot, Samuel Jackson is THE king and the rest of the cast makes this a very good movie.

Kung Fu Panda - PG I wasn't expecting much when taking the kids to see this, as most Norwegian papers said it was so-so.

But it was funny! The visuals were great, the jokes are funny and the kids loved it. And how can you not laugh when the fat panda falls down the stairs or chrashes through the wall? Hilarious.

Behind Enemy Lines II: Axis of Evil - R Ok, this is THE most horrible sequel ever made. For the first time in my life, I seriously considered ejecting the movie half way through.

Evrything is bad: It presents itself as some kind of documentary based on true events, the editing is trying to be very MTVish but fails by being just bad bad bad. The Korean soldiers are protrayed as complete idiots and the actors are horrible.

Stay away.

Elektra - PG-13 Well, "Daredevil" was actually better. Jennifer Garner is of course good looking and the visuals are hig class. But again when superheros go to the movies: It's boring because you don't feel for them. Elektra's traumatic story from her childhood is totally overtold, with horror movie flashbacks with loud sound effects and jump shots. The bad guys are superstrong until they suddenly get killed.

Again: See "Batman begins". Much better movie.

Next - PG-13 Not Nicolas Cage's best performance. Ok action, but not much more. See "Deja Vu" instead. July 5, 2008  
N/A
Deja Vu - PG-13 Great production, excellent actors. Like the music, the photography and the editing. The story is interesting and I like the way they make me think I have figured it out all the time. July 5, 2008  
N/A
Daredevil - PG-13 Ok movie to watch on a lazy night. Coin Farrell as Bullseye is creepy, Michael Clarke Duncan huge as always. Better choice for superhero-night at home: "Batman begins". July 5, 2008

Ocean's Thirteen - PG-13 Disappointing. A-list of actors that doesn't engage me. Slick but a bit boring. Nice editing and production design, cool music. July 4, 2008

Batman Begins - PG-13 Surprisingy cool! Best Batman so far. Loved the first 30 minutes. Great actors and the story is built up with care. July 4, 2008

Criminal - R Low key, and funny. Smart set-up and when the going gets tough, the criminals are under pressure. I liked it! March 25, 2008  
N/A
Poseidon - PG-13 Hang on to your seat! In our "disaster-movies-week", this is a great movie in the genre. Not a movie that changes your view on mankind or make you a better person. But packed with action and tight situations. Lots of "hero"-moments and "puh!"-moments. March 25, 2008  
N/A
Children of Men - R So far the best movie seen in 2007. Amazing photography and sets, excellent actors and a gripping story. A must see. March 25, 2008
