Seventh Moon

Ok horror fave from one of the guys who made the bliair witch project.Not overly great but moves along at a steady pace once the action starts.The Ghosts come zombies are scary enough and gives the movie its real scares.The only main problem is the out of control camera work which sometime make the whole thing impossible to watch or knowing whats going on.Apart from that its good enough fave but dont expect to much.

Nine

''Be Italian...Live today as if it may... become... your last.''

Famous film director Guido Contini struggles to find harmony in his professional and personal lives, as he engages in dramatic relationships throughout his life.

Daniel Day-Lewis: Guido Contini

Nine(2009); A grand, illustrious, costume laden extravaganza musical telling the story of arrogant, self-centered movie director Guido Contini, given life by Daniel Day Lewis.
He finds himself struggling to find meaning, purpose, and a script for his latest film endeavor Italia. With only a week left before shooting begins, he desperately searches for answers and inspiration from his wife, his mistress, his muse, and his mother. As his chaotic profession steadily unravels his personal life, Guido must find a balance between creating art and succumbing to its obsessive demands.

It must be put forth, the writers of Nine: Michael Tolkin and the late Anthony Minghella were behind the elaborate screenplay. Arthur Kopit, Maury Yeston (Broadway musical Nine) and Mario Fratti(Broadway musical "Nine" Italian original). Without any of these writers or writers behind the musical the film project Nine surely would of remained only on paper and in the musical arena rather than retold upon the cinematic screen. A further heart felt praise must also go to Anthony Minghella whom sadly is no longer with us yet still manages to touch us with his creative works and screenplays which he subsequently left behind; A mighty bow and deep sign of respect goes out to Minghella; the man behind emotional piece The English Patient(1996).
Writer Anthony Minghella has been nominated twice for other adaptations: The English Patient for which he also won Best Director, and later for The Talented Mr. Ripley(1999).
Nine similarly oozes his stylistic talent for writing and flair for romance. We will miss you.

The cast, the costumes and the songs all are so extensive in Nine it would take a vast amount of time to fit all into an explanatory review. Although I will try my best to mention the relevant and allow you to witness the piece for yourself in all it's glory.
Obviously the story's protagonist comes in the guise of wonderful acting talent Daniel Day Lewis, portraying Italian Maestro director Guido Contini. Nine shows he hasn't lost his edge since Oscar turn out performance There Will Be Blood. His presence on screen and performing talents include a dabbling of dance and singing; conveying acting with entertaining hand in hand. Every scene you can guarantee he will have a cigarette in hand which reminds us this is a master at work doing what it takes to portray a deeply faceted man from the past.
The leading ladies behind the man all perform outstandingly; Kate Hudson (An American Journalist) and Fergie surprise with song renditions and sexual poise. Perhaps Penelope Cruz being the sexiest of all, as the mistreated mistress of Guido; for me having her busty, lucrative costumes. Rivaled by the scarily curvy Fergie whom plays a temptress from Guidos childhood.
Nicole Kidman positively radiant in grandeur tones while Judi Dench adds a royal imprint of suave class elevating the piece into heavenly realms.
Marion Cotiilard as the troubled wife; sparks emotion and flamboyance. She is the casualty of Guido loving his work more than her. He neglects to treat her in a special regard different from any of his future actresses he works with.
The icing and cream on the Italian based musical has to be the dazzling, sparking, romanticized Sophia Loren as Mamma. This Lady retains all her magical charisma; In essence she is a timeless depiction of Italy itself. The woman behind the man; the Goddess behind the spirit of a nation.
Only the second movie musical for Sophia Loren, the first being Man of La Mancha(1972), even though she is a capable singer, as can be heard on many novelty and soundtrack recordings.

The original Broadway musical opened May 9, 1982 at the 46th Street Theater and ran for 729 performances with Raul Julia as Guido. It won five Tony awards, including Best Musical and Best Featured Actress. The latest Broadway production, starring Antonio Banderas as Guido, opened on Apr 10, 2003 at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre and ran for 283 performances. It won two Tonys: Best Revival of a Musical and Best Featured Actress. Banderas unfortunately turned down the chance to reprise his role as Guido in the film version. Fortunately Daniel Day Lewis took up the part.

Overall, Nine is an under-rated whirl of art and life blurring together from Director Rob Marshal. Everything has a urge of energy and flair about it that makes for a great musical, as well as being a film.
The songs A Call From The Vatican, Be Italian, Guido's Song, Take It All were a few as well as being best favourites for me. Emotion, at times humour, and a certain truthfulness is conveyed by every lyric and word. Whether it be sexy Penelope, tempting Fergie, or the tear inducing pixie Marion...Nine is a beautiful swirling fanfare of pleasure and one man's descent into despair as his work takes over his personal affairs.
If you love musicals, costumes, elaborate set-pieces and quality top-notch acting then Nine should be witnessed by you immediately. Breath-taking.

Låt den Rätte Komma In (Let the Right One in)

''You have to invite me in.''

Oskar; a shy bullied boy, finds love and revenge through Eli; a beautiful yet mysterious girl whom turns out to be a vampire.

Kåre Hedebrant: Oskar

Lina Leandersson: Eli

Lat den ratte komma in(2008) or in English Let the Right one in; Lets start by explaining the title of the film (as well as the novel upon which it was based) refers to the Morrissey song Let the Right One Slip In.
Also referring and according to vampire myths; vampires must be invited in before they can enter someone's home (this point is also expertly shown in the film).

Directed by the talented Tomas Alfredson, based upon the book by John Ajvide Lindqvist whom subsequently worked on the screenplay for the film. The material upon which Let the right one in is based was pure gold in terms of imagination; The film adaptation; equally magnificent in it's scope and capture of Vampire lore, at the same time putting a unique spin on the legendary subject matter. The story tells us a unique perspective from a child's eyes and a mysterious girl he becomes entwined with.
Let the right one in is in Swedish; sometimes the subtitles aren't even necessary as the characters use all sorts of methods and gestures that say more than mere words. Anyone whom complains about the subtitles should not watch; it is wasted on you. An unappreciative audience is an insult to this Let the right one in; because it is a magnificent masterpiece which lingers in the memory using clever circumstances and horrific happenings in equal doses. It rivals any horror movie in the span of the last 40 years in terms of effectiveness and creativeness.
Also tackling bullying from schoolmates, parenting skills from estranged parents and the imagination of a boy whom is innocent, graceful and shy.

The cast relatively unknown to me before; effectively portray believability and magnetism especially the two leads: Oskar and Eli. The acting is so real that I actually did not doubt for a second their growing love and chemistry throughout the story.
Another memorable character Yvonne played by Karin Bergquist turns out a surprising role as one whom becomes infected by the vampiric gene. Imaginative scenes including her falling down a stairs with cats covering her body or her burning in intense flames as a blind is opened in a Hospital defies belief yet captivates and enthralls at the same instant. Hats off for such clever techniques and acting.

Though the film takes place on location at Blackeberg, a suburb of Stockholm, the film principal photography was shot in Lulea in the north of Sweden; to ensure enough snow and cold weather.
Up to several tricks were used to create the right sound effects for a few gorier scenes used. Biting into sausages replicates the sound of biting into skin and flesh, drinking types of yogurt also were used to sound like drinking blood. The sound of the children blinking was made by the skin of a grape rubbing against each other in an almost blinking motion.
Also rightly voted movie of the year by Empire magazine, whom are sometimes compromised in terms of opinions and reviews(Surprisingly the first time a foreign language film topped their list since the mind blowing Cidade de Deus(2002) in 2003).

Overall, Let the Right one in is a visual, imaginative treat. A horror of renowned highness, a bloody tour de force and certainly one to be watched by any film appreciator.
Guillermo Del Toro director of the fantastical, realistic Pan's Labyrinth; said in his words of Let the right one in, '' As delicate, haunting and a poetic a film as you're ever bound to see''. That only barely begins to sum up the majestic, awesome quality this blood sucker piece is. This IS is the vampire movie of the decade, the swan song and testament to an old legend. It certainly beats Twilight on all counts having more romance, creativity, respect for Vampire lore and horror in Let the right one in's little finger alone.
Just do not pass up this opportunity, as the title suggests: Let the right one in. If you don't you will be the one missing out and that certainly sucks. A bloody dreamed up masterpiece adaptation.

''Are you a vampire?''

Sherlock Holmes

The update of the good old detective's adventures is as entertaining and fun as hoped, mostly thanks to the great chemistry between Downey Jr. and Law in the leading roles and the nice little details of Holmes observing, concluding, explaining, of which there are plenty throughout the film. These are also the scenes in which Guy Ritchie trademarks are coming through, although it is his first film not playing in the present tense. The result may not be flawless, it took me a while to get into it and the soundtrack was not entirely to my linking, but once it's flowing it is a fun experience with an excellent set design, setting the right mood for the adventure that may not be as far off from the literary original as feared by purists. The action is well timed and fun and still there is plenty of nicely detailed detective work, as there should be in a Sherlock Holmes story. Easily Ritchie's best film since Snatch and just all around enjoyable.

For once, I have absolutely nothing to bitch about. I loved this movie from start to finish once my eyes got used to those damn 3-D glasses. Although the story line takes liberties from about 10 different sci-fi novels, it flowed well and worked seemlessly with the CGI or special effects. This will be an academy award winner for that alone.

This is one of those movies you absolutely have to see

Monsters vs. Aliens

i couldnt stop laughing bob was by far the funniest and the missing link talking about al gore. Stephen Colbert playing the pres is funny espically whrn he started playing the keyboard its a good film for the famliy

Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story

Up

Pixar presents UP! A very touching, youthful and sugar coated animated movie, filled with joy and morals. Up main character's; Carl - an old man who lost his wife, and lost his hope in life; simply become one of my fav. character in animated movies. The character development is outstanding! And of course, Russell; fat little kid who embarks journey with him. The movie starts out simple and interesting, but after 40 minutes it kinda slow down, especially with the vilain a.k.a Bad guys which is not very pleasing i changed my mind about this movie. But here where i was wrong, when the movie ends it again gives me a big smile on my face; cause I enjoyed it.

Just want to put it out there; i still think Wall - E is superior in many ways. but two thumbs up to Pixar guys to come up with enchanting tale and memorable movie, oh great background music too!

8/10.

Harry Brown

Great performance from Mr Caine shows hes still a A class performer.This is a very dark and nasty movie.The movie is set very realistly and never backs away from the violents.I was worrys before watching it that it would be another death wish and in many ways it is because of the story but with micheal caine it never get close and never become being stupid or insane.
Not a easy watch and pleasent one but it is a great movie and worth a watch,

Eyes Wide Shut

Ok. So, let's take the tagline of the movie: Cruise. Kidman. Kubrik The first two of them were absolutely stunning, maybe too perfect for this exceptional movie. They made a wonderful pair and we could have seen the chemistry there.

As for Kubrik, I'm not so thrilled about his part in this movie. He tried to make a romantic movie but he couldn't stand and brought something from his weirdness in it too. Personally, I think he ruined the good parts of the movie with that charade, and that he is an overrated director. :)

The International

i had to watch this movie a few times and too say good acting dumb story cool gun fight in the rotunda but i kept dozing off

Rendez-vous

I love this film. It is a dark and very powerful examination of love and sexual desire (very sensitive theme for some human minds) from the point of view of three emotionally scarred young people. The film is a lyrical and poetic exploration of love and loss, reality and fantasy. It is beautiful sexy and I can say an art-film. It won several prestigious international awards and is critically acclaimed. Juliette Binoche (very young and very beautiful at her first steps as an actress) is completely uninhibited and gives a great, brave and fearless performance. She bares herself completely...both emotionally and physically. For one more I say, this film is not intended for the immature. Those with childish minds who cannot handle looking at a beautiful woman's body (such as feminists or other philistines) are advised too avoid this film because of its theme. Nina (Juliette Binoche) moves to Paris and she becomes the love interest of three very different men and has concurrent relationships with each. Multiple plot and character lines develop from this. This movie will challenge you and you'll think of it days later.

Major League

so funny everyone is so cool great cast and acting one of the best baseball movies
