Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

This movie's evolved so much from it's predecessors, noticeably. Begins with various flashes including parts of the movie, thrown here and there for confusion but definitely many questions are answered in this one. Characters have clearly grown especially Draco whose performance was surprisingly good, as well as other complications like love, hate, secrets and old hatreds, all these are revealed and answered. Not to mention some serious fights, the long awaited fight between Draco and Harry, some funny good humor this time, action, drama....i'm telling you i was impressed and i'm not a Harry Potter fan.

This is without a doubt one of the best in the H.P. movies so far, though some of you surely beg to differ. It's really nice seeing all this magic this movie had the first 2 movies be turned into such an artistic concept. Definitely worth the watch. Enjoy!!!

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (Ice Age 3)

The name says it all. I still stick to the idea that the 1st was the best, it had good story, funny lines, then there's the 2nd that is also pretty good, and this one, well...not so funny, only a few good lines, somehow doesn't seem to have as much heart as the other 2, but still it IS Ice Age and what it lacks in story or humor it compensates with the characters we've fallen in love with. Enjoy!

Event Horizon

Deffinetly one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time. One of the movies that scared the crap out of me, plenty of gore, plenty of sci-fi and the chill you feel throughout the whole movie is exhilarating. I've always been fond of spooky space expeditions where something goes wrong and the crew dies of "unnatural causes", really missed watching this movie again, and i seriously think i will keep it on my desk not the shelf.
The cast is great, Sam Neil does an awesome job in this movie, the soundtrack spooky, and everything, just keeps you alert.
Deep-Space movies have always been among my favorites, especially this one that even though it's not made with H.R. Giger's imagination it still does the trick.
Prepare to be chilled, Enjoy!

Superman/Batman: Public Enemies

Haven't seen an animation in quite a while, amd i'm sorry, it felt so fresh, something i haven't tasted for a long time, but it's gotta change, besides Superman and Batman teaming up....that's a treat.
They team up to take on Lex Luthor's corrupt leadership, butthings make it difficult when there's a bounty on the Man of Steel and many metahumans are out to get him.
So yeah, it's good relaxing fun, with two (and more) of world's greatest super heroes.
Enjoy!

The Thaw

Ok, maybe it's just me, but isn't this whole parasite infestation, global warming idea enough as subjects for making movies. I'm fed up with it. Didn't feel scared at all, and suspense?, except for some screams here and there, it doesn't exist.
Two things are good at this movie, the cast's acting is good and they make this whole movie connect with the , and this is the 2nd thing, the storyline that kinda sucks, but somehow the actors pulled it through. Decided to check it out for Val Kilmer cuz i haven't seen him in a movie for a while, but other than that, i had no good reasons.
I wouldn't watch it again.

Witless Protection

Well, to be honest this is the first time that Cable Guy Larry (or the other way around) has caught my attention. So as a first impression, i was impressed, i've seen so many bad comedy's that i sometimes forget to laugh at the good ones, and this one has some funny ass parts.
He's fat, he stinks, has one hell of a way with people and deffinetly not a gentleman, more like he seems related to pigs (most guys are, NOT TRUE, but that's what women think), but i'll be damned if this shit is not funny, however doesn't mean that you'll like it, thank god for trailers, but it's relaxing and might squeeze a few giggles if you're in the right mood.

Have fun..or don't!! :-??

Star Trek

When i was 5 yrs old i remember hearing for the first time the words "Space, the Final Frontier", little did i know then that those words were soon to be among the most known and popular words throughout the movie industry. many tv shows and movies have been made surrounding Star Trek, but so far the end of this movie gave me back that feeling i felt when i first saw and heard for the first time of Star Trek.
Characters are strong, storyline heroic, bravery and the obvious laser guns, ships,a multitude of races, this really looks very good for the beginning of this "new" adventure with a whole new crew/cast. This truly shows a lot of promise, sequels practically beg to be made.
Chris Pine fills William Shatner's shoes pretty good in the role of James Tiberius Kirk, the emobodiment of courage , a man among men and a hero for the ages.
Loved it, it was fun, a good clean sci-fi adventure that i've been waiting to see for some time now. After all these been said i guess i'd say....heck yes, i recommend it.

Enjoy!!!

G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra

This movie reinvented technology, and non-stop action. Aside from some here and there jibber jabber, all you see is shooting, damage, story, cast, mix it with some future tech, the nanobots (that can be found in humans, suits, warheads, even fish) and take the fight, on, above and below the surface, and you get the Joe squad ready to entertain your ass anytime.
I bet that making a decent storyline for this movie must've been a pretty difficult task, yet they've pulled it off, but the story ain't that important with all the abundant special effects. So yeah this is deffinetly entertaining. Besides, not every movie has Sienna Miller in leather, Enjoy!!

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

took me long enough, but finally got to see it...I'm glad.

With this movie you get what you see, same cast (wouldn't have it any other way), bots abound, literally there's autobots and decepticons spreading like x-mas rabbits, even some wannabe romance between Shia and that major fox Megan Fox:> , and deffinetly leaving space for some future sequels or, why not even prequels (you never know these days).
Didn't have the same feeel to it like the 1st one, well nothing is as good as the first time (movie related), but same action packed, sci-fi surreal 'botz' and 'conz whooping each others asses and saving humanity.

it's awesome and anyone who liked even at least the first one this can't be missed. Njoy!

Pretty Woman

Banlieue 13 - Ultimatum (District 13: Ultimatum)

Well director's might have changed but the writer is still Luc Besson and i'm so glad this 2nd B13 kept that action packed feeel in it. I mean you can never take a fuckin break, it's that exciting, exhilarateing, always keeps moving, surrounded by the same great cast the 2 awesome PK artists that clearly made a good team together in B13(the 1st) and they're back to strike against a corrupt government (another one, ahha they're all the same).

Many just say it's a re-hash of the 1st movie and same old great acrobatics, but a sucker for this kind of action will always be a sucker (or not, heck i dunno), question is,are you bored of Twilight? or some porely made comedys (they just dont make'em like they used to), or some crappy sci-fi, this is the adrenaline pump you need. Great movie in my book, have funz, Njoy!!

Race to Witch Mountain

a pretty interesting story with strong cast, literally and quite the rush, but somehow this feels like a movie that fits children more. Whenever i see Anna Sophia Robb i just remember Bridge to Terabithia, which was probably her best performance in a movie, but either way child or not, Dwayne Johnson is there if you feel like taking it seriously, some effects here and there and entertaining. Enjoy!

X-Men Origins - Wolverine

Well this is just awesome. I can't possibly imagine how it could've been made any better, making a movie after comics is always a hard job, trying to find best actor for the part, and there's always the fans the ones that disagree with anything that is not in the original comics, well it's a movie and it pretty much let us know the origins of Wolverine.

No point talking about the effects, the cast is great, Sabertooth and Stryker very good choices, not sure about Gambit though, but still overall a great kickass movie. Has some amazing parts, and sure as hell feels nice to see the birth of Wolverine in a movie, really good.

Watchmen

Finally got the chance to watch this and first impressions, not what i expected at all. It starts with some twisted blabber mumbo-jumbo that lasts for an hour and a half, then half hour of action and kickass fighting (FINALLY) and some more mumbo-jumbo, only to have a terrible ending.( I don't like Dr. Manhattan at all no man should have that power)

Now something good about it: nudity, depraveacy, morality, laws and lack there of, fights are very good, effects no need mentioning, very good performance, im talking about all the actors, and find out more by yourselves.

Well all these said i'm no expert in Watchmen since this movie is the first time i ever heard of this project, all i knew was that it's some sort of famous and amazing comic, but that is all, so i only expressed my feelings after my personal taste....bottom line.....this movie, IS too damn slow and too damn long, but feel excited to watch since it really is a different movie, i dont regret watching it, besides there's more to it.

P.S.2. Three stars for the sex scene in Archie and Rorschach's awesome performance.
Enjoy!

Pink Panther 2

haha, Clouseau strikes again. This time around however he is accompanied by the best detectives to complete the Dream Team founded to catch a dangerous thief. Always funny, and entertaining, doing nothing but goof everywhere he goes but wouldn't be him if he wouldn't be goofy and clumsy and a total dumbass, or just a very lucky guy who's at the right place and the right time.
