Shia LaBeouf plays the role of Kale, he was a good student and things were going good in his life. One day Kale lost his father and from there he becomes a troubled in school and his day to day life. Due to his actions he is put under house arrest and things develop from there, he tends to notice things from his window since that is his only source of entertainment.

The action is entertaining, and you are kept on your toes, I really enjoyed the movie. Kale is running around trying to make sure that he isn’t insane, and at the same time he is falling for the girl next door. If you haven’t seen it, its worth watching.

Charlie Logan (Dane Cook) is a man who has been cursed since he was young, but the curse that was put on him by a girl that liked him got worse as he dated more girls. The curse says that after having sex with Charlie a woman would get married to the man after him, and this spread through to many women. He is a dentist that wasn’t looking for something like this, and then there is his friend Stuart or Dr. Stu who is a plastic surgeon and he is dirty as ever. This is one of the funniest chick flicks I have seen in a long time, the only way for Charlie to break the curse is to fall in love and that is what happens when he meets Cam Wexler (Jessica Alba) but he is afraid of the curse by this point that he would lose her. Things work out differently after a while, and the insanity start from that point. It is a very funny movie, I’m not the biggest fan of Dane Cook but he did a pretty good job playing Charlie. Two thirds of the movie is hilarious in the situation that was going on with Charlie and his curse, the last third of this movie is about him falling for Cam so it isn’t too bad as a chick flick, a lot of guys would enjoy this movie.

I was curious as to  how they were going to make this movie, 28 Days Later was a different type of Horror/Thriller movie. I really liked the original and the unique idea they had, making it look like that people had to survive. So this movie takes place 6 months after the virus has hit and a lot of those infected monsters have died from starvation. This time the US Army Steps in to help Great Britain, they established a safe zone inside London for them to repopulate and start again. There were a few odd things happening and things didn’t go as smoothly as they planned. This movie gets interesting, but nothing like the original, you get a scare from it but not the same feeling as that man who was fighting for his life. Towards the end it seems like the US Military vs. the Zombies but thats my take on it. There is a little more to it, but there are better movies out there.

The heroic Leonidas, armed with nothing but leather underwear and a cape, leads a ragtag group of 13 – count ’em, 13! – Spartans to defend their homeland against the Persians (whose ranks include Ghost Rider, Rocky Balboa, The Transformers, and a hunchbacked Paris Hilton)

From the original makers of Scary Movie and all movies like that comes this comedy. It seems like its going to be good, I am honestly looking forward to this slapstick comedy. I just hope its not as bad as some of the last of the Scary Movie series. But its hard to have a bad comedy with men in leather underwear, check out their video trailer.

There is all this talk about HD-DVD and Blu-Ray, to me they are the same high quality movies and tv series that I have been seeing for the past year. I have an HD-DVD player so I decided to purchase a few old school movies that I love in HD-DVD since I could just add them to my library of movies.

Over the past week we watched the first movie which is Army of Darkness which is a cult classic from the 80s. I didn’t know what to expect but I was extremely surprised by the quality, I have to say that I give Hi Def movies a 10/10, and I could see so much in this old movie, of course the special affects weren’t too special but still the quality of the movie itself is unquestionable.

 

When we watched Lethal Weapon it looked like a high quality Indie movie, it was amazing to see Mel Gibson so young, and I do enjoy Danny Glover, he is one of the actors that I really liked form the 80s. We really enjoyed this movie and the quality the movie was amazing and nothing beats a good action movie from the 80s.

If you are thinking about going with Hi-Definition then it isn’t a mistake since it just lets you enjoy all these old movies that you love. Next on the list is Blade Runner, I have it in HD-DVD but I have to watch it with the right people, I haven’t seen it before so I don’t want to ruin my first time watching it.

 

This is the third iteration of this series of movies, I didn’t think it would be any better then the second movie. Alice still survives the virus, and she is also the cure to this virus. The Umbrella Corp is still working in the background but you get more of a feel that they are in jam at this point and they are looking for their own solution. The story starts off a bit confusing, but they jump right into the action and you see that world has been taken over by the virus and only a few areas are left. The only way to survive from these hordes of monsters is to remain on the move and that is what a group of people are doing, Alice runs into this group and helps them. The action is good, I liked the characters in the movie, and it seems that this isn’t the final movie.

I have played the Hitman game when it first came out years ago and I really enjoyed it, the game was well made with an original story and the fans grew from there. I never thought that it would grow so big that they would make a movie out of it, I didn’t have high expectations for this movie but I was honestly surprised. This movie picks up right away into the action, it revolves around a company called The Organization which has ties with every government and every company to make sure it makes money. It has no loyalties and their business is the killing business, so they have created these killing machines to do the work for them. One of them is number 47 who is played by Timothy Olyphant. He is betrayed because of the information he knows, and sold out by the organization, from there things pick up. The funny part is how the camera angle in this movie follows that from the game, it keeps things interesting, they also picked the perfect female character to play the victim who is also a bad girl that 47 will protect and fall for. Overall its an easy movie to enjoy and a very well thought out ending.

I had high expectations for a Josh Harnett movie, he is usually in some very good movies and I like his acting. This movie is about an Alaskan town that goes through its usually yearly month of night, one month every year a town goes through 30 days of darkness and now it is their town, but with the darkness something else comes from the darkness. Its about vampires which I thought I would enjoy but the movie was so disconnected, inconsistent, and corny that I was really lost towards the end and it didn’t come to a conclusion, nothing really fit together and it was very badly made. I wouldn’t recommend it, the only thing I enjoy was some of the action scenes.

I don’t even know what to say about this movie, I have been looking forward to watching this movie for some time now. I remember finding out that there are at most two to three sexual scenes which would be cut in Kuwait but the movie would still be enjoyable and viewable. I was mistaken, very mistaken, The Ministery of Information BUTCHERED the movie, I mean it is 30% shorter then what it should be.

They decided to cut out political wit which they didn’t appreciate, they are total idiots, I feel bad for KNCC because they spend money on movies yet they can’t profit from it because these idiots butchered it. Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts did an amazing job but you miss a lot because of the cut scenes. I think the movie skipped at least 17 times throughout the whole movie, if your going to watch it don’t watch it in the movies in Kuwait.

I’m going to watch this movie again when I download it.

This was an unexpected movie from Kevin Bacon, I haven’t seen him in a good movie in a while. He plays the role of a man with a family, he loses his son in a gang killing and from there he takes things into his own hands. It doesn’t play out the way he thinks it does and then things go spiraling from there. A great storyline which unfolds at the good pace keeping your toes throughout the movie. One of things that I liked in the movie is the music that was used in different scenes, it complemented the movie perfectly. The fight scenes kept you on your toes, you never knew who was going to win and they were beating the hell out of each other just to survive. This grief stricken family was at the end of their rope and you want to know whats going to happen next. The ending was a little bit unexpected to say the least, but overall a great movie and worth watching.
