limitless

starring bradley cooper one of the biggest names in hollywood to date. this devilishly handsome guy has starred in an entourage of movies along side of even bigger names than his, and he has done this while his acting career was on the up!

and there is still only one way he can go...bigger, and better.

limitless was probably to his best piece of work to date. not to insult hangover, valentines day, or A-team.

this movie follows the life of a washed up writter, with no life, no money, and certainly no future. until one day. by shear luck, or happenstance he bumps into an old friend from his past. this friend is anything but an ordinary guy. he is a drug dealer. and in his possession is an advanced drug that heightens the users mind to godlike limits. with only 20% of the brain being used at any one time. this drug lets anyone tap into that 80% of their brain that isnt being used.

mathematics, literature, linguistics, science, physics, all the information available at their fingertips is instantly easy to understand and digest. without even needing to think about it.

the story, the characters, the cinematography are all amazing. including the acting from cooper and others...this movie is thoroughly enjoyable to watch and is a fascinating ride into the life of a man with a four digit IQ!

i am number four

this movie. is great.

a simple idea, that started out as a novel written by Pittacus Lore.

this idea is of the extraordinary and alien persuasion.

beings from another planet, but who look exactly the same as humans find sanctuary on earth after the massacre of their people. 8 young kids with special gifts were protected and chosen to live on. they came to earth thinking they were safe. three are now dead. this is the story of number four.

awesome insight from a director with lots of talent, d.j. caruso (disturbia, eagle eye, taking lives)

and great acting from new find Alex Pettyfer.

also from Timothy Olyphant (hitman, gone in 60 seconds)

along with other young actors including: Teresa Palmer, Dianna Agron, and Callan McAuliffe.

this movie is the start of a new series on par of harry potter and twilight.

i cannot wait for the next installment.

true grit

mattie ross a young girl of 14 years. goes in search of a marshall to capture and/ or kill a man who murdered her father.

an all star cast:

jeff bridges

matt damon

josh brolin

barry pepper

and new arrival on the hollywood scene hailee steinfeld

make this movie, interesting, funny, and a film to go see this summer.

recommended for people older then 14.

i enjoyed this trip out of my suburban life to realise what it was like back in the days when people killed each other left right and centre. and when hangings were publicly displayed for all to see...even young girls and boys.

i thoroughly enjoyed this movie even if some of the dialect was too coarse to hear or decipher!

jeff bridges does esspecially well with his western american accent considering he just filmed tron: legacy not half a year ago.

barry pepper makes an amazing outlaw western cowboy. a role which puts him in a new light for me. even though it is a smaller role. he brings it home. i wish to see him in more of these character portrayel's. for soem reason he suits the clothes, and sports the look to a tee.

unstoppable

so apart from the name of this movie making no sense...cause the train WAS stoppable...it was sick!

denzel washington - an all time great!

and chris pine - an up and coming star!

they make this movie an intense thriller filled with daring, courage, and sometimes comedy!

th movie follows the lives of two train conductors, who have never worked with each other before, a day that started out normal. turns into chaos and destruction as an unmanned train "coaster" speeds through Wisconsin on a collision course to a town where a derailing is certain. the train, carrying mass amounts of explosive chemicals travelling 70 mph turns into a speeding nuclear missile with no way to stop it....

skyline

skyline, is a new release movie int he cinema's that offers a thrilling ride to some viewers. to say this movie had a mediocre plot would be goign too far...thrillers that dont go anywhere, and dont offer the audience any suprises, are not worth watchign in the cinema.

yes it had some design opportunites for the special effects and computer graphic point of view. but little else contributed to this movies rating.

skyline rated: 1/5

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows part 1

the penultimate film instalment into one of the highest grossing book series of all time...this highly anticipated thriller, drama about the boy who lived and his quest to defeat evil.

harry potter, hermione granger, and ron weasley travel across england trying to find the ever elusive horcruxes. these magical objects hold inside them a portion of voldemorts soul, and without destroying these first, harry has no chance of defeating him.

the best thing about the last novel being split into two, is the detail the director can go into, to encapture the whole book, because this book is the most enthralling of them all, the conclusion to everything! it needs to be amazing. and part 1, lived up to the expectations millions of people have layed upon it.

there were very few negatives people could pick at for this movie.

lets just hope the next movie also delivers, and delivers well.
cya next year (sigh) for part 2.

starring Bruce willis, morgan freeman, john malkovich, helen mirren, and mary-louise parker with karl urban.

who is evelyne salt?
Angelina Jolie...one of todays super actresses...is back at the action/ thriller blockbuster stuff!

in SALT she brings a new meaning to cia agent/secret russian opperative planted into american society at a very young age.
her character is an explosive, and gritty version of james bond...james bond shoots, kicks and punches...well evelyn salt does all those things.... and more!

the movie has a good story line, which makes it predictable in some spots...but also unpredictable in others...overall it is a fun and entertaining ride for all those lara croft lovers out there!
