knight and day

a quirky movie about a normal american citizen that is entangled in the life of a secret agent, where after many heroic rescues and stunts, leads the normal citizen, june (cameron diaz), to fall in love with the secret agent, roy (tom cruise)...a movie about war lords that try to get their hands on a new energy, a renewable energy in the form of a battery that can power a small city...the film is mainly about the relationship between june and roy though.

filled with realistic and awesome action and stunts this movie is very watchable with the family, aged 14+

Knight and Day rated: 2.5/5

Inception

christopher nolan, writer and director, is a genius.

inceptions stars:
Leonardo DiCaprio (Titanic, Blood Diamond, Shutter Island, Body of Lies, The Aviator, etc etc)
Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Brick, 10 Things I Hate About You, G.I. Joe: Rise Of Cobra, etc)
Ellen Page (Whip It, Juno, Hard Candy, X-men: The Last Stand, etc)
Tom Hardy (RocknRolla, Sweeney Todd, Black Hawk Down, etc)
Ken Watanabe (The Last Samurai, Batman Begins, etc)
Dileep Rao (Avatar etc)
Marion Cotillard (Public Enemies, etc)
Cillian Murphy (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, Red Eye, Sunshine, etc)

and of course
Christopher Nolan (Batman Begins, The Prestige, The Dark Knight, etc)

This epic Action, Thriller, Drama, Science Fiction is but one of Christopher Nolans triumphs in The film making business...he personally wrote and directed this captivating piece.

the extent and complexity of the movie is something peole can sit up all night and talk about, a directing masterpiece, with cutting edge cinematography and performances from all actors/ actresses in the movie make christophers latest effort one to enjoy for infinity.

He opens up the world of the dream, and through his character Cobb, played by Leo, he pushes the boundaries of impossible, with a life changing character piece provided by DiCaprio, this movie is the definition of Perfect.

I thouroughly enjoyed the 2 and a half hour ride and would stress to everyone over 16yrs old to watch Inception.

Inception rated: 5/5

karate kid

considering the original karate kid was one of th emost iconic movies ever made, this new version should not have been made...

even with the involvment of jackie chan, this movie still didnt fulfill the demands set by the original.

jaden smith, will smith's son, played the role of the young boy. he actually didnt do a bad job. the only thing that let him down was the script. it was filled with soppy romance and very little actual fighting, althought there was a bit of comedy throughout the film, which may appeal to the audience, it still felt like it was about 3/4 romance/boring filler, and 1/4 comedy/training, and a non-existent end fight scene, which was meant to be what the whole movie was about...

this movie took up an entire 2hrs 20 mins of my time, with maybe 10 minutes of actual fighting, and another 30 of training scenes.

all in all, there were some moments that were good to watch.

Karate Kid rated: 2/5

ECLIPSE

so...the third edition to the popular four book series stephanie millen wrote of love, eternal life, vampires and werewolves.

the thrilling tale started with Twilight, then continued into New Moon, the penultimate story of Eclipse follows our beloved characters of edward, bella and jacob, where true love shines through in the face of adversity. this movie is filled with action, comedy and mystery. the love bella has bottled up inside her for jacob is finaly drawn out. however it is not enough to keep her away from her one true love, Edward. jacob tries hard to persuade edward to let bella go, but the end result was never in doubt. bella agrees to marry edward. during all this a new band of vampires is created by victoria, who still thirsts for revenge after her partner, james, was killed in Twilight. through victorias ne born puppet riley she is able to create a force to large for the cullen family to hold off...an alliance is formed between the cullens and the werewolves, as this new born terror threatens there very existence.

the movie was, in my mind not as epic as stephanie invisioned in her book, however it was a bold attempt by the director.

Eclipse rated: 3/5

jacob: "i kissed bella, and she broke her hand....punching my face..."
