pass the SALT please

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

Salt rated: 3.5/5

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

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

-Night Hawk

yes yes yes man!

YES MAN
Considering all the movies Jim Carey has been in and how funny he has made those! this definitely falls into the sort of humour we have come to expect from such a hilarious actor!
its a fun filled comedy with little twists and turns along the way! sometimes with too much dry humour, but other times with stuff that will just make you laugh out loud! HAHAHAHAHA (like that)

So the story is about this guy (Carl Allen), around 30 if i remember correctly! his life sucks! but only cause he is so uptight about everything he does! he lets down his friends, he has no relationships with women apart from the one that ended three years ago! until he meets this insanely embracing character outside of where he works (a bank) where he is introduced to a covenant called "yes man" where, that's right you guessed it, you have to say "yes" to anything and everything!
It leads Carl on some wild and unexpected turns, and his life literally is turned into a roller coaster full of ups and downs! which eventually ends with a fun and most enjoyable and satisfying conclusion!

Life, love, beer and a whole lot of saying yes! makes this movie not only exciting but fun!
it makes u want to say yes to lots of things, just so you can experience the adventure that Carl did!

Yes Man rated: 3/5

"hey your not allowed in here!? what are you doing?"
"oops looks like we gotta go!"
"freeze!"
"OK"
"Carl what are you doing lets run"
"thanks, lets do that"
"stop"
"sure thing man"
"Carl come on!"
"oh god, i cant please everyone!"

The Troy and Gabriella show!

HSM3:SY

first off the bat, i MUST say, I'M A BIG FAN ALREADY! ha ha
loved it, it had the feel of the high school musical franchise that we all love, and they certainly created a sense of this really being the last movie in the trilogy! good stuff Kenny Ortega (director)

OK down to business!
troy = heart throb, if i wasn't gay, he would be all mine, after brad Pitt of course, and heath ledger.
Gabriella = a big girl, who is a Riga-dig-dig, with a big voice!
chad = black, and shit at basketball, its very cliche' with the stereotype but still Troy's best bud!
Taylor = like everyone of the cast except maybe Ryan, she and chad and Kelsi and Zeke and Jason and Sharpay all had layed-back roles and were there more to fill in the dance floor and offer opinions.
ryan = pretty much my second favourite dude on the film, wears some sick clothing and is the choreographer for the "spring musical" of theirs!
Sharpay = surprisingly gave up on troy in this movie, although she never did get over never sharing the spotlight with him on stage, is may hotter in this movie, and just like everyone else, got older and better at acting as they went through 1 & 2, to finish as pro's in #3.
Kelsi = my favourite chick character, heaps babed out! and the coolest band person you will ever meet / see on screen :D
Jason and Zeke = not in the movie much, its more the troy and Gabriella show as i said, but that's OK cause they do it good! as you already may have found out!
Rocketman and Sharpay's assistant = new characters added the sense that these people were being left in charge of the school as the seniors moved on to bigger and better things! Rocketman is funny, and the assistant is in the mold of Sharpay in her earlier years, conspiring and what-not.

Songs = great, little bit of everything, some sad ones, some funny ones, some serious ones and some fucking awesome ones! great to listen to and get involved in while watching (cannot wait to learn the lyrics)

Music = a little too loud in some songs, as you were trying to listen to the characters lyrics which were being drowned out by guitar riffs and drums. its a little hard to catch the meanings of the songs and where they r taking you if ya cant hear troy scream about how hard he has it, and about how hard Gabriella thinks Troy's penis is :D

Dancing = as always, new, exciting and inventive choreography, with some hints of HSM 1 & 2 to make sure you know where they r coming from. this time round they went for the BIG, BIGGER, BIGGEST scenes possible, to great affect, to make sure the audience isn't disappointed when they leave the cinema!

Storyline = unexpected, which leaves you thinking "where is this taking me?" and "whats gonna happen next?". its always nice to see a film that isn't predictable to the last scene! they really emphasis the "senior year" part of High School Musical 3.

last of all my rating
High School Musical 3: Senior Year rated - 3.5/5

Brock is right they did make some bits way to corny, but in other ways it was a nice change.

up and coming movies!

ok so there are a few good movies about to be released in cinema's
including:

• James Bond: Quantum of Solace (nov 7) feat. Sam Craig
  
• Eagle Eye (sep 26) feat. Shia Lebouf
  
• The House Bunny feat. Anna Faris
• Traitor feat. Don Cheadle
  
• Death race feat. Jason Statham
• Body of lies (oct 10) feat. Leonardo Dicaprio & Russel Crowe
• saw v (oct 24)
• pineapple express (oct 16) feat. Seth rogen & James Franco

probably the movie im looking forward to the most out of all of these is:
PINEAPPLE EXPRESS, i saw the trailor to this bad boy when i watched WALL-E yesterday and the makers of "40 year old virgin", "superbad" and "knocked up" are at it again, producing with hilarious acting, spills, thrills and kills what is to be another breath gasping experience. As pothead Dale Denton (Seth Rogen) and Saul Silver (James Franco) get into shit deeper than they can handle, scenes flash buy with action, comedy and one liners to match "SuperBad". All the while, explosions, amazing stunts and car chases through busy freeways keep the audiences attention front and centre. All up i believe this movie will create a sense of where James Franco's acting career is heading, other than being re-born as the Green Goblin's son in Spiderman 4 and what is still to come in a long list of comedies produced by the one and only Seth Rogen.

All of these movies will im sure keep us coming back again and again to the cinema's and will make our wait for "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" AND "Watchmen" so much the easier.
