Synopsis: Detective Allen Gamble is a forensic accountant who's more interested in paperwork than hitting the streets. Detective Terry Hoitz is a tough guy who has been stuck with Allen as his partner ever since an unfortunate run-in with Derek Jeter. Allen and Terry idolize the city's top cops, Danson and Highsmith, but when an opportunity arises for the Other Guys to step up, things don't quite go as planned.
Starring: Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Eva Mendes, Michael Keaton, Steve Coogan
Directed by: Adam McKay
U.S. Rating: PG-13
Another great action comedy enjoyed this year. The Other Guys joins an amazing cast to a really funny and entertaining plot. With 5 of my top favorites actors (Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Michael Keaton, Samuel L Jackson and Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson), I couldn't expect less than the great fun and loud laughs I had watching this film.
Detectives Danson ('The Rock') and Highsmith (Samuel L Johnson) are the toughest and most famous police couple fighting criminals in all the streets of New York. In the other hand, we have "The Other Guys", Detective Allen Gamble (Will Ferrell), a forensic accountant more interested in all the office paperwork than fighting crime on the streets and Terry Hoitz (Mark Wahlberg), a frustrated and disgraced officer that has been assigned to be Gamble's partner ever since he shot Derek Jeter during the World Series.
Gamble and Hoitz receive no respect from the other officers, especially from Danson and Highsmith, no matter how much Gamble idolizes them. During a pursuit of a group of bank robbers, Danson and Highsmith (lost in their own 'invincible' ego) jump off a 20-story building onto the sidewalk, trying to catch these professional robbers. Now that the police department has lost their best Detective couple, the fight to conquer that position has started. While other officers try to do their best to fight crime and get their recognition, Gamble prefers to do his best at a very secure and quiet place, his desk. When an opportunity arises for Gamble and Hoitz, everything they do works against them. They investigate a very important scaffolding permit violation and corruption case led by multi-billionaire David Ershon to cover his company's losses. Gamble and Hoitz are forced to split up, Hoitz becomes a traffic cop and Gamble tries to investigate the case by himself. When he finally finds all the clues to solve the case, they reunite again and become the true heroes solving the case and putting behind bars the bad guys, Ershon and Wesley.
The film was loaded with spontaneous and really funny scenes. The cast brought their best talent to make the film really, really entertaining. I totally laught with Will Ferrell's role, especially when he goes back to his old life as a 'Pimp'. He was HILARIOUS! It was also really funny to see Michael Keaton working in this film, his role was really funny as the Captain of the police department.
I highly recommend this film as a good option if you're looking for a really funny movie and enjoy a good time.
I would rate this movie with a 4/5

Synopsis: Two best friends -- one unlucky-in-love divorcee and the other a fun-loving bachelor -- have their lives turned upside down when they're unexpectedly charged with the care of 7-year-old twins while on the verge of the biggest business deal of their lives. The not-so-kid-savvy bachelors stumble in their efforts to take care of the twins, leading to one debacle after another, and perhaps to a new-found understanding of what's really important in life.

Being such a big fan of John Travolta's films, I must say that Old Dogs was really painful to watch. I thought this film would be at least as fun as Wild Hogs, but the truth is that it was one of the worst comedy films I've watched within the last 12 months. I didn't feel any chemistry between the actors. Besides that, the plot was extremely simple and empty. For a moment, I thought that a film like Date Movie or any other crappy comedy like those would be less painful to watch than Old Dogs. Sad, since it gathered such a great cast.
There were just a couple of scenes where I could say I honestly had some really good laughs, but mainly, the film wasn't good enough to be considered a comedy, or at least, a good film.
What did I like from this movie?
1. I enjoyed Seth green, Justin Long & Matt Dillon. A few very funny scenes with these guys
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. The plot was too empty and boring
2. What's up with John Travolta's hair? He looks like a dumb old man with that hair cut! Totally against his role... trying to be a playboy
I would rate this movie with a 2/5

Synopsis: A tale that follows 'the Guy', who works part-time helping his father run a small, vacuum cleaner repair business, but dreams of one day having his songs recorded and landing a record deal. Emotionally vulnerable, he is still coming to terms with the recent departure of his girlfriend and lacks the conviction and passion to move on in his pedestrian life. One day, he meets 'the Girl', an Eastern European immigrant who has moved to Dublin to start a new life for herself. Currently working as a house cleaner in an upper-class residence, she is struggling financially. She yearns for what she cannot afford--a piano to help her escape from the daily grind of finding her way through this strange new land. A relationship blossoms between 'the Guy' and 'the Girl', as they're both struggling. Their shared love of music causes them to flourish and grow with a new found confidence as they take a chance on each other and a new beginning on life.

Well, the truth about this review is that I never meant to watch this movie,in the first place. We received by post two new Blu-Rays from Netflix. I should mention that we never asked or listed this film in our list of movies, we were surprised when we received it. We decided to watch it anyway, since we were just set in from of the TV and ready to watch something and chill for the night.
Once is an Irish film about a guy who works part-time at a vacuum cleaner repair center and plays his guitar and songs on a busy street at nights, trying to move on and coup with the lost of his girlfriend (she's gone, not dead). His dream is to get a record deal and play his music. He meets a girl who is an Eastern European immigrant who moved to Dublin to start over with her life. They get connected through their music and of course, you might guess the rest of the story.
In other words, the film was all about the communication of two strangers through music and the lyrics of the songs they sang. It was actually annoying! I don't know, maybe it was me (since I'm not into musicals), or the film was so slow and boring that I didn't get it. I was bored out of my mind watching it, and I knew how bad it was because my wife Mary, who is a helpless romantic person, couldn't stand this film either.
I took some time just to read a little bit about the film, since it was the first time I heard (and watched) this film. Most of the reviews, critics and comments expressed the best about it, saying that it was one of the best films of the year (2007), a beautiful romantic film that was able to express its beauty through the music and lyrics sung by the lead roles.
I just say that I totally disagree with these reviews, comments and critics. Anyway, if you feel like watching it, do it! I'm just sharing my personal experience, ideas and impressions about the film. Maybe you could be another person out there who thinks it is actually an amazing and romantic film. In my case, I won't recommend the film.
What did I like from this movie?
1. Nothing
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. The girl walking with the broken vacuum everywhere. So annoying and unfunny
2. I didn't know if I was watching a film or a musical. If it was a film, it sucked... if it was a musical, could be considered the worst musical ever
I would rate this movie with a 1/5

Synopsis: Dapper Danny Ocean is a man of action. Less than 24 hours into his parole from a New Jersey penitentiary, the charismatic thief is already rolling out his next plan -- the most sophisticated, elaborate casino heist in history. In one night, Danny's handpicked 11-man crew of specialists - including an ace card shark, a master pickpocket and a demolition genius - will attempt to steal over $150 million from three Las Vegas casinos owned by Terry Benedict, the elegant, ruthless entrepreneur who just happens to be dating Danny's ex-wife Tess. Coincidence or motive? Only Danny knows for sure. To score the cash, he'll have to risk his life and his chance of reconciling with Tess. But if it all goes according to Danny's intricate, nearly impossible plan, he won't have to choose between his stake in the heist and his high-stakes reunion with Tess... or will he?

This remake of the original movie played by Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin is one of my top favorite movies of all time. Ocean's Eleven has it all. A great cast and such an amazing plot! I never, ever get tired of watching this movie. I enjoy it every single time as it would be the first time watching it. George Clooney and Brad Pitt make the perfect match for this film. The supporting team is more than perfect for their roles and the plot is great, keeping you guessing, thinking about all their options and possible situations, trying to discover what really happened and how they got it so perfectly well. I totally recommend this movie for absolutely anyone who wants to enjoy a very entertaining movie.
What did I like from this movie?
1. The Mormon brothers from Utah, so funny and annoying!
2. The plot and suspense about the way they planned and succeeded with their plan
3. Andy Garcia played along with Julia Roberts (I'm not a good fan of her) really good supporting roles
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. Nothing! I'm so into these kind of great movies that keep your attention and imagination so alive
I would rate this movie with a 4/5

The first time I watched Tony Jaa, I was simply astonished by his talent. This man CAN fight. As a master in Thai boxing, his previous movies (Ong Bak and The Protector) have kept my attention. On this new sequel, Tony Jaa brings one more time all his skills and stunts to amaze all the viewers in this epic story about a boy that had to face his parents' death and few years later he has the chance to take revenge of that tragic experience. A good movie for any lover of action movies and martial arts.
What did I like from this movie?
1. In this movie, he had the chance to show his skills with a wide range of weapons, along with his amazing personal fighting skills
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. This movie wasn't as good as the two previous one, even though, it was a total different plot and story

Synopsis: Laura spent the happiest years of her childhood growing up in an orphanage by the seaside, cared for by the staff and fellow orphans whom she loved as brothers and sisters. Now, thirty years later, she returns with her husband Carlos and Simon, their 7-year-old son, with a dream of restoring and reopening the long abandoned orphanage as a home for disabled children. The new home and mysterious surroundings awaken Simon's imagination and the boy starts to spin a web of fantastic tales and not-so-innocent games. As the opening day draws near, tension builds within the family. Carlos remains skeptical, believing that Simon is making everything up in a desperate bid for attention. But Laura slowly becomes convinced that something long-hidden and terrible is lurking in the old house, something waiting to emerge and inflict appalling damage on her family.

Creepy movie! Such an amazing horror movie! I really enjoyed this movie. I'm not a big fan of horror movies, but there are some really good ones that have been added to my favorite list. This has become one of them. The Orphanage (El Orfanato) is a Spanish movie about Laura, a woman who decided to buy the old house that hosted the orphanage where she lived when she was a little girl, and turn it as another orphanage or house for kids with especial needs. Laura and Carlos, her husband, have adopted Simón, a little kid with Aids who says that he's been playing with some "imaginary" friends. Laura and Carlos try to avoid the situation, thinking that it might be a normal stage on every kid's imagination, but soon she'll find out that what Simón said about his "imaginary" friends might be true, after facing the stressful situation of losing Simón after a short discussion with him about his "imaginary" friends, stories and games. When she sees Tomás, the little kid with the mask that Simón drew in a piece of paper, she believes that Simón is not dead and he might have been taken away. The search starts and she won't finish until she finds the truth about Simón's disappearance. Great end! Sad, but great end. I personally didn't know that Guillermo Del Toro would lead a horror movie like this one, since I see him more like a HellBoy, Blade, etc.
What did I like from this movie?
1. Even though The Orphanage is a horror movie, it's an old-fashioned horror movie. Really enjoyable, no "demonic", but more like really creepy ghost situations
2. Tomás, the little boy with the mask, really creepy!
3. I really enjoyed the creepy, scary scene when she's playing 1-2-3 trying to make the kids to come out of their hidden places
4. The old nun, so scary! Especially when she's hidden in the old little storage house
5. I really enjoyed that being a horror movie, it doesn't cross the line of the "evil" line that other horror movies cross
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. The end was kind of sad, even though, it was good for Laura, since it made her happy
I would rate this movie with a 4/5

Synopsis: It's been three years since Danny Ocean, and his crew--fronted by detail man, Rusty Ryan, up-and-coming pickpocket Linus Caldwell, explosives expert Basher Tarr, and safecracker Frank Catton--pulled off one of the most audacious and lucrative heists in history, robbing ruthless entrepreneur Terry Benedict of every dime stored in his impenetrable Las Vegas vault. After splitting the $160 million take, each one of the infamous Ocean's crew has tried to go straight, lay low and have a legit life, but that's proven to be a challenge--much to the chagrin of Danny's wife Tess. When someone breaks rule number one and rats them out to Benedict, going straight is no longer an option; he wants his $160 million back--with interest, or else. And as the gang quickly discovers, Benedict isn't the only powerful person in the world looking for Ocean's Eleven.

Danny Ocean and his gang are back! The guys worked on such a master plan on the first movie, stealing $160 million and splitting the money on equal parts. They have gone wild with it, spending it until the last penny. Well, it's payback time. Terry Benedict has hunted everyone of them down and is forcing them to pay him the $160 million back, plus interests. They decide to work on a new master plan to get the money and pay their debt, but the only problem is that they need to find new victims, this time, in Europe. I believe this sequel wasn't as good as the first one, but I still enjoyed so, but so much the plot. There were some funny scenes, a really good master plan to get the money back and keep the pride of being the best ones in their business. As a fan of this Ocean's franchise, I personally recommend it to everyone who enjoyed the first one.
What did I like from this movie?
1. The first part of the movie, when Terry Benedict starts chasing and finding every one of the members of the gang, really funny!
2. I really enjoyed Matt Daemon's role in this movie, he had a more relevant role than in the first movie
3. The way they play the french guy and steel the egg, such a master plan!
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. I personally believe that Julia Roberts was out of place in this movie. She didn't look good in some of the scenes, especially in the hotel and after they leave the jail. Maybe because of her pregnancy, even though, women always look really cute pregnant
2. I didn't like at all the scene of Julia Roberts being Julia Roberts, it feels like they ran out of good ideas in this part of the movie. Maybe it's just me, but I didn't enjoy this part of the movie

Synopsis: What are the odds of getting even? Danny Ocean and the gang would have only one reason to pull off their most ambitious and riskiest casino heist--to defend one of their own. But they're going to need more than luck on their side to break The Bank. Ruthless casino owner Willy Bank never imagined that the odds were against him when he double-crossed Danny Ocean's friend and mentor Reuben Tishkoff, putting the distraught Reuben in a hospital bed in critical condition. But Bank miscalculated--badly. He may have taken down one of the original Ocean's eleven, but he left the others standing and, worse for him, gave them a shared purpose: to take Bank down on the night of what should be his greatest triumph--the grand opening of his new casino, appropriately named The Bank. Their strategy is twofold. First they will ruin him financially by turning the tables on the precept that the house always wins. But that's just money. The knockout punch will be to Bank's personal pride and joy: his reputation as the only hotelier who has earned the Royal Review Board's Five Diamond Award on every single one of his hotels. The plan is elaborate, dangerous and damn near impossible--but there are no limits when it comes to one of their own.

Definitely one of my favorite movies and sequels! I believe this is one of those few movies with such a large cast with some of the top Hollywood actors and actresses that actually work (if you know what I mean!). I've watched Ocean's Eleven, Twelve and Thirteen countless times, and never get tired of it. The plot of every single one of these three movies is simply amazing and extremely entertaining, definitely my kind of movie! George Clooney, Brad Pitt and the rest of the gang have matched so perfectly for each one of the plots, noone tries to be the attraction and noone leaves a bad impression among the other roles. If you haven't watched Ocean's Eleven, the first sequel and (especially) this movie, you have missed such a great entertaining plot!
What did I like from this movie?
1. When Matt Daemon is with George Clooney (Danny Ocean) and Elliot Gould (Reuben) while Reuben is in bed recovering from his heart attack. Matt is talking with him in a very loud voice and George says that he's sick, not deaf
2. The whole plot about how they plan the revenge, I honestly have to admit that I haven't expected the results in any of these movies (which I totally enjoy!)
3. The whole situation in Mexico, when the two brothers push the employees from the factory to start a strike and get better conditions, just to be able to work on the stuff they'll use at the casino
4. The whole situation with Matt Daemon as Mr. weng's assistant and his romantic encounter with Abigail (Ellen Barkin)

1. I loved this movie!... there's nothing I didn't like from this movie. The only thing I don't like is that we won't have Bernie Mac among the gang for a possible new sequel in the future
I would rate this movie with a 4/5
Directed by: Steven Soderbergh
U.S. Rating: PG-13
Definitely one of my favorite movies and sequels! I believe this is one of those few movies with such a large cast with some of the top Hollywood actors and actresses that actually work (if you know what I mean!). I've watched Ocean's Eleven, Twelve and Thirteen countless times, and never get tired of it. The plot of every single one of these three movies is simply amazing and extremely entertaining, definitely my kind of movie! George Clooney, Brad Pitt and the rest of the gang have matched so perfectly for each one of the plots, noone tries to be the attraction and noone leaves a bad impression among the other roles. If you haven't watched Ocean's Eleven, the first sequel and (especially) this movie, you have missed such a great entertaining plot!
What did I like from this movie?
1. When Matt Daemon is with George Clooney (Danny Ocean) and Elliot Gould (Reuben) while Reuben is in bed recovering from his heart attack. Matt is talking with him in a very loud voice and George says that he's sick, not deaf
2. The whole plot about how they plan the revenge, I honestly have to admit that I haven't expected the results in any of these movies (which I totally enjoy!)
3. The whole situation in Mexico, when the two brothers push the employees from the factory to start a strike and get better conditions, just to be able to work on the stuff they'll use at the casino
4. The whole situation with Matt Daemon as Mr. weng's assistant and his romantic encounter with Abigail (Ellen Barkin)

Synopsis: At the Forest Ridge Mall, head of security Ronnie Barnhardt patrols his jurisdiction with an iron fist, combating skateboarders, shoplifters and the occasional unruly customer while dreaming of the day when he can swap his flashlight for a badge and a gun. His delusions of grandeur are put to the test when the mall is struck by a flasher. Driven to protect and serve the mall and its patrons, Ronnie seizes the opportunity to showcase his underappreciated law enforcement talents on a grand scale, hoping his solution of this crime will earn a coveted spot at the police academy and the heart of his elusive dream girl Brandi, the hot make-up counter clerk who won't give him the time of day. But his single-minded pursuit of glory launches a turf war with the equally competitive Detective Harrison of the Conway Police, and Ronnie is confronted with the challenge of not only catching the flasher, but getting him before the real cops do.
Starring: Seth Rogen, Ray Liotta, Michael Pena, Anna Faris, Dan Bakkedahl

U.S. Rating: R
I could say that I compare this movie with Me, Myself & Irene (in some way). Maybe because of the bi-polar cop role. The only difference is that in this movie, Seth Rogen plays a much drama kinda guy. I really enjoyed the plot, a good movie for a weekend night at home. The movie offered a good cast and plot, since it brings comedy from some actors that I've never seen in a comedy role before, for example, Michael Pena (which I consider a good actor, for example, in Shooter).
What did I like from this movie?
1. The interview moments, when he seriously take as an offense being called "security guard"
2. The scene when they bit the crap out of the kids skating in the parking lot
3. The moment when Seth is left in this gang neighborhood and he appears later with the kid after kicking everyone's butts and he gets motivated to go for the Police test
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. The final scene when the pervert is running naked in the mall, too much!
I would rate this movie with a 3/5

Synopsis: Mitch, Frank and Beanie are disillusioned with their personal lives begining when Mitch's nymphomanic girlfriend, Heidi, cheats on him, then former party animal Frank gets married, but unwilling to get go of his wild life, and Beanie is a family man seeking to reclaim his wild and crazy youth. Beanie suggests that they form their own fraternity in Mitch's new house on a college campus to re-live their glory days by bringing together a variety of misfit college students, losers, middle-aged and elderly retirees as their new friends and later try to avoid being evicted by the new Dean of Students, Pritchard, whom still holds a personal grudge against all three of them.
Starring: Luke Wilson, Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Jeremy Piven, Ellen Pompeo
Directed by: Todd Phillips
U.S. Rating: R
A funny and very entertaining plot, when three old friends trying to escape from their lives and daily routines decide to create their own fraternity with the weirdest selection of losers and old people, trying to bring back their golden years at school.
What did I like from this movie?
1. Definitely, the whole situation with Blue was one of the funniest components in this plot.
2. I really laughed when they went out and kidnapped the first members of their new fraternity, when they're hunting one by one with their women stocks in their heads and can't be mean with some of them or their relatives (ex. the scene at the parking lot).
3. The reason why Frank can't drink... he totally loses his mind. After falling on this temptation at the welcome party, he runs naked to the gymnasium, really funny.
4. The whole qualification process to be accepted and all the tests they had to face.
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. It could be even more entertaining and funny. I believe the cast brought three really funny movie comedians, so we could expect more from it, but it was really entertaining though. I can't wait for the sequel in 2011!
I would rate this movie with a 3/5
