Trailers of the Month

Sony Pictures released a new (International) movie trailer for Adam Sandler's latest film, Grown Ups. Now that we have more material on these new trailers, it looks a little bit silly, but really entertaining at the same time. I believe it will be a good option for this next summer, offering a great comedy cast and what seems to be an interesting and funny plot.

Synopsis: Five friends and former teammates reunite years later to honor the passing of their childhood basketball coach. With their wives and kids in tow, they spend the Fourth of July holiday weekend together at the lake house where they celebrated their championship years earlier. Picking up where they left off, they discover why growing older doesnt mean growing up.

Release Date: June 25th, 2010

Movie Review: The Lovely Bones

Thursday, February 11, 2010 0 comments

Synopsis: Susie Salmon, a young girl who has been murdered, watches over her family -- and her killer -- from heaven. She must weigh her desire for vengeance against her desire for her family to heal.

Starring: Rachel Weisz, Mark Wahlberg, Susan Sarandon, Stanley Tucci, Michael Imperioli
Directed by: Peter Jackson
U.S. Rating: PG-13

A very entertaining film but confusing at the same time. Peter Jackson tried to adapt the famous novel into a film that missed some significant details trying just to compress all the content into the script and deliver as much emotions as he could. No matter what, it was a colorful and imaginary story, supported by an amazing cast and direction.

While I was watching this film, I couldn't stop thinking on the films The Invisible (Justin Chadwin) and What Dreams May Come (Robin Williams). You might ask... Why? Well, On the film The Invisible, Nick Powell (Justin Chadwin) is attacked by a few guys and is being left hurt to death, forcing him to walk and live in that intermediate area between "Earth and Heaven", watching everyone and not being seen. His job was trying to help the people involved in his life and incident to help him to be found and saved. On the film What Dreams May Come, Chris Nielsen (Robin Williams) dies and stays in an imaginary and extremely colorful world and he shows the importance of decisions and the consequences of these decisions through the story shown on this film.

This is exactly what happens in The Lovely Bones. It is about Susie Salmon, a young 14-year-old girl who is murdered by her neighbor in a terrible incident and she gets trapped in between "Earth and Heaven" trying to help her father and family to find her killer and make them coup with their sadness and move on with their lives.

The Lovely Bones offers a good and complex material, attempts to engage people's emotions through a really interesting, colorful and imaginative story. I personally loved it, so I'm more than confident to recommend it to everyone who wants to watch a very imaginative drama/suspense film with an amazing cast.

By the way, I recommend also the two other movies mentioned on this review :)

What did I like from this movie?

1. The cast involved was great and really enjoyable. In fact, Stanley Tucci's performance has been highly recognized for his role in this film

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. People might get lost or find it a little bit weird if they're not paying full attention to the story, since it is complex, mixing images and situations from both worlds, the imaginary world where Susie is living in, and the real world where everyone else is living at the moment

I would rate this movie with a 4/5

Movie Review: Good Hair

Wednesday, February 10, 2010 0 comments

Synopsis: When Chris Rock's daughter, Lola, came up to him crying and asked, "Daddy, how come I don't have good hair?" the bewildered comic committed himself to search the ends of the earth and the depths of black culture to find out who had put that question into his little girl's head. Rock visits hair salons and styling battles, scientific laboratories, and Indian temples to explore the way black hairstyles impact the activities, pocketbooks, sexual relationships, and self-esteem of black people. Celebrities such as Ice-T, Kerry Washington, Nia Long, Paul Mooney, Raven Symone, Maya Angelou, and Reverend Al Sharpton all candidly offer their stories and observations to Rock while he struggles with the task of figuring out how to respond to his daughter's question. What he discovers is that black hair is a big business that doesn't always benefit the black community and little Lola's question might well be bigger than his ability to convince her that the stuff on top of her head is nowhere near as important as what is inside.

Starring: Chris Rock, Maya Angelou, Marvet Britto, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Rhonda Cowan
Directed by: Jeff Stilson
U.S. Rating: PG-13

I'm a huge fan of Chris Rock. I enjoy his movies, TV Shows and especially, his comedy stand up shows. This time, Chris has come with something completely different... a documentary. When Chris Rock's daughter, Lola, came up to him crying and asked, "Daddy, how come I don't have good hair?", Chris decided to search the reasons behind that question and find the cultural, financial and social areas related with one of the most important things in women's lives, especially black women... their hair :)

In a very fresh and really funny way, Chris discovers many things that honestly, I didn't know and never heard about women's hair. Before I watched this documentary, I never heard about relaxers, I never... ever knew that these beautiful and famous black actresses used weaves (I didn't even know what a weave was!), I knew about the Indian hair, but never knew some of the things said and shown on this documentary, and finally, the millionaire industry behind the hair, especially, black women's hair. How can a woman pay from 1000 to 5000 dollars for a weave, and some women replace them every month!... Crazy!

A really entertaining, fresh and funny documentary, so worth to watch! Chris Rock nailed it in this, his first comedy/documentary about... hair.

What did I like from this movie?

1. Chris Rock rocks on this documentary
2. The celebrities participating on the documentary was more than entertaining. Some of them are well known (Ice-T, Kerry Washington, Nia Long, Paul Mooney, Raven Symone, Maya Angelou, Reverend Al Sharpton, etc.)
3. The interviews and conversations at the barber shops... hilarious! There are no places like barber shops

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. If he used the time he used to show the BB contest in more content and conversation, it would be even better. The BB contest was kind of boring

I would rate this movie with a 3/5

Movie Review: Miss March

Tuesday, February 9, 2010 0 comments

Synopsis: A young man awakens from a four-year coma to hear that his once virginal high-school sweetheart has since become a centerfold in one of the world's most famous men's magazines. He and his sex-crazed best friend decide to take a cross-country road trip in order to crash a party at the magazine's legendary mansion headquarters and win back the girl.

Starring: Molly Stanton, Holly Hindman, Trevor Moore, Sara Jean Underwood, Zach Cregger
Directed by: Zach Cregger, Trevor Moore
U.S. Rating: R

I thought that Miss March would be an entertaining comedy, but it was far from it! The film starts offering a few good laughs and suddenly, it turns into something extremely boring and annoying. A script empty of good content, ideas and no funny at all. It offered some sexist, bizarre and non-sense situations, The cast was pretty boring, especially Tucker Cleigh (Trevor Moore) who seemed to take the lead role after the first 1/3 part of the film. The more he appeared in camera and talked, the more annoying he became.

Miss March, an unfunny comedy only recommended as a very last option, and you must be conscious that you're getting what many people considered one of the worst movies out in 2009!

What did I like from this movie?

1. Hugh Hefner... what a pimp!

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. The cast was boring
2. the script has no content or ideas, after 20 minutes, it was just a boring story based on random and non-sense situation

I would rate this movie with a 1/5

Here's a great news for all those lovers of Tony Jaa films, just like me! The movie trailer for the new Ong Bak sequel has been released. Ong Bak 3 brings again all those great and impressive stunts and martial arts displayed in all the previous films.

Forget about Jet Li, Jackie Chan and all those great fighters, this guy brings a new dimension of stunts, combat and fights. Can't wait to watch it!

Synopsis: The legend of Ong Bak 3 begins after Tien (Tony Jaa) has lost his fighting skills and his beloved step-father at the Garuda’s Wing cliff from the raid led by Jom Rachan (Saranyu Wonggrajang).

Synopsis: A rogue detective is as devoted to his job as he is at scoring drugs -- while playing fast and loose with the law. He wields his badge as often as he wields his gun in order to get his way. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina he becomes a high-functioning addict who is a deeply intuitive, fearless detective reigning over the beautiful ruins of New Orleans with authority and abandon. Complicating his tumultuous life is the prostitute he loves. Together they descend into their own world marked by desire, compulsion, and conscience.

Starring: Nicolas Cage, Eva Mendes, Val Kilmer, Xzibit , Fairuza Balk
Directed by: Werner Herzog
U.S. Rating: R

Definitely a really good role performance played by Nicolas Cage, but not his best one, at all. Many, many reviews and critics out there say that it's one of the best (if not the best!) roles played by Nicolas Cage.

Bad Lieutenant is a remake of the original one from 1992, starring Harvey Keitel. This time, Nicolas Cage is a cop in New Orleands, right after the devastation, chaos and desolation created by the Hurricane Katrina. He's good at his job, he loves what he does. But when this devotion and hard work is mixed with a potential weakness... drugs, we all know the end of the story. On this story, Terence McDonagh is trying to manage his chronic back pain and long hours at work with pain killers and drugs. Suddenly, drugs start replacing these pain killers and his addiction lead him from one decision and action to another one until he finds himself involved in some dangerous situations. He has to take important and smart decisions against an important drug dealer, ruthless shark loaners, important business men and keep/clean his public image.

A dark drama/thriller with a really good performance played by Nicolas Cage, supported by an unique cast. If you're a Nicolas Cage's films fan, then you must watch this film.

What did I like from this movie?

1. It's a dark thriller, but really well played by the lead role and the rest of the cast involved
2. I totally laughed with the non-sense scene with the iguanas! So funny!
3. I enjoyed the end, even though he sucked and kept being corrupted in some (or most of the) ways, at least he took all the bad guys down
4. Terence McDonagh's love for his gun! hehehe... and the way he walked caused by his back pain

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. There were some weird and non-sense situations, but at least were funny

I would rate this movie with a 3/5

Submit has released the movie trailer for the upcoming film, The Ghost Writer. The Ghost Writer stars Ewan McGregor, Pierce Brosnan, Kim Catrall, Olivia Williams, Tom Wilkinson, Timothy Hutton, & Eli Wallach and is directed by Academy Award-winner Roman Polanksi. A suspense/thriller that promises to be one of the great films worth to watch this next February 2010!

Synopsis: When a successful British ghost writer, THE GHOST, agrees to complete the memoirs of former British Prime Minister ADAM LANG, his agent assures him its the opportunity of a lifetime. But the project seems doomed from the start—not least because his predecessor on the project, Langs long-term aide, died in an unfortunate accident.

The Ghost flies out to work on the project, in the middle of winter, to an oceanfront house on an island off the U.S. Eastern seaboard. But the day after he arrives, a former British cabinet minister accuses Lang of authorizing the illegal seizure of suspected terrorists and handing them over for torture by the CIA—a war crime. The controversy brings reporters and protesters swarming to the island mansion where Lang is staying with his wife, RUTH, and his personal assistant (and mistress), AMELIA. As The Ghost works, he begins to uncover clues suggesting his predecessor may have stumbled on a dark secret linking Lang to the CIA—and that somehow this information is hidden in the manuscript he left behind. Was Lang in the service of the American intelligence agency while he was prime minister? And was The Ghosts predecessor murdered because of the appalling truth he uncovered?

Resonating with topical themes, this atmospheric and suspenseful political thriller is a story of deceit and betrayal on every level— sexual, political and literary. In a world in which nothing, and no one, is as it seems, The Ghost quickly discovers that the past can be deadly—and that history is decided by whoever stays alive to write it.

Release Date: February 26th, 2010
