Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs opens with the stitched-together prehistoric family about to become a biological one: Manny (voiced by Ray Romano) and his mate Ellie (Queen Latifah) are expecting a baby mammoth.

Unfortunately, this makes Sid the sloth (John Leguizamo) and Diego the saber-toothed tiger (Denis Leary) feel left out. Diego, who worries he’s losing his edge, decides to head out on his own, while Sid adopts three suspiciously large eggs that he’s found through a crack in the ice.

Up to this point, the movie is perilously sappy–does anyone, particularly a kid, want to watch a kid’s movie about parenthood and impending middle age? Fortunately, the eggs turn out to be dinosaur eggs from a pre-mammalian underworld, and when the mama T-Rex comes to rescue her rambunctious little ones, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs transforms into a delightful comic adventure.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

Pure. Popcorn. Entertainment. That’s an exact classification of director Michael Bay’s Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Think of Transformers 1 on crack. In other words, this sequel took all of the extreme elements that made fans love the first movie and increased them exponentially.

The action is nonstop, with battles and explosions from start to finish. The camera (without any subtlety) exploits Megan Fox’s hotness to the max. As if she weren’t enough, a new sex kitten (Isabel Lucas) is thrown into the equation.

Shia LaBeouf is as charismatic as ever, and fills the starring role with ease. And then there’s the humor. Sam’s parents (Kevin Dunn and Julie White)provided some semi-raunchy laugh-out-loud moments in the first movie, but now they take it to the next level. (more…)

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) suspects Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) to be a new Death Eater recruit on a special mission for the Dark Lord. In the meantime, Professor Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) seems to have finally removed the shroud of secrecy from Harry about the dark path that lies ahead, and instead provides private lessons to get him prepared. It’s in these intriguing scenes that the dark past of Tom Riddle (a.k.a. Voldemort) is finally revealed.

The actors cast as the different young versions of Riddle (Hero Fiennes-Tiffin and Frank Dillane) do an eerily fantastic job of portraying the villain as a child. While the previous movies’ many new characters could be slightly overwhelming,

only one new key character is introduced this time: Professor Horace Slughorn (with a spot-on performance by Jim Broadbent). (more…)

Up

Watch Up Movies

At a time when too many animated films consist of anthropomorphized animals cracking sitcom one-liners and flatulence jokes, the warmth, originality, humor, and unflagging imagination of Up feel as welcome as rain in a desert.

Carl Fredericksen (voice by Ed Asner) ranks among the most unlikely heroes in recent animation history. A 78- year-old curmudgeon, he enjoyed his modest life as a balloon seller because he shared it with his adventurous wife Ellie (Ellie Docter). But she died, leaving him with memories and the awareness that they never made their dream journey to Paradise Falls in South America. When well-meaning officials consign Carl to Shady Oaks Retirement Home, he rigs thousands of helium balloons to his house and floats to South America. (more…)

Have you ever seen movie like G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra ?

Have you ever seen movie like G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra ?

The Rise of the Cobra not like a movie that you imagine, GI Joe is more like C.G.I. Joe filled with explosives, special special effects sequences that provide the film with a very interesting action. This is the time to feel the hot blast from the past. And McCullen, Scottish arms dealer (Christopher Eccleston), threaten to release over the world. Never stops. Ever. G.I.

Original Joe action figure was an all-American hero. These Joes are – all together now – “the best of the best,” an elite multi-national forces. Two soldiers, Duke (Channing Tatum of fans), an “on the ground, in the struggle” kind of guy, and ripcord (Marlon Wayans), his wisecracking best friend, who was saved by Joes after they were ambushed while transporting missiles. This unusual Joes. Snake-Eyes (Ray Park) is a silent ninja, Stella (Rachel Nichols) a bodacious Genius, Heavy Duty (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) are impressive weapons specialist, and Breaker (Said Taghamaoui) a technician.
