“Duell — Enemy at the Gates” Plot Summary
Two Russian and German snipers play a game of cat-and-mouse during the Battle of Stalingrad. add synopsis
Smashing good movie
There is something odd about Russian peasants talking in articulate, middle-class British accents, but it works. I’m not sure why. Something symbolic about the nobility of the common man?Ed Harris doesn’t bother with accents either. In fact, nobody does. It’s probably for the best
This is a pretty gripping movie, as is any movie where the lives of all the characters can end with the mere squeeze of an index finger from some unseen place
Watch this movie. Despite what you might read here, it’s a lot better than rubbish like Saving Private Ryan. Though it might be a shock to the system for many of you to have no Americans to barrack for.

“Ocean’s Twelve” Movie Review
“Ocean’s 12″ Plot Summary
Daniel Ocean recruits one more team member so he can pull off three major European heists in this sequel to Ocean’s 11.
A brilliant satire of the heist movie… I think.
I sat for a couple hours after seeing Ocean’s Twelve trying to figure out why Soderbergh and gang had made such an outrageous film. Too much of it didn’t add up: the ridiculous laser system guarding the egg in the museum and the equally ridiculous way in which it was defeated; the flashbacks containing information that completely undermined the apparent narrative thrust; Julia Roberts’ plot twist and the avalanche of seemingly nonsensical and irrelevant self-reference that immediately followed; O12 had me completely stumped. Until I re-interpreted these scenes as clues towards something else: that O12 is not, in fact, a heist movie, but a *satire* of the heist movie
Why else would someone of Sod’s stature overstuff the film with cliches, like the enigmatic and debonair master thief, and the colorful and completely trustworthy team of people who would never exist in real life? One character (the woefully underused Eddie Izzard) even overtly mentions that one particular element of the film is a cliche — but he doesn’t say what it is a cliche *of*. Notice all the decoys, impostors, holograms, secret languages… O12 is littered with breadcrumbs, and I’m willing to believe that there was never actually a spec script called ‘Honor Among Thieves.’ As a heist movie, it falls flat on its face, arguably worse than Hudson Hawk (which suffered more from sheer goofiness overload, rather than bewildering nonsense). It simply does not make sense. How did the Night Fox get into that house in Amsterdam? Conveniently not explained. How did Benedict find all of the Twelve at once? Conveniently not explained. How did Julia Roberts’ plot twist work, while Matt Damon is with her but does not experience the same story change? Conveniently brushed off. How in the name of Zeus did a certain someone show up out of the blue while the gang was locked up and help them with a certain problem? How was this individual aware of certain aspects of Isabel Lahiri’s paperwork? An outlandish narrative convenience… or a satire of the genre? Why was so little narrative dedicated to convincing the audience of Benedict’s extremely vindictive motivation? How else do you explain the obvious expenses the thieves racked up in their very quest to make money? I mean, come on, when Damon and the other two remaining thieves start spouting off all the heist jargon as they try to figure out a contingency plan… it’s preposterous. No one talks like that
Maybe I’m reaching. But either way you slice it, O12 is much, much more enjoyable as a *satire* of the heist film. That’s the only way I can understand the film. I know why a sequel was made, certainly: The original made over $450 million dollars worldwide, far and away Sod’s most financially successful film. Its closest competitor is Erin Brockovich, which made a little over $250M worldwide, and Traffic clocks in at a little over $200M. Successful, certainly, but not blockbusters like O11 was. A sequel was as inevitable as death and taxes. So it occurs to me that Sod decided he might as well have fun with it — screw with the audience a little, poke fun at the actors themselves (good naturedly), and they still walked away with about $360M.There also might be a meta-commentary going on about American audiences and how little they catch on to stylistic subversion (I am an American myself, for the record) but it’s pure speculation. All I can tell you is that O12 simply does not work as a straightforward film and can really only be enjoyable as a satire. There’s simply too many outrageous scenes and too many cliches. There are simply too many lines of dialog that only make sense if the whole movie is a genre skewer. It’s also much easier on my brain. And I’d like to think that Sod hadn’t morphed into a cynical robber baron who no longer cared about making a good movie.

“Finding Nemo” Plot Summary
A father-son underwater adventure featuring Nemo, a boy clownfish, stolen from his coral reef home. His timid father must then travel to Sydney and search Sydney Harbour to find Nemo. add synopsis
Another Pixar Great!
Finding Nemo is a very good animated film, probably it’s in the top 10 animated features of all time. The story is about a little clown fish named Nemo. He ventures out into the open sea while not listening to his father. He gets captured by a dentist and now his father, marlin has to save him from the clutches of the dentist and his ‘evil’ niece. The story of the film is unbelievable. I don’t know how a movie about a fish can be very popular. The voice acting is pretty good. The all-star cast did a great job voicing their characters. The music in this film is sweet. The music will lure you more into the movie. The song in the film is great for people who like music 40 years ago. Once again, Pixar did not fail in its ability to make classic animated films. Overall, this is a very good film. I rate this movie 10/10.

“AVP: Alien vs Predator” Movie Review
“AVP” Plot Summary
During an archaeological expedition on Bouvetoya Island in the Antarctic ocean, a team of archaeologists and other scientists find themselves caught up in a battle between the two legends. Soon, the team realise that only one species can win.
A guilty pleasure
I know I’m in the minority when I say, ‘I really enjoyed ‘Alien vs. Predator”. While skimpy in plot, Paul Anderson’s movie looks every penny of its multi-million budget, there are many nods to the two franchises and the cast look great.
Sanaa Lathan is a beautiful and convincing action heroine and the various action set-pieces are impressive to watch.
The special effects are top notch and both Alien and Predator fans should be happy with the way the characters are portrayed on the screen.
With an impressive soundtrack to boot, this remains a guilty pleasure. Roll on a second ‘AVP’…

“Hotel Rwanda” Movie Review
“Hotel Rwanda” Plot Summary
The true-life story of Paul Rusesabagina, a hotel manager who housed over a thousand Tutsi refugees during their struggle against the Hutu militia in Rwanda.
Such an important film
I’m a college freshman at a small school in New York taking a class on the individuals role and responsibility in community. We read the book ‘We’d like to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families’ about the Rwandan genocide and then went to see this movie. It is very accurate about what happened but reading it is just not the same as seeing it, it seemed horrendous always but when I actually saw the movie it was just… Jesus… it’s so hard to believe that this happened and that this could. The film was excellent in both execution and portrayal. Everyone must see this movie and know we are all human beings and it is our responsibility to be there for each other. Jesus Christ… this can not happen.
