“Push” Movie Review
“Push” Plot Summary
Two young Americans with special abilities must race to find a girl in Hong Kong before a shadowy government organization called Division does. |
Very Enjoyable Action-Packed Sci-Fi Film
I had wanted to watch this film since I saw the trailer, but I missed the original theatrical run earlier this year. Luckily, there was a short return engagement in the theater this past week so I was finally able to watch as I planned, on the big screen.
The premise is very interesting. Chris Owen is Nick, a Mover who can move objects with his mind. Dakota Fanning is Cassie who is a Watcher who can see into the future. They join forces to help find Kira who is a Pusher, one who can control other peoples’ thoughts, and protect her from the shady US government agency called the Division.
It is like another incarnation of the X-Men with good guys and bad guys with very powerful psychic powers. We also meet Bleeders (who can scream so shrilly that blood vessels can burst), Sniffs (who can track people by smelling objects they used), Shifters (who can temporarily change perception of objects), Wipers (who can erase memories), Shadows (who can hide people around them from detection) and Stitchers(who can cure or cause injuries).
The movie is quite enjoyable to watch for its adrenaline rush. The main actors are all very good, especially Owen and Fanning. The action sequences are all very imaginatively conceived and executed. The plot is intricate and clever. They did not ignore the importance of the story behind the great special effects. When you watch this, don’t think too deeply and just enjoy the ride. It is certainly worth the time spent.

“Six Days Seven Nights” Movie Review
“6 Days 7 Nights” Plot Summary
Robin Monroe, a New York magazine editor, and the gruff pilot Quinn Harris must put aside their mutual dislike if they are to survive after crash landing on a deserted South Seas island. add synopsis
Surprisingly, delightful!
I sat down in front of this movie fully expecting to laugh at it and was hardly ever given the opportunity: although the opening, with David Schwimmer ‘Friends-ing’ it is pretty awful. You sense there’s more to it all though when he asks Heche to wear something special and her naughty thoughts are quickly usurped with a ring. Nice script moment and I kept watching…The meat of the film centres around the burgeoning love between the unlikely castaway couple of Ford and Heche. I mean, this film has no pretensions beyond being a fully loved-up snog in the back of the flea-pit matinee, so we get flirting almost from the moment they crash. But a mixture of competent shooting at a marvelous location and great acting from Ford that’s well matched by Heche (who’s not only attractive, but game, wearing revealing costume throughout and having to refer to her own chest as ’small’ more than once) renders it sexy and believable
Chuck in some authentic contemporary pirates – I’m also a bit tickled by the fact that the Star Wars prequels’ Boba Fett is chasing around after IV, V and VI’s Han Solo! – and Reitman’s smart decision to avoid excessive tie-ups (e.g. How does Heche get down the island white water Ford found so difficult? Will Schwimmer hook up with the Latino at the end? etc.) and you have highly enjoyable 6.5/10 matinee fare for a weekend date. Bravo

“Bringing Out the Dead” Movie Review
“Bringing Out the Dead” Plot Summary
Frank Pierce is a paramedic working Gotham’s Hell’s Kitchen. He’s become burned out and haunted by visions of the people he’s tried to save. add synopsis
Good once it finds its rhythm
After reading the novel by Joe Connelly this movie is based on(by the way, the title is a reference to MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL), it seemed a perfect fit for director Martin Scorsese, writer Paul Schraeder, and star Nicolas Cage. After all, this is the mean streets of New York, this is about trying to find salvation and redemption in the pits of despair, and it features a character on the edge. But when things start out, I was disappointed. It seems like all three of them, Scorsese, Schraeder, and Cage, were straining to get the effect of the novel, and it felt disjointed. The narration by Cage seems to be covering up for what’s not being shown, which always means trouble
In lesser hands, this might have been a problem. However, Scorsese has the craft to match his passion, and he soon finds the rhythm. The narration is used less and less as the movie goes on, and Cage is gradually able to show his grief, rather than just talk about it. We still don’t feel the impact of the story as much as we do in the novel, but we do feel something, thanks to Cage and Patricia Arquette(as the daughter of a patient he saves). Once it gets going, the black humor, courtesy of Ving Rhames and Tom Sizemore as fellow paramedics and Scorsese and Queen Latifah as dispatchers, helps fuel the picture as well. This isn’t quite as good as Scorsese’s other New York stories, but it is a worthy addition to his canon.

“Blow” Movie Review
“Blow” Plot Summary
The story of George Jung, the man who established the American cocaine market in the 1970’s.
Great movie!
It is great to see a movie that knows the distinction between ‘anti-drug’ versus ‘anti-drug-dealer’. This movie shows the human side of prisoners of war in the war against drug choice and drug freedom. It does not demonize George Jung nor make him out to be a perfect human being. For instance, he is not portrayed as the best father in the world. Nevertheless, this distinction and balance is desperately needed in Hollywood’s current extreme state of bias in movies against drugs
Johnny Depp and Paul Reubens and Ray Liotta play their characters with wonderful sensitivity. They create no dull moments on the screen. The movie would have benefited from seeing at least one montage of the final buyers of cocaine. I would like to see from where all those bags and bags of cash ultimately came!

“The Fountain” Movie Review
“The Fountain” Plot Summary
Spanning over one thousand years, and three parallel stories, The Fountain is a story of love, death, spirituality, and the fragility of our existence in this world.
Exceptional film-making
I was fortunate to see this at the Toronto Film Festival. While I have not seen Requiem for a Dream or Pi, I was fascinated by this film after hearing about the reaction in Venice. This is one of the most thought provoking & evocative movies I have ever seen. I think it is a movie that people will either love or hate, there doesn’t appear to be a middle ground
While introducing the film, in Toronto, Rachel Weisz commented that Aronofsky asks a lot from his actors, this appears to be true and most certainly pays off. Hugh Jackman’s gut-wrenching and emotional performance is phenomenal. This is undoubtedly his best performance and, as far as I’m concerned, you can hand him the Oscar. It is superbly written, acted and directed. Mansel’s score is beautiful. Be open to this movie and receive it. There aren’t enough superlatives to do justice to this film. I can’t wait to see it again. Brilliant!

“10,000 BC” Movie Review
“10,000 BC” Plot Summary
A prehistoric epic that follows a young mammoth hunter’s journey through uncharted territory to secure the future of his tribe. add synopsis
A great fantasy epic!
I just saw 10,000 B.C. with friends of mine today. It was really good. It had great cinematography, special effects, and action sequences. The story was good, not Oscar material, but still pretty good. The acting was fairly good too. Some of the dialogue was very cliched, and characters make some weird and dumb decisions (like freeing a saber tooth tiger, and hoping it doesn’t eat you afterwords).
But overall it was a fun action movie that I recommend. But if a science teacher tells you to write a report about life 10,000 years ago do not base your facts on what this movie says. This movie is not historically accurate. For instance a man pretending to be God has Wooly Mammoths work in the desert to create the pyramids. That is not realistic at all
But I like the fact that its not accurate. It makes the film more fun and less boring. This actually is more of a fantasy than a historical film, because of all of the far fetched ideas
So I say this movie is worth your ticket. I actually think you should see it in theaters, because its neat to see some of the shots on a big screen. This would be so cool on IMAX.

“Training Day” Movie Review
“Training Day” Plot Summary
On his first day on the job as a narcotics officer, a rookie cop works with a rogue detective who isn’t what he appears as.
Excellent
This is one of the best movies I ever saw. It was a long time since I saw a such a good movie. First when I heard about this movie I thought that is another ‘gangsta movie’ with a boring story, a gang war or something like that, in the first 15 or 20 minutes I was a bit disappointed but after this I’ve realized that is a great movie. I thought at this movie o hole day after I saw it,is so close to reality, it is like a reality show or a flagrant made by police with a hidden camera, i never thought a movie like this is possible,makes us think at the life we livin’, at the society as it is, naked, without any clothes on it. The movie has a few errors, but at a movie with such a story does not matter a few issues, practically the story and the mode the movie is made ‘repairs’ the issues keeping you close to screen that you can’t see them. Denzel Washington plays awesome, I haven’t seen somebody playing so good in this kind if role since Al Pacino in Scarface, I’m sure that if a person that doesn’t know Denzel Washington as an actor, watches how he plays, that person will probably tel you that is a men taken from the streets, not an actor. Ethan Hawke plays great to, he was probably deserving an Oscar at the time but perhaps it was just bad luck
It’s an excellent movie with a great story that is waiting for entering Top 250, if you wanna see an exceptional movie you should watch this, I can’t find my words to describe it so I probably have to end my comment here.

“Collateral Damage” Movie Review
“Collateral Damage” Plot Summary
After his family is killed by a terrorist act, a firefighter goes in search of the one responsible. add synopsis
I liked it because the terrorists were so evil…
so how can one not like seeing them get their butt kicked by a one man wrecking machine. Arnie is back, as a revenge seeking firefighter. This flick is much better than his last couple of films. His acting is OK, but some line deliveries are laughable. His face appears tighter than an army private’s bunk bed. Who says you have to age in Hollywood!(SPOILERS): My favorite scene is where the wolf forces a snake down his own man’s throat as punishment. It looked painful. Eek! I also liked the scene where Arnie sets a granade to go off but the wolf escapes because he hears Arnie yelling to the woman and child to get down. I knew the woman/wife would end up being just as evil because she wouldn’t be married to a terrorist if she didn’t support his actions and beliefs
Of course, it is unrealistic that one man could take over a guerilla camp when the whole USA operatives couldn’t do anything about it. But what I didn’t like was the scene toward the end when Arnie sets this huge fireball off in the tunnel and 2 people on a motorcycle are swallowed by the explosion and survive. That was so unbelieveable. Arnie takes care of the wife and terrorist. But, he should have killed the terrorist in a more painful way because the scum deserved that.(END OF SPOILERS)FINAL VERDICT): This is your average action flick. There was nothing spectacular that would make me want to see it again. I recommend it if you are a big action fan.
