“Four Christmases” Movie Review

“Four Christmases” Plot Summary

A couple struggles to visit all four of their divorced parents on Christmas Day.

A funny and extremely entertaining movie.

To be honest I was very excited about seeing this movie, because it looked funny, and I’m always up to see Reece Witherspoon in a comedic performance

So I came into the theater with relatively high hopes

However after the first 10 minutes(which were a bit ruff for me) I was losing hope for the film, then when it gets into the actual movie the 2 main protagonists don’t become so one dimensional anymore, but instead quite enjoyable

By the time the movie was over I just had a big smile on my face and the warm feeling inside me, like after you see a good movie

This movie I guess surprised me because I had not expected it to be THIS funny and THIS entertaining

However while it was original at times, and was very enjoyable, as a film it couldn’t help but fall into the whole cliche’e of romantic comedies(yet it still kept me on the edge of my seat), and at times it was cheesy, but hey what can really expect it to be

Overall this movie has got to be one of the better Christmas movies I’ve seen in quite awhile

It has the right amount of charm, humor, and entertainment to keep you intrigued,humored, and enough enjoyment to keep you watching it

So if your going to see any Christmas movie this year, or really any movie, by all means go see ‘Four Christmases’.

“Die Hard: With a Vengeance” Movie Review

“Die Hard 3″ Plot Summary

John McClane and a store owner must play a bomber’s deadly game as they race around New York while trying to stop him.

The best of the quadrilogy

Man, I was watching this movie the other day and I can’t believe how good this movie is. Even though I liked Die Harder, it lacked the brains of its predecessor. John McTiernan returned to give us an action flick that not only delivers as an action flick but is also quite effective as a thriller.

Simon Peter Gruber(Jeremy Irons) is the brother of Hans Gruber who was killed by McClane in the Nakatomi Plaza. He detonates a few bombs in New York City and sends McClane on ‘Fools Errands’ while covering up his real scheme: to steal gold reserves. McClane is saved from an a**kicking by angry mob by Zeus Carver(Samuel L Jackson), a shop owner. They reluctantly team up to play along with Simon’s games. They later find out his big scheme all along.

Samuel Jackson and Bruce Willis have excellent chemistry together. Plus you have to admire the match up. Zeus Carver has a nationalistic mentality and John McClane is your not-so-average white-bread cop. Despite their differences they still get together to handle the same goal.

Jeremy Irons is magnificent as Simon Peter Gruber. He’s definitely one of the best movie villains in history. His plan showed a clever genius absent from movie villains nowadays. Quite possibly the last serious role that Jeremy Irons had. Tell the truth, can you look at him with a straight face after he starred in Dungeons and Dragons? I think not.

I like the pacing of this movie too. It keeps you glued to the screen and provides a thrill ride from start to finish. Im kind of surprised that this movie didn’t do so well at the box office when everybody knows that its better than Die Hard 2. Plus this movie has lowest score of all Die Hard movies on Rottentomatoes. Shows you just how much these snooty consensus followers really know.

If you’re looking for an action/thriller that doesn’t disappoint you cant go wrong with Die Hard With A Vengeance. It has great acting, a superb villain, a good plot and some engaging action sequences. More effective than what passes for Thriller these days and is easily the most underrated action sequel of all time.

“Wayne’s World” Movie Review

“Wayne’s World” Plot Summary

Two slacker friends try to promote their public-access cable show. add synopsis

Sure is unique

It’s not at all hard to see why this early nineties comedy quickly became a huge cult hit with teenagers across the globe. Director Penelope Spheeris’ off the wall approach coupled with the ridiculously silly script from Mike Myers (‘Wayne’), Bonnie and Terry Turner, really helps ‘Wayne’s World’ appeal to an audience fully prepared for cinema completely void of seriousness

Mike Myers and Dana Carvey are Wayne and Garth, two rockin’ dudes from Aurora, Illinois who have their own TV. show which they broadcast from Wayne’s basement. When ruthless entertainment executive Benjamin (Rob Lowe) sees the program, he signs the guys to a major network in the hope that he’ll be able to exploit them and make lots of money. Meanwhile Wayne has fallen for the lead singer of a local heavy metal band (she’s a Robo-babe). and Garth fantasises of one day getting up the nerve to talk to his dream woman, or perhaps even sing to her! Bursts of absolute hilarity (look for Wayne’s ‘Happy Birthday Mr. President’) and segments of sheer stupidity leaves ‘Wayne’s World’ inconsistent, but there’s enough on going nutty humour to keep the viewer amused. Clever, tongue-in-cheek performances from the two leads and the supporting cast really help set the mood, while the whole movie’s ‘no set guidelines’ tack allows director Penelope Spheeris to do anything she pleases, and she does just that.’Laverne and Shirley’ get the royal treatment, as do many other telly and picture shows, and even Alice Cooper manages to send himself up. For something out of the ordinary, ‘Wayne’s World’ sure is unique
