“The Punisher” Plot Summary
After his wife and family are killed, G-Man Frank Castle takes it upon himself to distribute punishment to those responsible for the vendetta.
GREAT MOVIE! vigilante-style justice done right
‘The Punisher’ is a shining example of revenge and vigilante-style justice done right. It’s also yet another comic book adaptation done properly. I thought this movie was one of the best I have seen in a long time. In the compendium of comic movies, this falls just shy of the two X-Men movies and Spider-Man but easily surpasses Batman, Batman Begins, Superman and The Hulk. The fact that it is an R-rated movie will kill any possible chance of decent box-office numbers, but it was a necessary step to take, and the quality of the movie just makes up for it. Hopefully this was Thomas Jane’s breakout role, as he was outstanding and has the potential to be a contender to Ben Affleck, Hugh Jackman, Colin Farrell, and Matt Damon as the next big action star. If you like action movies, check out this movie. If you like comic book adaptations, check out this movie. Heck, if you just like movies in general, The Punisher is two hours well-spent. Like Thomas Jane himself says, ‘Frank Castle is dead. Long live The Punisher.’

“The Talented Mr. Ripley” Plot Summary
In late 1950’s New York, Tom Ripley, a young underachiever, is sent to Europe to retrieve a rich and spoiled millionaire playboy, named Dickie Greenleaf. But when the errand fails, Ripley takes extreme measures.
Elegant, literary thriller
THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY Aspect ratio: 1.85:1Sound formats: Dolby Digital / DTSWhilst in Italy, a young American chancer (Matt Damon) assumes the identity of a wealthy playboy (Jude Law) with whom he’s become emotionally obsessed, leading to murder and betrayal on a grand scale
Elegant, literary thriller based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith (the subject of an earlier adaptation, PLEIN SOLEIL, in 1960), in which sociopathic anti-hero Tom Ripley (Damon) cheats, steals and murders his way to a position of huge good fortune, leaving a trail of devastation in his wake. Set against the backdrop of tourist Italy – encompassing Rome and Venice and all points in between – Anthony Minghella’s film is a compelling treat from start to finish, layering detail upon detail as Damon’s friendship with Law blossoms and sours, leading to an inevitable plot twist which introduces a whole new set of complications for the central characters, rendering the audience complicit in Ripley’s escalating crime wave
Damon may seem a little too young and unworldly for such a complex character, but he judges the role with great sensitivity, especially in those scenes where (overtly or otherwise) he indicates a sexual attraction to Law which goes unreciprocated (or does it?), until the characters are driven apart by jealousy, bitterness and – ultimately – violence. His fantasies shattered by harsh reality, Damon finds solace in the arms of a mutual acquaintance (Jack Davenport), the only person capable of taking Law’s place in Damon’s affections, only for their chance of happiness to be snatched away by a cruel trick of fate. Terrific, Oscar-caliber support by Gwyneth Paltrow and Philip Seymour Hoffman (as Law’s fiancee and best friend, respectively); beautiful, classy production values throughout. Followed by RIPLEY’S GAME (2002).

“Over the Hedge” Movie Review
“Over the Hedge” Plot Summary
A scheming raccoon fools a mismatched family of forest creatures into helping him repay a debt of food, by invading the new suburban sprawl that popped up while they were hibernating…and learns a lesson about family himself.
Sometimes the simplest stories make the best films
My low expectations were floored by a great adventure a la DreamWorks a simple adventure about survival in which a raccoon ‘accidentally’ steals and loses all provisions belonging to a ferocious bear, whom then threatens him and demands he replenish every item of food lost within one week or else he will suffer the consequences. Over the Hedge thus sees RJ the raccoon (Bruce Willis) scour the environment in search for goods, a mission that is facilitated when RJ comes across a mismatched family of forest creatures whom he convinces to help him gather the food he needs from the Suburbian residences just over the hedge
The film opens with RJ on a scrat-like adventure after that-one-piece-of-food and he suffers all the detours and diversion that this mission entails. As is the meticulous animation style of DreamWorks, it lacks the rewarding simplicity of Blue Sky Studios (Ice Age) and does not quite achieve the same level of hilarity and laughter that the latter effortlessly elicits. It even mimics the possum playing dead from Ice Age: The Meltdown which evokes more raised eyebrows than anything. At this point I am also noticing that Willis’ voice is much too muzzled and unremarkable to be lent to a protagonist. Although, Nick Nolte makes for a fine bear villain
Soon ‘Over the Hedge’ thankfully abandons mediocrity and completely stuns me with layered humour and an energy that it begins to apply to all aspects in the film, the hyper-active ADHD squirrel Hammy most of all. It spirals into an enjoyable romp evenly peppered with 1) goofy light laughs for kids (courtesy of Hammy the squirrel), 2) balanced gags-for-all such as the hilarious zealot exterminator who botches his way through the tracking down of the pesky vermin and 3) sophisticated humour and interwoven references from Citizen Kane, A Streetcar Named Desire and Dr Phil. It is a perfect amalgam of different sorts of comedy and blends and balances its content with deft strokes. Granted, the story neatly ticks off cliches from a formula but it does so skillfully
Indeed there is a surprising amount of sophistication to be found when you weed through all the standard spoofs. Specifically the film directs social commentary on humans’ and animals’ eating habits as RJ remarks how ‘We eat to live. Humans live to eat.’ It juxtaposes these lifestyles when the forest family teams up to assault the neighbourhood in which larger-than-life boxes and packets of nachos, donuts and popcorn are abundant and the shiny silver fridge is Mecca. In the midst of the food-heists there is much action to be found in the form of vibrant, kinetic chases, shooting rockets and acrobatic stunts over the hedge. It is even a bit chaotic toward the end but a great slow-motion capture ties the pacing together
The aforementioned render ‘Over the Hedge’ a very alive film and its action alone rightfully vaults it into ‘Great Animated Comedies’ status. It is no Shrek, but it’s extremely enjoyable. Like Shrek however, DreamWorks provides for the crisp, aesthetically-intoxicating animation of nature whose every screenshot is so picturesque that you just want to snap a picture of, frame and hang in on your wall. What’s more is that its heist-oriented core with its mandatory sense of immediate danger tingling in the air is something of what Mike Tyson was the boxing in the 1980’s: A safe bet.8 out of 10

“Back to the Future” Plot Summary
In 1985, Doc Brown invents time travel; in 1955, Marty McFly accidentally prevents his parents from meeting, putting his own existence at stake.
the best 80s film ever.
This film is just one of a kind. The charm and wit are so good it will have you wonder how they came up with such a concept, Michael J Fox is at his best as are the rest of the cast. Humour,comedy, science fiction, this film has it all. This film will remain timeless,I would urge anyone who loves films to add this one to their list now. The special effects are still great looking and look far better then most effects today, your heart will still be in your mouth when Marty races towards the clock tower in a bid to get struck by lightning, this is a film you will watch again and again and will always put a smile on your face.

“Resident Evil 2″ Plot Summary
After an outbreak in a top-secret facility, Umbrella ponders on covering up their mistakes by releasing the deadly Nemesis to eliminate surviving STARS members in Raccoon City.
THE funniest movie i have ever seen
*Spoiler Alert* (coincidentally can you spoil crap?) Where on earth to start…oh my, I’m trying to sit here with my friend and figure out how to best describe the utter stupidity presented in this movie…truly a waste of the breath in my lungs…OK, lets start with one of the main characters, Alice whom my friend and I repeatedly referred to as ‘Boomer’ because of her ability to constantly amaze us. This name is merely an understatement, as we are presented with multiple encounters of seemingly ‘near death’ situations in which she quickly devises some witty plan, gains the strength of an ox, the agility of a rabid bunny, and the brain capacity of Stephen Hawking. One incident in particular is the scene in which ‘boomer’ valiantly smashes through an assembly of stained glass windows on her motorcycle and carefully times her departure from the vehicle in the form of a triple back-flip, projecting the motorcycle at high speeds towards the apparently ‘bullet-fast’ creature within the building’s confines, only for the motorcycle to attain a vertical position along the creatures’ abdomen, turning perfectly, exposing the ‘ever-so-small’ gas tank, allowing ‘boomer’ an effortless, but nonetheless accurate shot at the flammable contents of the tank, and thus ‘efficiently’ dispatching this foul creature from existence… With her flawless perfection of shot, and ample bosom, how could anyone despise this movie…for laughs. Certainly not for actual enjoyment
This movie was so bad, i purged in an empty popcorn container, forgot about it, picked up the container once again, and proceeded to name the individual ingredients i recognized as food, and formulated names for things that looked supernatural. That was a much more fulfilling use of my time than watching this crappy flick.

“Hunger” Movie Review
“Hunger” Plot Summary
The last six weeks of the life of the Irish republican hunger striker Bobby Sands.
Grim but Good
Film about IRA hunger striker Bobby Sands in 1981 but although the film is bookended by some on screen text that puts it in its historical and political context, it is mostly concerned with the actions of the individuals involved the guards and the prisoners
For the majority of the film there is hardly any speech, you just see the very grim day-to-day reality – except for the key scene of the film which is a conversation between Sands and a priest which is done in two long, unmoving takes
It’s quite a powerful film, and very hard to watch in places. It reminded me of ‘Downfall’ in some ways a good film but not one I’d want to see again anytime soon.

“Back to the Future 3″ Plot Summary
Enjoying a peaceable existence in 1885, Doctor Emmet Brown is about to be killed by Buford “Mad Dog” Tannen. Marty McFly travels back in time to save his friend. add synopsis
If the me of the future is now in the past…
This is the best of the three Back to the Future movies. Two was a hodgepodge impossible to follow without a ’schematic’, but this one is enjoyable on all levels. No fancy anything, just a few good actors in a lovely part of the country enjoying their time together and producing a really good film for the rest of us.
The lighting and cinematography are great, the historical details interesting, the plot fun, and the geography just plain confusing. What’s with ‘Devil’s Tower’ in the background of the drive in? Isn’t that like, somewhere in Nevada or something? It sure would be, ‘a hell of a long hike back to Hill Valley!’ Oh well, who cares? Marty has also gained some weight swooshing through the time portal this go around, but again, who cares? Michael Fox has said that ‘living happened’ between the production of these three movies, his son was born, his father died…he must have been thinking about time indeed.
Thank you all who made this excellent film.

“Brother Bear” Movie Review
“Brother Bear” Plot Summary
A young Inuit hunter seeks vengence against a bear, only to be magically changed into a bear himself, and his only chance to change back is with a talkative bear cub. add synopsis
A breath of fresh air.
No, it’s not one of those older Disney ‘classics,’ but I loved the film to death. It has believable characters, beautiful animation, a good storyline, decent music, and best of all (or at least, the most refreshing of all) is that its humour and dialogue aren’t overdone like you see so often. It has good messages and memorable scenes
As far as a plot overview, if you don’t want your children to see a ‘gorey’ movie, despite a lack of blood and apparent injury, you should stay away from this film. Within the first fifteen minutes, both the main character’s older brother and a bear die. The movie also accepts occult ideas concerning religion, as there are spirits that live in the sky rather than a single god (which are capable of creating great changes) and instances where it embraces the idea of karma. But overall, this movie is as cute and cuddly as the bears it follows. It won’t screw up your kids
The animation in this film is beautiful. I’m a fan of the old style of drawing it on paper, then inking, then painting, as opposed to all of this Pixar-style crap Disney’s been spewing out lately (and no, Pixar movies are good, but Disney CGI films are baaaad). This style is all but dead, and Brother Bear is supposedly the second to last film to be hand-drawn. Appreciate it
I admit that some of the music was a bid… odd. Phil Collins, being the main player in that department, does a decent job singing, but the lyrics were kind of, well, stupid. The best song is the one sung in Inuit, if that makes a difference
I don’t want to say more in case you’re reading this despite the spoiler warning. The bottom line is, this movie is great. I love it. It’s one of my favourite Disney movies, and trust me, it’s much better than you may think if you’re of the belief it’s just another ‘get rich quick’ film. Buy it, watch it with your kids, and enjoy it. You won’t be disappointed.
