    “Ghostbusters II” Plot Summary

    The discovery of a massive river of ectoplasm and a resurgence of spectral activity allows the staff of Ghostbusters to revive the business. add synopsis

    Great plot, fab characters, brill movie sequel!

    I saw this film before I saw the original, and found that on its own, it was a great movie. The story was original, but gripping, and there was plenty more comedy thrown in by Bill Murray than in the original. The problem with sequels is that people compare them to the magic and novelty of the original. Usually they are just as good, if not better. And if this film had been released on its own, it would have been as smash-hit as the original.

    “Snakes on a Plane” Plot Summary

    An FBI agent takes on a plane full of deadly and poisonous snakes, deliberately released to kill a witness being flown from Honolulu to Los Angeles to testify against a mob boss. add synopsis

    Enjoyable Flight

    Another brilliant film from my most favourite director David R. Ellis after Final Destination 2 & Cellular. Snakes on a Plane is definitely one of my most favourite movies and the best film of 2006. Their has already been a lot of films with snakes like Anaconda, King Cobra and Python but they are all rubbish and with no story. This movie is nothing like them it has an amazing story and it’s very relentless. Samuel L. Jackson’s acting as usual was terrific and his line ‘Enough is enough! I have had it with these mother f**king snakes on this mother f**king plane!’ is a trademark of the film just like ‘I’ll be back’ in The Terminator. The rest of the actors are all new and not very well known but the boy who is the witness he was in Wolf Creek, the young blonde air hostess in first class was the alien Sarah in Species 3 and the girl in the bathroom with another boy was in Final Destination 3 one of the girls in the sun bed. It was about 1 hour 40 minutes and I enjoyed every second of it. I don’t know which the best scene is because it was good right from start to end and it is the kind of film that can be watched again & again. My verdict is 20/10.

    “Ghost Busters” Movie Review

    “Ghostbusters” Plot Summary

    Three unemployed parapsychology professors set up shop as a unique ghost removal service.

    Comedy Classic

    The 1980s was a decade known for its variety of unique entertainment, especially in film. As a child, I was raised on these movies, but none stand out more than that of Ghostbusters (1984). While not the most sophisticated piece of cinema to come out of that decade, it still stands as one of the most iconic. From the jumpsuits to the sigma, Ghostbusters made a permanent mark on popular entertainment. What makes the movie a classic comedy are not the iconic costumes and props, but the interactions between the Ghostbusters themselves

    Each character has their own mold, which they fit into. Starting off, Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis) portrays a typical scientist; dry, humorless and an avid collector of spores, molds and fungus. Although also highly intelligent, Ray Stantz (Dan Akroyd) plays the dimwit of the group with a major lack in common sense or just sense in general. This is blatantly apparent during the scene which he purchases a junker car that needs a plethora of tune-ups and replacements, but only cost them $4800. Peter Venkmen, played by Bill Murray, is a sarcastic quick-wit who plays off both Egon’s seriousness and Ray’s stupidity. Winston Zeddmore (Ernie Hudson) completes the Ghostbuster team by being the new guy with zero experience in paranormal investigation, yet still manages to fit in due to the remainder of the team’s lack of professionalism

    Despite their unprofessional methods, the Ghostbusters still make good business and Venkmen is even able to get a date with customer Dana Barrett (Sigourney Weaver). Things go awry though when Barrett is possessed by the evil demons haunting her apartment and from here, the movie takes off into a hilarious yet apocalyptic direction. This in itself is another reason why Ghostbusters is such a good comedy

    Speaking for myself, when I hear terms such as ‘Armageddon’ or ‘Judgment Day,’ hilarity usually does not ensue. However, these elements are very prevalent yet the movie still garners countless laughs. This occurs for two reasons. The first being the brilliant script written by Harold Ramis and Dan Akroyd who, as mentioned before, star in the film. The second can be accredited to Bill Murray’s trademark smug, sarcastic persona. One moment which comes to mind when Murray portrays this ideally is when he shares quips with the demon possessed Barrett. Murray’s acting and mannerisms supply the comedic lifeblood to the script like no other actor could

    As stated above, Ghostbusters is not the most serious of films, but during some parts it can be a little too corny. This is most apparent during the scene where the frightening demons are finally seen on screen in clay animation, also known as ‘claymation’. I realize the film came out before movies featured giant spectacular effects; however I think by 1984 other options existed. Another minor gripe I have with the film is the acting done by Weaver during her demon possessed state. I really do not know how someone is supposed to act in such a state, but the entire scene where Dana, while being demon possessed, was talking to Ray felt a bit awkward. Her heavy panting came off as more of a person suffering from an asthma attack than a hellacious demon. However, do not let these two minor complaints stop you from enjoying this classic comedy

    Looking at the film with a realistic point of view, Ghostbusters is a movie about four men trying to prevent Judgment Day from occurring due to two people’s demonic possessions. In actuality, the movie is based around four guys who enjoy their job and make light of even the grimmest of situations. For those who disagree with this; I have only one statement: ‘Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.’

    “Ace Ventura: Pet Detective” Movie Review

    “Ace Ventura” Plot Summary

    A goofy detective specializing in animals goes in search of a missing dolphin mascot of a football team. add synopsis

    Funny, Funny, Funny

    Here it is, folks: the movie that made ‘Jim Carrey’ a household name overnight–’Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.’ Although the movie’s silly, crude, and often very childish, I still love the damn thing to death. It’s a classic. Just one of those movies that you know’s great but can’t accurately describe why. Maybe because Jim Carrey’s the only actor on earth who can pull Ace Ventura off without looking like a complete jackass. Yeah, I think that’s it. Can you think of any other actor on earth who could bend over, talk through his rectum, and still manage being funny and make sense? That’s what Carrey does here. Ace Ventura is obnoxious, but he makes sense and solves complex cases; he’s no idiot. The plot’s pretty good for a silly movie. Ace Ventura is hired by the beautiful Melissa Robinson (Courtney Cox) of the Miami Dolphins to retrieve their missing mascot dolphin–Snowflake

    This movie practically made Carrey a superstar overnight. (And even resulted in a funny but inferior sequel entitled–’Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls.’) Had this not been made, we’d of never experienced the hilarity of ‘Dumb and Dumber’ or ‘The Mask.’ Jim Carrey’s a comedic genius. I miss the Dumb and Dumber/Mask era, when Carrey was in his prime and never took himself or his audiences too seriously.3 and a half stars
