“Titanic” Movie Review
“Titanic” Plot Summary
Fictional romantic tale of a rich girl and poor boy who meet on the ill-fated voyage of the ‘unsinkable’ ship.
The triumph of contemporary tripe
The tragedy of the doomed ship Titanic has inspired many books and movies. The battle between nature and technology always caught man’s imagination. The latest film concerning this tragedy in the Atlantic Ocean was written and directed by famous action movie filmmaker James Cameron. The story of ‘Titanic’ involves two fictional characters (Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet) from different backgrounds (one is a hobo-artist, the other is an aristocrat) and how their love triumphs over societal barriers and the tragedy of a sinking ship that they happen to be on.
First of all, although using a historical name, this movie had little regard to history. The plot was built around two fictional lovers, French diamond, and treasure hunters. The deaths of over a thousand of people on the greatest luxury ship of its time became a mere background. Many historical facts were simply forgotten. Where was the radio operator that ignored the iceberg warnings? Why was there no mention of the ship that was only 5 miles away from the Titanic but did not come to the rescue because its captain failed to identify the distress signal? Omitting these facts is an insult to the tragedy. And what was the point of flavoring this historical disaster with fictional cheesy romance when the story is already as sad as it is.
The overall plot was rather shallow; rich equals greed and corruption, poverty equals compassion and heroism. It is very ironic to spend $200 million to make a movie about how money corrupts. There was absolutely no human side shown in anti-heroes. It seemed like Billy Zane was playing a part of the devil. Casting was also very poor. If DiCaprio was 2 inches shorter than Winslet, you could swear she was his baby-sitter. The length of the movie was unnecessarily stretched to over 3 hours. First hour and the half was wasted on establishing the relationships between the characters that were known to audience long before they went to theater and the dialogue that was used to do so made it even worse. Hearing corny pick up lines such as ‘I see you’ and ‘This is my side of the ship’ generated more pain than the screams of drowning people. Also, jokes were too abundant and rather lame.
‘Titanic’ did involve some moving scenes such as the part when the musicians were playing while the ship was sinking but they were no way near anything original. The best thing about this film were its special effects, and that is the only thing that truly deserved an award.
Although this film lacked artistical value in overall sense, the public could not resist a sentimental story starring Romeo (DiCaprio), and so the movie became a success. Now it is safe to say that the industry will be less hesitant to invest large amounts of money in a single motion picture, so it seems that ‘Titanic’ did achieve something after all.

“Alvin and the Chipmunks” Plot Summary
A struggling songwriter named Dave Seville finds success when he comes across a trio of singing chipmunks: mischievous leader Alvin, brainy Simon, and chubby, impressionable Theodore. add synopsis
Entertainment for all.
Forget the critics. This may not be greatest acting/script/etc but it is entertaining. I saw it at an 80% full session and the adults out-laughed the kids. I’m glad I went. Many small details for those like me who remember 1958. I have to admit that I like Jason Leee and he does a reasonable effort without being excessively silly. Ian played David Cross is a little over the top but this was acceptable to the adults and made it very easy for the youngest kids to understand. The animation of the Chipmunks was great, OK they did not look like real chipmunks but they did not look cartoonish like in Roger Rabbit. The story was reasonable and provided lots of laughs throughout which many ‘A’ grade comedies fail to do. In conclusion a ‘B’ grade family move which succeeds 100%’

“Death Proof” Movie Review
“Grindhouse: Death Proof” Plot Summary
Two separate sets of voluptuous women are stalked at different times by a scarred stuntman who uses his “death proof” cars to execute his murderous plans.
Excellent!!!
I haven’t the slightest idea why all of these guys are on here hating on this movie? Could it be that they are the type of guys who don’t care to hear women talk (at all)? I know were just supposed to look sexy and be completely helpless victims in horror flicks. Kicking ass is never supposed to be a woman’s job in a horror flick. You’ll definitely hear some girl talk in this flick. There will be some banter, bickering, laughing, loving, intellectual conversations and downright irrational conversations. You know ‘every day’ girl talk. Add this to some serious bone chilling/thrilling action and you’re all set to go. This is a completely brilliant film that will have you holding on to the edge of your seat. The soundtrack and the non CGI special effects are a special treat. Death Proof is one of my all time favorites.

“Signs” Movie Review
“Signs” Plot Summary
A family living on a farm finds mysterious crop circles in their fields which suggests something more frightening to come.
Great thriller!
The newest film in the legacy of M. Night Shyamalan, SIGNS manages to pull off some very effective creepiness in the very beginning and also holds your interesting throughout the course of the film. Mel Gibson is great, aswell as Joaquin Phoenix. The film was very creepy and contains steadily mounting terror. Vaguely similar to Mark Pellington’s THE MOTHMAN PROPHECIES, the film keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
The film is scary and in some cases, disturbing. The aliens are very well designed. The film actually surprised me. I was not expecting Shyamalan to stick with the story so very closely throughout the entire film almost. With his earlier works, THE SIXTH SENSE and UNBREAKABLE, he focuses on the relationships between family members very closely to create a lot of drama that has a payoff. But, most of this film is taken up by fast-moving situations that involve alien activity and crop circles. My only complaint, and I mean ‘only’, is that the film tries way too hard to be funny. It tries much harder than Shyamalan’s earlier works and is the type of humor that is not ‘laugh-out-loud’, but it is funny because you were not expecting it in a sci-fi suspense thriller. The sequences of the film that are scary, ARE scary. They could have been a little more effectively done, but otherwise, they were very well-crafted. SIGNS is a great movie that will live in movie history forever in both the genres of thriller and sci-fi. SIGNS gets 5/5.

“Taken” Movie Review
“Taken” Plot Summary
A former spy relies on his old skills to save his estranged daughter, who has been forced into the slave trade.
A pleasant surprise
Quite a surprise to see such a good movie highly ignored. The film is shot similar to the Bourne movies but carves out it’s own niche. Great job by Neeson who once again proves that he can basically do any role and is highly underrated. The premise of the movie is simple and the action starts out with a bang. I just wish the release date would be the same in the United States as abroad. Supporting cast is solid
Action seens ae intense and much more realistic then what is normally shot. I think this could have had a very good theatrical run but being released so early in other countries means it will just be pirated. Hopefully we’ll get to see a sequel but I doubt it. Check it out you won’t be sorry.
