“Kung Fu Panda” Movie Review
“Kung Fu Panda” Plot Summary
In the Valley of Peace, Po the Panda finds himself chosen as the Dragon Warrior despite the fact that he is obese and a complete novice at martial arts.
Exceptionaly visual, funny, action packed and intelligent movie for all ages.
One of the best comedy movies I’ve seen, this animation feature is both packed with action and intelligent at the same time. It’s yet another variation on ‘You can do anything if you believe in yourself’ and carries strong morale and educational message. But the way it’s done, the incredible visual side of the story, as well as the dialogs, is just exceptional. You can’t but love the fat Panda boy who’s dreaming about being the greatest warrior of all China only to wake up to the reality of hawing to serve noodle soup in his father’s shop. Unlike his father, who also dreamed but never found the courage to act on it, Panda follows his calling and by ‘luck’ get chosen to be the legendary Dragon warrior by the Kung-Fu grand master, the old turtle, to defeat the evil tiger. That’s when his training and troubles start. It’s really for anyone between 3 and 100 and I laughed and loved it from the titles in the beginning to the very end. Much recommended.

“Commando” Movie Review
“Commando” Plot Summary
A retired elite commando has only a few hours to find and rescue his daughter from an exiled dictator.
Probably the best action film.
Commando is in my mind the best action film out there to date, this movie was made 14 years ago and no other film can push it out of first position
The film got everything: a great looking Arnold, extremely fine music by James Horner and great settings for the action scenes. It`s a great ride of perfection when it comes to entertaining action fans. Rae Dawn Chong and Alyssa Milano gives fine performances as well.

“Mulan” Movie Review
“Mulan” Plot Summary
To save her father from death in the army, a Chinese maiden secretly goes in his place and becomes one of China’s greatest heroes in the process. add synopsis
Delightful Animated Girl Hero who Breaks with Disney Traditions
‘Mulan’ is not quite a chick flick and it’s much better than ‘Pochantas.’ It has terrific animation and I forgot I was even watching animation. The script has some funny lines. The music is not great (the writers didn’t ring any bells with me as to their past work) but good lyrics. I was disappointed that the music wasn’t as Asianish as ‘Lion King’ is Africanish. And the final rap is a bit off-putting, though the segue into the Stevie Wonder song was fun
Eddie Murray isn’t Robin Williams but he’s fun. At least they do use quite a few Asian actors’ voices – Wing Na Wen (‘E.R.’), George Takei (‘Star Trek’), B.D. Wong (‘Oz’) Pat Morita (‘Karate Kid’). I think ‘Mulan’ is the first Disney animation post-Katzenberg and there’s a couple of digs at him and responses to the criticisms of how he did the girl stars. There was a lot of criticism of how Katzenberg personally insisted on Jasmine in ‘Aladdin’s impossible Barbie shape and ‘Mulan’ takes that on with a line about how stupid it is to want such a narrow waist. Definitely a much more positive body image movie than under the Katzenberg regime. There’s no dead mother syndrome here, well for Mulan anyway. The Captain’s mother isn’t mentioned. Not only is there a mom, but even a grandmom. The father is still Freudian – he’s wounded. All the Disney dads of daughters have some incapacity or other or tragic flaw
Refreshingly, there’s no wedding at the end with birds chirping as a canopy. The courting is assumed and the grandmom invites the captain to live there forever–but Mulan shuts her up. (originally written 7/23/1998)

“Hero” Movie Review
“Accidental Hero” Plot Summary
A not-so-nice man rescues passengers from a crashed airliner, only to see someone else take credit. add synopsis
A Very Good Film
I found this little gem in the bargain bin and liked the theme, so I thought I’d give it a try. And it more than delivered
Here is a truly thoughtful satire that considers what it really means to be a ‘hero’. More important, it seeks to find the heroic in everyday peoples’ actions in the midst of a media culture that is constantly on the lookout for genuine heroes and, finding none, manufactures grandiose imitations instead
The theme of heroism is everywhere in this film, and it might even sound like it is preaching a bit at times, particularly in Andy Garcia’s final monologue on the subject. But it all comes together quite well and ends with a lot of heart. The acting is superb, the screenplay is focused, and I was amazed how well Hero combines the entertainment of fiction with the thoughtfulness of a documentary. If you are interested in the theme of heroism I would highly recommend this film. 9/10.

“Amistad” Movie Review
“Amistad” Plot Summary
About a 1839 mutiny aboard a slave ship that is traveling towards the northeastern coast of America. Much of the story involves a court-room drama about the free man who led the revolt. add synopsis
A beautiful film about the struggle to keep our most basic rightfreedom
This film is so moving, I’m having trouble coming up with the appropriate words to describe it. It goes without saying that Spielberg’s direction is nothing short of spectacular. I was thoroughly engrossed in the movie throughout. The realism of the scenes on the slave ship speak volumes. And the performances given by Matthew McConaughey and Anthony Hopkins were some of the best of their respective careers. And Djimon Hounsou (Cinque) touched me to the core depths of my heart. The conversation between him and his friend about the Bible was particularly poignant. But I could go on for pages and still not say enough about this film
VERDICT: An emotional and heart-wrenching film that has the power to move the most cynical of hearts. HIGHLY recommended to all.9.0 out of 10.0

“Tango & Cash” Movie Review
“Tango and Cash” Plot Summary
Two cops are framed and must clear their names. add synopsis
A great action comedy.
Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell star as Ray Tango and Gabe Cash. This is the first time these 2 action stars have appeared on screen together. They both have good chemistry together and there are many funny one-liners. Tango and Cash are rival cops who ends up on the same case, but they’re both framed for murder. They lose their case and end up in jail, even worse they end up in general population after being switched overnight.
This was set up by a man who wants Tango and Cash off the streets because they’re the two toughest cops. Tango and Cash team up to break out of prison and find the man who framed them. The movie has plenty of funny moments, great shooting and fighting scenes. This is over the top and cheesy at times, but a really good action movie. This is just about the only movie where Stallone is funny too. He plays a character much different from his usual characters. Sly and Kurt Russell are 2 of the best action stars and they make a great duo. The movie also features a 25 year old Teri Hatcher who looks much better than she does now.
The cast is great, the movie is action-packed and the film is funny. This is very entertaining.

“Blade Runner” Movie Review
“Blade Runner” Plot Summary
Deckard, a blade runner, has to track down and terminate 4 replicants who hijacked a ship in space and have returned to earth seeking their maker.
The Best of the Best
Ridley Scott’s film Blade Runner is, quite simply, the most awe-inspiring and breathtaking film made to this date. The opening shots of the movie will be permanently burned into your memory. This film has made such an impact on movie-making that it is almost impossible that another science fiction film can be made without any influence from this movie. The compelling story, the terrific direction and editing from frame to frame, and most of all, the cinematography will blow you away. The cast is perfect, each bringing something wonderful to their characters that you’ll forever remember them from this performance. Rutger Hauer in particular shines, stealing the film with every scene he’s in. This film should be on every top 10 list out there. Movie magic at its best!
