“Jurassic Park” Movie Review
“JP” Plot Summary
During a preview tour, a theme park suffers a major power breakdown that allows its cloned dinosaur exhibits to run amok.
I LOVE this movie!
This film is easily one of my favorite movies. I saw this movie when it came out in theaters back in 1993; I was only 9-years-old and, though some scenes scared the crap out of me, it blew me away. I was amazed at how, for the first time in a movie, I felt like I was watching REAL dinosaurs. For those who haven’t seen this movie (there are people like that?), it centers on a billionaire’s attempt to create a new amusement park on an isolated island creating bio-engineered dinosaurs; when a group of specialists are brought in to examine the park, things go terribly wrong
I absolutely loved the story of this film; I loved it so much I had my parents buy me Michael Crichton’s novel and I read it 3 times through the course of my fifth grade year. It was then that I fell in love with the work of Crichton and found myself reading the rest of his work. While, yes, the movie did divert pretty heavily from the book, I still felt it was a great adaptation. It’s Spielberg’s version of Crichton’s story, so I don’t mind the mass differences. The movie is much more family-friendly than Crichton’s novel and I would love to see a another version eventually, a darker version that sticks closer to Crichton’s novel. Unlike most instances when I can say ‘The book was better’ or ‘The movie was better’, I don’t feel the need in this case because they were both fantastic
The cast did a terrific job. Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Richard Attenborough…all were great in their roles. Though my favorite performance came from Jeff Goldblum as Dr. Ian Malcolm, the arrogant chaos theoretician. I’ve been a fan of Goldblum for a while and I thought he was the perfect choice for the role in this movie. Of course, I have to rave a bit about the film’s special effects. As I mentioned before, this film contains probably the most realistic dinosaurs seen in cinema. A seamless combination of practical animatronics and CGI were used to bring the dinosaurs to life. By now, the effects seem a little dated but they continue to stand strong even now, 15 years later
This movie is one of those films that every must see. It grossed $350 million in the US alone. The film marked yet another milestone in special effects in cinema. And most importantly, it’s just entertaining.

“The Life Aquatic” Plot Summary
With a plan to exact revenge on a mythical shark that killed his partner, oceanographer Steve Zissou rallies a crew that includes his estranged wife, a journalist, and a man who may or may not be his son. add synopsis
Absolutely Brilliant
The thing that some people forget is that Wes Anderson co-wrote the script. the Life Aquatic is quite possibly one of the most original movies i have ever seen, and, personally, i loved every aspect of it. The score was spectacular, mixing Bowies actual recordings with the Portugese covers of Sue Jorge was ingenious. In my opinion the story bares some resemblance to that of Moby Dick, in that the main character is the Capitan of a ship and is bent on finding a sea creature for, at first, revenge… but draw your own comparisons
All in all, the movie was stellar and grabbed my attention from beginning to end, although, it is definitely one of those films that you either like or dislike, and i obviously liked it. I recommend seeing it even if your friends say that its bad, i only rented it in the first place because it was all they had at Video Connection one lonely Friday night and i needed something to watch, and all of my friends, none of whom know what their talking about, trashed it never the less i found it beautiful, hilarious, and over-all an absolutely stunning work of art by Mr. Wes Anderson… also, if you saw it and liked it, you should check out the Royal Tenenbaums, also directed by Anderson, it is almost as good as the Life Aquatic.

“Independence Day” Movie Review
“ID4″ Plot Summary
The aliens are coming and their goal is to invade and destroy. Fighting superior technology, Man’s best weapon is the will to survive.
Great sci-fi movie
Since it’s release in theaters 11 years ago, Independence Day has taken a lot heat. While I personally disagree that this movie is so horrible, it is easy to beat up the film seeing that its directed by one of the most boring directors of our time, Roland Emmerich
However, I believe this is his finest work. The first act is all about the build-up of the alien invasion and the attacks. This takes about fifty minutes, which also develops many (too many) characters and their places in the apocalypse
The attacks are good, but it is not unexpected. The special effects give it its credibility, and the second act begins the day after
In the wake of the devastation, mankind is limping on to survive, all main characters personally affected in someway by the attacks. While everybody does a good job bringing out the emotional side of the attacks, Will Smith is the only one that degrades this. After battling the aliens and failing, he has a close encounter with an alien and reacts unrealistically, punching it and sarcastically greeting it. Then he’s dragging it through the desert, screaming at it because he is missing a barbecue. HELLO?!? This is an alien race far superior to our own and it has single handedly brought mankind to its knees, and all he can do is yell at it for ruining his day? His performance is plausible but not his role. Thank God this is the only thing that I did not like in the second act
After Will Smith brings the alien to a secret alien research facility in Area 51, the doctors decide to perform an autopsy. The autopsy scene is a classic. It is probably the best sci-fi scene I have EVER seen. It could fit into a 50’s classic, and makes the movie so great
At the end of the second act, they finally figure out how to take down the alien’s shields and destroy their monster-sized spacecraft. This is where the lousy third act begins
July 4 is the opening of the third act, in which they round up as many pilots as possible. One is my least favorite character, a guy named Russell who claims he had been kidnapped by aliens 10 years earlier. The guy is lackadaisical cornball. He has one good line (Hello, boys. I’m back!!!!). All pilots around the world, including Russell will be in the ultimate battle. They will fight the alien ships while Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum plant a virus inside the mother ship. This is sadly the only interesting part of the third act, the rest of it from before being a cornball of cliches
The interior of the mother ship is so breathtaking, I actually found myself wishing somehow their ship would malfunction and they’d be stuck inside, forcing them to venture through the space frigate for about an hour in a style reminiscent to ‘Alien’. But seeing that the movie is already 2 1/2 hours, I guess they decided to not to
Jeff Goldblum’s and Will Smith’s chemistry work wonders while they’re in the mother ship, and every moment inside it is really good
The movie shortly ends after their departure from the mother ship, so it pretty much comes to a screeching halt. The world is still in ruins, and Emmerich leaves us to ponder how humanity will get back up
All in all, the movie manages perfectly for 81% of the movie. I would’ve given it a 9.0 if it weren’t for Will Smith’s comic relief in the second act, Russell, and mainly cliched third act. 8.1/10.

“The Prince of Egypt” Movie Review
“The Prince of Egypt” Plot Summary
An Egyptian prince learns of his identity as a Hebrew and, later his destiny to become the chosen deliverer of his people.
This movie is so moving
I was in tears and all emotional when I watched this movie. It’s not a movie only for Christian people to watch, I think this movie’s for anyone and I definitely recommend it. I used a whole box of my Kleenex and my eyes were so red by the end of the movie I freaked out myself. Honestly, people should make more movies like this, because nowadays, it’s all movies like where you forget what the movie is really about. And then couple of months later, you don’t even remember if you watched the movie or not. I don’t think that really makes sense there. But anyway this movie is really good! I’ve got the soundtrack and it’s really really good, watch the movie !!!
