“Casino Royale” Movie Review
“Casino Royale” Plot Summary
In his first mission, James Bond must stop Le Chiffre, a banker to the world’s terrorist organizations, from winning a high-stakes poker tournament at Casino Royale in Montenegro.
Bond with a touch of the the Bourne supremacy
I saw this at a special premiere and i was amazed. having never been a Bond fan i wasn’t really expecting much from this. After watching Brosnans invisible car in the previous incarnation I thought it could only get worse. How wrong was I! this film is gritty and sharp. the dialogue is sharp and well thought out with Daniel Craig being the DEFINITIVE Bond. He exudes confidant menace. They have gone back to basics with this Bond ie character and dialogue driven and not thankfully gadget driven. Not only is it the best bond film out so far its one of the years best films out. They have borrowed some elements from the Bourne series of films which is long overdue on the franchise, more realistic fight sequences and with Daniel Craig actually looking like a physically capable man instead of the middle aged paunch of Roger Moore and Pierce Brosnan who both quite frankly couldn’t beat up a Ritz cracker.

“The Chronicles of Riddick” Movie Review
“The Chronicles of Riddick” Plot Summary
5 years after Pitch Black, the wanted criminal Riddick arrives on a planet called Helion Prime, and finds himself up against an invading empire called the Necromongers, an army that plans to convert or kill all humans in the universe.
Great action, great story, great effects
Great film. I really liked it, being a great fan of Pitch Black (2000). The universe of Riddick is really impressive and way different from the (boring and predictable) other sci-fi titles nowadays (except, maybe Firefly).
Vin Diesel’s character is very well explored in this movie and I guess this is the only Vin Diesel performance that I enjoyed at all. The Necromongers are a very curious and interesting ‘race’ (they have an evil charm, something like the Borgs) and I would like to see more of them and more about Riddick’s past
And I really liked the twist at the ending. I can’t wait to see the third movie of the franchise (if it ever gets released, I hope so).

“GoldenEye” Movie Review
“GoldenEye” Plot Summary
James Bond teams up with the lone survivor of a destroyed Russian research center to stop the hijacking of a nuclear space weapon by a fellow agent believed to be dead. add synopsis
Excellent Bond film and Brosnan’s best outing
Six years passed between the release of ‘Licence to Kill’ and ‘GoldenEye’, Pierce Brosnan’s debut as Bond, and those six years were clearly beneficial to the franchise. ‘GoldenEye’ has its fair share of flaws, but it feels revitalized and fresh, unlike the film it follows, ‘Licence to Kill’, a lethargic offering that was deservedly the lowest grossing Bond film when adjusted for inflation. ‘GoldenEye’ makes a clean break from previous franchise films, becoming self-aware for the first time and taking on an almost revisionist feel by casting Judi Dench as M and having her call Bond a ’sexist, misogynist dinosaur’. Even the Bond girls are in no way dependent on Bond- if you count the villain she was clearly the uh… ‘dominant’ half of that relationship, and even the ‘good’ girl bossed Bond around. In a way this is refreshing to see, and Brosnan fits the part excellently, never losing his composure, always with a witty one-liner to throw back. The main reason I like Brosnan a lot better than Moore is that he doesn’t take the ‘class’ act too far. He’s classy, charming, witty, but also cruel and ruthless when he needs to be. I don’t see the validity of the claims that he was the wimpiest Bond; he’s got far more physicality than Moore and a much harder edge, generally speaking. ‘GoldenEye’ does have its flaws, of course. The film could have been a whole 20 minutes shorter, the musical score is not one of the best of the franchise (but not nearly as bad as some suggest), and the humor, outside of Brosnan’s one-liners, falls flat most of the time. I’m also not sure about the huge emphasis on technology, which is taken too far at times here, and would be taken even farther into the land of the completely ridiculous later in the series. Then again, it was the mid-90’s and technology was a hot topic. The film handles its subject matter well for the most part. The film’s action set-pieces are terrific and the sets look beautiful. One of the things that impressed me most about ‘GoldenEye’ is that when it went for drama it succeeded reasonably well. Sean Bean and Famke Janssen make a terrific team of villains and Martin Campbell keeps the film moving at a swift pace, drastically improving on John Glen’s work in ‘Licence to Kill’.'GoldenEye’ may not be the best Bond film, but it’s a welcome addition to the series. Brosnan is not as good a Bond as Connery at his best, but he’s on par with Lazenby and Dalton, if not better, and most certainly better than Roger Moore. 20 minutes shorter and ‘GoldenEye’ could have been an absolute classic, but as it is it’s an excellent Bond offering and one of the better Bond films. The title song is terrific, isn’t it?8/10

“Shakespeare in Love” Movie Review
“Shakespeare in Love” Plot Summary
A young Shakespeare, out of ideas and short of cash, meets his ideal woman and is inspired to write one of his most famous plays.
This movie is my favorite film of all time.
The first time I went to see ‘Shakespeare in Love,’ I went because the commercials on television were hilarious. So, I went to see it opening day (Christmas), but that isn’t extremely special because I see movies on holidays as a rule. When I left the theatre, I was in love with the film, and the more I thought about the more I loved it. Later that day, I went to see ‘The Prince of Egypt’ and ‘Stepmom.’ Really bad and decent, respectively. I thought of them in comparison to ‘Shakespeare in Love,’ and they got worse and worse and ‘Shakespeare in Love’ got better and better
And why shouldn’t it? Gwyneth Paltrow turns out an amazing performance especially since she is using an accent, speaking in verse, and playing four parts (Viola, Thomas, Romeo, and Juliet). She is also phenomenal in the way she can switch from being horridly funny to evoking tears. Joseph Fiennes no less of an actor than she. He brings such life to someone seen as a god to many and he is so believable as this writing giant. Geoffery Rush is absolutely hilarious as Mr. Henslowe. I must say that he will make you roll in the aisles. Then of course there is Judi Dench, who has a meek 8 and a half minutes of screentime but is so awesome that she won Best Supporting Actress. And last, there is Ben Affleck, who also has a small role as Ned Alleyn (the prima donna of the group), but will make you laugh so hard that you will beg for mercy. I’m really not kidding, he has the best lines
Now, if performances aren’t enough to make you see it, there are the costumes. Or the music. The music has to be one of the best scores I’ve ever heard. Or there’s the fights (yes, there are fights in a Shakespearean film), which are hilarious, tense, and full of suspense
So, if I’ve been able to laugh at every joke all fourteen (yes, you read it correctly, 14) times that I’ve seen ‘Shakespeare in Love,’ I think you’ll enjoy it at least once.

wonderful movie :)
First I borrowed this movie from videostore And loved it so much that soon I bought the DVD so I could watch it again. That’s how much i love it. I truly regret not watching it, while it was in the cinemas, it would have been great to see it on the big screen. This movie has everything: humanity, love, magic (and gorgeous cinematography), comedy, sadness, great acting. There is depth and strength to the characters in the movie. The costumes and special effects are great too. I loved the acting and how all these story lines were woven into a beautiful, delightful fable. This movie has got the heart. The music is beautiful too, it is so enchanting. It is so wonderful and bittersweet, like chocolate for the soul :) I strongly recommend it

“Tomorrow Never Dies” Movie Review
“Tomorrow Never Dies” Plot Summary
James Bond heads to stop a media mogul’s plan to induce war between China and the UK in order to obtain exclusive global media coverage. add synopsis
Perfect!
When I received every movie in the James Bond DVD collection (the one with seven movies) for my birthday except for The Man with The Golden Gun, there were three movies in the set that I hadn’t seen. The first one I checked out was Tomorrow Never Dies, and I loved it. Our piece of trash DVD player kept freezing, but I managed to watch the whole thing to the end. The movie kicks off with Bond investigating a terrorist arms market somewhere in Russia and has to escape being blown up by a missile launched by a ship at sea. This scene is great, and after the cool animations and the pretty good theme song by Sheryl Crow, things really start to heat up. Media mogul Elliot Carver, played excellently by Jonathan Pryce, is bent on starting an entire news network that reports nothing but bad news. Carver is trying to get Britain and China to attack each other and start a new world war. All this is great, but there are a few disappointments. For one, I think Paris Carver should have been given more time in the movie. Her character could really have played a great part in the end. There also should have been another action scene or two sandwiched somewhere in the movie. However, this is a still great movie that I recommend. 4 stars out of 5.
