“Paycheck” Movie Review
“Paycheck” Plot Summary
What seemed like a breezy idea for an engineer to net him millions of dollars, leaves him on the run for his life and piecing together why he’s being chased.
I liked it! A clever Sci-Fi thriller.
When I watch a movie like this, I don’t expect for anything to be ‘plausible’, because nothing is plausible in this type of Sc-Fi story. So I just check my ‘logic’ in the coat room and just sit back and, hopefully, enjoy. I enjoyed Ben Affleck as Michael Jennings, super smart ‘reverse engineer’ who can take apart and analyze a new, complicated contraption, and give plans to his employer to make their own, and go one or two steps better. For this he gets paid very well, and has the only additional requirement that he forget everything. And he does, they always see to that. The movie starts with one such job, just to establish the playing field, then the movie starts in earnest when his old friend, James (Aaron Eckhart), entices him to do a three year job that will get him a fee ‘in 8 figures.’ In the process he meets and flirts with pretty, smart Biologist Dr. Rachel Porter (Uma Thurman). Paul Giamatti has a nice role as his friend, Shorty
Almost 2 hours, it held my interest all the way
SPOILERS. Michael’s old friend James is up to no good. The project is a special ‘lens’ and computer system that can see in circular space, warping back on itself so that one can ’see’ into the future. We only are shown the beginning and end of the 3 years, nothing in between, except for some flashbacks later. His memory is erased, but when he goes to the bank to access his $90+ Million, he is told that he signed it away, and his package of personal effects don’t look familiar to him. Cut to the core story, as he was completing the project, he took a look into his future and saw he was to be killed by a bullet at the work site. So, knowing his memory would be erased, he sent a package to himself, with a number of seemingly unrelated items — a bullet, a bus pass, a BMW key, a fortune with a set of lottery numbers, etc. He was smart enough to realize these would be the key items to get him to change the future, stay alive, and avoid the destruction of the world. To do all that he had to get back in and destroy the computer, which he later found he had the wisdom earlier to put a bug into. And, in the end he gets the girl!

Brilliant Sci-Fi/Thriller, that really leaves you thinking, with an outstanding story and an incredible performance from Tom Cruise!
This is a brilliant Sci-Fi/Thriller, that really leaves you thinking, with an outstanding story and an incredible performance from Tom Cruise!. All the characters are wonderful and very likable, and it keeps you guessing throughout, plus Tom Cruise is simply incredible in this!. This is a movie that requires a lot of concentration, because it’s one of those films you have to pay strict attention too, and the plot is seriously awesome, plus one of my favorite moments in the film is when Cruise chases his own eyeballs!. This is up there with one of Spielberg’s best films and believe me he has done a lot of brilliant movies, and This is one of Cruise’s finest performances,plus it’s full of awesome twists and turns so don’t blink!. It’s extremely well made and written, and for once I agree with Roger Ebert’s review!, plus you will really root for Cruise’s character throughout. I loved those little mechanical spiders, and I thought that ending was just wicked! plus while i’m not a huge fan of Colin Farrell he did a fantastic job here and really impressed me!.Max Von Sydow was also excellent, and the special effects are simply stunning, plus the chase sequences are awesome as well!. I saw this a couple years ago and was unimpressed, however after upon 2nd viewing, I must say It deserves it’s praise, so if you didn’t care for it the 1st time, give it a second viewing, you may change your opinion
This should honestly be in the top 250 in my opinion, and there are some fantastic creepy moment as well, plus I loved the depressing atmosphere it had at times, and This is almost like The Fugitive except it’s set in the future, plus It also has some very funny scenes in it as well. Cruise had excellent chemistry with Samantha Morton, and I especially loved the dialog, plus some scenes really had me on the edge of my seat!. This is a brilliant Sci-Fi/thriller that really leaves you thinking, with an outstanding story and an incredible performance from Tom Cruise, and if you haven’t seen it, Do so immediately, you shouldn’t regret it
The Direction is spectacular!. Steven Spielberg does a spectacular job here with amazing camera work, fantastic angles, awesome use of blue,excellent lighting,great slow mo shots, and plenty of other uncanny shots as well, plus he kept the film at an extremely engrossing pace
The Acting is incredible!. Tom Cruise is amazing as always and is incredible here, he gives one of his finest performances, is extremely likable , blew me away in his emotional scenes, had great chemistry with Samantha Morton,as always had lots of charisma, and has really matured as an actor, and if you don’t think he can act watch this movie! (Cruise Rules!!!!!!!). Max Von Sydow is excellent here in his role, he brought tons of class, was especially good at the end, and had some awesome scenes with Cruise!, I loved him. Colin Farrell is fantastic here, I am not a big fan, but he certainly was good here, he held his own against Cruise, and really gave a good show I liked him a lot. Samantha Morton is awesome as the creepy psychic chick, she gave a great show, and had very good chemistry with Cruise. Lois Smith is good in her scene as The Doc I liked her. Neal McDonough is good as Fletch I just wished they gave him more to do. Kathryn Morris is good as Cruise’s wife I really liked her. Rest of the cast do fine
Overall Go see it immediately!. ***** out of 5

“Resurrecting the Champ” Movie Review
“Resurrecting the Champ” Plot Summary
Up-and-coming sports reporter rescues a homeless man (“Champ”) only to discover that he is, in fact, a boxing legend believed to have passed away. What begins as an opportunity to resurrect Champ’s story and escape the shadow of his father’s success becomes a personal journey as the ambitious reporter reexamines his own life and his relationship with his family.
Good media movie with a great message!! :) :) :) :)
This film portrayed the media world extremely accurately, largely due to the fact that it was based on a true story. The way they explain how the internet has an effect on jobs and styles of writing in journalism, along with how important it is to be thorough in background checks as well as in the writing itself. This film sends a good father-son message out there with Erik (the journalist), his son, and the Champ. Both Erik and the Champ try to be the best in what they do so their respective sons will be proud of them. In the end this turns catastrophic because Erik does not do enough searching for facts and does too much trusting in a man he knows nothing about. Both men regret their actions and try to make mends with everyone they have hurt. This film has a great story with an even better message of the media world.
