“P.O.T.C.” Plot Summary
Blacksmith Will Turner teams up with eccentric pirate “Captain” Jack Sparrow to save his love, the governor’s daughter, from Jack’s former pirate allies, who are now undead.
A tale of love, war and power
Oh and what a movie this is. There is something for everyone in the family with this movie, romance, action, drama, horror, adventure and fantasy. A quality of acting rivaling no other movie in recent times, except for the Rings trilogy, but that’s another thing altogether. I have watched this movies so many times that I can’t even keep track. This movie never gets boring. Johnny Depp is at the top of this career with this film!! A must see, many times over. A true classic! The cursed tale of a pirate ship’s captain, marooned by his mutineering mates and left for dead on a desert isle. He returns with another ship, this time stolen from the Royal Navy, in order to reclaim his rightful command of the infamous Black Pearl, a ship so evil that hell itself spat back her dead. He is joined by the son of a murdered pirate ship’s mate, a swordsman who’s skill and craft are equal to that of Robin Hood himself. The boy is motivated by love for a woman, herself of royal blood and captured by those mutineering pirates of ill repute in order to release a curse cast upon them from the captured gold of the famous Spanish explorer and conquistador, Hernando Cortez. With the Royal Navy in hot pursuit of their stolen ship, the captain and the boy, along with another crew of pirates, make haste for the Black Pearl, execute a cunning plan, and live happily ever after. Well, not exactly like that but almost. This film is destined a classic because of the dry, witty comments, superb acting of the entire cast, outstanding writing and special effects, and it’s about time someone put this swashbuckling story to film. Rated PG-13, which is the number of times you should see this movie.

“Finding Neverland” Movie Review
“Finding Neverland” Plot Summary
The story of J.M. Barrie’s friendship with a family who inspired him to create Peter Pan.
Beautiful, Moving Movie with Very Few Flaws
I had heard that this was merely a ‘chick flick.’ Hey, my wife is the one who wanted to go see it. As it turned out, I went with three other guys, and we all loved it
Some movies entertain; some teach; some open up new worlds. This movie opened up new worlds. With each passing scene, carefully woven from the previous ones, it was like crossing yet another threshold into another world. The story unfolded deeper and deeper with each new scene, each layer adding not to complexity (the story is rather simple), but to the depth. Depp and the others (esp. the young actor who played Peter) easily lead the audience deeper and deeper into the paths of authenticity, healing, love, friendship and the triumph of inner strength. The other characters, likewise, garnish the central story excellently
The only flaw I saw is, I’m sure, a matter of taste and perspective; I felt the grandmother was simply too two-dimensional and not as believable as she should have been, though she, too, had some beautiful moments that truly added to the film
Having much experience with divorce (being a divorce attorney) I found the unfortunate relationship between Depp’s character and his wife believable to a tee: two people deeply in love with each other yet more committed to personal pursuits than tending the difficult relationship we call marriage. Ironically, though Depp’s character ultimately became the main caretaker of the four boys, by following the tender feelings of his heart, he allowed his marriage to evaporate by not following the other tender feelings of his heart
Nearly perfect. I give it a 9 out of 10.

“P.O.T.C. 2″ Plot Summary

Viva Pirates!
Well, first of all, when I read the review for the movie in my hometown paper, I was a little scared that Pirates might be a let down. The trailer and the movie clips, it seemed, didn’t really let on that there was much of a story line — that it just kind of goes on and on and on, like the Matrix 2, with no storyline — just fighting. Plus, most people do agree: sequels are hardly ever as good as the originals. And in this case, it’s true… Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest isn’t the original. But, its an awesome movie in its own right! There are a few surprises in this movie. A few characters come back from the first that you wouldn’t expect to see in the second. but… um! that’s all I’m saying. This movie is definitely a lot more violent and gory than the first one. Don’t bring the little kids to it. But, trust me — this is not a Matrix-type movie… There is an actual storyline. And a good one at that. Capt. Jack Sparrow is back as well as Elizabeth and Will, who are forced to find him and obtain his compass, or else they will face the gallows. Well, actually, Will has to find him. Elizabeth escapes, and yes… as you’ve seen in the trailers, she does dress up like a man for this movie. Making it all the more comical. (you’ll see what I mean).
The comedy was superb in this movie. Of course, it wasn’t as good as the first, but you can’t expect it to be. Yes, there were a few instances were they could’ve shortened the fighting scenes, but it was very well shot and scripted
I wish they would’ve changed a few things about the movie, but you can’t have everything. And don’t expect everything to be resolved at the end. No! There’s a cliff-hanger ending that leaves you wanting the watch the next one the moment the credits start rolling
If you like the first movie, you’ll like the second… And that’s all I’m saying
Jack Sparrow: ‘Why is the rum *always* gone?’ (he stands up and staggers) ‘Oh… That’s why.’

“Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End” Movie Review
“P.O.T.C. 3″ Plot Summary
Captain Barbossa, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann must sail off the edge of the map, navigate treachery and betrayal, and make their final alliances for one last decisive battle.
At World’s End
The more I think about this movie, the more I like it. This is strange, considering my low expectations. The first film was fun, and I was very happy to see swashbuckling returning to movies, but I never really bought into the script. I wasn’t convinced that pirates were some sort of blood-bound ‘race’, and I was powerfully confused by the distance between and physical relationships of various locations. But, still good fun. The second film just kind of made me mad; I loved the ending, but it was just one example of how much it was a standard sequel: every single quirk of the first film was referenced, every single character had to return, and it HAD to be structured – nay, plotted – like Empire Strikes Back. This included re-introducing the Han Solo-Leia love story where the female lead wants the anti-hero, just to appease all the screaming Johnny Depp fans. It begged to be liked, but aside from a great score, great effects, and some very funny moments, it just came off as trite
And then we get At World’s End, which has everything you could possibly want in a pirate fantasy film: Legendary ships riddling each other with cannon fire in a whirlpool, screaming buccaneers swinging from one ship to the next, sword-fights on crow’s nests, and all that in about fifteen minutes. The rest is an admittedly convoluted story that is much more clearly plotted than the second film, while still taking breaks for letting us spend time with characters we weren’t so sure about last time, but are once again fond of. Maybe it’s Geoffrey Rush as Barbossa, or the overall simplicity of the plot, but it just worked, and I had a great time
I was legitimately surprised and concerned at what the plot did with our heroes and villains, and was very satisfied with everyone’s status in the end. I guess I wouldn’t mind seeing another Pirates movie now, but I kind of think everything that needs to be done is in this film
I can’t wrap up without mentioning the very nice abstract stuff Verbinksi and co. did with the journey to Davey Jones’ Locker. It takes guts to do really surreal stuff with a $300 million Happy Meal blockbuster, but they really did some new, interesting things with their bottomless bag of tricks

“Resident Evil: Apocalypse” Movie Review
“Resident Evil 2″ Plot Summary
After an outbreak in a top-secret facility, Umbrella ponders on covering up their mistakes by releasing the deadly Nemesis to eliminate surviving STARS members in Raccoon City.
THE funniest movie i have ever seen
*Spoiler Alert* (coincidentally can you spoil crap?) Where on earth to start…oh my, I’m trying to sit here with my friend and figure out how to best describe the utter stupidity presented in this movie…truly a waste of the breath in my lungs…OK, lets start with one of the main characters, Alice whom my friend and I repeatedly referred to as ‘Boomer’ because of her ability to constantly amaze us. This name is merely an understatement, as we are presented with multiple encounters of seemingly ‘near death’ situations in which she quickly devises some witty plan, gains the strength of an ox, the agility of a rabid bunny, and the brain capacity of Stephen Hawking. One incident in particular is the scene in which ‘boomer’ valiantly smashes through an assembly of stained glass windows on her motorcycle and carefully times her departure from the vehicle in the form of a triple back-flip, projecting the motorcycle at high speeds towards the apparently ‘bullet-fast’ creature within the building’s confines, only for the motorcycle to attain a vertical position along the creatures’ abdomen, turning perfectly, exposing the ‘ever-so-small’ gas tank, allowing ‘boomer’ an effortless, but nonetheless accurate shot at the flammable contents of the tank, and thus ‘efficiently’ dispatching this foul creature from existence… With her flawless perfection of shot, and ample bosom, how could anyone despise this movie…for laughs. Certainly not for actual enjoyment
This movie was so bad, i purged in an empty popcorn container, forgot about it, picked up the container once again, and proceeded to name the individual ingredients i recognized as food, and formulated names for things that looked supernatural. That was a much more fulfilling use of my time than watching this crappy flick.

“The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus” Plot Summary
A traveling theater company gives its audience much more than they were expecting.
Terry Gilliam finally back
It is really a shame, that Heath Ledger has left this world. Seeing him in this movie and his performance in the Batman movie (The Dark Knight), you really wish you could see him in more movies. Which of course will not happen. We can even be glad that we have the chance to watch his performance on this movie
Heath Ledger had shot most of his scenes already, before he passed away. Terry Gilliam got convinced by the crew and the cast of this film, that he should continue in Memory of Heath L. And so he came up with a few new ideas, how this movie should be. And if you have no idea about Heath Ledger passing away and that whole story, you might even think the movie was planned like that from the get go
It’s a crazy world, that Terry shows us, which won’t answer many questions at the beginning and will leave with a few at the end. An end, that is really great and comes pretty close to the ‘Brazil’ brilliance. The whole movie seems like a comeback. Not that Terry G. was gone, but his Grimm Brothers movie did hurt his reputation
After this excruciating experience (it took quite a few years from start to finish), Terry is planning to finally film one of his dream projects. Don Quixote! Johnny Depp will not play the lead (he was cast back when Terry tried and couldn’t finish, watch ‘Lost in La Mancha’, a great documentary about the ‘Un-making’ of that movie) and it’s not out yet, who will play the lead role. Heath Ledger would have been great …

“The Brothers Grimm” Movie Review
“The Brothers Grimm” Plot Summary
Will and Jake Grimm are travelling con-artists who encounter a genuine fairy-tale curse which requires genuine courage instead of their usual bogus exorcisms.
Brothers Grimm awake your worst childhood nightmares.
I am surprised to find that this movie is so utterly underrated here. I have grown up on those tales, and I must say, Terry Gilliam really portrayed the worst of all the stories ever scripted by the Grimm Brothers. The plot itself is quite uncomplicated: the two Grimm Brothers travel around the land, pretending to fight evil spirits and witches they make up. The people are relieved and pay well. However, after their trick is found out, the only way they can regain their freedom is by encountering and fighting a true witch in a haunted forest that makes me shudder even as I think of it right now (no kidding). And believe it or not, Monica Bellucci is simply horrifying as the evil queen nurturing herself on the dead bodies of little girls of the village
The toad showing the directions is plainly hilarious
The gingerbread man is a blood-thirsty alternative for Shrek’s pal
I think that everyone complaining about Grimm Brothers should stop and think that this is a generally not very twisted version of what kids get to read or what is read to them at a very-very young age (at least here in Europe). I think Brothers Grimm is, apart from being a really intriguing and spectacular horror movie, a very well-made and intelligent satire on the Grimms’ ‘children bedtime’ stories. Brothers Grimm is one of its kind.
