“Kramer Versus Kramer” Plot Summary
A just divorced man must learn to care for his son on his own, and then must fight in court to keep custody of him. add synopsis
A fine movie
No, this has nothing to do with the sitcom ‘Seinfeld’ or its eccentric and hilarious character Cosmo Kramer. In reality, ‘Kramer vs. Kramer’ is a fine drama movie, without a doubt one of the finest of its kind and one of the greatest movies ever. I’m glad that it won more Oscars than ‘Apocalypse Now’ because it really deserved such glory.’Kramer vs. Kramer’ is an excellent film, so well made and so perfectly balanced that I wouldn’t change anything about it in any way. There is nothing wrong with the film. It’s film-making of the highest quality. And it stands the test of time, too. Not only it doesn’t look any dated, but also its cultural impact is long-lasting and its realistic story remains just as significant as it was when it came out in 1979. A timeless classic. They don’t make movies like this today
This movie is dramatic, realistic, simple but brilliant, intense, powerful, sweet and even tragic and depressing sometimes. Yet, it has fine humor as well. It has no special effects, but who cares? This is not the movie or place to discuss such thing. For a movie like this, such thing would be pointless and absolutely unnecessary
The story is very interesting. The actors’s chemistry is just perfect. All of the actors are great, but the 3 main ones are the very best. Dustin Hoffman, a brilliant actor, has his greatest performance ever here as the lovable but distant workaholic Ted Kramer. Meryl Streep is great as Ted’s wife, Joanna. And cute little Justin Henry is terrific as the loving but sometimes stubborn Billy, son of Ted and Joanna
The soundtrack is all instrumental and wonderful. The opening song (by the guitarist Frederic Hand) is brilliant. The rest of the soundtrack is mostly Antonio Vivaldi’s classical music and is simply dazzling
This motion picture has also an incredible development of the characters. See the character Ted Kramer: a workaholic who becomes an amazing father after being left with no choice but to take care of his son, trying to adjust these new responsibilities with his job after being left by his wife Joanna. With this, Ted learns about the most beautiful things in life, but also realizes how though life is, with the problems in his job and the return of Joanna, who wants the custody of their son. But even Joanna changes for better and the ending is an unexpected surprise when one sees this for the first time
This movie has also some though things, such as courtroom scenes where both Ted and Joanna face brutal character assassinations unleashed by the lawyers. Another though thing to see is when poor Billy falls off a jungle gym with his toy (a plane) and gets seriously injured on his face. But then again, the scene is very well made and what comes next is very intense: his father runs quickly and crosses numerous blocks, ignoring the traffic to take his son to the hospital
Overall, this is a movie which is a good lesson of life
This should definitely be on Top 250.

“The Devil Wears Prada” Plot Summary
A naive young woman comes to New York and scores a job as the assistant to one of the city’s biggest magazine editors, the ruthless and cynical Miranda Priestly.
Loved it!
I thought the movie was just too cute.. If you’ve read the book, you won’t be disappointed! It’s the story of a young girl who moves to NYC to become a journalist but finds herself working as an assistant for a top notch fashion magazine, which is way out of her style league. The girl is a go-getter so she does what she has to do to make it work and ends up becoming the right hand (wo)man to the editor and chief changing her life (for better or worse) forever. The movie is definitely a feel-good and has you leaving the theater with a smile and a bit more confidence in your walk. I absolutely recommend it and apologize for not giving more details, but it’s too good and I don’t want to ruin it for anyone!Also, for you guys… a lot of males were at the special showing and I heard a few say they surprisingly liked it (including one of my ‘macho’ guy friends) so if you’re looking for a nice date or a surprise for your loved one, it’s a good pick!

“Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events” Movie Review
“Lemony Snicket” Plot Summary
Three wealthy children’s parents are killed in a fire. When they are sent to a distant relative, they find out that he is plotting to kill them and seize their fortune.
The Marvellous Movie
It was wonderful. I’m sorry, skeptics, but it really was
The costumes were really unique. I liked how they seemed to draw inspiration from several different time periods
I really loved Liam Aiken and Emily Browning as Klaus and Violet Baudelaire- even though they didn’t fit my mental images of the characters, they proved themselves over and over again throughout the course of the film. Emily Browning has a history of doing excellent films, and after seeing her in the comparatively small role of Ned Kelly’s sister I had a lot of faith in her. I wasn’t quite as sure about Liam Aiken because I hadn’t seen any of his work, but I was pleasantly surprised
Sunny Baudelaire (as played by Kara and Shelby Hoffman) was just done perfectly. Everybody in the cinema laughed at the subtitles. I seriously didn’t think that it was possible for two-year-olds to be good at acting, but the Hoffman twins convinced me otherwise
The musical score was brilliantly done and the sets were, in a word, epic. I felt *dizzy* whenever there were panoramic shots of Lake Lachrymose, for heaven’s sakes! There were some scenes which were not in the books- such as the theme of sanctuary, the spyglasses, the lost letter from the Baudelaire parents. As a Lemony Snicket obsessive I expected to fume at these scenes, but they worked wonderfully
Keep an eye out for the hilarious ‘Littlest Elf’ sequence at the beginning and the amazing animated credits (complete with a song from the film ‘The Addams Family’, possibly a nod to Barry Sonnenfield, who is credited as a producer).
I am giving this film a 9 out of 10 simply because I am a fan of the books and there were a couple of story details I felt could have been communicated better
Excellent stuff! If there are any sequels, they can only improve.

“Mamma Mia!” Movie Review
“Mamma Mia” Plot Summary
The story of a bride-to-be trying to find her real father told using hit songs by the popular ’70s group ABBA.
Mamma Mia, Meryl!!!
There’s no better way to describe the HORRENDOUS experience that’s to watch Mamma Mia: Hitler must be looking up, saying to the pseudo-director Phyllida Lloyd ‘You monster, what have you done?’Everything about the movie is wrong. Just Wrong! Even its success, which is unexplainable. I can understand when those crappy parody movies, like Epic Movie, make their minimal share of money and turn profit just because they’re cheap (of course they are!). But when something like Mamma Mia makes 450 million dollars worldwide, you think ‘what the hell is wrong with the world?’And to think we have Meryl Streep, one of the greatest alive actresses of the world, in it? What was she thinking? ‘I need the money’, she could say. Well then, sell one of your grandchildren, even that would be less embarrassing. It’s not that Meryl is good in a disastrous piece of, err, ‘movie’. She’s also disastrous! When she sings, even though she’s got the vocals, it’s ridiculous. Worse than her only Pierce Brosnan. He used to be James Bond. Now he’s singing Abba in a purple spandex during the credits of the worst movie ever. Really? And when I mention Abba, not that I have anything against the band and their music. Though it doesn’t help them when actors started singing (badly), dancing (worse) and the extras join then (They pop out of nowhere! Frequently!) to present one terrible musical sequences after the other. You wanna cry when the music starts. And I love musicals! But this is the first in the genre where you PRAY for actual silence
I could keep going. The list goes on forever. You could write a Stephen King novel with the complete list of mistakes in this movie
To sum up: go watch it! Really! You’ve got to witness to understand!! And since it’s already a huge success, who cares if it makes a few more dollars from you? And it’s not liking you’re selling your soul to the devil. Meryl did that before. For the whole mankind. And now the world must end, because we’ve committed the ultimate evil and we must be destroyed.

“The Deer Hunter” Movie Review
“The Deer Hunter” Plot Summary
An in-depth examination of the way that the Vietnam war affects the lives of people in a small industrial town in the USA.
An unforgettable movie.
This is a movie with a touching story about friendship and most of all in shows the horror of the Vietnam war. This movie has some of the best acting performances I have seen,and I am of course talking about Robert De Niro and Christopher Walken. They really goes into their roles and creates a great atmosphere. This movie also contains one of the most famous scenes in movie history,the russian roulett scene
This scene is so intense and creepy to watch. One of the few great Vietnam movies ever.

“Fantastic Mr. Fox” Movie Review
“Fantastic Mr. Fox” Plot Summary
Angry farmers, tired of sharing their chickens with a sly fox, look to get rid of their opponent and his family.
I Liked It, But This Isn’t For Kids
‘Fantastic Mr. Fox’ is the story of the titular Mr. Fox, his family, his stealing shenanigans and his rivalry with the three notorious farmers from whom he stole. This film is an adult version of a children’s story by Roald Dahl, as interpreted by American director/writer Wes Anderson. It was interpreted in rather old-fashioned-looking, almost monochromatic (orange-yellow-brown) stop-motion animation. The attention of my sons were not held by the slow beginning and by all the talking. My daughter was not even interested to watch it at all
I, on the other hand, quite enjoyed it. The dialogue is funny and witty, and very adult. There is even a hilarious attempt to hide all profanity with the word ‘cuss’. I do not really like stop-animation movies (like ‘Gumby’ or ‘Wallace and Grommit’), but their pain-stakingly detailed efforts are appreciated
George Clooney definitely inhabits the character of Mr. Fox. He appropriately channeled Danny Ocean, especially in light of the heists that Mr. Fox was pulling, complete with smug attitude. Meryl Streep portrays Mrs. Felicity Fox. I felt there was nothing really special about it. Any actress could have done it just as well. Apparently the supporting cast is composed of actors who are staples of Wes Anderson films like Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Jason Schwartzman, etc. I particularly liked how Murray voiced Attorney Badger
I read an excerpt of ‘Fantastic Mr. Fox’ from the Roald Dahl book that we had. It turns out while the main characters and the stealing capers are similar, the rest of the movie (like the cousin rivalry, among others) is entirely Wes Anderson. I had never seen a Wes Anderson movie before, although I had long heard of his work like ‘Rushmore’ or ‘The Royal Tenenbaums’. But after watching ‘Mr. Fox,’ I think I will check them out.

“Lions for Lambs” Plot Summary
Injuries sustained by two Army ranger behind enemy lines in Afghanistan set off a sequence of events involving a congressman, a journalist and a professor.
Simple but strong
An excellent plot line, brilliantly directed, great cast, not one of Tom’s best performances, but non the less impeccable. The underlying critique of the severe levels of apathy we face in society nowadays is so subtle that it screams a wake up call. All Redford fans will surely be delighted as this is definitely one of his best pieces. I loved the way he approached the subject, which in it self is not an easy one to develop under the circumstances and what fascinates me is that the movie is so fluid, mind opening, non-invasive and easy to grasp that it almost leaves you with the impression that anyone could have done it, which of course is far from the truth. I think this should be a mandatory classroom video for both high school and college students alike, because everyone can benefit from the psychological momentum this movie captures and conveys so beautifully.

“Julie & Julia” Plot Summary
Julia Child’s story of her start in the cooking profession is intertwined with blogger Julie Powell’s 2002 challenge to cook all the recipes in Child’s first book. add synopsis
yummy.
I have to say this movie met, but didn’t quite exceed my expectations. A little word of advice: don’t go see this hungry! I left wanting buy Mastering the Art of French Cooking! The story moves along nicely, but never really has a high point. Just a lot of good humor and French food. Of the two leading characters, I found Julia to be much more entertaining to watch, proving once again that Meryl Streep can do absolutely no wrong. Streep is a joy to watch as she towers over most of the extras as the 6′2 Child and captures Julia’s love of life and big personality perfectly. I smell another Oscar nomination coming her way. That doesn’t mean that Amy Adams wasn’t good, it was just that Julie wasn’t as interesting. Stanley Tucci was also very good as Paul, Julia’s husband. This movie isn’t anything spectacular but certainly doesn’t disappoint. It leaves you with a warm feeling in your heart and an empty stomach. Bon Appetit!
