“Insomnia” Movie Review
“Insomnia” Plot Summary
Two Los Angeles homicide detectives are dispatched to a northern town where the sun doesn’t set to investigate the methodical murder of a local teen.
Solid thriller with strong acting
Glad to be getting away from the Internal Affairs investigation in their department in LA, Will Dormer and his partner Hap Eckhart fly up to assist on a murder case in Alaska. Will quickly makes the progress that his reputation led young officer Ellie Burr to expect. However when a suspect is chased through fog, Will accidentally shoots Hap. He covers it up and blames the suspect, conscious that IAD will assume that he killed Hap to prevent him cutting a deal with them. However later he gets a call from the killer who saw the whole thing and is holding it over Will in return for him framing someone else. With fewer options and Ellie investigating the shooting, Will finds himself unable to sleep in the 24 hour sunshine and getting increasingly strung out
Better known as part 2 of Robin Williams proving he can do more than just sentimental crap, I was looking forward to seeing it. I haven’t seen the original film so I can’t contrast the two and say which is better – I could only judge this on its own merits. I found the film to be a very enjoyable thriller that was very atmospheric. The story itself is quite intriguing and is at its best when Will and Walter are playing cat and mouse games with each other. The main investigation and the investigation into Hap’s shooting all add to the intensity
Although it is quite slow at times it is actually well paced – some fast paced exciting moments but mostly dialogue driven scenes that are just as exciting. The direction is excellent and the whole film has a bright crisp feel to it. The final shot of the film is powerful yet still, with the protagonists frozen against a background of lake and mountains
The film’s main driver is the strength of the performances. Williams is excellent, I was never sure what to make of his character because Williams kept him complex enough to hold the interest. Pacino is also great. He actually looks dog tired progressively through the film. Like Williams, his character has enough meat on it to be of interest and when either of them was on the screen, my interest was guaranteed . Swank had a difficult task to play opposite Pacino in the majority of her scenes but she really holds her own. Donovan is good but brief, but to be honest it is Pacino and Williams’ film the whole way
Overall this is a classy little thriller that has more than enough going on to keep it interesting. The plot is well written so that it avoids a simplistic good/evil approach and the performances bring the well-drawn characters to life.

Two Thumbs Up !
Sequel? What sequel? Ah yes, with the same main actors and actresses…not forgetting the clips in the movies that reminds you of PRETTY WOMAN. For example the balcony scene, and the bargaining of money to be paid..gosh it almost felt like it was the SAME movie I was watching rather then the sequel to it…None-the-less, this is better in terms of the many good punch line given to Richard Gere in this movie. I believe he develops his part better compared to the stiff person he played in Pretty Woman. As for Julia Roberts, hey, what can be said..she is the natural thing..I believe she plays the part so well..But have you all notice something? She has been the one asking the man for their hands in marriage in like three movies..namely MY BEST FRIEND’S WEDDING, NOTTING HILL and last but not least RUNAWAY BRIDE.. When does she intend to give up doing this? mmm…I wonder..Oh well, I still think at the end this is a great show and I have watched it like four times already. So I guess it is worth watching..I give it 9 out of 10. Fantastic job all of you. Last but not least, if there is going to be another sequel, please give Hector Elizondo more lines…he seems to be there but not there…if you get what I mean..Thanks.

“Cars” Movie Review
“Cars” Plot Summary
A hot-shot race-car named Lightning McQueen gets waylaid in Radiator Springs, where he finds the true meaning of friendship and family.
well done
Caught the world premiere at Lowe’s Motor Speedway in Charlotte– we’re not race fans ourselves by any means, but you really don’t have to be to get on the road with this one. We were privvy to a couple inside jokes, living amongst the racing atmosphere that IS Charlotte, but even if we hadn’t gotten that extra little chuckle, there’s definitely plenty to find. Not just for kids. Kids will like the cute characters, and bright colors, adults will like it simply because it’s just plain entertaining without having to dumb down to appeal to kids. You’ll find yourself wanting to find the next twisty backroad to get to your next destination. Watch for all kids of cameo’s, and it’s too bad IMDb doesn’t include a picture of the animated character as well– it’s not always easy to remember what the names are once you get home. Owen’s good, Newman is classic, if a little flat (I applaud him for just plain staying active and leaving his house!), but it’s really Larry the Cable Guy’s movie– newfound appreciation for that one– and ‘tow-mater’ is a multi-layered pun. Not only on the fact that he’s a tow truck, but also his ‘they call me tater salad’ bit– Overall, highly entertaining, just try not to speed too much on the way home….
