“Mad Max” Movie Review
“Mad Max” Plot Summary
In a dystopic future Australia, a vicious biker gang murder a cop’s family and make his fight with them personal.
Low budget classic that is now a genre landmark.
Set somewhere in the future we are privy to a world where the roads are ruled by maniac gangs with souped up cars, and bikers that literally could come from hell. Trying to stop these marauding loons are the overstretched police force who themselves ride in exceptionally fast cars. At the front of this story is Max Rockatansky, a good honest cop trying to hold his own against the chaotic world that is forming around him. After his best friend is burned and left for dead he decides enough is enough and thinks about retiring from the service, but whilst on a vacation with his wife and child things go decidedly bad and Max becomes an avenging force of fury with devastating affect
When evaluating this film I feel it really needs to be put into perspective just how brilliant a job director George Miller did with next to no cash to work with, in fact Miller edited the film in his own bedroom just to emphasise the low-fi nature of the beast. The costumes are excellent, the cast are terrific, with Mel Gibson as Max particularly impressive, and here we have villains to truly fit the word villainous, but it’s the stunts and chase sequences that makes this film a rich rewarding experience. The opening ten minutes alone are pure adrenalin pumping genius, but the film as a whole delivers a crash bang wallop punch that has often been imitated since its release, but rarely bettered, and although the heart of the film is a simple revenge story, it grabs your attention and delivers right to the corking finale, 8/10.
Footnote: Region 2 Users should note that the bargain bucket Mad Max Trilogy flip pack set still contains the foolishly dubbed version of this film, incredibly stupid move from the American distributors.

Good Movie
I went into this thinking it wouldn’t be that good, but I found it very enjoyable.
This is a very good ‘Turn your brain off and relax’ action movie.
For some reason, I actually enjoyed this one more than the first one.
It does start off a little slow, and some of the characters are a little stereotypical, but it has an interesting premise, an interesting story, very good action sequences, and some great performances by most of the actors in the film.
You can tell everyone was trying hard to make a fun, interesting film, and it shows.
9/10. I recommend this to anyone who just wants to relax for about 2 hours and watch an entertaining action movie. It is a little slow for about a half an hour, but I don’t feel it makes it any less enjoyable. You don’t have to think about it, you can just relax and enjoy the ride.

“Cellular” Movie Review
“Cellular” Plot Summary
A young man receives an emergency phone call on his cell phone from an older woman. The catch? The woman claims to have been kidnapped; and the kidnappers have targeted her husband and child next.
this movie has the best pace of any movie i have ever seen.
i was literally on the edge of my seat watching this movie. this was one of those days where i went to blockbuster and they just had nothing out that week. i saw cellular and i thought it could have some potential. i didn’t have high expectations, but it blew me away. the acting was pretty good, not great. but where this movie shines is its action and extremely fast pace. in one of the parts of the movie where he steals the porsche, i actually found myself on the very edge of my couch. this didn’t win any Oscars or anything, but its good thrilling entertainment. not a lot of people heard about it, but its had the same effect on everyone I’ve shown it to.

“Superbad” Movie Review
“Superbad” Plot Summary
Two co-dependent high school seniors are forced to deal with separation anxiety after their plan to stage a booze-soaked party goes awry.
Definitely the best Apatow-group film yet
I enjoyed ‘The 40-Year-Old Virgin,’ but didn’t feel it was entirely worthy of all the enormous acclaim it garnered. And for all the praise ‘Knocked Up’ received, I thought it was fairly average. So I wasn’t expecting much from ‘Superbad.’ However, I’d have to say it’s the smartest and funniest Apatow film yet. I know he didn’t direct it, but his influence is distinct. And in the past I’ve felt indifferent towards Apatow’s brand of humour, but combined with Rogen’s sensitivity towards the teen condition here, it works really well
People have compared it to John Hughes’ better teen comedies, but I don’t think the approach is entirely similar. ‘Superbad’ is cruder, ruder, a bit more focused on the sex & alcohol jokes. But it works really well because it captures that dynamic – better than ‘American Pie’ because it invests more care into its characters. One of the strengths of ‘Pie’ over other films in its genre (such as, say, ‘Slackers’) has always been its characters, and ‘Superbad’ similarly relies on its characters for support. Plus, it’s just really funny
The performances all around are pretty funny, even if the Fogell/McLovin pop culture references are ruining a good joke (kind of like ‘Yeah, baby!!’ ruined Austin Powers when 20-year-old frat boys around the country thought it would be funny to shout the phrase every five seconds).
Jonah Hill and Michael Cera have great chemistry and another one of the strengths of this film is that its teenage characters actually do look their age (even though Hill is in his early 20s, he still passes as a senior). But it was Bill Hader and Seth Rogen who stole the show for me as the clueless cops
Overall this is just a funny, well-made film with heart. It doesn’t mock its characters or their predicaments but casts a knowing eye on the high school experience. It captures all this very well and was certainly, in my opinion, far superior to ‘Knocked Up.’

“Street Kings” Movie Review
“Street Kings” Plot Summary
Tom Ludlow is a veteran LAPD cop who finds life difficult to navigate after the death of his wife. When evidence implicates him in the execution of a fellow officer, he is forced to go up against the cop culture he’s been a part of his entire career, ultimately leading him to question the loyalties of everyone around him.
Solid action pic
Okay, let’s face it. The credibility factor in almost ALL action flicks is questionable at best. If you really took the time to analyze the logic behind the story, you’d come up short. But, by definition, action pics are just that — heavy on the action, and not so heavy on the logic that supports the story. With this in mind, Street Kings is a solid, well-executed action flick that has all the right ingredients: a non-conformist hero you WANT to root for; a never-let-up story that keeps you riveted to the end; and a stylish, fast-paced visual smorgasbord that delivers from start to finish
Yes, the story falls short — you’ll find yourself asking questions like ‘Why did the undercover cops that Tom Ludlow (Keanu) kill want to eliminate Detective Washington if they weren’t part of Det. Wander’s crew to begin with?’ Yeah, it does get a little dicey if you think it through — but if you DON’T bother getting bogged down in the minutia, it works. Contrary to much of the published critique of the movie, I think Keanu brings exactly what is needed to the role — he’s vulnerable, jaded, broken… and invincible. What more could you want in a solid action pic??

“Notorious” Movie Review
“Notorious” Plot Summary
The life and death story of Notorious B.I.G. (a.k.a. Christopher Wallace), who came straight out of Brooklyn to take the world of rap music by storm.
Interesting!
Notorious tells the story of a Brooklyn junkie who later turned out to be one of the most world-wide known rappers. And that person was Christopher ‘Notorious B.I.G’ Wallace, a junkie who turned to rapping and then produced albums that made millions while also making a name for himself. Jamal Woolard plays the role of Biggie Smalls exceptionally well and he also shares a similar face and body. It tells the story of Biggie Smalls life from 1972 to 1997 starting from his childhood all the way to his death. The rap music is the great thing about this film but Lil’ Kim’s live stage rap was totally unnecessary and inappropriate. This film shows that a celebrities life-style isn’t all that great and when they think that they have everything, next thing they are getting divorced. The acting from some, Like Angela Bassett and Jamal Woolard, were very promising and they really settled into the life or Biggie Smalls. If you ever wanted to know more about Notorious B.I.G then this film must is supposed to be on your must-watch list. The language is very rude and uncool because they are swearing in every line, Motherf*cker that and this! What is the world coming to? NOTORIOUS is the story of Christopher Wallace. Through raw talent and sheer determination, Wallace transforms himself from Brooklyn street hustler (once selling crack to pregnant women) to one of the greatest rappers of all time; THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. Follow his meteoric rise to fame and his refusal to succumb to expectations – redefining our notion of ‘The American Dream.’ The story does get interesting and a lot of lessons are learned and this film sent out a message saying: It’s never too late to change yourself
If you are a drama and rapping fan then by unanimous decision this film is what you need to watch. Jamal Woolard looks really weird and cute at the same time when he gets that weird smile on his face (See the scene between Faith and him at the end). Marc John Jefferies has given one of the best performances in the film as he portrays a young Lil’ Cease. The film also tells the story of Tupac’s and Smalls friendship that turned into a racial break up.
