“Bicentennial Man” Plot Summary
An android endeavors to become human as he gradually acquires emotions.
Very entertaining and heart warming movie.
Chris Columbus has another hit on his hands. Robin Williams gives his usual first rate performance, along with Sam Neil and Embeth Davidtz. They highlight a well cast movie that will pull at your heart strings more than once, in a tale written by Isaac Asimov that brings a lot of human emotion to this science fiction piece.

“Superman 2″ Plot Summary
Superman agrees to sacrifice his powers to marry Lois, unaware that three Kryptonian criminals he inadvertently released are conquering Earth. add synopsis
Best of the sequels!
After the events of ‘Superman: The Movie’, the man of steel (Christopher Reeves)just saved Lois (Margot Kidder)from terrorists in Paris as he throws out their thermonuclear device that accidentally breaks the three evil Kryptonian criminals named Zod, Ursa and Non (Terrence Stamp, Sarah Douglas and Jack O’Holloren) out of their space prison to enslave the Earth with the help of Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) as only Superman must stop them. But unfortunately for Clark Kent, he wants to give up his super powers so he can be with Lois for she has found out what Clark’s secret really is and is now mortal with no power. However, the country is in chaos especially the world which is in mortal danger from the fearsome four but can Clark change back to Superman? Excellent second part of the franchise and proves a second part of a franchise can work like ‘The Godfather 2′, ‘Evil Dead 2′, ‘Dawn of the Dead (1978)’, ‘Empire Strikes Back’, ‘Spider-Man 2′, ‘X2′, etc. The acting is top notch, the villains are believable especially the sexy Sarah Douglas as Ursa! Good special effects and E.G Marshall does an appearance as the President
This sequel has everything to please fans of the first movie especially more action then ever! a highly recommended sequel and can’t wait for the Richard Donner director’s cut version coming out this fall.

“World’s Greatest Dad” Movie Review
“World’s Greatest Dad” Plot Summary
A comedy about a man who learns that the things you want most may not be the things that make you happy, and that being lonely is not necessarily the same as being alone.
Nice Black Comedy for Williams and Bobcat
World’s Greatest Dad (2009) *** (out of 4) One of the blackest of all black comedies features Robin Williams as Lance, a failed teacher, failed boyfriend and failed father to an obnoxious pervert (Daryl Sabara) who masturbates too much, is hated by everyone and who has no real purpose in life. After a tragedy and a lie the father must then come to terms with something that I won’t ruin here. When people think of Goldthwait, 99% of them are going to think of the crazy guy from the POLICE ACADEMY films and only 1% are going to know him as a filmmaker. SHAKES THE CLOWN has gained a cult following over the years and there’s no doubt that this film will eventually be looked at as not a great movie but one that after watching you’ll want to stand up and applaud the filmmakers for delivering something completely original and different. It’s hard to really describe this movie because it’s best that you go into it without knowing all of the details and how we get to the events in the second half. I’m sure you could show this movie to a hundred people and each one of them would walk away feeling the movie was about something different. I think the film certainly shines the spotlight on parenthood, teen suicide and how we worship celebs and how those celebs even become famous. The movie has so many layers that people are going to take different things away from it but I really respected the comedy of the first half and then the drama of the second. The first half of the movie is full of vulgar situations as the loser son offends one person after another and the viewer can’t help but hate him. There’s never an attempt to make us like him and that’s usually not a good thing in a comedy if you hate the leading man. We’re not even given a reason to like the father played by Williams, although I’m sure one could feel sorry for him because of how big of a loser he is to everyone around him. If you do find yourself caring for him then that might change after the events in the second half of the movie. Everyone was informed about Williams and his full frontal nudity but more people should really look at his terrific performance. I guess raw might be a simple word but the entire Williams persona is cleaned away and we’re seeing a performance from him that we haven’t seen before. I’ve always felt that he was a better dramatic actor than a comedic one but he handles both sides extremely well here. Sabara is just as great as the perverted son and Alexie Gilmore is wonderful as Williams’ girlfriend. The film hits on all sorts of rather taboo subjects but for the most part is looks them directly in the face and doesn’t back down. I’m sure the subject matter might be too much for certain film fans but I think those looking for a rather brave and original piece of film-making is going to at least respect what we get here even if they find themselves feeling uncomfortable.

“Aladdin” Movie Review
“Aladdin” Plot Summary
Aladdin, a street urchin, accidentally meets Princess Jasmine, who is in the city undercover. They love each other, but she can only marry a prince.
Aladdin is my favorite movie of all time.
This is my favorite movie of all time. I have loved this movie since I saw it when it came out in 1992. I have watched it so many times, that I know all the words. I think this movie is great to watch with the kids. Or even if you don’t have kids. I own all three on DVD and VHS. It is the first movie my daughter saw. I think it is the best Disney movie ever made. I like all three, but the first is still my favorite one. it’s the original that sticks with you. the others may be good, but not as good as the first. I hope everyone can enjoy this movie. I think no matter how old you are, or no matter what you do, that there is always room for a good Disney movie.

“Cast Away” Movie Review
“Cast Away” Plot Summary
A FedEx executive must transform himself physically and emotionally to survive a crash landing on a deserted island.
Simply wonderful!!
This is a marvelous, heartwarming, engaging movie that features the genius of Tom Hanks. The film was neither too long or boring; it was just right. It might have been boring if it’d been anyone other than Hanks, but as usual, he melts into his role and delivers a riveting performance.
Kudos to Zemeckis also in capturing Hanks’ ordeal on the island, from his weight loss to his desolation. This is one of the best ‘Robinson Crusoe’ type adaptations I’ve seen.
And Hanks’ journey back to civilization was so interesting and moving. He superbly played the part of the person who’s struggling to find his place after being out of touch for five years! The scenes are so touching, especially his reunion with Hunt.
I was almost convinced this was based on an actual account, so much so I was looking to see the trailers at the end of the movie, saying ‘Based on the real life account of…’
Tom Hanks is one of the best character actors of his generation, right alongside of Robert Duvall, Robert DeNiro, Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman, and Russell Crowe.
As an aside, this is the only movie I’ve seen that’s been a showcase of a corporate logo from beginning to end (and not a bad association, I might add), to which I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t produced by FedEx. ;-)
If you’re looking for something more than the shallow and contrived dramatics of the reality series Survivor, or a movie without the standard pyrotechnics or other adrenalin boosting gimmicks, then this film will be well worth your time.
It’s a human interest story, pure and simple.
I was so drawn in that when the movie ended, I really wanted to see what happens to Chuck in the new phase of his life, after meeting his next potential love interest at the very end of the film.
I guess that’s left up to the imagination. Happily ever after. :-)
Enjoy a superb tour de force performance by Hanks.

“Hairspray” Plot Summary
Pleasantly plump teenager Tracy Turnblad teaches 1962 Baltimore a thing or two about integration after landing a spot on a local TV dance show.
I Am Shocked
I am shocked at how much I liked this movie. When I first heard about it, I wasn’t too excited. I’m not a big fan of musicals and I didn’t think this would make me warm up to them. But I really loved this movie. It was absolutely fantastic. I was forced into seeing this movie and I didn’t expect it to be that good
My sister asked me to take her daughters, Jacqueline and Emma to see the movie and I was a little reluctant to at first, but I eventually agreed to go. It wasn’t as good as Transformers, but it was a ton of fun! My nieces were smiling to the whole movie and so was I. It was just very funny and extremely enjoyable
The whole cast was absolutely superb. Nikki Blonsky has talent. She pulled off the role of Tracy great. Amanda Bynes was great as Tracy’s pal, Penny. I like Amanda, she is a funny girl. John Travolta as Edna, Tracy’s mom. Wow. Pretty good. Michelle Pheiffer and Brittany Snow play snotty mother and daughter, Velma and Amber Von Tussel. They were pretty funny. Christopher Walken is excellent as always. Queen Latifa as Motormouth Maybelle was pretty damn hilarious. Zac Efron as the dreamy Linc Larkin. He was pretty cool. Elijah Kelley as Seaweed was just awesome!The script was pretty awesome. The songs were good and you may find yourself tapping your feet to the music. The dialogue was fun and absolutely hilarious. The characters were very, very likable. You may even grow attached to the antagonists. It was very well written and the cast proved that even more
If you want to have a fun time at the movies, I really recommend Hairspray. Even the guys will love it. The songs, script, and cast were all excellent and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Even though I loathe musicals, this one was great. Go watch it. It’s very entertaining

“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.

“Horton Hears a Who!” Plot Summary
Horton the Elephant struggles to protect a microscopic community from his neighbors who refuse to believe it exists.
A masterpiece– and funny, too!
I remember hearing about this film when it came out. And, you know what I thought? ‘Oh, this will be an ordinary children’s film that won’t have a good rating on IMDb.’ Then my mother and I came to see it, not fully knowing what to expect… And when I came out of the cinema, I was in absolute awe of ‘Horton Hears a Who!’ Let me tell you why. First of all, the film had excellent humour (including a genius anime parody sequence), yet it also possessed gripping suspense and heartrending drama. It’s likely that you’ll laugh AND cry– the climax made me excited– and probably do either or both loudly. What would happen to the Whos? Secondly, the animation is beautiful– stunningly detailed, yet not too realistic. And, finally– did I mention the intense emotions that this film made me feel? Overall, this film is a masterpiece with the perfect balance of drama and humour. Adults will love the delicious drama, while the younger people will get a good laugh. Bring the whole family — you may not regret it!

“Mulan” Movie Review
“Mulan” Plot Summary
To save her father from death in the army, a Chinese maiden secretly goes in his place and becomes one of China’s greatest heroes in the process. add synopsis
Delightful Animated Girl Hero who Breaks with Disney Traditions
‘Mulan’ is not quite a chick flick and it’s much better than ‘Pochantas.’ It has terrific animation and I forgot I was even watching animation. The script has some funny lines. The music is not great (the writers didn’t ring any bells with me as to their past work) but good lyrics. I was disappointed that the music wasn’t as Asianish as ‘Lion King’ is Africanish. And the final rap is a bit off-putting, though the segue into the Stevie Wonder song was fun
Eddie Murray isn’t Robin Williams but he’s fun. At least they do use quite a few Asian actors’ voices – Wing Na Wen (‘E.R.’), George Takei (‘Star Trek’), B.D. Wong (‘Oz’) Pat Morita (‘Karate Kid’). I think ‘Mulan’ is the first Disney animation post-Katzenberg and there’s a couple of digs at him and responses to the criticisms of how he did the girl stars. There was a lot of criticism of how Katzenberg personally insisted on Jasmine in ‘Aladdin’s impossible Barbie shape and ‘Mulan’ takes that on with a line about how stupid it is to want such a narrow waist. Definitely a much more positive body image movie than under the Katzenberg regime. There’s no dead mother syndrome here, well for Mulan anyway. The Captain’s mother isn’t mentioned. Not only is there a mom, but even a grandmom. The father is still Freudian – he’s wounded. All the Disney dads of daughters have some incapacity or other or tragic flaw
Refreshingly, there’s no wedding at the end with birds chirping as a canopy. The courting is assumed and the grandmom invites the captain to live there forever–but Mulan shuts her up. (originally written 7/23/1998)

“A Nightmare on Elm Street 6: The Dream Lover” Plot Summary
Freddy Krueger returns once again to haunt both the dreams of his daughter and Springwood’s last surviving teenager. add synopsis
one of the best films in the ‘nightmare’ series
It is not the most original but it is the most funny
Freddy’s Death is a very good directed film in the series,which 3-D scenes are cool when it came out (1991).
This film,with a independent story (it is not into the Nancy’s series and Alice Johnson’s one)has a correct plot and correct actors in perhaps the second best movie in the series
It is very funny at the beginning when it appears a sentence by Nietzsche and then a Freddy’s sentence.’NIGHTMARE 6′:Good film.
