“Spiderman 2″ Plot Summary
Peter Parker is beset with troubles in his failing personal life as he battles a brilliant scientist named Doctor Otto Octavius, who becomes Doctor Octopus (aka Doc Ock), after an accident causes him to bond psychically with mechanical tentacles that do his bidding. add synopsis
Better than the first!
I for one was not totally blown away by the first Spider-Man film. Yes, it is a good comic to film, but somehow I just didn’t get caught up in all the hoopla. That was changed with Spider-Man 2. This film took the successful elements from the first (character and acting) and pushed it up another notch
We were given again only 1 new villain, this saved much needed time to flesh out Peter Parker/Spider-Man as well as further the other story lines going on with those surrounding Peter. The struggle that Peter goes through; should he or shouldn’t he sacrifice his life for others, is handled beautifully here. You feel that struggle. He may be a ’superhero’, but he is still just a kid trying to sort out his life. A life that seems to sucker punch him every single day. I thought this was the most logical step to take the franchise after the introduction in the first. The special effects this time were much improved over the first. Many times I was taken out of the moment in the first film because the effects looked to much like effects and were not natural. That is still a problem from time to time here again, but by in large a much better outing
Story, performances, effects, all were improved in the 2nd installment, something we just don’t see happen a lot. One of the best comic to film productions ever in my opinion.

“Spider-Man 3″ Movie Review
“Spider-Man 3″ Plot Summary
A strange black entity from another world bonds with Peter Parker and causes inner turmoil as he contends with new villains, temptations, and revenge.
Better Then I Ever Imagined
Sam Raimi once again directs this visual, emotional, and stunning sequel
This movie picks up pretty much where Spider-man 2 had left off from. The first 20 minutes of the movie really rush through everyones story including Sandman and the arrival of Venom. Spider-man is now a huge star in New York in this movie, loved by everyone, while Mary Jane in the beginning is loving her career as an actress on stage. Harry Osborn is an angry and bitter human being driven to kill Peter Parker because he now knows that he is Spider-man and in his eyes, the man who killed his father
As the story goes on we learn that the sandman is really a man named Flint Marko (Thomas Haden Church) who is a man who just broke out of jail, he is also a man who is trying to heal his sick daughter. Venom is a man named Eddie Brock, who is trying to steal the job that Peter currently has and hates Peter. Harry early on in the movie loses his some of his memory in a fight against Peter
While the movie does rush through these stories in the beginning, it does it smoothly and makes each scene look its best. The Sandman was done so beautifully in this movie and the emotion of the character really doesn’t make him feel like a villain. Venom however, is complete evil and that really is the main focus of the movie for the most part. When the black suit takes over Peter, it is actually pretty funny because we see Peter acting cool and bad, pointing at all the girls that pass and Maguire plays it so well, dancing in the streets, those scenes are just so golden
Topher Grace really proved he could play this character, there were some doubts because he is not a muscular guy like the character in the comics was but he does it wonderfully, the comedy he’s given is weak but that really doesn’t matter. The Venom character when it takes over Brock is not really what the comics has, its really more like the cartoon from the 1990’s but it works really well and fits the tone of the film. Sandman just looks plain awesome in this picture, they really made him look like what he did in the comics, with a few updates
The comedy in this film is just plain great, characters like Jameson will have you in tears because you will be laughing so hard. Jameson’s first scene is absolutely wonderful
The action is great, and the thing about the action in this movie is that it is not overdone, this movie does not have too many action scenes, they really do focus on the story more then the action, which was really great
There is also a lot of drama, this is one of few movies, mainly comic book movies, that almost brought me to tears because the acting is so good, if someone doesn’t get an Oscar, i’ll be angry, lol. The story actually brings the truth on how Ben Parker dies, which was so well done. Mary Jane and Peter Parker’s relationship goes through so many turns (and a very unexpected moment happens in a jazz club were M.J. works when Peter is fighting guards in the club). The story with Harry and Peter, The Sandman’s story, Aunt May also has some emotional moments in this. It is all so wonderfully acted that you will feel like crying
Overall, a 10 out of 10, i loved this film, and i wouldn’t mind seeing this several more times in theaters.

“Runaway Bride” Plot Summary
A reporter is assigned to write a story about a woman who has left a string of fiances at the altar. add synopsis
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.

“Talladega Nights” Plot Summary
#1 NASCAR driver Ricky Bobby stays atop the heap thanks to a pact with his best friend and teammate, Cal Naughton, Jr. But when a French Formula One driver, makes his way up the ladder, Ricky Bobby’s talent and devotion are put to the test.
Will Ferrell at his best.
Will Ferrell at his best
Seriously Here, Ferrell plays a good ole country boy with rocks for brains and only one worry in the world and that’s winning. Sound like a familiar past TV character of his? Ferrell is also a Writer on this film with Director Adam McKay, who together have made a solid comedy team since those SNL days, including 2004’s ‘Anchor Man.’ But standing just as tall in this picture is the surprising man-about-town, Mr. Sasha Cohen (Borat, Ali G, Bruno) as Ricky Bobby’s French nemesis, Jean Girard. This guy is such a great character actor it was difficult to even spot him at first. But who else would be brave enough to kiss Ferrell on the lips?www.manwithavan.blogspot.com

“The Cable Guy” Plot Summary
A lonely and disturbed cable guy raised on television just wants a new friend, but his target, a designer, rejects him, with bad consequences.
My Favorite 90’s movie!
Well in my opinion one of my favorite movies ever. The humor is 90’s and a lot of people don’t like that. I grew up with this movie, and I loved it ever since. Jim Carey is my favorite actor, and to see him so dark and creepy just makes me like him even more. His performance was outstanding. I do recommend this to anyone who loves Jim Carey, 90’s, and great twist. This movie also includes an outstanding cast that we still see today such as Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller. This movie is just too awesome, I don’t know why the critics didn’t like it, but this movie just was not marketed well like it should have. Everyone in the movie was outstanding and I just wish this movie got more because it was very good and 90’s. Just watch the movie, you might not like the humor but you will love the story and movie!

“Hostage” Movie Review
“Hostage” Plot Summary
A failed police negotiator turned small town cop, must save the lives of a family held hostage, which draws him into a much more dangerous situation.
Bruce is BACK!!!
There will be no negotiation, Bruce Willis is back, back doing what he was born to do – run around looking worried whilst stylishly blowing baddies away and I for one am very happy!! Ever since Die Hard (incidentally my favourite film), Bruce Willis has been the ‘everyman’ action hero of choice. If you’re in a jam with serious bad-ass criminals, be it robbers, assassins or even intergalactic tyrants he’s the ‘the guy’ you’ll want on your side. So if you’re family were ever to be taken hostage by scumbags and it looked like gun play would be necessary, Bruce should be the only call you make.
So here’s Hostage, the first English language film of hotshot French director Florent Siri. You might not have seen his last film ‘The Nest’ – it was a tense action thriller that covered similar themes (fear, mental suffering, empathy, cowardice). Anyway, Hostage is another deliciously dark tale of crime and retribution – you know how it goes – dumb but dangerous kids take family hostage, then realise that they may have gotten over their heads when it turns out that the dad is actually the accountant for a seriously shady bunch of crims. Bruce plays local Sheriff Jeff Talley who used to be a hostage negotiator but was dismissed for letting a young family get butchered by one of the kidnappers he failed to ‘talk down’.
Things get more complicated when the shady crims take Talley’s family hostage and force him to try and retrieve something from the under siege house. It’s a good set up but it wouldn’t have worked as just a standard Hollywood ‘production line’ action film. This is why Siri is directing – he’s definitely ‘one to watch’ because he lovingly creates a film that oozes style, brutal violence and has characters that you can’t help finding interesting.
Credit should go to most of the cast too, Foster delivers an iconic teen psycho, 17 year old Michelle Horn lives up to her name as the daughter in peril and Kevin ‘voice actor from Ewoks: The Battle for Endor’ Pollak is good as the dad.
But this is Bruce’s film and he should be proud of it, he should also work with Siri again if he gets chance as the guy is quality and I can’t wait to see what he does next!!

“Milk” Movie Review
“Milk” Plot Summary
The story of Harvey Milk, and his struggles as an American gay activist who fought for gay rights and became California’s first openly gay elected official.
Eye opening and heart breaking regardless of age or sexual preference
Born and raised in a southern, catholic community, I saw that homosexuals were always grouped with prostitutes and rapists in our religion books. Something didn’t quite sit right with me when I saw this ever since I was very young. The anti gay feelings abound in a small southern city, and, although I myself am straight, I was always in the minority of gay right supporters
Van Sant’s Milk could not have come at a better time in my life. This movie is a transcendent bio pic, and an inspiration to me now and forever. In my theater, a packed crowd with an average age of about 60 gathered. (I found this interesting, why so many seniors? Was it guilt?) The film exceeds both as a touching biography and a bold social statement. Van Sant really does what Alfred Hitchcock so famously did, and ‘played the audience like a piano’. We laughed, we thought, and came out of the theater a little bit more in tune with reality. I was the youngest in the theater by about 40 years, so I saw from an outside looking in at what this film really did
So much has been said about how well made the film is that anything else would be redundant, but the praise is well deserved. Penn should be a top runner for Best Actor, as he completely disappears into his character. Another actor that was an absolute thrill to watch in this movie was Emile Hirsch, who was fantastic
So emotionally wrenching, it will stand the test of time. It is so powerful because everyone knows someone that’s gay and someone that’s a bigot. The best movie of the year I’ve seen.
