Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)

Now I wanted to see this due to its prequelness
How did it become a Planet of the Apes?
it all apparently started with a brilliant young scientist played
by James Franco who is the leading expert in all things
to do with the brain as he works to solve and cure the mystery's
of Alzheimer's disease. What he is doing is very noble and
come from the heart because he wants to save his father
(played by John Lithgow) from the crippling disease.

He Develops a cure which seems to work on a Ape which
has been dubbed "Bright Eyes" but after and tragedy
in the lab they loose the ape, but Franco is left
with a small baby ape who is the new born son
of "Bright Eyes" Franco's character brings the
baby ape home to his ill fathers delight and
the two of them name the small chimp Caesar.

They soon find out how special this lil chimp
is as the experimental drug has been passed on
from mother to son and as Caesar's intelligences
grow the two men begin to raise his as a human child.

As Caesar becomes more intelligent by the day
and proves how much of a miracle the drug is
Franco's character uses it on his father which
in turn reverses the effect of Alzheimer's
for a short time.

After a incident with a neighbor involving
Caesar and his growing curiosity Faranco's
character along with his new Girlfriend and
veterinarian Caroline Aranha (played by Freida Pinto)
come to the decision that it is not right to
keep Caesar cooped up in the house and decided
to take him to a local national park and
show Caesar the beauty of the world and
and what it is like to be...free.

But sadly not everything goes so smoothly
as Caesar begins to question his place in
"Man's World" as well as the
treatments no longer having any effect
on Franco's father and after a second
incident with a neighbor Caesar
is taken from everything he has know
and is put in a Animal shelter.

Caesar quickly becomes displeased with humanity
and feels as though Franco's character has turned
his back on him even though he does do everything
he can to bring him home. Caesar rises to the
head of the other apes and starts a revolt while at
the same time franco tries to fix his
miracle cure with disastrous results...

First off I though this was an amazing movie.
it is truly one of the best of the year.
I liked how they included things such as lines and
saying from the original films. The acting
on this was no less then perfect. I really enjoyed
the performances from everyone especially
Andy Serkis who truly brought the ape of
Caesar to life. The writing was very good and
there was some "monkey business" going on
as in some jokes by the CG Apes.
But I would have to say the effects were
breathtaking and showed true emotion in their
presentation and animation.

Now I did want to say that the neighbor guy was a
real jerk. I felt that he was a total hot head in
both instances with Caesar. The first
one where he was going to hit him with the bat was
in my view uncalled for.
Also for the second with the car was as well he should
know that the old man (John Lithgow) was not well and
has Alzheimer's and that is no reason to be a jerk to him
Also true having Alzheimer's is not excuse either but still
the guy next door could have been a little more understanding.
As for Caesar attacking him well Caesar was protecting
his "family" from someone who was being overly aggressive
and yes that is no excuse either but still
I think the guy next door brought it upon himself.

Also the young guy at the animal sanctuary I believe he got what
he deserved as well. he was the greatest example of being a jerk.
If you want respect from the animals you have to show them respect.
that is why Caesar didn't want the other young guy hurt becasue he
didn't do anything to the apes unlike the one that was spraying
them with the hose and using the cattle prods on them.

Now even though this movie had a good story and I enjoyed
it, it does leave mw with a lot of questions..
mainly how does this fit into either version of "Planet of the Apes"?
it doesn't seem to line up with either the Charlton Heston version
or the Tim Burton version featuring Mark Wahlberg.

Both take place in the future where both Heston and Wahlberg
are space explores who get sucked into a lets say
"Time Anomaly" which shoots them into a even further future
where earth is apparently ruled by a society of super
intelligent talk apes.
But then again this movie take place in present day...
How does this fit into the already established continuity?
Personally I thought this in a way synced up with
the Tim Burton version best due to the ending of that film.
and I was told there was a scene in after the initial credits
so I thought you would see the main ape from Burton's appear in the
POD and changing the past leading to the end of Burton's version but
that didn't happen instead you get a somewhat explanation on how
the human population declines, but that still doesn't explain
how the intelligent apes from San Fransisco get to places like
Australia and Japan? Also how do you get back to the first
film? Where astronauts crash on "the planet of the Apes"?
If your really paying attention there is new footage on a
TV in the background about the first maned mission to Mars and then
in a following scene you see a Newspaper headline saying the
shuttle has been lost in space. Which you could say is an
explanation and how this links up but I feel that it is so off
to the side and "blink and you'll miss it" that is feels more like
they are just covering their ass story wise then anything else.

But other then that is this an amazing movie and is worth seeing
it has a good story, some nice action and amazing effects. you shouldn't
be dis a pointed.

Cowboys and Aliens (2011)

Now the title alone screams watch me!
So I had to, I thought the concept of this was
very interesting and different and I wanted to
see how this all worked out.

Now I have said to people many times that
I'm not a big fan of westerns probably because
they were pretty much before my time. Now I have
watched plenty of westerns but they just never clicked
with me, I'm a child of Star Wars and like my
"space stories" as the older generation calls them.
I'm more Buzz Lightyear then Sheriff Woody.
Now I seen some interesting movies
similar to this so it is not a totally new idea but still
as I said interesting and different.

As for the movie itself I thought it was pretty good, I felt it became
better as it moved along and you had the chance to learn more about
the characters and the situation. I felt that it focused on
pretty much i would say classic character archetypes.
but that is not a bad thing.

Also at the first of the movie I felt the dialog and acting was very
stiff and what what staticey but the movie looses this as it progresses.
There was some slight "action movie" humor that gave me a chuckle.

Overall I thought the acting was pretty good I thought it was a
bit funny watching Harrison Ford as a villain around the first of the film.
he seemed to really play it up, but I did like alot of the moments he shared
with Daniel Craig. I also like the performance by Olivia Wilde (Quorra from
Tron: Legacy) she is somewhat mysterious and you don't find out her true
purpose until the middle of the movie.

Like I said there was some nice humor, one of the best jokes is when the
characters find out what the aliens want and Ford's Characters reaction
to it is very funny. Speaking of aliens I did like the creature designs
in this I thought it was very cool and liked the look of the creatures
I would have to say I was impressed by them they had a nice design
and I did thing the "chest arms" that they had were a very cool idea.

I also liked the designs of the little ships or "scout ships"
that would snatch up the people I thought those had a very unique look.
The visual effects, the stunts and the action were all nicely done.
Even the music was very good.

I have to say I enjoyed the film and if your looking for something
fun, entertaining with a little different concept then give this a try.

Colombiana 2011

I had a More detailed review of Colombiana but
sadly I can't seem to find the Text Document that it was
typed up in... but anyway I hope this is good enough:

I would have to say I really enjoyed this film I seen
the few trailers that were shown and I thought
that it might be a good movie and I wasn't wrong.
The story basically follows the character of
Cataleya (played by Zoe Saldana who played Neytiri
from Avatar) it starts out as she is a little
girl and her father is working undercover for the
US government, and he is found out and
he and his wife are killed but Cataleya escapes and makes her way to the US embassy
and from there to the US to live with her Uncle who is actually a high level Hitman.

With revenge in her heart and mind, re reluctantly trains her to become an
assassin for hire known as "Colombiana", when she is older she starts picking off
various people in hopes that the people who killed her family surface, which they
eventually do and she begins to take them out one by one until she gets up to the
head boss.

Like I said this was a really good movie, I enjoy and support the female
action heroes. I find they at times can be just as good if not better
then a movie staring a Male lead. I liked the various scenes
where you can see her struggling to lead a "normal"
while at the same time persuading this job of killing
people for money. It was very interesting to see the conflict
between her having a day to day life and her job.

I also thought that the acting was very well done as well
as alot of the action and stunt work, was pretty impressive
especially the whole sequence in the police station.
I thought that was pretty cool.

In the end I thought this was a very good action movie
and also a really good revenge story as well it was some what
classic in a way but it didn't feel like it was, it felt like a whole
new concept.

If I were to sum this movie up and relate it to something
I would say it was similar to The Punisher (2004)
being that it had almost the similar themes.
but like i said I thought it was really well done and was a very good watch.

Super 8 (2011)

Now I wanted to see this being that the trailers looked
amazing and it just captured my attention. I must say that
if you go into this looking for a straight out Horror film you
might be somewhat disappointed. I can't really say that
this is a Horror picture I know it might seem that way from
the trailers and that but what it actually is...Is a
Thriller/Mystery that becomes
a out of this world adventure.

The film itself takes place in the 60s-70s and revolves about
a group of preteens/teens who are trying to make a monster
movie in there small sleepy little town
after the tragedy of the main characters mother. Its gets his mind off his loss
and spends time with his friends doing this project. This is all going as planed
until they are filming at the wrong place at the wrong time... when a train
is detailed caring a alien creature who just wants to go home and has some
sort of Electrical powers to go with its impressive size is accidentally unleashed
on the unsuspecting town. the young film makers go from making a monster movie
to being in one, as the military rolls in to try to capture the creature.

While at the same time the small group of friends must race again time to
save one of there own who was taken by unknown being from beyond the stars.

I must say I did enjoy film quite a bit it had that spookiness about it
with some jumps and scares along the way but also had some wonderful humor
that was all in the writing as well as some very nice action
it also had some nice touching scenes also having to do with understanding,
forgiveness and letting things go so that you can move on.

This was indeed very well crafted nicely shot and edited. The music was
prefect where it needed to be. The acting was very good and very believable
these kids were absolutely perfect. the action was fast and quick
and the effects were truly impressive.

The train crash I think was the main set piece of the movie itself and
that alone carries the wow effect. I was so amazed by that alone.

As for the creature you don't get to see it much at the start you
see a flash here and a glimpse there, a reflection or a swish of a
tail (it looked like it had some sort of tail) but as the movie rolls
on you get to see more and more an arm, the torso I think that this
piece by piece was very good way of doing this. You don't get to see
it close up pretty much until the very end. The only problem I thought
was its color its a smoky black and its usually in low light that you
see the creature. sure that makes it more mysterious and would hide
any possible imperfection in the creature design but on the other hand
it makes it harder to see it in full detail.

but you see enough were your satisfied with what you saw so its not
a real dower. But with that said this movie was fun, fast had humor and
heart. I don't want to say to much if you haven't seen it and you should.

Also stay and watch the credits you actually get to see the completed
film the kids made which is funny and adds to this films over all charm.

The Roommate (2011)

Well I remember seeing the ads for this and
thinking it would probably be similar to films
like "Single White Female"
which I wasn't wrong.

Your basic story revolves around a girl named Sarah
(or Sara if you prefer) who is from a somewhat small
town who came to The University of LA to study
fashion design. She rooms up with a girl who at the
start seem a little be eccentric at first by the name
of Rebecca the two become friends but
as the story unfolds Rebecca becomes a little
bit more unhinged..

you can tell first off that this is going to be a slow
decent down when Rebecca is not very social and feels
possessive of Sarah when others are around.
and you can tell she is pretty crazy when she does her first
crazy thing by do the thing with the ear rings and not even flinching.

While Sarah is out doing the college things new life and new friends
Rebecca becomes more and more obsessed and stalkerish.
She even starts to eliminate and attack those who would
threaten her and Sarah's relationship.

Attacking the girl in the shower and the Teacher as well
and disposing of the poor little kitten! what was done
to the kitten wasn't the nicest thing.

You can tell Rebecca has gone completely nuts when she takes
out the knife and cuts her stomach with it after beating
herself up. In the end it has a classic ending the 2 girls
fight it out and one looses.

all in all the movie wasn't even scary. it did get slightly creepy
after Sarah finds out that Rebecca is not the greatestt person in
the world. the movie does use familiar things so it wasn't
very new if you see it all before. I can see some direct to
video sequels in this movies future.

two thing I notice though was Sarah's boyfriend Stephen
reminded me of Ryan Reynolds and that they actually used
Wikipedia in this and not something made up like "Infoshare"
like a lot of movies do. anyway this movie was ok but like I said
it was seen all before.

Scream 4 (2011)

Ah...Scream 4.
Well at first I thought this was never going to get made
and why should it? The series ended, The final chapter
took place and the Trilogy was caped off.

It was a good ending and Sydney was at peice with her
life. All was good then it happened..Scream4.
Why do we need a Scream 4?
The series was over and all was good or was it?

Now I didn't have much faith in Scream 4
"they'll ruin it!" I said "How will they do this with out
making it stupid?!?" I said. and the time came and
it was released and of course I went to see it...
Hoping against hope they didn't ruin it and I didn't have much faith in this movie
I was dredging it when the Dimension Films logo appear and the film started
and I watched....

Now I have to say, I was pretty impressed with the film..!!
that's right all my fears melted away while watching it, The film itself was
extremely thought out and very well put together.
From the opening scene which alone was amazing and funny, The story
captures you and you actually are left thinking: who is it? who is the Killer?
and the answer will surprise you.

Not only do the 3 main cast members return but you also have a few
more famous faces that you can see as well such as Anna Paquin, Kristen Bell,
Hayden Panettiere and Anthony Anderson to name a few.

Now even though this movie takes place 10 years after Part 3 the
original cast even though they look older don't miss a beat.
but some funny thing about the original cast that stood out
was Courteney Cox's face looks weird for the first part of the film.
people say she had a face lift and well it kind of shows, her face
looks lit it was stretched and she looks all weird.
Also Dewy's (David Arquette) limp and all that is gone?
I guess after 10 years nerve damage just disappears?
he must have had some amazing physiotherapy going on
becasue hey I'm no doctor but I wouldn't think after the
pretty much spinal nerve damage he suffered in the previous films
he would have the type of mobility he has in this one..
but then again that is just my opinion.

Anyway back to the the story of this film I would
have to say it is like half sequel and half remake in away
where it touches on all the elements of the original 3 films
while in introducing new things and new ideas.
It was I would have to say brilliantly written
all the referances and in jokes made me smile and laugh.

This film was well crafted and truly made for the fans
with plenty of love and I personally would like to thank
Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson for it.

As for the kills they were nicely done nothing over the top
or gory but they fit well in this film. The music was good
and welcomed and you can here the original theme
from the original movies in this as well.

but in the end I would have to say after all my fears and
all my doubts I was truly pleased with how this turned out.
All i can say if you were a fan of the original trilogy then give this
one a watch I don't think it will let you down.

Sucker Punch! (2011)

Hmmm...How to talk about Sucker Punch?
its an oddly interesting movie but where do I
start? maybe at the beginning? sounds good!

First off I have to say I liked the opening logos in
the s curtans that was a classy touch I really liked that.
Now after the it has a quick start there isn't
anything spoken its all done with music which was
really cool all the music in this is pretty good it has an
amazing soundtrack but the music
fits everything as in what the characters are doing.

Now back to the start I liked the way the opening title
was displayed in the rain.
now I thought the story in the beginning was kinda wonky
like they were in the asylum then Bang they were
dancing girls in some club? I was wondering if I missed something or what?

Now I wrapped my mind around it quick becasue I thought maybe the music in the female
doctors treatments hypnotized or created this mass artificial world of the dance club..or
this was just the way that the character "Baby Doll" used to escape what was happening
to her in the asylum, but then that doesn't explain the action sequences...

I felt Sucker Punch was a movie similar to the likes of the Matrix and Inception where
it is all a dream with in a dream.. Also it has alot of Alice in Wonderland type of Ideas in
it and brings forth the "are you the dreamer of merely part of someone elses dream" type
of questions.

Now much like the music the action in this was purely amazing! as where the
visual effects I would have to say that this was pretty much a live action anime
as far as the action and effects go.
Also the action sequences had everything you could ever want.
Hot girls kicking ass, shooting guns, doing sword fights and Kung - Fu
Nazi Robot Zombies (yeah you hear me!) Dragons, Mechanized Robot Battle suits,
Giant Demon Samurai and pretty much anything else you could thing of...

Now personally I would have to say that is was like I said an oddly interesting movie
it is one of those movies where you like certain parts of it but not others
I felt that the action/adventure scenes were more interesting then the rest of
the film... Also this movie is a bit confusing becasue it seems to be taking place
in 3 different locations which are the Asylum, the Dance club and the "Dream scape"
where all the action happens when the character of "Baby Doll" dances
and speaking of which I don't fully understand the purpose of the dancing...
its one of the odd things about the film where she dances and everyone is transported
to this "Dream scape" This movie is one of those movies where the lines between reality
and fantasy blur. It seems to have an odd message about standing up for yourself and also
comes with some what of a bitter sweet ending..

I would have to say that it is a pretty Decent and some what
enjoyably fun movie but I also think it needs repeat viewings to truly
understand it.

I am Number 4 (2011)

I remember seeing a few trailers and promo material
for this and thought it would be interesting and then I
actually heard some people saying that it was pretty good.

Now I have to agree with them, I myself thought it
was very good the story is as follows:

Extraordinary teen John Smith (Pettyfer) is a fugitive on the run from ruthless enemies sent to destroy him. Changing his identity, moving from town to town with his guardian Henri (Olyphant), John is always the new kid with no ties to his past. In the small Ohio town he now calls home, John encounters unexpected, life-changing events-his first love (Agron), powerful new abilities and a connection to the others who share his incredible destiny.

While watching it it felt very Superman or "Smallvilleish"
(probably due to the fact the screenplay was written by
Alfred Gough,Miles Millar)
where as in the guy was the last of his kind, he world
was destroyed and he is a Alien who wants to just be human..

Now don't get me wrong the movie being similar to Smallville
is not a bad thing being that I am or should I say was a
fan of the show, but it did remind me of it in that way
that it was very low key for a "Superhero/Sci-fi" movie.
Where its focused more on the story and the characters rather then
the powers and the epic battles. Don't get me wrong this film for all its
steady pace does have some actually spectacular stunts and action
as well as some very slick special effects, I liked how the main villains
the Mogadorian or "Mogs" looked but in a way they reminded me of the
"Kromagg " from the series "Sliders" also the giant lizard creatures
near the end were very cool I did like their design.
I also liked how the powers were used in this they aren't showy but
very good and fit in well with the rest of the film.

I thought the direction and the editing were very well done the writing
had a few cheesy lines but it is hardly noticeable
some might think the story was predictable but I didn't feel that
way. I also thought the acting was well done and they conveyed
great emotion in their parts. The explanation of what is going on
and why was good it didn't leave me with any questions.
All in all I enjoyed this one and wouldn't mind seeing the story continue.

GAMER (2009)

This was a movie that had an interesting idea
as well as an interesting opening.

The film is where people almost have this
"Matrix like world set up" were video games
are played with real people as in people on the
outside of the game area control the people
on the inside of the control area.

They have this Playstation Home/Sims type of
set up which is called "Society" where you control
an actual person much like you would an avatar in the
Sims or PS Home.

Now even though that was apart of the story and world
of this film it focused more on the First Person shooter
aspect with games like Modern Warfare and Call of Duty
Now i would have to say that it does a good job of
capturing the "in game environment" with slow motion
scenes at points and the action as well as movement
of the characters including the NPC's (Non Playable
characters) for you not in the know.
Now the story revolves around Gerard Butler's character
has he is convicted of a crime and sentenced to the
"Game grind" so to speak and if he wins so many times
he will be set free and reunited with his family
and with the help of his "User" as well as others
such as Ludacris who comes off as a second rate
Morpheus.

The film in general reminded me of things like
the Running Man and The Condemned they share
that same Idea Where the "I-cons" as they are
called in this film are put in to some life or
death game situation where they must fight
their way out and the winner gets their freedom
but in this film the "players" are controlled
by an outside force in almost like a Xbox Kinect
type of set up.

I also found that the camera work and the
editing were a bit off it was alot of fast
cuts, zooms, pans and crazy popping visuals.
Alot of the movies action tries to be
stylized but I found it failed and just
ends up giving you whiplash.

Now some of the other action that wasn't all crazy
was pretty good and there was some actiony humor as well
one of the scenes that I found funny was the
interrogation one about the Sandwiches.

this movie also had I thought alot of famous faces
and of course it did have some nudity as well.
but as always if you watch this just for that then
your going to be let down.

Also some other things that were not good was I felt
the thing about the huge naked fat guy controlling the
sex woman in the "society" game was a bit cliche...

Also the dance sequence around the end of the movie was
a bit odd.. also How does puking in the gas tank of a
truck make it go?
anyway the movie was an ok action film but
in a way it seems like you see it all before when
it comes to things like the story.

Monsters (2010)

Now I wanted to see this for a while I remember seeing the very first trailers
for this and thinking wow! this looks so cool! so I recently had a chance to
view this film and I have to say I am somewhat disappointed.

First off the opening text was very slick and gave a good
explanation about what is going on in the film.

you basic Storyline is as follows:

Six years ago NASA discovered the possibility of alien life within our solar system. A probe was launched to collect samples, but crashed upon re-entry over Central America. Soon after, new life form began to appear and half of Mexico was quarantined as an INFECTED ZONE. Today, the American and Mexican military still struggle to contain "the creatures"...... Our story begins when a US journalist agrees to escort a shaken tourist through the infected zone in Mexico to the safety of the US border.

Now the film did have an explosive start but then quieted right down
sadly for a film called Monsters there wasn't very many in this movie
I was expecting alot more action and maybe some frights but this had
none of that really. Like I said it had an explosive start
where it showed them quickly fighting one of the creatures. then you
don't really seen another creature again until an hour later
and then again about 20 mins after that.

I can't really comment on the creature design, you never get a
a really good look at them, they only appear at night time in
the dark you never see them walking about in the daylight
I would have like to have gotten a good look at them.
I can't even tell you what they are they looked like giant
squids with crab legs. I thought there would be all different
sizes and shapes of creatures running around but there is just
these giant crab legged squids things...?

Now the movie itself was alright, I felt the acting
to be very believable and realistic as these two people
made there way to the US border. it didn't feel scripted
it was just like 2 people just talking in general and
getting to know each other.

One of the things I thought was funny was the scene with
the ferry tickets where the guy is like it will cost $5000
dollars I was thinking that's alot. and then the "ferry man "
is talked down to $3000 by the male lead Andrew Kaulder (played
by Scoot McNairy) also who names there child Scoot?
anyway.. that night he and female lead Samantha Wynden
(played by Whitney Able) head out on the town and get drunk
as she goes back to her room and his advances are shot down
he goes out and gets more drunk! why is this important?
well lets just say after getting drunk he ends up having
"a problem" with their passports and they have to go back
to the "ferry man " who tell them no passport no ferry
yes this is even after they have payed this guy the money!

So they ended up with the option stay there for 6 months
or pay this guy $10,000 now!(crazy I know) for someone to take
them threw the "infected zone" they end up working something out
and they are off.

Now there isn't really much going on in the "infected zone"
you would think this would be crawling with creatures
but nope they just mosey on through.
there was a scene where they are on a boat and it breaks down
in the middle of the river at night fall. and there is an
eerie scene with a submerged fighter jet which was somewhat cool
and then they are on their way again.

One of the nice things about this is while they are
going through the the "infected zone" there are plenty
of nice scenery shots which were very impressive.
they have their Monster encounter and that doesn't last long
and that is about it.

Once back in the US there is a scene with some crazy
homeless woman which was kind of strange and kinda funny.

Now like I said I was somewhat disappointed with this I
didn't think it was as good as I thought it would be
I thought there would probably be more creatures and more
action and just generally more going on.
I did like how the 2 main actors fit together I felt that it
was good casting and that they made a good couple.

I just wish this movie had more. it was alright but I
probably wouldn't watch it again.

Salt (2010)

I had wanted to see this for a while it did look good from the various
trailers and TV spots I seen so I wanted to give it a chance.
and I finally did. I would have to say the opening scene was a bit crazy
but you quickly move past it and I would have to say I did like
the opening title it was pretty cool.

Now this film is some what of an action/ spy thriller
that has plenty of twists and turns. through out the
back story you find out that Russia had created a program
to turn out the ultimate spy (who turns out to be Angelina Jolie)
in kinda of a "Reverse Captain America" type of way
now that might not be an accurate way of putting it but that is
what came to my mind when I thought about it.
Now with this super spy they plan to trigger a
series of events that will probably bring about World War 3
as Salt (Jolie) races against time to to figure out this
mystery and prove her innocence.

This also stars Liev Schreiber (who I always refer to as Cotton Weary, lol)
and he seems to have nice chemistry with Jolie in this film when
they share a scene together. which was pretty cool.

Now I felt there was some predictable things in this film
while watching it. I was thinking "such and such is going to do this"
and they did. I'm not going to tell you which scenes I found predictable
I just want you to enjoy this film.

Now like I said this was very action packed and it does have some great
action in it some nice fights and stunts such as Jolie scaling the
apartment building and descending the elevator shaft as well as
the jumping from vehicle to vehicle on the free way.
that was all pretty cool. I also think she can pretty much still
kick plenty of ass.

this also had some nice make-up effects the part where she was
dressed and made to look like a man was pretty impressive.

I also didn't see the twist coming near the end.
which was pretty good. this also had some nice music to it as well

One thing that bugged me while watching this was in the initial
chase scene I was wondering "what does she have on her feet" while
she was running through the city and it seemed like she was wearing
some heeled boots? I would think if you were going to be running
for your life you would have something less strenuous on your feet
something like sneakers but I guess not. also I thought she would
cut her hair at some point after or before she dyed it.. they would be looking
for someone with her hair length and then it wouldn't be whipping all over the
place but I guess that's just me..

anyway this was a pretty good movie like I said it had some nice
action and a good story that does keep you interested.

Devil (2010)

Now I kind of wanted to see this it looked pretty good
and I would say it was a pretty good movie, I did enjoy it
Now I'm not going to say to much about it I don't want to give
anything away. I do have to say it was a very nice mystery.
That kept you guessing. I did like the opening monologue and the
voice overs that followed. The opening title sequence where
everything is upside down was a nice touch and somewhat symbolic
of what the film was about. The film was beautifully scored
the music was excellent and very ominous and suited this
perfectly. I would have to say it was well written and well acted
and did have some nice camera work the down side is that it wasn't
really scary but instead supremely creepy and pushed the bounds
of paranoia which was really good. the film also had a nice climax
and a good twist it wasn't who I expected but the end almost reminded
me of the same feeling you had gotten the first time you seen Seven
staring Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman. This was a good one you don't know who to
trust and everything is not what it seems. Now like I said it was a nice thriller and a
good mystery so give it a try.
