It’s been too long! I am sorry if I have let anyone down! I have seen tree films in the last week Knowing, Duplicity and Monsters Vs Aliens.
KNOWING- Please save yourself and do not waste your time on this film! I don’t know if anyone out there feels the same way, but it seems like Nicholas Cage is constantly revisiting the same roles. Here Nicolas Cage plays a widower and a father to a young child I would
guess about 9 years old. He also is a professor at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) specializes in the solar system. I will say the first half was really good, kept you on the edge of your seat and special effects and sound was amazing! Then it just goes downhill, over dramatized and I hate to give anything away but once the Aliens show up it’s over. I can say that I am still laughing about the final scene! In my perspective, from a religious aspect I would say that this film was developed by some type of Scientology perspective. If you do want a good laugh waste your money on this film, but I say save your money and wait for a TV special or something!
DUPLICITY- I love
d this film! What a great way for Julia Roberts to make a comeback! This film reminded me somewhat of the Ocean’s 11 series, with the flashbacks and the show all at the end. Tony Gilroy directed and wrote this, along with the Bourne Identity Trilogy. It kept my mind trying to figure it out and was very entertaining.
The film starts out in honestly one of the best openings I have seen for awhile with Tom Wilkinson and Paul Giamatti both walking out of their own private jets and onto the tarmac. They have a silent by visual confrontation and fighting breaks out all the time with just facial expressions and no words, just back round music. Clive Owen and Julia Roberts both play secret spies who reunite to help try to take down a leading pharmaceutical company by giving out their “secret” new invention. Between the flashbacks the comedic action and secrecy I would completely recommend this film, I even bought popcorn for this one!
MONSTERS VS ALIENS- What a heartwarming cute film! This film was from the maker’s of Shrek and Kung Fu Panda, and they hit another one out of the ballpark! With an all-star cast of giving amazing comedic talents and great voice over’s, I would gladly see this again, and in 3-D. When Susan Murphy (voice of Reese Witherspoon) is about the get
married to Derek (Voice of Paul Rudd), she is struck by a meteorite and grows to extreme size. She is captured and sent to “monster prison” where she meets Dr. Cockroach PhD (voice of Hugh Laurie), The Missing Link (Voice of Will Arnett) and my favorite B.O.B (voice of Seth Rogan). When the Alien Gallaxhar (voice of Rainn Wilson) finds that Susan contains the coveted chemical that will make all of his dreams come true he send robotic alien to capture her. The meeting of the Alien is greeted by President Hathaway (voice of Stephan Colbert) it turns into a mini Axel-F concert and the realization that they cannot take down this alien without the help of the “monsters”.
The graphics alone on this film was amazing, a new touch from the other recent films produced by DreamWorks as well as Pixar. My favorite scenes in this film was with B.O.B. he added great comedic relief and left you wanted more! His lines was something you will remember for a long time to come and my favorite was him falling in love with the Jell-O! Take your kids to go see this and enjoy the time to forget abut everything else going on in the world!
