Release Date:22 March 2012
Stars: Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth and Woody Harrelson

Memorable quote:
President Snow: Hope, it is the only thing stronger than fear. A little hope is effective, a lot of hope is dangerous. A spark is fine, as long as it's contained.

What?
In a weird future, you have the rich and powerful and the poor and powerless. Years ago there was a rebellion by the poor; they lost, as punishment and as a constant reminder each year each district needs to give up one boy and one girls to participate in the hunger games, or better said modern televised gladiators. Those 24 lucky ones will fight to the death. They get sponsors; make up, cloth and training to become the best warriors and performers to build up the suspense the audience wants. May the odds be ever in your favor.

Yes?
I try always to rate a movie on different parameters, one of them is entertainment. Of course this can blur my vision and the actual quality of the movie. In this movie I was entertained, I didn’t think of anything else than this movie. I was in my seat leaving the moments, and not thinking, what else I could do with my time. So I guess this is a good sign.

So I guess this is a good sign.
I liked the story, I like the whole reality show factor, which of course already exist in other movies but this here had the whole package; Players, an arena, a producer, sponsors and winners. Before I entered this movie I was afraid that it’s going to be another childish movie for twelve year olds with the twilight Crazy concept. But for my astonishment it wasn’t. The movie had qualities, the story was actually interesting, and even after I left the cinema I was intrigued to know more about this whole weird little world these people live in. I felt for the players of this so called game of savagery. The scary part of course is, will we one day have to give up a child to play in a war game. Are we doing it already? Reality tv exists, the question is when will it go just
a bit spicier? Think about that.
The actors were good, loved Jennifer Lawrence she was amazingly mature and performed as of her life actually depended on it; I can only say great choice. Woody Harrelson is as always, funny and great to have on screen.
Of course the young black girl not sure of her name but she was amazing, I was sad when, … I won’t tell.
The beauty in the movie was the cruelty of children, everybody knows adults can be bad people but young children are even worse, I was a fat kid, believe me children are little monsters when we talk about teasing but killing and executing each other is another level. Don’t get me wrong I loved the fact that it was bloody, but when kids do it, it’s a bit different.
No?
I think the lesser part of this movie was how the whole thing was divided; I felt that the first part was too long, you have the first part, the introduction to this world, which of course is important, and then you have the games themselves. The introduction was too long for my taste and well I looked at my watch for once, I wanted the games to start.

Another problem was the Josh Hutcherson , I think he was just not good for the part. Secondly he is no “girl’s choice” kind of guy, I think he doesn’t suite the profile to be the hero in a romantic movie, as a straight married guy, I need to add.
BTW, what’s with the cheap special features,, your movie just earned around 500 million dollars, couldn’t you throw the explosions a bone.
Well…
As I said it before, this movie was entertaining as it was fun to watch. You got your money’s worth you could say. You could even watch it at the movies, it’s fun and refreshing and I can’t wait to see what the second part will bring us. I didn’t read the books, so don’t tell me if you see me. Because of all the above I grade this…

Total Recall, trailer!
Lately it became stylish to remake every movie, that had a good idea in the past but the effects were crap. That’s why Total recall gets a makeover. I must honestly say that haven’t watched the original one, possibly because I was 5 years old, I know that’s not a good excuse, but I looked at the trailer form this 1990 movie and I couldn’t figure out what this movie was about. It has something to do with the mind etc. So I must say that the trailer for the remake looks a lot better and we can actually try to understand something. So enjoy!
Colin Farrell looks like the guy we want for this one, the effects look amazing and I hope that the story will also bring us something to remember. As always be prepared!

American Reunion, Red band trailer!
I will keep it short, because I already talked about this upcoming movie; the problem is that it just looks great. The American Pie franchise peeked at the beginning and went downwards, you had all those stupid sequences which nobody watched until now, everyone is back, and I mean everyone. So I believe this will be the last trailer before the movie comes out so enjoy it.
Ok so I didn’t warn you it’s the Red band version, but who cares, looks amazing, and I cant wait for this to come out, as always be prepared!

Prometheus, trailer!
Everyone already heard of the 1979 movie called Alien and the franchise behind it. I actually didn’t watch it, maybe a couple of clips here and there but not the real thing. The good thing about great movies is that Hollywood love to recycle big successes. I don’t say this in a bad way, it’s just a fact. And when Ridley Scott takes matters in his own hands, things get messy. This movie below will come out around June this year, and in the science fiction world, this is a big deal. This movie is a prequel to the original movie, even though Ridley said that it doesn’t have a direct or perfect connection. Needless to say, the effects area amazing and I can guess the thrills are going to be crazy scary. So sit back and enjoy.
I told you, scary shit. I think especially the soundtrack here made this whole thing, into one big dark whole, scary and unpredictable. I will watch this at the movies for two reasons, one a classic reborn and the second reason if Ridley Scott decided to do a sequel I guess he put some effort in it. As always be prepared!

Review: warrior

Genres: Action | Drama | Sport
Release Date: 27 October 2011
Memorable quote: sorry but I just loved all off those
Frank Campana: You don't knock him out, you lose the fight. Understand me? You don't knock him out, you don't have a home.
&
Bryan Callen: I'll tell you what: you do that to someone on the street and they'd lock you up and throw away the key! Break out the yellow tape, Sam. Tommy's walking away from the cage like he's leaving a crime scene.
&
Frank Campana: You popped his shoulder? Good. I want you to pop his other shoulder.

Two brothers go on an epic journey to the truth of life. Tommy Riordan an ex-marine haunted by his past, comes back to his hometown, filled with rage and anger on everybody and everyone finding his arch enemy, his father and ex-coach and decides to compete in the tournament for the ultimate fighting champion, worth 5 million dollars, for honor and money. On the other side far away from this story we find Brendan a former MMA fighter about to lose his house to the financial crisis, and a job which doesn’t pay off his debts. His only choice is to get back in the ring and try to survive each round for his family. Both ways are bound to cross each other at the main event of the evening, may the better brother win or better said survive.

Yes?
Since I was much younger and I mean much younger I loved fighting movies, this included Rocky (1-4, the fifth I didn’t really like, karate kid, weird Kungfu movies and you can just go on and on) and honestly this love didn’t really change with the years, maybe the quality needs to be better and be more convenient, but when two people kick the crap out of each other this just keeps my adrenaline flowing. So as I said it this movie brings MMA, for those unfamiliar with this, Mixed Martial Arts, it brings you everything from Jujitsu, Karate, Wrestling, Kung Fu together, just name it, everything is here, and of course everything is allowed. Ok you have some minor rules, but you have the blood, brute force and adrenaline. You get the idea, this is some interesting field, but that’s only one of the reasons I loved this movie. The fighting scenes, the different styles of every fighter, made this as realistic as it can get. It looked real, when someone got knocked out I was actually cheering in front of my TV for my fighter, he just finds a place in

our hearts.
Feelings, I was afraid when I saw the trailer for the first time, I wasn’t sure how they will pull of the fact that the audience will need to choose one brother on behalf of the other. And dam if they didn’t do an awesome job by doing what they did. I don’t want to ruin anything here, but I think they made some good choices. I felt with the characters, maybe this was a fighting movie, but this was also a family drama, this brought us, love, fear and desperation all in one movie, and this is amazing.
The actors were just magnificent, the two brothers and the father couldn’t be any better. Tom Hardy, Nick Nolte and Joel Edgerton, just brought us a masterpiece.
No?
Besides the three heroes mentioned here above, I think some other performances could have been better, Jennifer Morrison, even though I’m a huge fan, could have done a better job.

And the more obvious problem in this movie is the cheesiness, we can’t go around it, it has to be there, even though they have minimized it as much as possible, it still was there.
Well…
First of all I’m sorry I review this so late, I wanted to watch it, but never came to it, big mistake on my part. If you haven’t watched it yet, this is the next movie you should watch, its hardcore with some major feelings, loved it. Because of all the above I grade this one…
