Cloverfield (2008)
Oh man stay away from this one
No....No....No.... I am so angry. I have never seen practically the whole theater full of people walk out of a movie so angry. This movie was horrible. The concept was a pretty good idea I guess, but the movie sucked. Okay so I waited 20 minutes in the beginning to see a whole bunch of people talking and drinking and seeing this guy behind the camera trying to hook up with this girl. And when the action really started, it was just like looking at a video of September 11th and the movie the mist. I could not believe J.J. It also seemed like the smaller creatures that would jump on people were the bugs stolen from Starship Troopers. Except that he made them smaller. Those small buts attacked like the bugs from the movie. And was J.J. serious by have that camera move so much. I mean yes I understand that we are suppose to be viewing the movie from the point of view of a guy who is running for his life but still!!!! After all, it is a movie, how are we suppose to follow what is going on when almost everything is blurry. Another thing, what the heck was up with that scene when they medics take the girl who was bitten behind the screen. Did she explode or did they shot her brains out. The movie sucked. I was very angry and disappointed. I know it was going to suck because it was rated pg-13 after all, but for it to suck that bad ....oh man. He should stick to the show lost and really get lost.
The Mist (2007)
This movie proves why Stephen King is the master
The movie was great!!!! When I heard this movie was going to come out I wanted to get the book and read it before I saw it since I know that books are always better then the movie. But after I saw the movie especially the ending, I'm glad I did not because I would have known how it ended. Even thougth I had an idea on how it would end, I was not 100% certain. At first when I saw the first monster attach the bag boy and I saw the special effect, I thought Oh no, not another bad Dreamcatcher bad special effects alien. But then when I saw the face on those mosquito and spiders, I was like cool!!! I loved this movie. I thought it was great. Yes one would say it had a lot of drag with all the talking, and yes maybe that's true, but still, the line in the movie was true, it shows how people react when put in that situation, when put in a position of having to decide "what should I do?", a situation of fear. I was so hopeful when they got in the car and tried to get out of the mist. I so wanted them to see clear land. That is what was so shocking to me, I was expecting them be free from the mist. I was shocked that the old man and women want to kill themselves. I could not believe that the father would kill his own son who he is suppose to protect against anything. How dare he end it. How dare he not try. But yes I would suppose that once they saw that huge creature at the end that that would have seem like that was it... that was the end of the world. But to think that in the end, if he just would have waited one more day, or stayed at the mall the 4 would have lived. But no, now the people in the mall are going to live. Can you believe that? The women who left the store early on and the people in the store are going to live and the man with his son, the women, and the 2 old couple who fought for their lives died. That is not fair. I think that father is not going to live that long anyway. I'm sure the grief of killing them will cause him to take his own life. If he just would have waited!!! As I left the movie I was depressed. But yet still amazed that King had the mind to still think of all these ideas. That is why he is great. I loved the praying mantis.
Berbagi Suami (2006)
It was okay
Saw the film in the tribeca film festival. The movie was okay. I liked it. I can't believe how common polygamy is. I can't believe how the women can accept their husband being with many women. I don't understand how in the movie the doctor, a smart intelligent women can accept her husband being with many wives. The movie has funny tones to it, music and a bit of a comedy. The second story was a bit crazy. So many kids, and I think the guy was the girls uncle. How sick is that.
I just don't know why she did not leave the house once she found out he was interested in having her as his third wife. The best story was the first. The third story was just a bit to nuts. Girl wanting money from a guy.... man.
War of the Worlds (2005)
The movie was alright.. but not the greatest and here is why.....
The movie was okay but not the greatest. Like everyone else, I loved the original. I went to see this version with the notion that it will be like the original except with a lot more special effects. However, I was a little disappointed. Number one, why did Steven Spielberg dress up Dakota like Drew Barrymore in by beloved movie of all time E.T., with that 79 style shirt with rainbow strips and fluffy jacket. Number two, if bacteria has been around for millions and millions of years, how did the aliens get to bury the machines on earth without dying. Number three, once the lighting hit the floor, everything went dead, the TV, phone, car, light. So how did the old guy in the intersection with the video camera (when the first machine rose near the church) have power to shoot the machine. The video camera should not be working. Number four, okay so you suck with the original a little bit, but the part where Ray had to kill Ogilvy was uncalled for. I mean yea, he had to be silenced so that he would not make noise, but come on, to kill him!!! I did not like that idea that the aliens buried the machines in the ground. It would have been a lot better if they came from outer space. Number five, I doubt very much that aliens foresaw the future in that humans would one day populate the earth. There is a line in which Ogilvy said "It's an extermination." Why would the aliens bury the machines to one day enter them to kill humans if they never even knew of their existence. Number six, did it not occur to anyone writing the script that Ray drove from NJ to somewhere upstate NY without stopping to get gas for the car even once. HA! When the hatch opened up in the end and the blood came out, why did it look orange. Come on in this day and age, you can make blood look so real... Just look at Dawn of the Dead =) Even thought I knew how the movie ended, it was kind of stupid to have Ray and his kids drive all over the east coast when the real lesson was to "Stay in your basement and wait it out until the bacteria killed the aliens." Do you know how many people would have lived. So, all in all, I was a bit disappointed with Steven's version. I expected more than this. I loved the original. Another reason why the original and classics should never be messed with or touched!!
The Devil's Miner (2005)
One of the best documentaries yet
The devil's minor is one of the best documentary I have seen yet. I saw it's premiere at the Tribeca Film festival April 28, 2005. I wanted to see as many Spanish movies at the festival as I could. This film was one of them. As I read the description of the movie, I thought it was interesting. When I saw that it was from both USA and Germany, I paused for a second and said Germany, okay! Watching the film, I give all respect and congratulations to both directors. They told the story of 14 year old Basilio, his brother and mother and their struggle to support the family so beautifully. I must say the film quality and shots were great especially under the cave. The way they shot the cave scenes, it made you feel as if you were Basilio working and walking inside the caves. This film was surprising. Being Spanish and catholic myself, I had no idea people would actually worship the devil for protection under the caves. I found it very odd and difficult to understand how the people would go to church and worship God one minute then turn around and worship the devil the next. I know that I am very LUCKY to have the things that I do, however, I believe watching this film will truly show people just how lucky they have it. Imagine working 24 hours a day in the USA and only earning 3 dollars. Imagine supporting 4 people on that. All that hard dangerous work just so that someone can walk to a store and buy that ring so put in their finger or earrings to wear in their ear. All the lives that are lost for that. Unimaginable. I strongly urge those in the position to help those that are not as fortunate to do so. The shots that were filmed, the sky, mountain, people were beautiful. Thank you Kief and Richard for showing us a part of Bolivia many of us were not aware of and have not seen. Thank you for taking the time after the movie to stay and talk to us to answer question what we had. Congratulations once again.
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)
My best movie ever
What can I not say about this movie. This movie is awesome. I LOVED IT!!!! I was six years old when this movie came out and my father(Jose) took us to see the movie. It was the only movie my father ever took us to see. What is funny about that is that it took about 16 years to figure out why this was the only movie he ever took the family to see. My father always loved and believed in aliens. 16 years later I realized he took us to see this movie because it was about an alien from outer space. I remember the ending of the movie. As we were leaving I was crying so much. I asked my father is he coming back and he said yes he will. (He told me that so I can stop crying). The movie is a pure classic 80's movie. It takes me back to being young, playing with all the toys that were our there are the time, the music, the clothes. Ahhh Great. I LOVE E.T.
Hitch (2005)
Very good
I love Will Smith. This movie was very surprising. Everyone who know me knows that I am the first to hate love sappy movies. However I decided to see this because it was filmed by my job. I liked this movie. Even if they did cut my scene out when I was standing across the street while Smith was catching a cab. They took a love sappy movie and made it into a really good funny movie. There were a lot of laughs here. And it was good that we were in a large theater to watch it. And see everyones reaction to the funny parts. Good lighting on trying to make NYC nice and clean. Do I consider it a movie to take a girlfriend during valentine's Day? Not really, but is is good for a few laughs. Good job Will.
Alexander (2004)
Bad movie.... good luck next time
This movie was awful. I mean, if you want a brief (though not really brief) history of what Alexander did in his life, watch it. Otherwise... DO NOT! This was the first time I watched a movie in a theater and was dying. I could not wait to get out of there. I was growing impatient. I am very disappointed in Oliver Stone. I loved, LOVED all his movies up until now. The film shots were not realistic. Peter Jackson made his fight sequence look realistic with orcs and elves. However in this, where this story really did take place, a 10 year old with my sony dv camera could make the sequence look better. The dialogue was repetitive. Jolie always said the same think about herself. And the ending... what a cheap fast way to end the movie. THIS MOVIE WAS JUST BAD!!!
The Bourne Supremacy (2004)
Alright
The movie was alright. It was better than what I expected. I was happy that it starred Karl Urban.
Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004)
Fahrenheit Rocks!!!!
Thank goodness for Michael Moore. We need more people like him. More people who are not afraid to tell and show the truth. This movie tell what most of America knows, that Bush is an awful evil man who's agenda to go to war for only for two things.... OIL & MONEY. Poor, poor souls, our children who had to go to war on the idiot's stupid command. Him and his cabinet should all be burned at the stake. Thank you Mr. Moore for standing up for everyone who can not, and does not have the power to ask the questions that you do. You ROCK!!!
Lifeforce (1985)
very odd... but appealing
This movie is very odd but very appealing. I LOVE IT! Life, soul sucking vampires instead of the plain old blook sucking ones.
COOL!!! And that umbrella ship... oh scarrrryy.
My Bodyguard (1980)
Good movie
I was 4 when this movie came out.
This movie inspired me to be the bully I am today. It is great. Of course I am a very nice loving person now, but when I was in grade school wooooo. How bad was I!!!!
Freeze Frame (2004)
Interesting....Odd
Very interesting movie. I just saw it today at the Tribeca Film Festival in NYC. It was a very odd movie. Being that there are not that many characters in the movie you can pretty much figure out who the killer is. It is a good ending... but the screaming was a bit to much.

Jaws 2 (1978)
I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!
I love this movie, just like I loved the first one. This movie rocks. Growing up on the same street as the ocean, smelling the ocean air, the movie takes me back to being young. Not caring, worrying about anything, but just having fun. Just like the boys and girls who just cared about having fun on the ocean riding the waves in their boats. It reminded me of my friends. I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I LOVE THIS MOVIE.
