Krampus (I) (2015)
7/10
Christmas horror with a Comedy aspect in it.
14 December 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Not bad a movie. You will most certainly be entertained with Conchata Farrell's comic action like one line was fantastic. "I haven't been this hungover since the Pope died",. We all got a great laugh from this. She bring's her Two and A Half Men character onto the big screen. The genre of the movie is Horror/Comedy. The visual effects wowwww, but more importantly, the plot was quite simple to follow. The plot being as I said above, was that a young boy wishes the OPPOSITE of wishes. In that mayhem ensues when Max's family tree comes, ie the Aunts, Uncles, Cousins etc., So in a fit, he rips up Santas's letter and throws into the sky, hence where Krampus comes and causes mayhem. IN the end, it is found that Max receives a Bauble with Krampus on it. We all thought it was a dream, however when its realised that it wasn't, who knew. Something tells me a SEQUEL might be on the cards.

More of a Biology/Scientific lesson we were treated to
14 December 2015
Warning: Spoilers
I travelled along tot eh film with a friend of mine. His synopsis of the film: "Interesting", which no doubt so true. The Visual Effects, class. Oh and the baby, mmmm MUSIC. It was fantastic. BUT not what I had quiet expected. Like Frankenstein being the MONSTER turned out to be the story of its CREATOR aka Victor Frankenstein(McEvoy). As I said and I'll say it again, I don't care for body parts being tested or even being shown on TV, as I said to my mate, thank god I had finished my nachos.

We meet Igor(Radcliffe) and his new boss Victor Frankenstein. Victor found Igor in a circus. They together try to create a monster ie LIFE from a dead body. Something to that effect.

Brooklyn (2015)
9/10
Fantastic performance by Saoirse and the cast and great portrayal of the '50s
19 November 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Wow, Just wow. What a film. I was most impressed by the performances by all involved especially Saoirse Ronan's who played Eilis. She has been tipped for Oscar 2016. Such powerful performances. Great well done. My number one pet peeve other than Music, which am delighted was wonderful and fantastic, BUT the plot, which I will outline in a mo. I was most impressed with the way they portrayed the 1950s. Highly recommended. When in particular the way they used to use the Boat from Cobh, Co. Cork. The film is set in Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford. So Eilis prob got the train over to Cobh or something. But the number one thing that got to me was the emotions. She showed true character as per Colm Tobin's novel.

THe plot as I said above was most appreciative very simple. Eilis is currently living with her Mother and Rose(Glascott). She gets a hankering to move to Brooklyn, New York City whom she was helped by Fr. Flood(Broadbent) in terms of a Visa AND a Job. She got a job as a sales person in Balloci a jewellery or something. Says I to meself, my god you could just literally sale into a job, but these days, totally different. So she meets a sexy young Italian buck Tony(Cohen). It is with great sadness, of which I won't bother getting into it, forces Eilis to return back to Ireland. So while back, her friend or neighbor Nancy(O' Higgins) sets her up with a guy, with a very cute mmmmm guy Jim Farrell(Gleeson). Before Eilish returns to IReland, TOny marries Eilis so that EIlis "promises" to return back to him. Whilst in Ireland, she gets feelings for Ireland again AND my precious Jim. So M Kelly(Brennan) being the villain I take it, makes up her mind for EVERYTHING by revealing "how small this world is", when she reveals that a "young girl from Enniscorthy", married TOny an "Italian". So on that note, I will leave you all to guess the rest. ahahah.

Great comic action, well done. Totally enjoyable.
30 October 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Quite a remarkable film. Totally enjoyable. Great laughs were had by all. hahaha. One word for this film was "Acceptance". In the beginning, Dracula didn't accepted Dennis being human and as such grew to him and accepted him in the end. hahaah

The plot was quite simple. heheheh. The film starts off with the wedding of Mavis(Gomez) and Jonathan(Samberg). Mavis finds out she's pregnant. And Baby Dennis(Blinkoff) is born. Mavis wants to move to California with Jonathan's HUMAN parents: Linda(Mullaly) and Mike(Offerman). However Dracula(Sandler) don't want this. What with his overprotective mode. hahaah. So Dracula wants to bring out the Vampireness outta of Dennis. As always, Dracula has a plan. hahaah. If Dennis becomes a vampire then he'll want to stay put. hehehe. However trouble further ensues when Mavis(Dracula's Daughter) reveals that she invited Vlad(Brooks) Dracula's father, to the party. Vlad is a very traditionalist ie against Humans full stop. He would even "suck out their souls". Vlad wants to scare out the Vampire outta Dennis. So via a teddy bear at Dennis' party, he is attempting to scare Dennis, but it don't work as Dracula actually prevents it. And so Vlad finds out his son Dracula has actually changed and attempts to change. Vlad's followers attempts to take down all humans etc., and Dennis' REAL self comes to being ie a Vampire and attacks the followers.

Pan (2015)
9/10
Music a bit lacking, but powerful performance of Levi Miller(Pan)
30 October 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Pan was very good. The music score I felt although at the beginning very good, however thou throughout the film, the music decreased. In my opinion, I think you should actually read up on the story of the Boy who never grew up. hahaah. I found the storyline a bit confusing in particular below relating to the fairies and the mother of Pan

The film, tells a story of a boy who is orphaned into an orphanage in a setting of World War 2. He is mistreated by the Matron or the Mother Superior. One particular night he is abducted by apparently pirates. Captain Blackbeard(Jackman) heads the pirates. He welcomes the boys "Welcome to NEVERLAND". It is then made apparent that Pan(Miller) is actually "special", ie to "fulfill the prophecy". So he befriends James Hook(Garrett Hedlund) who "lies as he's a Grownup", ahahah. Great laugh that was. Then Hook and Pan actually escape into a fairyland. Now this bit I was COMPLETELY lost. All I know they's the Goodies. hahaha. The Pirates then catch up. A war ensues. The now infamous Tinkerbell, says I to meself: "Oh she's on her own now, ie she has her own movies".

"Home is not where you're from, but Home is what you make"

Solace (II) (2015)
You have to be mentally stable; not what I expected from the trailer.
26 September 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Well what a film it turned out to be. NOT what I had expected. You would do well to be VERY Mentally STABLE. or as the States put Emotionally Stable. There were plenny of mature themes, in IReland, they have it as 15+, I feel they should have it slightly higher, say about 16. They had all the usual of crime, shooting. etc., They actually showed a scene of self inflicting wounds. ie slicing wrists and the death occurring. Then you must certainly WOULD not want to have just eaten. THankfully I had finished my nachos when this scene appeared, whereby an Autopsy of a kid was occurring. They had taken the brain out of the skull and literally as I type this, I get a bit queasy sliced it in half like a cake or whatever. I felt there was no need for that for me personally. The plot was on the ball alrite. The main character clearly suffered from some form of Mental Health trauma. He was even asked what does he have. He himself couldn't bring himself to reveal.

PLOT

The plot was self explanatory. We are treated to a crime scene. Joe(Dean Morgan) hires out John(Hopkins). Joe along with his partner Katherine(Cornish) help with John to solve very similar crimes who has physic visions. IN that the victim is of a dying nature, where they have an underlying issue. For e.g a kid ie the boy I referred to above, died of wounds to the neck, but then is later revealed that he actually had BRain Cancer. Likewise Joe the Detective. He was actually shot and later revealed that he was Stage 4 Cancer. So the killer Charles Abmorsie(Farrell). The film deals with whether someone should kill out of "compassion" or "mercy". However John RIGHTLY points out we "can't play God".

Great action; plot could be a bit more constructive thou.
19 September 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Well what an amazing film, this was. Although plot wise it wasn't as constructed as the first film. THe Maze Runner(Review here). Great acting now doubt. Thomas(O' Brien) as ever so cute and adorable that he is, is always the odd ball out. hhaahahWhen in darkness, my heart was beating like mad. I was able to see if a character would jump out at the screen a few time. But one character of which was infected with the "Flare" virus scared the shite outta me. hahaah.PLOTThe plot as I said above wasn't as constructed as the first one. In the first one they were mainly in one area ie the Maze. However this time, the amigos: Newt(Brodie-Sangster); Winston(Flores); Teresa(Scodelario); Minho(Lee); newly joined to the amigos Aris(Lofland) and Frypan(Darden) all escape the WICKED(World In Catastrophe: Killzone Experiment Department). In the opening scenes, we see a Young Thomas(Gallegos) being given up by his mother(Martinez-Cunningham) to WICKED. Fast forward to the present times, Thomas as ever continues to cause havoc by wondering whats going on etc., Janson(Gillen) is head of Operations at this facility. So the gang with ARis' help escape the facility. Of which I was quite surprise considering if you're NOT in the Facility that you will not survive out in the open with all the zombies or the "Flare" affected beings. However I was wrong, as Thomas proved otherwise. They encounter Brenda(Salazar) and Jorge(Esposito) in their travels. They then continue their journey. However sadly one of my precious Winston is affected by an affected being ie the "Flare" virus. They want to get to beyond the Mountain. THey arrive some how survivingly. Teresa while at the Mountain calls upon the WICKED by stating "I'm sorry, I had no choice", something like that. An epic battle ensues. The Powerful Ava Paige(Clarkson) appears and what a statement that really went through me: "Whatever it takes", she goes to test for immunisation etc., etc., So Thomas takes his power when Minho is taken back to WICKED, "I am going to kill Ava Paige". Says I to meself, that's going to be the Defining Chapter aka, great conclusion to the series etc.,

No lack of action, haahah. Bit too bloody, but action wow.
17 September 2015
Warning: Spoilers
It was quite an interesting Movie. I wholeheartedly enjoyed. I was kept on the edge of my seat. But more so, I was left questioning who should Katia (Price) believing. Either Agent 47(Friend) OR John Smith(Quinto). The film did eventually say who is who. For the purposes of the review, I won't divulge the information. ahahaha. But you will be pleasantly surprised. Great ACTION no doubt. A bit too bloody for my liking, however I understand this is part of the Franchise series and the movie is actually based on a VIDEO game. hahaahah.

PLOT

The film starts off with explanation of the Agent and how its made. We then are treated to great action of Agent 47. Agent 47 is hunting down Katia who herself is hunting down Litvenenko(Hinds) who we find out that he's her Pappie. However soemonesels is hot on their tale John hisemfl.

PS Please wait til END of the film, BEFORE Credits start rolling up. A clue is given. That's all I'm giving you. haahha

Not the best of the whole Transporter series.
13 September 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Simply put, not the best I have encountered throughout the whole series. Although this is a reboot of the trilogy of the past. I found the Frank(Kreins) character to be of weaker to a certain extent. Now while action was no short of it, I found it to be lacking. I loved the way they kept the majority of it. However with Frank's father???? now what up with that. Then to use the father in a kidnapping??? Nope completely lost there. The plus side, the Airport scene was class, and the usual speed chase of which we were treated to two.

PLOT

At the beginning we see a familiar, whereby a bunch of crooks are trying to steal the car. However Frank has other tricks up his sleeve. haahah. He then goes to meet his father Frank Snr(Stevenson). During one of his socials with his Pops, he answers a call to: "Is this the Transporter", great tagline, love it. He meets a woman who starts the whole thing. A series of events occurs. The girls help the Transporter in retaliation.

What an interesting movie; Music FANTASTIC Score
5 September 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Well what an interesting film, this turned out to be. I was completely lost with the plot. Although the Music was unreal, I totally enjoyed the music. Henry's character was fab. Totally enjoyed his soothing voice and his strong American accent. Bottomline, guys YOU need to have seen the TV Series that was released in the '60s/'70s. I was completely lost as I said, like one minute Solo and Kuryakin are fighting EACH other, next Gaby is actually betrays Solo and Kuraykin. Like whats going on. And now we learn at the end that Gaby, Solo and Kurayakin have a "code name" for the thrio, as stated by Waverly(Grant). They are now known as UNCLE(United Network Command for Law and Enforcement). So overall great movie, Music WOW, so ENJOYABLE. I was there like the conductor.

The plot being from what I can get, is that Solo(Cavill) is teamed up with Kuryakin(Hamemr). Initially Solo teams up with Gaby(Vikander). They are pursued by Kuryakin. They each learn that Kuraykin is actually now Solo's partner. So with the niceys niceys done, Gaby is to play Fiancé with KUryakin.

Excellent Action flick.
21 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Well this film, was actually quite good. I had seen the previous Mission Impossible films and found them to be quite confusing plot wise and the technical aspects of it. However with this particular franchise, I found it quite easy to understand. The action was top notch, no question. I enjoyed it immensely especially with Plane scene at the beginning. Me with a fear of flying, I actually felt I was actually on the plane. So real it was. hahaah. My fav scene thou was with the Prime Minister(Hollander) and Atley(McBurney) when Atley's face was 3D Printed ontop Ethan Hunt's(Cruise) face. I thought that was class. When Prime Minster claims that Brandt's(Renner) hand is "So warm". We all got a great laugh. Brandt looks over at Atley/Hunt and hunter shows the face as much as to say deal with it. I thought it was class.

So now onto the plot. The plot as I says above quite simple. Ethan Hunt(Cruise) stumbles upon a group known as the Syndicate who has been described as: "An Anti-IMF",who's job is to take down the IMF and all that goes with it. It all starts off as I said above the plane scene. You'd wanna have a head for heights, no question. Anyways, Ethan gets onto the plane with the help of Ethan's buddy Benji(Pegg). Then afterwards a LOVELY score. It really was like a TV Series type as I actually learned of this lately. Hunley(Baldwin) wants to disband IMF competly and appears in a US Senate Committee. Classic line from Brandt is "I can neither confirm nor deny any details without the permission of the Secretary".He continuously states this when asked by the Committee. So a series of events occur. The Vienna Opera scene was a classic scene too. The Chancellor of Vienna is assassinated. I don't get the connection to it. They did explain the Istanbul and all the majors terrorist attacks. But that's about all I understood.

2D - Sound spectacular. Pls note there are no extra scenes BEFORE the credits or AFTER

Transporter 3 (2008)
9/10
Great action; Plot thou in some parts questionable
18 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This film, tells the story of Frank(Statham) being put to sleep or framed to so that the Frank has a band on him. It seams that he was asked to do a job in the first or second film, and he refused. And as such his past has come to haunt him. So as such he is now under surveillance with a bracelet.

While there was plenny of action in it, no doubt, and the skills as I said in the previous sequel is spectacular. However with this sequel, I found the plot slightly confusing. There was the Minister, his daughter, then the guy who was with the daughter at the beginning, and the baddies. Now I can't connect the baddies and the Minister. To do with Environment????

Great action flick, no question. hahaah
18 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
The film is very basic plot. Thats what I love about movies. Some I do like when you are left guessing, but not all the time.

A Transporter is required to deliver "Packages" around. All Packages are "required" to follow "guidelines" in case of car chases. His first trip to deliver robbers Packages to a guy. "Weight", "Destination", He continues to get jobs or "Transports". However on one particular job, he receives a package to be delivered to Grenoble, France. He stops buy for refreshments and his car is blown up. As expected he gets very P****d off. This Chinese woman - Lai(Shu) was one of the deliver packages. HE delivers her. IN return he receives the package that blew up his car. So on a revenge warpath, he encounters Lai again. He is so annoyed. It is then revealed Lai involved in his personal life is actually because she tells Frank(Statham) that her Father and family are to become slaves in a shipment container.

I enjoyed the movie. Seen it a few times. Great action flick. No doubt. However I was lost as to the bit why Frank was late and yet Frank himself is punished by his car being blown up. So according to the film, If I'm late for something and that was MY rule, I should be punished?????

Transporter 2 (2005)
9/10
Great action flick, Title would need to be revisited thou;
18 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Frank's car is attempted to be robbed. Great start to a great series or franchise. Seatbelt is the third rule of the car. He drives Jack(Clary) a kid home from school. ON one of the days, he picks up the Jack to drop him at a party, he is somewhat caught in a crime spree. Frank is forced into a kidnapping AGAIN. as this time, the son of Jefferson(Modine) are being held. So this time Frank spends the whole movie searching down the culprits. However we later learn that it wasn't a kidnapping. It was actually something to do with Jefferson's Job. So he has been infected with the virus, and the wife Audrey(Valletta) and of course the son. Anyone who breathed the stuff would be infected as its airborne. and as such a search for antiDote ensues.

I found this movie to be exceptionally fabulous. However with the movie, thou, the title may need to be researched as the movie didn't deal at all with Frank actually Transporting packages etc., He transported a kid to school and spent the whole film in actually tracking the culprits etc., etc., Statham's acting capabilities much better than the first one. I find that Statham is much better acting alone than say the Expendables series. That belongs to Sylvester Stallone. Like his use of everyday objects as fighting mechanisms like the firehose , etc.,e ttc., And can anyone explain how did Frank get the AntiDote to the conference and to the folks. That wasn't explained.

Hop (2011)
9/10
Great film, most enjoyable. However no need for Playboy Mansion scene.
18 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Hop tells a story of an Easter Buddy, whereby EB(Brand) is helping out with his Pops(Laurie) at the Easter factory. EB then grows up and insists on his interest in Drumming. Pops wants him to take over the family business. On the Human world, Fred(Marsden) is having an "intervention", whereby he is being kicked out of the family, so his sister Sam(Cuoco-Sweeting) helps him out with offering Sam's boss house that she is suppose to housesit. haahah. The Human world meets Bunny world when EB is knocked down by Fred. EB has been looking for a place in the human world, when he leaves Bunny land, after a having an argument with Pops. While Fred is throwing out EB, EB reminds him that he's the easter bunny claiming to fred that "He is special, not Oh, everyone's special, special", So Fred recalls a memory when he was a kid. EB's Berate Pink Bereats (Emergency Bunnys) are on the search for EB. So chaos ensues. heheeh Fred is framed by EB to escape the Pink Berates. Carlos(Azaria) leads a takeover from Pops. All is well now. EB, Pops and Fred all played the part in taking back Easter. haahah. So Fred has been inducted or "initiated". So now he and EB are "Co-Bunnys".

I just noticed with the credits that Huge Hefner played the voice of the Playboy Mansion. Like really in a kids movie??? So my thoughts on the movie, very nice, simple plot. Enjoyable. Can't really fault this movie, except for the Playboy Mansion scene. I felt there was no need for that in a kids movie.

​Great comedy, totally enjoyable. hahaha, Kevin James added to the comedy.
16 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Well what a movie it turned out to be. Kevin James who plays the President, provided a fantastic score. He brought along his King of Queens humor and laughter. I was literally breaking my sides laughing on a constant basis. It was activating my soar throat. Thats how funny it was.It basically tells a story of the classic video games that the Aliens mistaken to be destroying their planet. Adam Sandler who played Brenner, wasn't too bad. I'm not a fan of the actor. But in this case I found him to be at home. The film starts off with a group of young kids playing video games in the arcade. It is then announced at a convention that NASA is to send a Time capsule sorting a thing to Space. However the Aliens misinterpret and start attacking Earth with all they've got. They come in the shape Donkey Kong, Pac - Man etc., All the oldies. All the crew get together to save the world.

Very disappointed with lack of ACTION
12 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Well what can I say about this film. It was a good film. That's all I can say. It is unfortunate that it has been getting bad reviews etc., Well unfortunately I can agree. Another friend of mine was saying that their's action for about 5mins, how true is that. Great action between Victor/Doom() and the Four, namely: Reed(); Johnny Storm/BABE(Michael Jordan); Ben(Jamie....);Sue(); Great action, that only lasted for about 5 or 10mins if even that. The rest was all about the science aspect and the lead up to the aftermath. Like the original actually dealt with plenny of Action, no doubt, it also dealt with when the Four get infected, how they deal with it, and not only that how the PUBLIC deal with that. This film, ie the Reboot, did not deal with any of that. Its like the Four were in seclusion. One thing that really lacked was COMEDY. Every form of Marvel I have ever known, has always had some form of Comedy. However this one NOT ONE. I was surprised.

The film starts off with Young Reed and Young Ben trying to build a Teleporter for a Science Fair. Franklin Storm sees this and he and Sue, daughter of Franklin actually want the idea. So they go ahead. I was a bit lost with the government aspect. So then Reed is introduced to Victor/Doom who is said to have started the whole thing. My precious bundle of joy Johnny Storm(son of Franklin) is out car racing and gets into a car accident. So his father collects him and recruits him into helping the rest of the crew, to build this Teleporter. During a one night drunken encounter, Johnny, Reed and Victor. Ben(whom Reed rings him) go through the teleporter with a view of Going through and back within the night. However things go drastically wrong because Reed sticks his hand in some gueye stuff and it explodes. Everyone gets infected. Johnny has become the Human Fireball, Ben the Rock, Reed the Extender and Sue who discovers their ploy, also gets infected when they arrive back on Earth and it explodes. Sue has Invisibility capability. Reed then disappears claiming he is trying to get back to the way he was and the rest of them for that matter. Sue and Ben are tasked by the government to get Reed back. So afterwards when everyone is together, they now have to face their NOW rival former friend Victor or now known as Doom. Then the Four now need a new place and face the Government. Cleverly done I must say when the Government say "What happens if we say no", Ben/The Thing seen as saying I think its best you say Yes and My precious Johnny says"Just say Yes".

Film title would need to be revisited
12 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
The film opens up with 5 Days after Civil War ends, or suppose to have. Something goes down and the blame is put on Ben's (Cage) father or grandfather. So we assume our places whereby to free the father, they have to find the book and to find that we have to get the clues. Ben has to "Kidnap the President of the United States(Greenwood)". I found this sequel much better ACTION, however, the title of the sequel could be revisited as in the first one, they had a set goal of looking for a map, they found it, then the clues. Whereas this one they were looking for a Book of Secrets, BUT the clues were ELSEWHERE, meaning where was the need for the book? Music was wonderful a pleasure to listen to in the background. The President of the United States gives the crew a Presidential Pardon for Ben's grandfather . They were "accredited for this discovery".

Great movie for education
12 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
One word, Historical education. Outstanding on that part. A bit too long for a movie. But overall excellent. Great quotes as follows: "You don't need anyone crazy, you're one short step of crazy, what you get", my Riley(Bartha) replies with "obsessed" and Ben(Cage) replies with "PASSIONATE"

Riley replies with "That's where we lost FBI", when Abigail(Kruger) thinks that Ben and Riley are looking at a "Treasure map"

When Ben says "It's invisible" to convince Abigail that the map is real, my baby Riley says That's where we lost Department of Homeland Security"

The film entails Ben(Cage) along with Riley(Bartha) and Abigail who is looking for a Treasure which has been revealed that the treasure found by finding The Declaration of Independence. Initially Ben's Father was leading the search. Ian(Bean) is trying to steal it. It contains a map, an invisible map which leads to a treasure hunt so to speak. So they break into the Museum to steal the Declaration of Independence. In the meantime with no help with the FBI, Ben, Riley and Abigail, get caught in the lurch with Ian and his gang. However Ben turns FBI to his side, so when Ian they are caught breaking into a place, the FBI intercepts and arrests them.

Benjamin Franklin according to film invented the Day Light Savings. Also it indicated the end of World War 2. Something like that.

The Sweeney (2012)
7/10
​Enjoyable, Loyalty a Key
10 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Plenty of action in this film. Very enjoyable. At first when I saw this film, The Sweeney were gang members, however I have since learned well today hahaha, that they are an elite Police Force. Jack(Winstone) and George(Drew) and co are called into action. I didn't get the plot at first. So that's a negative. The Opening scene is a robbery. So I thought they were the robbers, but it so happens that they are an Elite Police Force as I said earlier. Then they are then told that there's to be a big hiest in a "Non- traditional high street bank". One member of the police force is killed and hence a battle ensues. Jack is stripped of his Police Badge, and sent to prison. Its up to sexy George to break him out or at the very least to prove his innocence. So a great movie, however plot very lost.

So my guess is that you'd have to have seen the TV Series. hahaha. So overall enjoyed it emmenesley. Very good. Highly recommended. Loyalty is a key player in the film.

Well what a class this movie is. hahahaah. Seen it several times. Grandpa(Castallneta), has a vision in church. Homer(Castallenta) adopts a pig and calls it Spider Pig. It turns out to be a disaster for the community. hahaha. Homer dumps Spider Pig's "waste" or as Marge(Kavner) refers to it as "leavings" into Springfield lake, even thou the Mayor of Springfield, Mayor Quimby(Casltealnna) has called a "Code Black", ie calling all Springfield Residents to stop dumping in the lake. However Homer fails to listen, and costs Springfield its life. So how to save it, first the family flee to neighboring(so called - hahah) Alaska. Then they see on the News that its to be bombed to make way for a new Gorge. So the family get caught by EEPA EEPA, EPA.

I do appreciate the way the movie kept some of its TV series like Bart writing on the Board of which it says"I shall not download this movie", fantastic.

So overall a fantastic movie.

Inside Out (I) (2015)
5/10
You must be mentally strong; plot difficult to understand
8 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Well only one word came out of this movie for me. Mental Health. Well two. hahaah. I found the movie very heartwarming. The plot very confusing, but basically all over the place. I said to a staff member who has seen the movie, whom I know well, that you'd have to have a very good mental health ie not depressed etc., etc., You'd have to be very mentally strong. A girl Riley(Dias) moves from Minnesota to San Francisco. However her emotions are played upon. Emotions being Joy(Poehler), Sadness(Smith), Fear(Hader) Disgust(Kaling) and Anger(Black). Sadness keeps interfering with the Memories and the Core memories. And hence Joy and Sadness somehow get out of the HQ, so they meet up with Bing Bong(Kind) and have many an adventures.

So overall, not the best movie from PIxar. However I can sense a sequiel thou. So lets hope that'll be better. hahah

Plot very confusing
8 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Well, what can I say about this movie. Plot very misleading, more so confusing. The effects for a 1977's movie quite good actually. From what I could gather Alien's are fooling Earth, well more so an area in USA. One father is loosing his mind, literally. Likewise another Mother too. The Mother looses her son to the Aliens and the Father well the Alien's took his mind, hahaha. Then the Father tries to get to the bottom of this, The Mother also tags along with him, while both eventually finds the the truth. Which is quite amazing actually. Its to do with a government Conspiracy. Then again, the aliens to pop out of the Space Ship afterwards. Firstly thou the humans that were abducted including the Mother's son Barry.

CORRUPTION is the only word
5 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
One word came out of this film. CORRUPTION. I wasn't actually gonna do a review, considering, I would only have one word. But the action and the scene, was just unreal. It tells a story of a cop Danny(Jackson), was being framed for a murder of another cop. Battles ensues between the cops and the Feds aka FBI get involved. Music score was quite good actually. Very suspenseful, no doubt. hahaah. Chris Sabier gets involved as Danny asked for him. Then during the film, the SWAT team and other police cops Chicago PDs, get involved by breaking what Chris had asked him to do. Then the lawyer or some other cop gets thrown into the ring, Frost. It has then been found that Frost was the one who did the framing. It just goes to show you who you can trust. "You can't trust anyone".
