Spectre

Spectre

Spectre is the latest 007 Bond offering. Not bad a movie. A bit disappointing thou. Plot reasons is the reason for my disappointment. I personally enjoyed Skyfall better. Even the music at the beginning by Adel added to it. Although Sam Smith did justice to it, the music in this film, I still feel it wasn't enough.

The plot again was confusing. However it did come together eventually. heeheheh. Bond(Craig) is in Mexico City, trackie a guy down. Trouble ensues. M(Fiennes) is furious and tells Bond that "he is grounded". However Bond feels this is needed, so he hires the help of Moneypenny(Harris) and my baby Q(Winshaw). Q "pricks" him with a Microchip, so that M and everyone knows where Bond is gone to.

The Man from UNCLE

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.

The Transporter

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 pissed 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?????

The Sweeney

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.

Jurassic World

Plot was quite simple actually. hahaha. I found it very good actually. In that with the dinosaur actions. The plot being a new theme park is opened. However the dinosaurs are actually Genetically Modified. IT gets a bit too scientific for my liking. So then one of the Dinosaurs a Mother of a ...... escapes, and causes havoc. One of the creators ie the scientists is asked what components was created to make the dinosaur. They fail to answer the question, however it is then soon realsied that it is a Raptor. There were three Raptors that Owen(Pratt) was "socialising" or rearing, something like that. Then came along Claire(Howard) who is a sister to Karen(Greer) is asked to look after Zack(Robinson) and Gray(Simpkins), who is a Business woman and simply don't have time for both Zack and Gray. Human tragedy brings all the family closer together. I enjoyed the film emmensley. The sound effects and CGI WOW, especially when "more teeth" were required in that Claire brought along another Mother of a......and the original was brought down by a Sea Monster. So yeah it was fantastic. ON the edge of me seat.

Terminator: Genisys

Oh my god, like, just wow. What a movie. It was fantastic. Plot was kinda simple. Kyle Reese(Courtney) being the FATHER to John Connor(Clarke) and Sarah Connor's(Clarke) love interest was sent back to help out Sarah. heheeh. Kyle what a babe the actor was. awwwww. Again great music when I saw Hans Zimmer, awwww my gawd. I think he shud give up his wife or partner and marry me. hahaha. I just So love his music. eheheh.

Monsters: Dark Continental

Very interesting film. The only good thing or positive I can give was the sound effects. It was unreal. I mean like everytime, I saw the monsters and the characters were fighting off the monsters, the sound effects, just WOW. The rest thou was completely and utter rubbish. The plot unpplottable.  Plot hadn't a notion. I understood, it was spoz to be whereby they try and stop the monsters. However they added a war element to it. Complete and Utter Disgrace.

John Wick

Completely different genre. Again one word: Revenge. John's(Reeves) wife dies. The wife left a puppy(Beagle might I add), however the puppy is killed. He gets his revenge. He typically runs after one individual. As far as I understand, John's car was stolen. So I can't get why the puppy was killed. It just don't make sense. I ensured as an Animal rights activist that "No animals were harmed in the making of this film". So overall great movie.

The Avengers: Age of Ultron

The film starts of with the "Twins" and we also note that the twins are master to a guy from Iron Man 4 ie the Mandarin, well the Mandarin's helper. One of the twins Quicksilver/PIetro Maximoff(Johnson), I instantly fell in love. Quicksilver superhero is he can travel at the speed of light. The other twin - Wanda Maximoff(Olsen), can manipulate minds etc., The Ultron(Spader) is born via Tony Stark(Downey Jr.) and THe Hulk(Ruffalo). Things get a bit eary thou when the pack of em are partying the night away, we see JArvis(Bettany) being killed by Ultron.

So all in all, the Avengers reuinite against Ultron. I found the film in general good. NOT the best of the series. Iron Man, Captain America(Evans), Hawkeye(Renner), Black Widow(Johanssen). Samuel L Jackson reprises his role as Nick Fury.

Two faults, I found about the film. One being, I actually at one stage thought I was watching Terminator series. With Terminator it was Man V Machine. Nothing different. The only difference was the plot. END OF.
And the second being, I felt a bit sad that e.g Hawkeeys' character is gone, as he's a family now. etc., Im allergic to change. haahah.

 

Fast & Furious 7

It's been described as a Vehicular action film. No question. As Dominic Torreto(Diesel) says: "I don't have friends, I gots family". How true is that. They stick together as if they were family. They look out for one another. Plot being fairly simple. From the past Fast & Furious series sequels, the film starts off with Deckard Shaw(Statham) being dangerous as ever. He is comforting his brother who has been put in hospital. Now I haven't seen ANY of the Fast & Furious. However fans of this series would know and be able to connect the dots. ahhaah.Overall great film. One word is very simple REVENGE. That's all there is to it. ahahah. Twas very touching at the end of the film, the tribute to late Paul Walker who played Brian in the series. He died in a car accident.

Seventh Son

Jeff Bridges who played Master Gregory had a very poor voice. I couldn't understand a word of him. Tom(Barnes) very cute and fabulous actor. Julienne I suspect an Oscar on her way or at the very least a nomination. Wow. The plot was not too bad to understand, so I was ok in that department. That said thou, needs a bit more easier script, but at the very least the voice was most annoying, I kept repeating to my friend about Master Gregory's Voice yedeeyada etc., etc., The plot being as follows. Tom is with his family on a farm, in the olden days. Master is search for a Apprentice. He comes across Tom. He hires him to kill off Mother Malkin(Moore). Great action no doubt.

Run All Night

Not bad a film. Quite confusing thou as how the son Mike(Joel Kinnemean) from RoboCop was caught in on the act to the point he is now a fugitive. So in short Shawn(Harris) is running after Mike(Kinneman) because Mike was spoz to have shot Jimmy's son Danny. From what I could gather, Danny(Halbrook) WANTED to get back on the game in relation to drugs, even asking his pops in front of the Albanians. So yeah quite confusing. Oh and Mike and Jimmy don't get on for fyi.

Captain Philips

I can see why Captain Phillips won several Oscars in 2013. It tells the true story of a Captain Phillips whose ship Maesrk Alabama was hijacked by Somali Pirates. Philips(Hank) warns the crew, of the impending hijack. They successfully prevent them, however on the 2nd run, they climb aboard the ship. Captain Phillips himself is put into the Lifeboat, as the plans weren't set out as thought. Very well performed. I actually felt Captain Phillips emotions, me heart racing etc., etc., Well played and acted out. Classic quote aswell: "Look at me, "(Somali Pirate), "sure"(Hanks), "Look at me, I'm the Captain Now"(Somali Pirate). I always repeat this.

Selma

Great heartwarming film. What the Black ppl went through. The film tells the life and times of Dr. Martin Luther King. He was wanting MAINLY voting rights for the Black People of the Americas. As they didn't get the voting rights, they went on numerous protests as expected. This year 2015, back in March(if I can remember), saw 50 years ago, when Dr. Martin Luther King, CROSSED
Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama. They were wanting to cross the bridge to excercise their consitutional right to vote in Montgomery, Alabama.

Jupiter Ascending

Film was good. Visual affects astounding. Great rising star no doubt. Music not too bad, in fact its probably the only reason I kept going back. haahah. But very lost throughout. Even though I saw it about 4 or 5 times, still lost. As my American mate says, very "weird" film. hahah.

Kingsman: The Secret Service

What a film, Kingsman. I never expected it. Great comic and great action. It blue my mind. It was unreal. Music was fantastic. It was the normal music score. E.g The American Anthem was played etc., etc., Plot was a bit hard to understand the first time, I went. From what I could gather, Harry(Firth) highers, troublesome teen Eggsy(Egerton), after Eggsy' father Lancelot is killed in action. So Harry trains him in a series of tests. Then a global danger is immenent. Valentine(Jackson) is creating a SIM card chips, whereby when he activates, people all go Homicidal.

One class scene I'll never forget it. Harry(Firth) is in a Hate group church in the US, whereas they's against Abortion, Unmarried etc., etc.,One woman prevented him from getting out, as he couldn't stand it. I was beginning to get nautious myself. So he attempted to get out. This woman attempted to stop him, and his reply was class. "I'm a Catholic whore, currently enjoying congress out of wedlock with my black Jewish boyfriend who works at a military abortion clinic. Hail Satan, and have a lovely afternoon madam". The Church is against Colored ppl too, let alone Homosexuals etc., The first scene too is class, whereby Harry is wanting to teach some thugs a lesson, and later is passed onto Eggsy(as Eggsy does the exact same thing to Dean(Eggys step father(well boyfriend anyways) "Manners maketh man." Do you know what that means? Then let me teach you a lesson". 

Great crossovers were done to. Whereby Eggsy is asked during one of his tests, "Cute dog, whats his name,", Eggsy replies "JB". Then Arthur(Caine) tries to guess, Jason Bourne(Bourne Francises), James Bond(Bond), when Arthur fails Eggsy replies with "Jack Bower" from 24. 

Big Hero 6

I popped along to the most anticipated movie of my Babes Inflatables. Big Hero 6. The film surrounds an Inflatbles that sets about saving the a town. How it stats that is that a young kid Hiro has an amazing relationship with his Bro Tashadi. Hero starts with Robo Fighting. His bro Tashadi is exceptionally looking out for him. I've never seen such closeness. He brings his Bro Hiro to a Nerd School college kinda. Hiro is overwhelmed. He meets Baymax(INFLATBLES). He's an Inflatable Robot that is a "Healthcare Companion". They go on a journey in finding out the mysterious person who was involved the fire.

Overall a FANTASTIC film. Pure emotional at times. But fantastic. I smell a sequel on its way.

Attack of the Sabretooth

Great film. Very gory indeed to start. Plot very simple but slightly confusing as to role of the college students role in the film. Plot being 3 sabretooth are cloned. They start attacking people one by one. However a security breach by college manages to open ALL the sabretooths out. The company cloning is only opening it.

Gangster Squad

Very good film. Very violent film, wouldn't be my cuppa tea. Tells a true story of Micky Cohen in LA. A gang is put together. One member of the gang is killed, as he's found to have been spying on Mickeys actions. Great action no doubt.
