10,000 B.C.

Advantages: VERY GOOD CGI
Disadvantages: NOTHING NEW

10,000 BC. = A visually stunning adventure through sabre tooth infested lands. The movie centres around D'Leh who makes friends with a young stranger brought to his village. Her name is Evolet and their destinies are now entwined. One day, many years later, Evolet is abducted by roaming Warlords and taken across the continent, across jungles, waste lands and frozen tundra’s. D'Leh sets out to find her, rescue her and hopefully marry ...
...to the plot of the film. It is about love, (of course), Adventure, war, treasures, friends and revenge. The thinness of the plot is more than made up for the stunning graphics which are truly superb. The scenes involving the Sabre tooth tiger, the war scenes and the epic ending are visually awesome. But then when you realise the film is directed by the same director who gave us 'Independence Day' and 'The Day After Tomorrow' then it is understandable. ...

2012 Movie...Good effects but predictable storyline

Advantages: Visual Effects
Disadvantages: Predictable storyline

...the Mayan Calender in December 2012 and then plays out what is predicted, I think that this is the best part as it shows what is happening to different parts of the world, where as films in the same genre only show one country being on-slaughtered so to speak. From the beginning it is action packed, although the acting is a little bit dubious at times the visual effects more than makes up for it, it will keep you in your chairs throughout the entire ...

'Let the girl go, punk!'

Advantages: Trots along at a good pace, pretty compelling
Disadvantages: Very violent at times, arguably condones vigilanteism

'Dirty' Harry Callahan, a San Francisco cop, has got himself into trouble with his bosses yet again, so they take the opportunity of an out of city case to get him out of the way for a while. A man has been found shot dead in his car and Harry needs to find out who does it, especially when it looks as if the killing is part of a series. Unfortunately, the local police chief isn't overwhelmed to see him. Then Harry becomes involved with Jennifer, ...
...ten years earlier. Jennifer is badly scarred; her sister even more so - she is practically catatonic and living in an institution. As the killings continue, Harry must work out if Jennifer has anything to do with them and, if she does, work out what he is going to do with her. This is the fourth of the Dirty Harry movies, yet is the only one that I have seen. Although very familiar with the term 'Dirty Harry', for some reason the films seemed to ...

...WHSmith. ***CRANK 2*** Crank 2: High Voltage was released this year and contains Jason Statham again. Chelio’s tears through the town in search for the Chinese criminal who has possession of his heart. Amy Smart, Dwight Yoakham, and Efren Ramirez revisit their roles from the original film. ***OVERALL OPINION*** I think Jason Statham is a fantastic actor anyway and I have to say that I loved this film. It was full of action and also has some funny ...
...I wouldn’t hesitate to watch Crank 2. My dad did how-ever borrow the DVD and after 30mins he switched it off as he couldn’t quite get into the film. If you like Jason as an actor and if you like his other films I think you with thoroughly enjoy this film. I would recommend it to anyone who like’s action packed films. (review als on dooyoo) ...

The fast was fast and the furious were furious

Advantages: Effects, Performance
Disadvantages: Ending

Overall the movie turned out not to be as boring as I thought it would be. When I heard about it I thought "great another movie about fast racing cars". After wathching it, my opinion changed. The actors/actresses performances were very well done. The effects made you hold your breath untill the sence was over and want to know what happens next. Being that I watched it after the fourth one was already out It was perfect Knowing ther was more to come. ...
...see this back round info.The reason it was good instead of excellent was because of the ending, which was really cool but could have been better. Unfortunetley, withut spoiling the movie there is only so much I can tell you. Thankyou for reading and I hope It was Excellent. ...
