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 ...

The beginning for Burton's Bat

Advantages: Great acting, great story, a dark and 'mood' film - a great adaptation
Disadvantages: None for me.

...and directed by Tim Burton, Batman is the first in a series of films about the comic book hero that was released back in August 1989. This is a review of the film only. ****Story line**** Gotham City is a dangerous and dark place to live that is becoming more and more fraught with criminals each day. The only protection Gotham’s residents have is the local police force, but most of these are corrupt and are only out to line their own pockets. There ...
...in it. The Joker and Batman have two separate and conflicting objectives and soon clash, and have epic scuffles, as each tries to achieve what they set out to do. It appears that Batman ahs not only captured the attention of the Joker, but also that of prize winning journalist Vicky Vale (Kim Basinger), who makes it her mission to uncover the true identity of the man behind the mask and the Bat suit. Will the Joker get his wicked way and take control ...

Casino Royale 2?

Advantages: You will stay 106 minutes in front of your tv watching action
Disadvantages: I feel lack of something

...writing a review on the Quantum of Solace too. I won’t go over all the James Bond films I promise. The Quantum of Solace has more referrals to the previous film in line, Casino Royale than other series did. I mean that there are some dialogues between M and James Bond that can be understood only if you have seen previously Casino Royale. The film was directed by Mark Forsters. The running time is 106 minutes and the classification is 12A. The film ...
...about James Bond, visit: http://www.007.com/ The plot ------------ James Bond (Daniel Craig) tries to find the members of the organisation that blackmailed his beloved Vesper Lynd (Eva Green from Casino Royale). It seems that his action is motivated by revenge and M (Judi Dench) pays attention on his movements. He meets a beautiful girl, Camille (Olga Kurylenco) who leads him directly to Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric). Camille is hunting for General ...

Smallville

Advantages: great, great graphics, great characters
Disadvantages: leaves you wanting more

First of all I have to say "Smallville" is one of the shows I most enjoy, out of quite a few. The reason for it is because I have a love for superheroes. Especially the Justice League superheroes (Batman, Superman, Green Arrow, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter etc). This ficitional and action-packed series is based on the early years of Superman (Clark Kent (played by Tom Welling)). So the first series of "Smallville" Clark was still ...
...and college. Because it is based on Superman, you have his classic villain - Lex Luther (Michael Rosenbaum). At some point in the show they were friends but things change. You also have Lois Lane (Erica Durance), though not exactly Clarks love interest. There is also Chloe Sullivan (Allison Mack)- Clarks best friend, and Lana Lang (Kristen Kreuk)- sort of his girlfriend. Along with these characters there are also characters which are in other DC ...
