...I saw the previews for Hancock when I watched The Happening and Gone baby Gone at the cinema a few weeks ago. I was not dissapointed when I saw the film today. Here is my review of The Film Hancock. **Hancock's main characters** John Hancock is the main character played by Will Smith and he is basically an alcoholic bum who has superhero powers and uses these to be a vigilante superhero who is hated by most of the city due to his slight disregard ...
...holds the same powers as Hancock but has not used them as she acted as a normal human being when she left Hancock 80 years ago when he lost his memory when he had a head injury after being attacked whilst with Mary. Charlize Theron puts in a good performance and she is one of my favourite actresses for her performances. Ray Embrey Ray is played by Jason Bateman and is married to Mary. The PR Man wants to change peoples image of Hancock after he ... Read review

Advantages: Cold War tension captured very well
Disadvantages: Not confident enough

...Russia and the USA. In Red Heat, the two different styles of policing combining in this film. The Plot Captain Ivan Danko is a Russian cop chasing down a notorious drug and crime lord, Viktor Rostavili, known as Rosta. Rosta escapes to Chicago, and Danko pursues him, being teamed up with Chicago cop Detective Sergeant Art Ridzik, who is also on Rosta's tail following a spate of murders linked to the crime lord's Chicago branch. Will the Cold War ...
...being made at important times, Red Heat must not be overlooked. The Cold War was still in flow, indeed the year after it would come to an end, but there were still tensions, and these are captured beautifully in the film. Red Heat was the first US film to be allowed to film in the Red Square. Director Walter Hill got many things right in this film, but it lacks the certain edge of other films starring Arnie. It is not that it is too complicated ... Read review

Advantages: Beautiful settings
Disadvantages: Lots, unfortunately

...the talents of Arnie for Red Sonja, in what was to be a huge flop, and an unsuccessful attempt at recreating a similar feel to the Conan films. The Plot Red Sonja witnesses the murders of her parents and brother, and the capture of her sister at the hands of Queen Gedren. Gedren is in the process of harnessing the power of the Talisman, an orb capable of using the sun's power to destructive purposes. Sonja's sister manages to get a message to the ...
...the title role here as Red Sonja is convincing as a fighter, but there wasn't really much there in terms of acting prowess. The part of a grieving woman was handled with not enough emotion in the right way - mere stubbornness and anger throughout was not enough for a convincing performance. Arnie plays the part of Lord Kalidor, but merely stands back and watches for the majority of the film, and doesn't really get involved too much, wielding a broadsword ... Read review

Advantages: great watch
Disadvantages: very dark

An absolutely great movie. This movie was awesome from the word go. It's got a very atmospheric feel and all the characters in the film are great. The film is made up of a few short stories kinda like pulp fiction. It's a very graphic and violent movie based on the underworld and its comic book picturisation creates a great atmosphere. Micky Rourke in my opinion give the best performance of his career, even though he was only in it for around 30 ... Read review

...Certificate: 12A (in the UK) The first film release is the most sensational out of the 3. This is because it is where Peter Parker (played by Tobey Maguire) is transformed by a red-blue coloured spider into a superhero. We also see the departure of his uncle, Ben (played by Cliff Robertson) which leads to the hero becoming more responsible. We are also introduced to Aunt May (played by Rosemary Harris), who goes through so much as an Aunt and as ... Read review
