Peter Jackson gave this movie a new twist. I 've seen the old
King Kong movies and they're quite great, but this one is exceptional!! The actors and actress Naomi gave the movie its own character and distinct traits from the original story. It fits them so well, but the most remarkable in this movie is KONG. Peter made the beast look like a real, living gorilla, only it's 25 feet tall. The actor who portrayed Kong is great. He gives the beast life, not just its brute strength and uncanny agility, but a heart of beast that is longing for a companion. In his eyes you can see the soul that suffers from the savagery of the island, but his love for Ann, he finds his way to conquer it. There are many scenes in this movie that will capture your heart and even make you cry. It's up for you to see. This movie is worth seeing for. This is a great remake from a great director (",).



-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The box-office performance of http://tbhl.theonering.net/'s "King Kong" wasn't as chest-thumping as many expected. But to be fair, $217 million isn't terrible, nor was the $520 million worldwide take. Moreover, the film was well received by critics, nominated for four http://www.theonering.net/oscarparty/ and won three: visual effects, sound and sound editing.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

short summary



Set in the 1930s, this is the story of a young and beautiful actress Ann Darrow from the world of vaudeville who finds herself lost in depression-era New York and her luck changes when she meets an over-ambitious filmmaker Carl Denham who brings her on an exploratory expedition to a remote island where she finds compassion and the true meaning of humanity with an ape Kong. The beauty and the beast finally meet their fate back in the city of New York where the filmmaker takes and displays the ape in quest of his fame by commercial exploitation which ultimately leads to catastrophe for everyone including a playwright Jack Driscoll who falls in love with Ann and plays an unlikely hero by trying to save her from Kong and her destiny.

Name:....................................Blade 2

Genre....................................Action/horror

Rating:..................................good



Story:
A rare mutation has occurred within the vampire community. The Reaper. A vampire so consumed with an insatiable bloodlust that they prey on vampires as well as humans, transforming victims who are unlucky enough to survive into Reapers themselves. Now their quickly expanding population threatens the existence of vampires, and soon there won't be enough humans in the world to satisfy their bloodlust. Blade, Whistler (Yes, he's back) and an armory expert named Scud are curiously summoned by the Shadow Council. The council reluctantly admits that they are in a dire situation and they require Blade's assistance. Blade then tenuously enters into an alliance with The Bloodpack, an elite team of vampires trained in all modes of combat to defeat the Reaper threat. Blade's team and the Bloodpack are the only line of defense which can prevent the Reaper population from wiping out the vampire and human populations.



My comments:

Blade II is an exciting action film that takes the tired vampire story and adds a new twist by introducing an entirely new villain. Sure, there is sure to be some controversy (at least among film fans and fans of the genre) about whether or not it is right to introduce new characters in this way. Vampires are a tired theme at the movies, but it is a time-honored genre in itself that deserves respect just from the fact that it has been around for so long in literature before the movies. The question of whether or not the writers were justified in introducing these new characters is, in my opinion, satisfied by the fact that they made such quality villains that fit so well into the genre.

I am thrilled to see that they didn't just make another dumb Blade film that was exactly the same as the original except for the possibility of some new special effects, because these new characters, called Reapers, are exactly what the film series, as well as, potentially, the genre as a whole, needed. Reapers are blood-feeders, just like vampires, except they feed on humans as well as vampires, effectively making them an enemy of both, and their thirst is much stronger than the traditional vampire. And to make matters worse (or better, depending on whether you are an enemy of the Reapers of a member of the audience), they are identified by a scar which runs down their chin. This scar is where the lower jaw splits open when the Reaper is feeding, creating a frighteningly massive mouth like a vampire version of the Predator, and which has things inside it reminiscent of the horrifying and strangely unique Tremors.

There are some amazing make-up effects here as well, although I can see the film being automatically overlooked at the Oscars in 2003 simply because it is the successor of such a low class action/horror film, as well as because this is just not the kind of movie that wins Academy Awards. I'm not sure that there is anything in this film that is likely to catch the Academy's attention, but the make-up was very impressive to say the least. Wesley Snipes returns to the role of Blade, the half-human/half-vampire creature dubbed the `Daywalker' because of his ability to withstand sunlight. This is in itself one of the better parts of the movie, because even though I was enormously unimpressed with the original film, there is no one that could play this character as well as Snipes does. There is also an interesting conflict introduced as Blade is forced to team up with the vampires, his mortal enemies who we are to assume could turn on him at any time, in order to fight the Reapers (by far the more dangerous enemy), who ‘reproduce,' you might say, at an astonishing rate.

It's too bad, though, that the existence of the Reapers was introduced by vampires in a rather impressive although entirely unnecessary fight scene between a couple of vampires and Blade himself. Blade is attacked one night by two vampires wearing body suits (and some goggles that probably retain the coolest effect of the entire film), they fight violently for several minutes at full speed without rest, until one of them suddenly kneels before Blade and asks for a truce, informing him that there is now something on the streets that is even worse than him. If they were going to ask for a truce, you would think that they would approach him at least a little differently. One of these vampires (the better fighter, as it were) turns out to be Nyssa Damaskinos, a sexy brunette vampire who's lipstick was not smeared in the least even by all of those flying kicks that she took to the face from Blade about 15 feet in the air. Remarkable.

There seems to be a growing trend of having honest fight scenes replaced at an ever-increasing amount by special effects. Consider how vastly the role of special effects increased in Jet Li's fight scenes in Lethal Weapon 4 (relatively few special effects), Romeo Must Die (massive amounts of special effects), and The One (relatively few movements that were NOT special effects). This same trend is clearly influencing other films that are not made to be primarily fighting films, such as Blade and Blade II. The weapons that Blade carries around are still cool (think of them as a dark version of the toys that James Bond was sometimes given to take on his missions), and while the fight scenes in Blade and especially Blade II are undeniably thrilling and fun to watch, it's impossible to ignore the fact that most of what we are watching is computer generated.

As a whole, Blade II succeeds in reviving the story of Blade, which was not done justice by the original film. The Reapers were a much-needed and very impressive addition to the story, and the resulting conflict between the vampires and Blade himself as they are forced to take sides together provides such an interesting conflict that it almost overshadows the one created by the Reapers, who are by far the more dangerous villains. There is, of course, some stuff here that was thrown in without apparent reason and therefore without beneficial affect (such as the unnecessary, however impressive, fight scene between Blade and the two vampires early in the film), but as a whole the film rises high above its predecessor. The fact that the original film ends with Blade becoming a worldly vampire-hunter is mostly ignored in this film, although this one does end with a similar bit of comic relief and may even leave room for a second sequel. And as much as I disliked the original film, after watching Blade II I can't say that I would be too disappointed to see a Blade III come out in a few years.

Name:....................................The Ten Commandments (2006) (TV movie)

Genre....................................History/Religious

Rating:..................................Excellent



Story:
One biblical figure is revered by Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike. His name is Moses (Dougray Scott, Arabian Nights), the man who rose in power to defend a people, to free them, and to live in history like no other...

A time of danger approaches for all of the Kingdom. Danger from a child. A child who will become a Prince of Egypt. With the soothsayer's dire prophecy, the Pharoah (Paul Rhys, From Hell) orders the slaughter of all newborn males. But one child, born of Hebrew slave Amram (Louis Hilyer, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow) and his wife Jochebed (Emmy nominee Lisa Jacobs, The Attic), is put in the care of others to ensure his safety. As years pass, Moses is raised in a royal Egyptian household and, with no memory of his true family, rises to the stature of prince. Upon discovery of his heritage, and inspired by a fiery message from God, Moses implores his stepbrother Menerith (Emmy nominee Naveen Andrews, Lost), a high-ranking official in Ramses' army, to join him on a fight to reclaim his destiny as the leader and liberator of the Hebrew people.

But when Ramses rejects his demands, Moses issues the curse of a coming plague. From a swarming cloud of locusts to a river transformed in to a rushing stream of human blood to a downpour of frogs from the heavens, the prophesied scourge has been unleashed--Moses has taken the first step toward accomplishing his mission. Charting the dramatic story of the Hebrew leader--from his narrow escape from death to his leadership of the Hebrew people to the parting of the Red Sea, The Ten Commandments unfolds with all the spectacle, the violent human drama, and grand inspiration that has earned its stature as the greatest story ever told.

My comments:
I just luved this movie.................such a great one..........it refreshes one's religious memory.........this is a Hazrat Mosa, one of muslim's prophet 's movie..............he's one of four prophets who has book from Allah................brilliant...........awesome...........too good............i'd recommend muslims, jewish, and history lovers to watch this movie...........

In an overly earnest, high-gloss (for TV) production, ABC's "The Ten Commandments" is perilously close to Hollywood hokum, but manages to rise above it by featuring the ever-interesting Dougray Scott in the lead role of Moses (despite being yet another light-eyed Westerner playing one of history's most well-known Middle Eastern figures). In fact, the entire cast rescues the show from a mundane script, with Omar Sharif as Moses' father-in-law, Jethro, and Mia Maestro as Zipporah, as well as a slew of savvy international actors in supporting roles. It's hard to believe that there is room for yet another version of the story, but this four-hour Robert Halmi production offers a deeply conflicted religious figure struggling to find God in the midst of personal confusion and a people at war - a Bible story for our times. Grade: B

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most of the acting stands up to the well-known material, but why do so many characters speak with British accents? Is this the Royal Shakespeare Company doing the Old Testament? Many actors also appear too light-skinned to come from this region of the world. Were Egyptian pharaohs really that pale?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

You might think that, considering the technical progress made in the past five decades, at least the special effects in the new version would be good. Oh you would be so wrong.

Shall We Dance (2004)


*ing- Richard Gere, jennifer Lopez, Susan Sarandon and others

Plot Outline: A romantic comedy where a bored, overworked Estate Lawyer, upon first sight of a beautiful instructor, signs up for ballroom dancing lessons.


John Clark is a man with a wonderful job, a charming wife and a loving family, who nevertheless feels that something is missing as he makes his way every day through the city.

Each evening on his commute home, John sees a beautiful woman, staring with a lost expression through the window of a dance studio. Haunted by her gaze, John impulsively jumps off the train one night, and signs up for dance lessons, hoping to meet her.
At first, it seems like a mistake. His teacher turns out to be not Paulina, but the older Miss Mitzi, and John proves just as clumsy as his equally clueless classmates on the dance-floor.

Even worse, when he does meet Paulina, she icily tells John she hopes he has come to the studio to seriously study dance and not to look for a date. But, as his lessons continue, John falls in love with dancing. Keeping his new obsession from his family and co-workers, John feverishly trains for Chicago's biggest dance competition.

His friendship with Paulina blossoms, as his enthusiasm rekindles her own lost passion for dance. But the more time John spends away from home, the more his wife becomes suspicious.

With his secret about to be revealed, John will have to do some fancy footwork to keep his dream going and realize what it is he really yearns for.

****1/2

why the film works...., 13 June 2006

Author: http://www.imdb.com/user/ur1740031/comments from United States


Yes my Darlings, this is a dramatic, funny, romantic, time-travelin' movie. And the film succeeds because the chemistry between Keanu & Sandra is tangible. They've worked together before & genuinely like each other. It's the most important element; because their comfort level helps you believe the story and forget that you're watching Sandra & Keanu. As the characters get to know each other through correspondence, the film seduces you into suspended belief. Your left-brain's logical, analytical, fact-based reasoning doesn't want you to root for them, but your heart does. This film skips over the scientific & enables you to explore the tiniest possibilities of 'what if.......' Yes, it's corny, but so what. So is ROMANCE! See it with someone you desire.

The Lake House
Talent: Keanue Reeves, Sandra Bullock, Shorah Aghdashloo, Christopher Plummer, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Willeke van Ammelroy, Dylan Welsh

Date of release: July 2006

Date of Review: Monday, 31 July 2006

Keanu Reeves gets mail in The Lake House. (Image courtesy: imdb.com)



In a 1945 film called The Enchanted Cottage, a disfigured ex-GI and an
'ugly duckling' woman discover that when residing in the cottage of the
title, she is beautiful and he is no longer disfigured.

The Enchanted Cottage is no classic, but as far as the 'magical house of
love' genre goes, there's a metaphorical aspect to the story about the blindness of love - since their perfection only exists in each other's eyes - to the rest of the world he is still disfigured and she is still "homely".

Unfortunately, there is no such metaphorical level at work in The Lake
House. Alex (Keanu Reeves) lives in a house on a lake in 2004 and Kate (Sandra Bullock) lives there in 2006. Through some anomaly in the spacetime continuum they are able to communicate with each other via the letterbox. Naturally, they fall in love, sight unseen, and have to work out how to meet in Alex's future and Kate's present.

I was quite excited at the start of the film because I was convinced that Alex was a construction worker (he wears a hard hat and work boots) and that falling in love with Kate, a doctor, would allow the film to deal with what happens when the normal indicators of class and status are obscured and people just like each other for who they are.

But no such luck. Keanu turns out to be an architect from a long line of architects, and an entirely appropriate partner for Doctor Kate except for the annoying fact that he lives in the past - literally, not metaphorically.

A grown up's version of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure - only not as good.

21 Grams (2003)
Sean Penn, Naomi Watts, Benicio Del Toro..
Director: Alejandro González Iñárritu

The first 10-15 mins of the movie I was totally lost. However, as the movie progressed, I could not just get away from it. It was as if one started working on a jigsaw puzzle and slowly decrypting it. A brilliant movie revolving around 3 characters. I just wonder why the dierctor was not nominated for acacedmy awards even after making such a nice movie.

Haan I have seen Gone with the Wind (in fact bought the dvd for my collection). Loved both Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh in the movie. I first read the novel before seeing the movie.

Havent seen Waterloo Bridge. Other classics I would recommend Wuthering Heights, Pride and Prejudice(BBC). I have Emma, Jane Eyre(Timothy Dalton - he was a bit melodramatic and didnt suit the role of Mr.Rochester) he he he., Sense and Sensibility(Hugh Grant, Kate Winslet) - but I was not very impressed by these movies.. preferred the novels.

UNITED 93

I watched United 93 today and remembering the struggle passengers must have gone through on September 11 shocks to my spine. UNITED 93, shows the heroic struggle between the passengers and hijackers of the fourth plane that was to be hijacked on September 11, 2001. This was the plane that never made to its target. The director Paul Greengrass has chosen the most politically and emotionally charged source material available to an artist in the early 21st century, and shaped it into a psychologically draining, terrifyingly real, and technically brilliant film.

United 93 depicts one of the most terrifying ordeals the United States has ever had to face and that it was released less than five years after those events took place plays an undeniably enormous role in how the film is received.

And the president was not shown at all.

The Break-Up

Watched this movie today. An unromantic movie about Brooke and Gary. The movie has its comic share, but the entire movie seems like to educate couples how to fight! It's a one time movie.. if you've got nothing to do.. then do a break-up. Hero Gary taught us all that we become respected only when we break-up see.. he did his logs, lost weight and spoke proper englisss after he broke up with Brooke.

Plot outline:

After Brooke (Aniston) calls it quits with her boyfriend Gary (Vaughn), neither person is willing to move out of the condo they share. Taking the advice of their repsective friends and confidants (and a few total strangers), they both engage in mental warfare designed to force the other person to flee the premises -- until they both realize they might be fighting to keep their relationship alive.

Juz back after watching John Tucker Must Die in INOX !

Cute funny movie Jesse Metcalfe (Desperate Housewives) looks yum yum but his brother in the movie (Penn Badgley) is even cuter

Here is the review of the movie!

John Tucker Must Die: Lots of fun
Elvis D'Silva

September 29, 2006 13:38 IST

Hell hath no fury like three women who discover that they have been dating the same boy in high school! The man in question -- in the fun film, John Tucker Must Die -- happens to be the most popular guy in school, the much loved John Tucker (Jesse Metcalfe, Desperate Housewives).

John is smooth enough to keep the three girls unaware of each other until an unfortunate accident reveals the truth. After a catfight or two, the girls decide to work together for one reason and one reason alone -- revenge.

Enrolled into their plan is the new girl in school, Kate (Brittany Snow, The Pacifier), who has up until that point rued her existence as the 'invisible' girl, one whom no one seems to notice or remember. She's not entirely unattractive but has spent her life in the shadow of her super hot mother (Jenny McCarthy), whose bad dating history has usually been followed by mother and daughter packing up and moving to another town.

Her life changes when she encounters the three heartbroken John Tucker rejects -- overachieving journalism aspirant Carrie (Arielle Kebbel, Gilmore Girls), head cheerleader Heather (singer Ashanti Douglas) and environmentally-conscious free-spirit Beth (Sophia Bush, One Tree Hill).

Kate meekly suggests that they team up to destroy the great John Tucker instead of fighting among themselves. Suddenly from being the biggest nobody in high school, she becomes the co-coordinator of the plot against John Tucker.

A still from John Tucker Must DieThis being a teen comedy, the emphasis is on playful hi-jinks that embarrass the heartbreaker rather than cause him any real harm. From tricking him into posing for a public service announcement about venereal diseases to facilitating his consumption of estrogen-laced energy drinks (that cause him to behave in a girlie fashion at odds with his alpha male status), the girls try (and fail) to bring down the boy who is a god among his peers.

Each supposed reversal causes him to bounce back greater and stronger than ever before until the girls pull out their secret weapon -- a made-over Kate who is pushed onto the frontlines to seduce John so that she can break his heart when he actually falls for her.

Naturally, since this is a product of Hollywood, there is also the other love interest, in this case the brother aka, 'the other Tucker' played by the relative newcomer Penn Badgley. Between trading teen queen jibes with the 'cute-but-not-John' in chemistry class and working her womanly wiles on John with the aim of breaking his heart, our heroine, Kate, has a full school schedule.

Does the high school Lothario get his just desserts? Is the other Tucker doomed to quietly watch as his brother charms the one girl he also likes? Is revenge really a dish best served cold? If you're hoping to get deep meaningful answers to any of these questions you've definitely walked into the wrong screening room in the wrong multiplex on the wrong continent.

A still from John Tucker Must DieJTMD is a fun little romp that doesn't take itself seriously except while attempting to cash in on the photogenic salability of its stars to the teen and pre-teen demographic. Between the hot blonde Kebbel, sultry brunette Bush and feisty Douglas, the boys are provided with decent options for a fantasy date while the ladies are all supposed to swoon over the crooked smile and sleekly buffed musculature of Jesse Metcalfe on the big screen (if two seasons as Desperate Housewives' Eva Longoria's boy toy were not enough).

I suspect though that it is young Mr Badgley who is going to end up winning considerable appreciation along the way for his endearing geeky but cool manner. <------------- YOU BET HE DID

This is the movie that was made for that ever widening category/genre called 'time pass.' A tasty enough confection but don't expect any nutritional value.






That is Penn Badgley with Brittany Snow

i thought i got some time off, so watched movies and movies.

here are few with photos.

The African Queen(1951)

genre: adventure/romance/war
rating: marvelous, it's in my all time list. imdb rating: 8.1/10 ( in imdb top 250 list -> 139 )

humphrey bogart did a brilliant performance. i loved his casablanca and now this one.
truly, a worth watching movie. go for it if u haven't.





--------------------

Magnolia(1999)

genre: drama
rating: too good. i loved this movie besides julianne moore is there. she is
imdb rating: 8/10 ( in imdb top 250 list -> 175 )




---------------------

The Lake House(2006)

genre: drama/fantasy/romance
rating: liked the movie. it's underrated. go and watch it. it's touchy. imdb rating: 6.8/10

both keeanu reeves and sandra bullock did good jobs. sandra bullock is loved her.

one comment from imdb. don't know what u think ...

As for those people who claim that the story is "implausible".... they're probably the same people who think
that silly IMPOSSIBLE fantasies like X-Men, King-Kong, Lord of the Rings, Spiderman, etc, etc were great
movies. At least the characters and events in Lake House are believable, once the basic premise is
accepted. Can't say that about drivel like X-Men.





------------------------

Nacho Libre (2006)

genre: comedy/sports
rating: very sweet and simple. i am sure u r gonna love it. it's a simple story. ( imdb rating: 5.8/10 )

there is something special in italian/mexican beauty. don't u think so ?



-------------------------

Ultimo bacio, L' (2001)(eng: The Last Kiss)

genre: drama
rating: italian movies are usually different. this one is too. ( imdb rating: 7.1/10 )

love, seperation, emotions ... it's all about it. everybody is kinda desperate at sometime.
but the end is good, so is everything.



-------------------------

Combien tu m'aimes?(2005) (eng: How Much Do You Love Me?)

genre: comedy/drama/romance
rating: a french movie, this one is really sexy. monica bellucci, surely a cult figure. i loved the movie ...
i think she is a fantasy ...
imdb rating: 5.4/10

I liked 'The African Queen'.. great watch..Humphrey bogart is a tremendous actor......'Casablanca ' with ingrid bergman and 'The big sleep ' with Lauren Becall are 2 other movies that i like ...
The other movies i watched recently were 'Mackenna's Gold' ..Omar sherieff as Colarado is unforgettable n equally impressive is Gregory peck as Macenna....definitely a movie worth watching..
'You only live twice' with Sean connery as 007 n others...one of the best bond movies ever i feel...

Dead Poets Society (1989)

director: peter weir,
genre: drama
rating: hats off ( imdb rating: 7.7/10 )

i may sound too much but it's one of the best movies i have ever seen. there may be many greater
stories in hollywood or even in bollywood but i believe there's a long way to go from a great theme/story
to a great movie. that's called the vision of the writer and director.

crime/violence/politics/sci-fi movies may be great but sensitive and touchy movies(based on human element)
are not only great but also beautiful. and i believe you would prefer the later one.



excellent cinematography, brilliant performance by robin williams. i saw this chap for the first time in a hbo
ad, i didn't know about this movie. it's all about how a school teacher john keating(played by robin williams)
changed the lives of his students forever. and the background score is at its best, so wonderful.

unhappy, it didn't bag the best film oscar/golden golbe awards, it won "best film" in french academy of
motion pictures. won oscar for best writing/screenplay.

I watched the pursuit of happYness



I loved everything about this movie.........i loved the story since it's based on a true story of a salesperson in San Francisko, Chris Gardner.......his struggle is remarkable.........his wife leaves him caoz he cannot support the family.........he sleeps on street.......he goes to homeless shelter..........he takes care of his son as well...........it seems that this happened during/right after depression time..........30s.......



Personally, what i liked the most in this movie was as an audience experiencing poverty.........how we take things for granted.......it is heart-tearing movie.........every minute u cry..........every minute u suffer with Will Smith...........



I may not recommend those who are emotional...........because this movie leaves a long lasting sad mood.........long lasting means, for a day or so......i'm emotional person, i cried through out the movie........and i was down all day............u might experience it differently ...........but, it is a good reminder of life, struggle, and misfortunat....



this movie is an oscar nominee

Super! I loved all three. However, the first and third is better than two. It's amazing. Sometimes we want change in watching movies, a mood for action, this is a good movie to watch. I would definitely recommend this movie for everyone. I LOVED it.



First part, deals with CIA information.

Second part, genetic disease called 'Chimera'

Third part, deals with a scientific data known as "rabbit foot'



Tom Cruise rocks in all three.

Dar cand sotul (Julian McMahon) se intoarce acasa de parca nimic nu s-ar fi intamplat, isi da seama ca a avut o premonitie si face totul pentru a impiedica tragicul accident.

ok..........what language am i readin here? French/German?

Ok....Explaining u lil,

This movie is related to the thinking which comes in mind , some time wht v think n feel,this is going to be happen but in reallity things happens in natural flow......hope n love lives forever ...its related to family,childrens,wife,husband,father,mother.....and many peoples around us.

I love this movie alot ,its really changed my thinking n life alot...hope its give Optimistic results...

Language of movie is ENGLISH.

"PREMONITION"

Plot Summary: A housewife (Sandra Bullock) finds out that her husband was in a car crash, but when she sees him the next day, she realizes that she saw a premonition and will do anything she can to keep it from coming true.

Theatrical Review: Forgive me for treading lightly through this Premonition review, but the last time I tried to discuss the film in detail, Sony reprimanded me.

The reason I find this so funny is because the out-of-order thriller consciously jumbles its supernatural narrative in an effort to dodge easy explanations. You're going to want to discuss possible theories with those who've seen it, which is exactly what I planned to do while working the Premonition press junket weeks ago.

I took my seat across from the film's co-star, Julian McMahon, and floated an assumption about his mysterious character -- a supposedly dead suburban spouse who keeps reappearing to his confused wife, played by Sandra Bullock.

"That's a really interesting idea," said McMahon with genuine interest (and no, I can't reveal the idea here). "No one has posited that one to me yet. What I really think is…"

That's when we were cut off. Studio handlers hovering nearby started waving their arms and dancing in place. One stood between McMahon and me as he listened intently to his headset before finally saying, "We don't think he should be answering these questions." The studio flack listened again for half a minute before asking, "Can you rephrase the question so as not to ask Julian anything about his character, or the movie?"

As you can imagine, that's difficult. So here we are, tiptoeing around a juicy beyond-the-grave mystery that hinges on a central character I've been told not to discuss.

What can be said? Well, McMahon plays Jim Hanson, a loving husband and father of two who leaves a mysterious phone message for his wife, Linda (Bullock), at the beginning of the film. He's away on a business trip but informs her that he meant what he said in front of their children -- we'll eventually learn what that means -- and that he can't wait to see his family again. Only he never does. A police officer knocks on Linda's front door and informs her that Jim died in a car crash the day before.

Then things get really confusing. After dealing with funeral homes and grieving family members, Linda gives in to slumber, wakes up the next morning, and finds out Jim's still alive. Or is he? She checks the date and realizes it's two days before his planned trip, so he hasn't perished in a fiery wreck. Did she experience one of those dreams that are so realistic we need a few minutes to acclimate when we wake up? Or was it foreshadowing of things to come?

Before Linda can get her bearings, time shifts again. And again. And then some more. Premonition, penned by Bill Kelly, fluctuates back and forth between the days prior to Jim's crash and the days immediately after. Unfortunately for Linda (and, by extension, for Bullock), she's the only one who is aware of these drastic skips, and the incomplete truths are driving her insane. What is the connection between Jim and the petite blonde woman (Amber Valletta) who showed up at his funeral? When did Dr. Norman Roth (Peter Stormare) prescribe that lithium for Linda? Is the medication the cause of her illusions? Are they illusions at all?

German director Mennan Yapo explores alternate forms of psychological horror. His movie has quick and easy jolts lifted from the Asian horror genre, but it rises above expectations when developing more realistic (and vastly more terrifying) setups rooted in possible chills. There's a lengthy scene in an asylum where we begin to question Linda's sanity. These catch-22 scenes, when handled correctly, always scare me, because the more someone tells a psychiatrist they're not crazy, the crazier we think they are.

Needless to say, without Bullock, Premonition would crumble like a piece of Entenmann's coffee cake. Heady and somber, the movie tests our patience at times, but we remain invested because the actress automatically earns our sympathies and respect.

I'm not sure how many will follow Premonition down its eventual philosophic paths -- the film attempts to grasp fluid topics like fate and religious belief as it ponders if we can be punished for things we didn't do yet. And it answers most of its mysteries, even if the resolutions are disappointingly vague. Or maybe I shouldn't have said that. Maybe I've given too much away. Sony, if you're reading this, I didn't mean to...

quote name='KHOBI' date='Apr 18 2006, 09:08 AM' post='244775']
Name:....................................The Ten Commandments (2006) (TV movie)

Genre....................................History/Religious

Rating:..................................Excellent



Story:
One biblical figure is revered by Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike. His name is Moses (Dougray Scott, Arabian Nights), the man who rose in power to defend a people, to free them, and to live in history like no other...

A time of danger approaches for all of the Kingdom. Danger from a child. A child who will become a Prince of Egypt. With the soothsayer's dire prophecy, the Pharoah (Paul Rhys, From Hell) orders the slaughter of all newborn males. But one child, born of Hebrew slave Amram (Louis Hilyer, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow) and his wife Jochebed (Emmy nominee Lisa Jacobs, The Attic), is put in the care of others to ensure his safety. As years pass, Moses is raised in a royal Egyptian household and, with no memory of his true family, rises to the stature of prince. Upon discovery of his heritage, and inspired by a fiery message from God, Moses implores his stepbrother Menerith (Emmy nominee Naveen Andrews, Lost), a high-ranking official in Ramses' army, to join him on a fight to reclaim his destiny as the leader and liberator of the Hebrew people.

But when Ramses rejects his demands, Moses issues the curse of a coming plague. From a swarming cloud of locusts to a river transformed in to a rushing stream of human blood to a downpour of frogs from the heavens, the prophesied scourge has been unleashed--Moses has taken the first step toward accomplishing his mission. Charting the dramatic story of the Hebrew leader--from his narrow escape from death to his leadership of the Hebrew people to the parting of the Red Sea, The Ten Commandments unfolds with all the spectacle, the violent human drama, and grand inspiration that has earned its stature as the greatest story ever told.

My comments:
I just luved this movie.................such a great one..........it refreshes one's religious memory.........this is a Hazrat Mosa, one of muslim's prophet 's movie..............he's one of four prophets who has book from Allah................brilliant...........awesome...........too good............i'd recommend muslims, jewish, and history lovers to watch this movie...........

has anyone seen Casino Royale 2006?.good or bad or ok?........i wanna watch a movie to night, no idea what to go for?

Perfect Stranger



I liked it........it was interesting for me even though some of my friends did not find it that good.........they say it's average.....but i thought it's more than average........Halle Berry is amazingly beautiful.........and i liked the suspense part of the movie where everyone thinks that Mr. Hill did the murder...............and it turns out to be Halle Berry herself.........i could not predict that.....it was nice!



Halle Berry is out to solve a murder mystery of her childhood friend--Grace......and she tries to unveil the secret with her friend Mille? or somethin like that, i forgot the name.............Finally, she's the murderer...



Watch it!

Norbit



it was not the type of comedy i like..............i like practical joke type comedies.................even though, Eddie Murphy is my fav. after Chris Tucker, i did not like this movie much....................technically, Eddie did a good job since u believe as if that evil woman exists.........he plays that role so good, that u hardly guess there's a man behind the mask....



Eddi Murphy is an orphan who falls in luv with another orphan -- Kate--at the orphanage........then the girl finds a family and leaves.....................Eddie Murphy marries a big woman.......(the woman is eddie murphy himself with woman make up, however, in plot outline she's a person)..........then, he meets the same girl he loved........facing lots of problems and difficulties, he marries Kate................



if ur a person who enjoys practical jokes...............then, do not watch it!

James Bond: Die Another Day



I love it.........i loved the guy actor, (what's his name?) and Halle Berry.............nice to see Madonna actin...............i enjoyed it...............i guess this movie made a better impression of Bond movies .......last time i watched one which was too old..........the actor was around 50 or so, i was disappointed by my choice of watchin James Bond movie

Posted by: IDOL Oct 25 2007, 08:40 AM

James Bond: Casino Royale



I just liked the poker-play part .........no, i am not gambler.. ......but that was the only interestin part...........the rest was kinda borin and violent................i didn't like the girl's make up, she would paint her self with all the black colour in the world................anyhow, not better than "die another day"......

I can never enjoy a sci fi film. I undertook the perilous journey to this theater which was playing Matrix II, just to spend time with my nephew and niece. In the beginning of the film i heard one dialogue ... who are you? the answer is..." i am a program which has not reached the source code. " . There after, i went to sleep peacefully.

I saw Perfect Stranger,It was a big disappointment for me.

I did like the movie Monster Ball.The pace of the movie is slow but the storyline is really great.

Yep,I did like Monster Ball.Well acted and well directed movie.She deserved Oscar for it.



Recently I saw The Butterfly Effect.It was an average movie,maybe my expectations were too high.

Yep,I have seen it.Its a good movie however the end was bit exaggerated with to much action.It has all the features of a good Sci-Fi movie.

If I have to rate Transformers and Die Hard-4,I will choose Transformers.Die Hard-4 has no head and tail.Very disappointed by the script,though some of the scenes are realy good.

mmuk2004 never judge a book by its cover.You want to know the reason ?



I guess you have enough reasons now to watch the movie.Its an above average Sci-Fi Movie.Some of my friends just love it.

Cheers

Anyone seen American Gangster yet? If so what did you think of it? It was being touted as the next Godfather, I have to say that while I enjoyed the film immensely it fell short of being in that category.

I will strongly recommend everyone to watch this movie.You will enjoy every second of this animated movie.Its all about being youself.It has a meaninful story along with great humor.


Someone asked me,if its about cooking?



I replied nope,Its all about finding yourself inside you.

A mighty Heart


Based on true story of Daniel Pearl,who was executed by terrorists after kidnap.A well made movie on the crisis of post 9/11 in Pakistan.


Good acting by Angie and Irfan


At times you will find the pace of the movie is slow,maybe it is required to depict the suitation.

Hey Idol,
Wow... I wasn't expecting anyone to have read Kite Runner at HF !!! I just got a copy from my library ( Actually I was looking for "A thousand splendid suns" by the same author,but couldn't get it ) !!! Now that you mentioned about the movie, I'm wondering if I should grab the movie instead
Shall let you know how I find it !!

I watched this movie two days back.It almost took my breath away.Everything is perfect about this movie.

I think this is for the first time,when a movie has logically shown the making of Pyramids.

I have no idea why this movie has been under-rated.If i compare it with 300 or Troy, This movie is better in every sense.The best part is that you will never get bored of it.Each scene will fill you will thrill.

A MUST WATCH MOVIE
