Identity Thief Trailer 2012 - new 2013 Movie - Official [HD]

Die Hard 5 Official Trailer (2013)

Argo vs. Alex Cross

I give Tyler Perry “Props” for trying to break away from Madea, but to try and play a role that Morgan Freeman used to play is too much of a stretch for him. Perry is just not good at performing drama. In comedies he is great but in a dramatic movie where he is after a super evil dude he is just ok. Speaking of super evil dude, Matthew Fox from Lost tries to break his nice guy typecast and portrays a psycho in the movie. Fox does a better job of transitioning than Perry but his character in the movie is kind of stupid and there is zero character development so you have no idea why he is crazy. So you end up not caring. The movie is a Snorefest and whould have gone straight to video if Tyler Perry was not in it.

It’s Oscar season and studios are shelling out money promoting their movies. Argo is the true story about the 1980 joint CIA-Canadian secret operation to extract six fugitive American diplomatic personnel out of revolutionary Iran. Ben Affleck directs and stars as Tony Mendez (does not look anything like him) the guy who helps extract the Americans. The movie is solid for what it is, a feel good documentary with bits of Hollywood “Sizzle” added in for tension. That’s it. It’s not Oscar worthy and you will not want to watch it again. Ben Affleck is becoming the new Clint Eastwood (actor turned Director) but his prior movie The Town is far more superior to Argo.

Verdict:
If you have to see one then Argo wins hands down. What do you think?

Idris Elba Meets with Producers About Playing James Bond

 Idris Elba as James Bond? Granted, Daniel Craig still has two movies left on his contract, but in the off-chance he bails early (as so many previous Bond actors have), Bond movie producer Barbara Broccolli has met with the actor about assuming the role.
Elba joins a shortlist of replacements once Craig fulfills his Bond duties, including Michael Fassbender, Hugh Jackman and Tom Hardy. What makes Elba becoming a potential Bond particularly intriguing, aside from the obvious race issue, is that the franchise would drift away from a series of actors portraying the same character to dare we say, a reboot?
Naomie Harris, who stars in the upcoming Skyfall told The Huffington Post that, "I didn't realize that there was this talk [about a black Bond], and then I did a film with Idris and he said that he had met with Barbara Broccolli and that it does seem like there is a possibility in the future that there could very well be a black James Bond. And I would have to vote for Idris because I just finished working with him and he's a great guy."
Elba has previously said that he would be honored to play the role should the opportunity come his way.
Keep in mind this was only a preliminary meeting with interested actors and Broccoli has not commented on the matter.
It does raise an interesting question though. Would you support a potential reboot and a black James Bond or would you prefer the role to continue being passed down to dapper white guys?

Taken 2

Taken fans have waited 2 years for this sequel and they pretty much get a so so movie. Don’t get me wrong, Liam Neeson is still great as retired CIA operative Bryan Mills, and the character he plays delivers in spades but there are not a lot of surprises.
This time they (the father of the men he killed in Taken) kidnap Neeson and his wife in Istanbul (would have worked better in the States but directors love scenic locals). Also this time his daughter wants to help.
The action is good but it does not have you on the edge of your seat like the first Taken movie.

Verdict:

This is still a decent action flick but it will make you want to go back and re-watch the first movie. What do you think? Was this movie disappointing?

Looper

This movie has a great script, good acting, and lots of action.The story takes place in the near future when the mob wants to get rid of someone, the target is sent 30 years into the past, where a hired gun (a Looper) awaits. One day a Looper, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, learns the mob wants to 'close the loop' by transporting back Joe's future self.

Where I lost it was with the casting of Jeff Daniels as the bad guy who manages the Looper’s. To me he didn’t come off as someone to fear and I felt you needed like a Giancarlo Esposito from Breaking Bad to play that role.

Bruce Willis is fine but in this movie he plays himself,meaing if you like Bruce Willis you will like him in this movie. Emily Blunt stars as well but in a supporting role. I look forward to her starring in her own movie and showcasing her talents that made her famous from Devil Wears Prada. It's been awhile.

Verdict:
Good action movie and decent Special Effects. Do you agree?

Hotel Transylvania

Selena Gomez is one of the most underrated talents around today.  She stars in this movie with Adam Sandler (who has not had a solid hit in a while) and a few of his cronies i.e: David Spade. The story is about Dracula, who operates a high-end resort away from the human world, goes into overprotective mode when a boy discovers the resort and falls for the count's teen-aged daughter.

The movie is cute and there are no slow spots.

Verdict:

Good movie for the family to see but you don’t need to see it in 3D. DId you like it?

Resident Evil: Retribution

Ok so how does Milla Jovovich end up looking younger and more vivacious in this episode of the series? If she is having work done then her doctor should get an Oscar. Anyway she kicks ass again in her black skin tight outfit similar to Kate Beckinsale’s character in Underworld. They might as well write a story where they end up fighting each other similar to Freddy vs. Jason. That’s something I would pay to see.

For those of you looking to see this chapter in the franchise be prepared to feel as if you are watching a video game. Also Michelle Rodriquez is in the movie but not enough. I wanted to see more of her in action.

Verdict:

The tag line for this movie is "Evil Goes Global", snore! Lets just get to the final chapter already. Do you think we need another Resident Evil flick?
