'The Avengers' is #1 at box office for third week!

‘The Avengers’ had another epic weekend at number one, adding $55.1 million dollars to their golden pot, which is almost half a million in the U.S. alone. Disney’s biggest blockbuster continues to take over the world.

A big release for Memorial Day Weekend ‘Battleship’ opened in second place with $25.3 million dollars. This naval board game brought to life was rumored to beat the superheroes, but it obviously wasn’t nearly a threat.

Sacha Baron Cohen’s new comedy ‘The Dictator’, reached third place collecting $17.4 million dollars. His eccentric new character, which is willing to risk his life to keep democracy from reaching his dictatorship hasn’t been well received, but it seems that his followers gave him a chance.

 

 

The Top 10 Movies in the Box Office are:

1. The Avengers – $55.1 mil

2. Battleship – $25.3 mil

3. The Dictator – $17.4 mil

4. Dark Shadows – $12.8 mil

Men In Black 3 (Movie Review)

05.21.2012 | By |

Men In Black 3

‘Men in Black III’ comes a decade later after ‘Men in Black II’, despite of the amount of time that separate them and it being part of the franchise, it stands well on its on. Clearly director Barry Sonnenfeld still knows what works for Men in Black and its audience. The special effects are phenomenal; the detail given to every alien character is outstanding, so much so that the realness of it can easily gross one out. The screening I went to was in 3D and I can say that the 3D is pretty good; the shots taken off the ledge of New York City’s Chrysler building made me a bit dizzy. The film does a good job at encompassing its predecessors without making a person unfamiliar with them feel lost. This is definitely a family film to watch during Memorial Day Weekend.

 

In this chapter of the Men in Black, Agent J (Will Smith) is forced to travel to the early years of the agency in 1969, to prevent an alien known as Boris the Animal (Jermaine Clement) from killing his partner K (Tommy Lee Jones) and at the same time saving the world from a future invasion and destruction. Agent J has 24 hours to prevent history from changing; he gets to meet and deal with the younger version of Agent K (Josh Brolin), and also discovers other secrets about the agency.

 

There are many cameos in the film, but some of the most talked about such as Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber are barely noticeable. Although Smith still has the same smart mouth as in the past two films, here he’s lost his childish comedy, which means a lot of funny moments the others delivered have been lost. The emotional ties are stronger than the comedy, which perhaps won’t work much for its target audience as the film begins to feel a bit long, the beginning of the film is too fast paced and then it seems to go in slow motion for a while.  

 

The best part about time traveling were the incorporations of Coney Island during the 60’s and Bill Hader as Andy Warhol, there’s many clever historic references here. As mentioned above the special effects were worth the $215 million dollars spent in making the film. We can see this on Boris The Animal, the villain’s presence and voice are perfectly horrific. My favorite character was young Agent K; Brolin is a flawless impersonator and he picked up the mannerisms and everything else from the older version of his character as if they were his own.

 

PG-13 is a perfect rating for this film, as it might get too convoluted and fast paced for a younger audience anyway. As a sequel this film adds on to the story and doesn’t damage it in any way, which very few sequels manage to do. Since there’s consideration of perhaps a ‘Men in Black 4’, which is not a surprise seeing that there’s still plenty of material to work from, other actors should be considered since both of the main charters seemed a bit tired in their roles. This will be a fun film for parents who enjoyed the past films and teens that might be enjoying their first ‘Men in Black’ adventure.

‘Anchorman 2’ – First Teaser Trailer!

05.21.2012 | By |

'Anchorman 2' - First Teaser Trailer!

Director Adam McKay released the first teaser trailer of ‘Anchorman 2 ’ or ‘Anchorman: The Legend Continues’ last Wednesday in theaters with ‘The Dictator’, it is set to open in 2013.

This is something we’ve all been waiting for, since Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) made the big announcement about the sequel on Conan.

The plot possibly will have something to do with a diverse 24- hour news broadcast, as that’s how the last one closed off. We can be sure that it will be filled with hilarious and cruel one- liners like the ones delivered in ‘Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy’. Check out the trailer!

Battleship (Movie Review)

05.14.2012 | By |

Battleship

‘Battleship’ is based on the Hasbro naval combat game, so not much is expected of it but lots of mindless explosions and shooting. The film fulfills exactly that expectation, because besides the amazing special effects there’s nothing else nutritious in it. This navy propaganda movie has an extremely weak storyline, encompassing dialogue and comedy that are merely attached to try to make the film function as a whole. This movie continues the alien movie lineup to be seen this summer, I’m quite sure this will be the worst one of them all.

 

The Storyline revolves around Alex Hooper (Taylor Kitsch), who is basically a screw up and doesn’t have many goals for himself. His older brother Stone (Alexander Skarsgård) is the complete opposite and enrolls him in the navy. After what seems a couple of years later, Alex becomes a lieutenant and during a Naval war games exercise in Hawaii his crew, which includes R&B singer Rihanna, get involved in an extraterrestrial sea battle for the Earth’s survival.

 

The movie wastes a lot of time building a back-story, made up of romance and the brothers bonding along with an enormous amount of Navy propaganda. All pretty unnecessary and somewhat boring, that whole first 30 minutes or so could have been reduced to a five minute clip. The most outstanding thing in this movie are the spaceships, they are so real and detailed and the explosions and action they deliver are the best things this movie offers. The Halo like outfitted aliens are somewhat original and more real than most, but despite the obvious fact that they are more technologically advanced than us there’s not a lot of intelligent actions on their part.    

 

Liam Neeson once more signs up to be used as an advertisement tool by a mediocre film, given the fact that if you put all the scenes he’s in total, we only see him for about ten minutes. I actually wasn’t too annoyed by Rihanna, since most people such as myself have already judged the movie by her being in it; she played a tough chick without her usual eroticism in her music videos and just followed orders, her lines like the rest of the script are just flat; so not much acting was used. Kitsch and Decker are just eye candy, because nothing really intelligent comes out of their mouths. Another interesting scheme used to persuade the public into cheering for the movie is an appearance by a President of the United States, if this isn’t the biggest most annoying use of propaganda, I don’t know what is. The movie screams patriotism in a cheesy, in your face, “be a hero and sacrifice your life for your country†kind of way.

 

The storyline is so weak that it seems to contradict itself towards the end and there’s never a clear reason as to what the aliens are doing in our planet. It’s just an all out war and a whole lot of shooting without an explanation behind it. What’s worst is there’s a scene at the end of the credits that alludes to a second part. If you enjoy action for the sake of it and don’t care about anything else that makes up a movie, then you can enjoy this. Otherwise, I say wait for the rest of the alien invasion arriving this summer 2012 in theaters.

'The Avengers' breaks more records at box office!

‘The Avengers’ continues breaking records on its second opening weekend with $103.2 million dollars, exceeding 1 billion dollars worldwide. This action movie only dropped by 50%, which is the smallest decline that any blockbuster has ever had. It surpassed the second box office weekend record that ‘Avatar’ held.

Tim Burton and Johnny Depp’s obscure film, ‘Dark Shadows’ took second place with $28.8 million dollars. This movie which is typical Burton style, might stay in the box office for a while given its star power.

The comedy, which has remained high in the box office, ‘Think Like a Man’, ended up in third place with $6.3 million dollars. Followed by ‘The Hunger Games’, both have fought endlessly to continue in the prestigious list.

 

 

The Top 10 Movies in the Box Office are:

1.The Avengers – $103.2 mil

2. Dark Shadows – $28.8 mil

3. Think Like a Man – $6.3 mil

4. The Hunger Games – $4.4 mil

5. The Lucky One – $4.1 mil

Dark Shadows (Movie Review)

05.9.2012 | By |

Dark Shadows

Anyone would say that director Tim Burton has decided to jump on the vampire bandwagon, as he decided to take ‘Dark Shadows’ a popular gothic soap opera from the 60’s and make it into a movie; an idea that might bleed into a couple of extra projects under the same theme. Burton of course made this his own, using a vibrant darkness aka his signature style all throughout it. There’s no denying that he’s a master of his art and that can be seen in the beautiful sceneries, costumes, make up, and even special effects. Thanks to Burton’s talent as well as strong acting the semi hollow storyline and the silly romance don’t manage to ruin the movie.

 

The film is set in Maine, it begins with the Collins family history from 1750 when they left Liverpool to settle in the New World, to make and spread their wealth. All goes awry for this successful family when a witch, Angelique Bouchard (Eva Green) becomes infatuated with young Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp). Unfortunately, Barnabas falls in love with Josette DuPres (Bella Heathcote); vengeful the witch curses the family and anything they touch. Her worst offense is turning Barnabas into a vampire and locking him away as punishment. He’s freed from his imprisonment almost two decades later in 1972; where he surfaces to find that although his family name still lives on, it has fallen into ruins. He joins his remaining descendants: Elizabeth (Michelle Pfeiffer), Roger (Jonny Lee Miller), Carolyn (Chloe Grace Moretz) and David (Gully McGrath) who’ve hired a live-in psychiatrist, Dr. Julia Hoffman (Helena Bonham Carter). Together Barnabas hopes to bring his family name back to its former glory.

 

The first thought after seeing a picture of this whole cast together in costume was, “here’s a quirkier version of the Addams Familyâ€, and they are not far from it. The film encompasses the TV series it is based on well as it took its formulaic elements: the paranormal, including vampires, witches, ghosts, werewolves, and even time travel.  It’s clever to put a wealthy proper man turned vampire from the 1700’s to explore a life during the 1970’s, one of the most peculiar times in history. There’s some chuckles along the way, plenty of references to stuff from the 70’s, jokes full of double meaning, sexual tension and an interesting yet unmoving cameo by Alice Cooper. There’s things that threaten to harm the gothic coolness of this movie, such as a childish love story, a “sexy†hormone charged teenager, a storyline that doesn’t seem to follow a clear pattern, ending with a culminating yet easy solution that’s somewhat anti-climatic and desperately dramatic. I will blame most of the corniness of the film on the fact that this is based on a soap opera.

 

Depp has satisfied many fans dreams by playing a vampire and he does it masterfully, this being his eight collaboration with Burton, it’s easy to see how comfortable and natural they are together. Green was fantastic at being evil, sexy and powerful all at once. Pfeiffer delivers a balance between the odd and the normal, and although her acting is strong at times it merely feels like she’s delivering lines. Bonham Carter, Burton’s partner and one of his favorites, plays a similar role to those in most of his movies.

 

Some of the jokes are a little forced and the previews have given away too many of them, some also seem to want to satisfy the PG-13 audience. On the other hand, there’s scenes that are taken too far and although I know Burton is a master of the macabre, my least favorite is Depp slapping a woman more than once, no matter how evil she is I was uncomfortable viewing it.  

 

It’s understandable that trying to bring a beloved gothic soap opera, which lasted for about 5 years, to the big screen is a challenge. If the project is developed on to make a couple of extra chapters, this could help fill in some of the holes in the story such as the vampire’s “new†love interest background as there are still some questions. The humor although at times silly, helped the story move along and perhaps I’m missing some things since I never saw the soap opera. I was able to over look the flaws of the film being distracted by what Burton does best, which is use his darkness to create a mysterious, elegant, beautiful and attractive film. I also enjoyed seeing Depp as a vampire; he was charming and naively funny. This duo hasn’t managed to achieve the greatness they have before in the last couple of their films together, and this one can be added to that list; but yet this is still a fun enough movie to watch with your older kids.

The Avengers (Movie Review)

05.3.2012 | By |

The Avengers

‘The Avengers’ hasn’t even opened in theaters in the United States and it has already made about $260 million worldwide which covers its cost, which was $220 million, this alone describes the craze and buzz this movie has created. It’s hard to deny even not being a part of phenomenon, that this is a great action packed movie. We all like: Superheroes, special effects, alien attack, fights, space ships, saving the world, comedy. The special effects are fantastic, from Iron Man’s suit to The Hulk and the evil aliens. There are many weak points in the storyline, but if you’ve been wanting to go watch this movie more than anything is because of the action it has, I doubt many people want to watch it for its dialogue or depth. One thing this superhero movie does best is shine a light on all the beloved characters, although some or a bit more important than others it is all about team work.   

 

In this comic book brought to life the espionage agency S.H.I.E.L.D. calls in the superheroes after an energy source of unknown potency, tesseract, opens a portal through outer space and the Norse god Loki (Tom Hiddleston) crosses over and steals it, hypnotizing some of the scientist that had been working with the energy source, Clint Barton or Hawkeye (Jeremy Reener) and Selvig (Stellan Skarsgård). At this point Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) has no choice but to go against the government’s wishes and reactivate the Avengers Initiative. So, while the superheroes are gathered we get to see a bit of what each one of them has been up to, with a little background explanation on who each one of them is. We first see Russian spy Natasha Romanoff better known as Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), she is sent to India to get Bruce Banner aka The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) because he might be the only one that can track the tessarct. Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) goes to collect the multimillionaire scientist Tony Stark or Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.). Steve Rogers aka Captain America (Chris Evans) is asked to join since the energy source was found in the ocean after his freak accident that made him a superhero. Finally the demigod Thor (Chris Hemsworth) crashes the scene as he’s trying to get his brother Loki to change his mind and leave planet earth alone. All these different personalities, which the government views as freaks, must come together to save the world before alien forces take over the planet.      

 

The movie is 143 minutes long and at times it does start dragging, when the superheroes can’t get along because of their egos, but fortunately the culminating action scenes saves anything that was wrong with the film. Personality wise Iron Man is the most likeable character, because of his calm, funny, and sarcastic views on life and the other characters. It is always awesome seeing a girl kick ass and Johansson does a great job keeping up with these superheroes when she’s basically the only human. There’s an unnecessary and uncharacteristic point where she’s portrayed as being weak, but minutes later she’s ready to kill huge robot like monster aliens. For some reason Captain America becomes the leader, perhaps because of his military background and although many seem to dislike his goodie two shoes personality, however, he’s able to carry out an organized team effort. Thor is just the odd extraterrestrial being, that knows this evil forces good enough and cares for planet earth to be able to give the superheroes and advantage. There’s no denying though that The Hulk is probably everyone’s favorite superhero, it could be because he’s not a thinker but a doer and although he’s hard to control somehow the beast realizes what his place is and when to SMASH.

 

There’s a fierce competition of popularity between Iron Man and The Hulk, they both steal the show and are even more superheroey than most when the situation calls for it. I have to admit that at times there is too much going on at once and some characters seem to be forgotten, while others are sitting around or being chased unnecessarily, but it all comes together so masterfully, ironically enough when disaster breaks out. The 3D effects are not glorious, so save your pennies and watch it on the regular screen; also, make sure to sit around after the movie is over as there are two extra scenes at the end. The Avengers is an unstoppable force that will continue to succeed, there being talks of another Hulk, Iron Man and Avengers 2 movies.
