Movie Review: Now You See Me

Now You See Me

 

Directed by: Louis Leterrier

Starring:

Jesse Eisenberg as D. Michael Atlas

Morgan Freeman as Thaddeus Bradley

Mark Ruffalo as Detective Hobbs

Isla Fisher as Hennley

Dave Franco as Jack Wilder

Woody Harrelson as Merritt McKinney 

Oh you'd never guess the twist in this movie. Haha!! I bet no one did. 

 

 

'Always be the smartest one in the room'

What a neat trick Michael Atlas! Jesse Eisenberg is so perfect for arrogant, smart-ass roles. He suits them so much! The talking fast, know it all act is something he has definitely mastered. Hoorah! Well thinking about it kind of versatile. He can also do the shy type, never been kissed roles like in Zombieland and Adventureland. (haha both titles got the word land in them) Right? Well he's adorable and applause to him!

Seriously. The closer you look....

The less you will see. 

Overall though the movie was pretty good. Pretty spectacular cause of the neat tricks and all that, the secrecy in everything and the mysteriousness in why they are doing all of those. They certainly weren't in it for the money but for the fame, success and just purely to entertain the crowd. The story though was a little bit too short? Well for me it was. It lacked the "story" itself in the movie that it needed a little bit more details on how it leads to the end. I mean we all got why all those happened, connecting this in that but it really lacked that umph in it.

But still great actors in one film so who would not want to see it? Plus their trailer is just amazeballs! 

 

On this scene gosh. What a neat trick! Dave Franco definitely did a great action scene here. Bravo to you. You do look handsome by the way hihi. With that slight cowboy -ish accent of your. Rarr!

 We are the four horsemen and goodnight!

(I can always here Isla Fisher's voice standing out when the four of them say this haha!)

The kind of movie that it felt like the whole thing was the climax! For every action scene you would think that it would end already but damn. It was so action all throughout that my heart was kinda racing cause I was just so excited with every scene. 

What a great story and gosh the twists was just amazeballs!!!

A definite must see if you still have not.

Movie Review: Star Trek: Into Darkness

Star Trek: Into Darkness

Directed by: J.J. Abrams

Starring:

Chris Pine as Kirk

Zachary Quinto as Spock

Zoe Saldana as Uhura

Kalr Urban: Dr. Bones

Simon Pegg as Scotty

Benedict Cumberbatch as Khan

This installment was so awesome! I felt the value of feeling, family and love for friends, mentor, family and also your lover.

I was a little bit on the edge of my seat all throughout the film. It was really entertaining and good! Nothing much to say about it or else I'd be totally spoiling (which I hate haha). A definite must watch! No connection with the first one but gotta watch the one before this installment before watching.

 
Their scene in the end just proved how much Spock could really feel and how their friendship is strong. I did hope that gfdsagdsf died in the end cause it was such a great exit already but then again twistidy twist!

Anton Yelchin is such a cutie patootsie! I love him and his character! He is such a jittery panick-er and it makes him so much more adorable! He's also cute looking hihi. Love him especially in Fright Nigh. Hottie much?

Zoe Saldana's role in the movie was pretty brief but good job! Her and Spock do make a kinda good couple hehe

Movie Review: Trance

Directed by: Danny Boyle

Starring:

James McAvoy as Simon

Rosario Dawson as Dr. Elizabeth Lamb

Vincent Cassel as Franck

Danny Boyle is known for his famous films such as Slumdog Millionaire, 127 Hours & 28 Days Later. Trance is another one of his that may be one for keeps. It is pretty brain boggling because you might get caught in the scenes of this film where it's a bit confusing. Watching this movie needs your full attention cause if you miss out on just a line of the character or the flow of the movie, you might just get lost. 

It's a pretty heavy connect the dots sort of film. It is actually pretty good despite the nudity it showed. (Just a thought, whenever there's a film that shows nudity, it's always the girl who goes full on naked while the dude just shows his ass. What's the catch in that?) But the story itself is pretty good upon contemplating on it after watching it in the cinemas. 

Confusion is your main enemy here. You get to think and even sense things before it happens. You think about who the real enemy is and where is it. Job well done to Dannny Boyle and of course James McAvoy. What a great job he did on playing his role.

Movie Review: Iron Man 3

 Directed by: Shane Black

Starring:

Robert Downy Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man / The Mechanic

Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts

Don Cheadle as James Rhodes / War Machine / Iron

Guy Pears as Aldrich Killian

First and foremost I just have to say that the movie would not be complete if it weren't for the character of Gwyneth Paltrow, Pepper Potts. She was just so adorable and just the center of Tony Stark's life and they just have a delightful love story. So cute the two of them!! How they show their love for each other is just delightful and pretty realistic minus the being Iron Man of Tony Stark. Applause for Gwenyth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr. for playing their roles real well! This calls for a Grammy nomination! Kidding! 

The trailers has again failed me. I expected kind of a bit too much but nevertheless, the movie was superb! Very entertaining and full of light action. I must say though that the second Iron Man film will be the best among the three but how the love and affection of Tony and Pepper in this installment was just engaging! I fell absolutely in love with the two of them! They are definitely meant to be together how I wish though that they showed more lovey dovey scenes. Just kidding.


Great film! And by the way do not go out right away! Better wait for the credits to finish because there's a little sneak peak of what happens after the ending.


And so once again Marvel has produced a remarkable super-hero film. A definite must watch for everyone especially the Marvel and/or super-heroes film! Also watch out for the second installment of Thor! "Thor: The Dark World" (See trailer here)

Movie Review: Olympus Has Fallen

Directed by: Antoine Fuqua

Starring:

Gerard Butler as Mike Banning

Aaron Eckhart as President Asher

Morgan Freeman as Speaker Trumbull & Acting President

Absolutely brilliant and thrilling! An action filled movie that is a must see. Kinda brutal that is why it is rated R-13 but what the heck! A still must watch especially if you are a dude you would definitely enjoy this film.

Okay so this movie just kept me on my bottoms the whole time! So much action and you just want to stare at Gerard Butler and hope he shows his perfectly built, muscular behind! hihi. And damn how he moves! He is perfect for action film. I was actually for hoping for him to flash his perfectly built muscular behind! It is so perfect his girlfriend Madalina Ghenea is way too lucky!!!

Gerard Butler's character in this film is so smart and slightly cocky at the same time. He loves working in the White House and he would do just anything to keep the job and keep the safety of President Asher and his family and of course the United States of America. Though Aaron Eckhart as the President of the United States does not really suit him (well for me). I still kinda see him as the villain in every film like in The Dark Knight. He just seems like he has the anti-superhero a.k.a. bad guy look! But job well done in portraying his character.

There are some parts that need something kaboom-ing but still!! What a great film.  I won't go to deets anymore but I definitely love this film and recommending it to everyone!
