The Brave One- Movie Review

Yawn…. This is a movie that at the end you think to yourself “Why did they make it”?  “Was there anything original or surprising there? Nah.”. It is not a bad movie when you consider  the acting or the way it is made, but… it is slow, predictable, the music can put you to sleep … Read more

Rambo – Movie Review

Ah, if only it was played by someone else. Look, chapeau to Sly, he’s made a huge franchise(s) and got his undeniable fame and fortune, and the bottom line speaks for itself… The movie is fun…. but…. I can’t ignore looking at his face and getting the sensation that he “ain’t the sharpest tool in … Read more

Hancock – Movie Review

And I like it… Fun movie, good story if a little predictable at some point, and Charlize Theron is really hot (well, maybe Will is hot too, but I don’t swing that way…). The movie is done well, funny, has good action in it, realistic in a comic-book sense, where the super hero has power … Read more

Wanted – Movie Review

Good but could’ve been better. Overall a good action movie. Has a certain fresh approach in it.  A little farfetched at times, but not too much to make you annoyed. James McAvoy is doing a good job as the lead role, being converted from a pushover cubical resident to a tough ass kicking pro. I … Read more

The Incredible Hulk – Movie Review

Better than the first one. To start with, I believe that Ed Norton plays a much better Bruce Banner than Eric Bana, also the animated parts were better than in the first one, although still too animation-like. Liv Tyler is a little off. So is William Hurt – he didn’t convince me as a general … Read more

The Happening – Movie Review

Don’t bother. I love sci-fi, but the acting and the dialogs in this movie make it so only-for-video C movie that it is ridicules. Mark Wahlberg  played in a few movies I really liked (The Big Hit was one of them, funny and easy to watch action movie, Shooter, The Italian Job….), and maybe is … Read more

Get Smart – Movie Review

This one was funny. Steve Carell is a perfect Max, and the movie is very true to the original in a modern way… maybe too true at times, with a few too silly parts… The cast is good…. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is fun as usual, Alan Arkin is acting great, Anne Hathaway was cool…. … Read more

Oil Prices – grrrrr.

I’m no expert on global economy neither about oil prices, but the way I see it, oil prices control can be classified as terrorism. Generally speaking (and there should be a disclaimer here) it doesn’t get more expensive to produces oil, definitely not at the same increase factors that oil prices are taking, so prices … Read more
