The Dark Knight- Movie Review

Oh so dark and never ending …   Why? Why keep me in the theatre for 2.5 hours? Overall acting was great. Michael Caine is one and only, Heath Ledger did an amazing job, Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, all great actors, each in his own (if somewhat crazy) way… but who casted Eric Roberts? … Read more

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
