X-MEN
At last, a movie adaptation from a successful comic sells at the box-office. Opening at almost US$60 million
odd over the weekend, this blast is breaking records. With a cast of models and killer effects, this action movie is
stunning from costumes and sets to stuns and visual f/x. Watch out for this monster film to start on its sequel.
Other than Wolverine (played amazingly by Hugh Jackman), the evil mutants are the ones to watch out for... ah sweet Mystique.
Edward Norton's directorial debut is pretty okay. Nothing fancy but interesting enough worthy of mention. Love triangle that is
not too complicated and dramatic but light, fun and all too wholesome. Fans of his or sweet little tales of a priest falling for a power business
babe who is in love with a rabbi, who happens to be the priest's best friend... you ought to check this one out.
Filled mostly with atmospheric sounds or quietness, some screams, lots of built up thrills, and extremely minimal sets,
What Lies Beneath is not exactly haunting but highly suspenseful. Check out the plot twists and cheap thrills and let me know what
you think. Pretty watchable.
Crude and sucks.
This special f/x movie is surprisingly pretty well done with suspense, thrills, plot changes and a superb work on the visual effects.
Set in a lab (as usual) and shot tightly, this film is highly enjoyable... did I mention that the effects are amazing?
For a teen flick, this one is not bad... with a fresh and rather entertaining storyline about a secret society in a high school, it serves
as a nice fantasy for those of us stuck in a mundane university life. Catch Joshua Jackson, again, and new blood from Popular in this
mildly successful movie.
