POMPEII cert 12 Constantin Films 2014 5030305518189 A history drama set in ancient rome. Stars Kit Harington as Milo, a Celt sold into slavery and later trained to be a gladiator. Emily Browning plays Cassia. Her parents are played by Jared Harris and Carrie Anne Moss. Kiefer Sutherland is the evil Senator. Imdb for full listing. A film by Paul W.S Anderson. A great cast and good special effects. Story starts of in Brittania and finishing up in Pompeii. There is a ticking timebomb in the form of Mount Vesuvius. A good apocalytpic/disaster theme. If you liked Noah, Gladiator, Clash Of The Titans then I recommend that you see this. The opening scene was good which the ash having covered everything. A superb quote appears made by someone. I like the soundtrack. The trailer was impressive. I rented this from the libray. The special features are deleted scenes, commentary, making of. Out to rent/buy now. Please see my other film posts. http://ki5h0re.blogspot.com
THE TWO FACES OF JANUARY Studiocanal/Working title 2014. cert 12. 5055201825551. Thriller set in Athens, Greece 1962. Based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith, who also wrote The Talented Mr. Ripley. The trailer for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is impressive. Viggo Mortensen plays a wealthy businessman named Chester that is holidaying with his young wife Colette (Kirsten Dunst). Their tour guide Rydal (Oscar Isaac) is not all he seems. They have been in many good films, which I'll link to. Rydal had recieved a letter from his mother asking him to attend his father's funeral. He is abit of a hustler. Some plot twists, elements of revenge, paranoia and a love triangle. Contains moderate violence and swearing. Some dialogue in greek, subtitled in english. One clever scene in the market stall that i'm trying to work out. Chester fought in WW2. A strange man has turned up at the hotel. He represents a client that invested money with Chester. They're on the run. Good look at the scenery and greek culture. Good acting. See the trailer.
Colette takes of her bra. You see a side-boob. No bonus features, would've been nice to see some extras. The characters are questioning who to trust. Weird little girl asking to wear Colette's sunglasses. I reckon there are positive reviews on Amazon. Lots of suspense. With the drama, you could call it a 'greek tragedy'. Some scenes shot in Istanbul, Turkey. The soundtrack is a mix of classical and folk music. I think you should see this. Out to rent/buy now.

THE WOLF OF WALL STREET directed by Martin Scorcese. You might also like Wall St, Rogue Trader, Boiler Room, The Lincoln Lawyer, Abritage. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill, Margot Robbie, Matthew McConaughey, Kyle Chandler, Rob Reiner, Jon Favreau, Jean Dujardin, Joanna Lumley. Cert 18 5050582972825 Universal 2013. A comedy drama based on a true story by Jordan Belfort. It's about money, sex, drugs, power, corruption. Set in the 80s. It opens with an advert for a financial company. The story follows Jordan Belfont. He narrates, sometimes talks to camera. This film did offend some feminists and christians. Attractive model wife Naomi. She gives him a blowjob in his car. Amazing tits. She has a great body as does the hooker (Natalie Bensel) Jordan was smoking drugs off. Katerina Cas as Chantelle. Flashback scene: Mark Hannan is his boss in the stock market. Jordan age 22, first day on Wall St. Innocent and well behaved. A great cast of actors. Lots of swearing, sex and drug use. Nice tits on display. Become a webcam model #thefappening Nudity in films
A vast array of characters, the nasdaq hooker, blue chip prostitute. Mad Max aka Jordan's dad is funny. More crazier than Malcolm Tucker. Jonah hill does well as Jordan's assistant Donny. You have the shouty receptionist. The actor playing Brad was the original cast member of The Walking Dead. I'm learning quite abit about the stock exchange. There are some Wall St affiliate programs to join. Showing some old footage. The behind the scenes and bloopers must be good. His first wife Teresa was lovely. Not very politically correct. I understand why it offended some folk. It's a funny film. Some good dialogue. It has won awards. There are plenty of good law abiding stock brokers. Most films glorify criminals. Glad to see all these naked female bodies. http://admiringthefemaleform.com A mixed soundtrack. A film that you should see.

Opening scene John (Arnie) is watching a ransom video possibly his wife is the one on it. Being tortured by some criminals. 8 months later the team of DEA agents are on a mission. There are drug cartels that they're up against. At this party there are some hot girls. A short scene with two girls kissing. One is topless, superb tits. Contains strong violence, sex references, swearing. Good action pieces and stunts. There was a load of cash. The squad are taking their cut. Very sneaky. Lizzy (Enos) is a hot red head, she was working on the inside. Monster (Worthington) is her husband. Enos was in Devil's Knot, World War Z. Two great films. Two of the cast played main Lost characters (Michael and Sawyer). The team are under investigation. Each character is introduced. The strip club wasn't very lively. They had become targets. One by one they are being taken out. Focusing on dialogue. The strippers were hot, as was the hostage lady in the safe house. Clever editing and camera work. Some accents are slipping. Expecting some twists. John's son was also taken. There is a delay with the special effects. A good cast of actors that a long career behind them. Feel free to check it out.
5017239142833 Cert 12 Weinstein Company/Walden Media 2014. The Giver cast Brenton Thwaites, Jeff Bridges, Alexander Skarssgard, Katie Holmes, Taylor Swift, Cameron Monaghan, Odeya Rush, Emma Tremblay, Meryl Streep. Based on the novel by Lois Lowry. Screenplay by Michael Mitnick and Robert B Weide. Directed by Philip Noyce.
There are a few good trailers for films which I may just watch. Released by the same company. I like the music that's playing on the menu screen. This is a SciFi drama. Jonas is a teenage boy coming to the end of his college days. At the graduation ceremony the teens are given their roles. It is set in the post apocalyptic future. Mankind has decided to start over. The Elders watch over everything. New rules are in place. Good cinematography. Lots of stock footage representing the history of mankind. In the new society everything is monochrome. It has scenes in colour too. If you like Equilibrium, Inception, Hunger Games, Ender's Game then you should see this. Beautiful soundtrack. Jonas gets training from The Giver. He must harvest all the memories and advise the people on difficult situations. I was not sure what to expect. The girl friend Fiona is pretty, looks like Mila Kunis. Brenton was in Snow White And The Huntsman. He is cute. It is emotional and sentimental. I recommend this film.
X-MEN Days Of Future Past. Hugh Jackman, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Nicholas Hoult, Jennifer Lawrence, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen
A scifi action drama based on the Marvel comic book series. It's a much darker tone. Contains swearing, violence, nudity and humour. Cert 15. 20th Century Fox 2014. Directed by Bryan Singer. Brings together the old cast and new. Ellen Page, Halle Berry also appear. You might've seen Kick-Ass, Super, Man Of Steel, Dark Knight trilogy. Starts of in the apocalyptic future where most mutants have been wiped out. Huge indestructable beings called Sentinels are hunting the X-men. The scene is in several locations. I like the special effects. Great action and funny moments. One girl opens up portals which helps her dodge the enemy. Another moves really fast which sets up a good scene. Charles and Eric are working together. Kitty Pryde helps Logan to travel back in time to 1973 Quantum Leap style. He must locate the young X-men, prevent Mystique from killing Trask (inventor of Sentinels). Good attention to detail. Page and JLaw look hot. Nice music. There's a post credit scene. I saw this at Odean for £5. Pre-order your dvd.

Special 26. Bollywood movie starring Akshay Kumar, Kajal Aggarwal, Manoj Bajpayee, Divya Dutta, Anuparm Kher, Jimmy Sheirgill, Rajesh Sharma, Mukesh Bhatt, Deepraj Rana. Crime drama PG 8902985210332 Viacom subtitled widescreen NSTC. Based on true, yet unreported cases of fake raids that took place in India in the 80s. It has been years since I watched an Indian film. CBI agents are interviewing a young lady in the opening scene. Very different to what I remember of Bollywood. I think the songs are still there. Directed by Neeraj Pandey. There are odd uses of English words in the script which seems daft. Set in Dehli. Camera and cinematography are given an old school look. Two of the actors I watched a few of their films. Worth seeing Mohra. CBI are there to tackle corruption. Intense music. I'd bought this from the library for my mum. It's available now. Abit of slapping. P.K Sharma is the boss I assume. AK looks good. If you like Hustle, Ocean's Eleven then this might be for you. Some humour and twists.


Big Hero 6. A Disney animation. Cast: Ryan Potter, Scott Adsit, Daniel Henney, Damon Wayans JR, Jamie Chung, TJ Miller, Genesis Rodriguez, Maya Rudolph, James Cromwell, Alan Tudyk.
Set in San Fransokyo in the future. Has a lot of Asian influence. Hiro is a teenage boy living with his big brother and hot aunt Cass. I assumed they are mixed race. Where Frozen was aimed at girls and the bond between sisters, this is for boys. About brotherhood. There is a lot of comedy. Impressive special effects. I like the robot convention and Baymax the nurse robot. The music is cool. The DVD that I borrowed from the library is skipping. It stops at the warehouse scene. It's from the creators of Wreck It Ralph. PG cert. 8717418450885 2014. There are other interesting characters in this film. Worth checking out. Award winning short Feast is the bonus feature. I always take a look at the reviews and discussion forums after having seen the film. You are guaranteed a good price on Amazon. If you like previous Disney works, Anime/Manga and Marvel films then I recommend this to you.
WILD starring Reece Witherspoon. You might also like The Way, Tracks, The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty. From the director of Dallas Buyers Club. Cert 15, 20th Century Fox 2014, 5039036072632. Based on a true story, book by Cheryl Strayed. A woman makes a decision to embark on a trek across the Pacific Crest Trail. It's a journey of discovery. A drama. There are some special features. I quite like the song playing during the DVD menu. Laura Dern also stars. There was a nice glimpse of nudity. Some flashback scenes are edited together with the journey Cheryl makes. It's a physically demanding role. Some interesting scenery. The writing is small. The sounds are blended together especially the speeches that Cheryl makes. Reese was in Cruel Intentions, Walk The Line and Devil's Knot which were excellent films. Wasn't sure when or how the film would end. The soundtrack is good. Reece is also a producer.
The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty
Starring Ben Stiller, Kristen Wiig, Shirley McClane, Adam Scott, Kathryn Hahn, Sean Penn. Directed by Stiller. Cert PG, drama. 2013 20th Century Fox. Walter is sat at his desk going over his finances. He has a love interest Cheryl. It's one of those character based slow moving films. Sort of like About Schmidt, Everything Must Go, Up In The Air. He was having a strange conversation with a man from Eharmony. There are fantasy sequences. He is an ordinary man with a wild imagination. His loud actress sister turns up at his workplace to wish him a happy birthday. Tower Heist is another good film of Ben's. Ted Hendricks is the MD of a company that's just acquired Walter's firm (Life Magazine). The scenes between fantasy and reality are blurred/edited together. There is some writing on the wall "To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, to draw closer, to find each other and to feel. That is the Purpose of LIFE." There are people that might connect with Walter. The solitary man, the underdog. You get some strange characters. Sean is a photographer that lives the quiet life. walter is in search of him. The special effects are good. Stunning cinematography. I like the soundtrack. A good film
