Inception Movie Review

The Matrix has nothing on the riveting mind bending story of Inception starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Tom Hardy, and Ken Wantabe. Directed by Christopher Nolan who also directed Batman: The Dark Knight. The movie features a "thief" by the name of Dom Cobb (Dicaprio) who is capable of extracting the most important information from people by going deep inside the subconscious mind during sleep. Dom Cobb a fugitive in the United States is given the opportunity to do "INCEPTION" on one of the most powerful tycoons in the world. The only way Mr.Cobb can return back safely to the Untied States is if he plants the idea into the Tycoon's head.

PROS: While not the best movie out there, Inception offers the view into a completely new idea of espionage. The movie length is 2 ad 1/2 hours but is able to trick to viewer into thinking it only lasted only 5 minutes. Inception, in terms of special effects, is no Transformers, Alice in Wonderland, or James Cameron's Avatar; but it doesn't need to be. This movie is a perfect example that it can still be an amazing flick without 3-D or caking on special effects. The plot itself is quite complex and will keep the viewer engrossed into the idea of going deep below subconscious mind. Actors wise, you can't go wrong here. I would love to see Leo in a different role and do think he's typecasted but he's amazing just the way he is.

CONS: I thoroughly enjoyed this piece of artwork, loved the script and the story, but I just wish the movie would have a twist that I already didn't expect. Throughout the movie I kept on guessing what was going to happen next, hoping to be wrong. Sadly, nothing happened that I did not already forsee.
I was also a bit disappointed at the end.

To conclude, this movie is the best flick of the summer hands down.

Ke$ha featuring Taio Cruz "Dirty Picture" Spoof Parody video

I worked so hard on this video, youtube had a problem with it because the song is not mine obviously but I think the song is so pathetic that I thought I'd create a parody music video for it. All of the characters are played by me :)

Best of Arnold Schwarzenegger

In case you haven't noticed, I'm a huge Arnold fanatic. I love every movie he's ever been in. His acting is unbelievable. He's able to transgend all sorts of roles going form an action figure to a comedian. His accent is what makes Arnie so funny.
I decided to post my favorite unique Arny quotes from my all time favorite movies.
Have fun and enjoy

Top 3 movies to see in July 2010

1. Avatar- The Last Airbender
Starring: Jackson Rathbone, Dev Patel, Nicola Peltz, and so many other anfimilar actors. Nothing wrong with not casting the "A" listers. By casting newbies, the movie is going to be much better anyway.

Synopsis from movie insider:
Air, Water, Earth, Fire. Four nations tied by destiny when the Fire Nation launches a brutal war against the others. A century has passed with no hope in sight to change the path of this destruction. Caught between combat and courage, Aang (Noah Ringer) discovers he is the lone Avatar with the power to manipulate all four elements. Aang teams with Katara (Nicola Peltz), a Waterbender, and her brother, Sokka (Jackson Rathbone), to restore balance to their war-torn world.

Release date: July 2.



2.Predators Starring:
Danny Trejo, Walton Gogglins, Adrien Brody, Alice Brag. Not sure how this movie will turn out, the synopsis bored me to death for sure. Neither am I sure about the cast. Will I go see it anyway? Yeah sure why not.

Synopsis from movieinsider: The film stars Adrien Brody as Royce, a mercenary who reluctantly leads a group of elite warriors who come to realize they've been brought together on an alien planet... as prey. With the exception of a disgraced physician, they are all cold-blooded killers – mercenaries, Yakuza, convicts, death squad members – human "predators" that are now being systemically hunted and eliminated by a new breed of alien Predators.

Release date: July 7th





3. Inception
Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen Page, Ken Watanabe.

Who isn't a big fan of Leo and the films he's been in. Has he ever let us down? Not me, heck the girl in me really enjoyed Titanic and Romeo and Juliet. This movie is going to rock our socks!

Synopsis from IMDB: Acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan directs an international cast in an original sci-fi actioner that travels around the globe and into the intimate and infinite world of dreams. Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb's rare ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him everything he has ever loved.

Shutter Island masterpiece

From previews, Shutter Island looks like a horror movie. Scary asylum, ghosts, freaky doctors. But the film is actually an interesting and intense psychological thriller. It's quite an interesting film that will keep the viewer engrossed from beginning to an end. Unfortunately, we can't help but wonder was this really directed by Martin Scorsese? We have all seen better Scorsese films out there. Remember the Departed? Don't get this review wrong, this was an outstanding piece of film, but it doesn't live up to Scorsese's other films.

The movie takes place in an asylum where two marshalls are investigating the disappearance of a psychotic inmate. The film was made in a way to make the audience feel as if they're also in a psychiatric ward. The effects were phenomenal, and we can't help but think that we might be developing schizophrenia as well.

If you would like to become psychotic for two hours, then this movie is for you.
4/5 stars.

2010 Oscar Winners predictions

Never been a big fan of Oscars myself, who gets nominated for those things anyway? But here is MY take on who is going to be this year's big winners...and losers.
Avatar of course, will grab most of the prizes. Following The Hurt Locker, and Precious.

Stretch Armstrong film starring Taylor Lautner

With the new technological cinematic advances, we can't help but wonder what will Hollywood think of doing next? A remake of Wolfman? Wait...that's already been done. What about a remake of the 1958 classic The Fly? Oh wait...it's already been done, twice. Oh surely nobody thought to remake of Alice in Wonderland. Wrong.

As if all of the remakes isn't enough, we have movies based on comics, novels, and even toy companies.



It is safe to assume that Hollywood has ultimately run out of ideas! Why? Because the hit star Taylor Lautner has just signed up with Universal Studios to play a part of Stretch Armstrong, a toy from Hasbro. The toy Stretch Armstrong was a very popular stretchy action figure in the 1970's. That's it, nothing else but an action figure. But before you cringe your face and say "RENTAL", you might want to reconsider. The film is going to contain a vast amount of special effects, 3-D animation, and the sexy Taylor Lautner himself. Let's face it, whether we like it or not this movie is going to be a box office success.

I just can't wait to see them make a movie about Barbies, Barbie get's kidnapped.

Or what about Furby? Tickle me Elmo? Pogs? Tamogochi?

A Stretch Armstrong commercial:

The Time Machine movie

Based on a novel by H.G. Wells, directed by Simon Wells. I wonder if there is any relationship to the author himself. If you are ever wondering whether to read the novel or watch a movie, do yourself a favor and just read the novel. The story in the movie deviate so much from the actually book that it was as if we are watching a completely new story.

By the end of the movie, I feel as if we didn't learn anything from the story iteslf: A professor is in love, his girl gets killed during his proposal to her. He travels back through time to save her, but she dies again. The professor gets upset and travels into the future. I think the plot is missing some important substance, like what the viewer should learn by the end of the movie.

Special effects were stunning, but other than that this movie is trash.
