 Great (British) movie, 2010-03-09
Fantastic acting, totally believable characters and a brilliant recreation of early 60s London (I know, I was there, at school, pretending to be French).Funny,but with some very poignant moments, - the scene when her dad commiserates with a tearful Jenny through her closed bedroom door is worth the price of the DVD alone.The film reached me on many levels, and I don't hesitate to recommend it. Keep a hanky nearby.

At a time when too many animated films consist of anthropomorphized animals cracking sitcom one-liners and flatulence jokes, the warmth, originality, humor, and unflagging imagination of Up feel as welcome as rain in a desert. Carl Fredericksen (voice by Ed Asner) ranks among the most unlikely heroes in recent animation history. A 78-year-old curmudgeon, he enjoyed his modest life as a balloon seller because he shared it with his adventurous wife Ellie (Ellie Docter). But she died, leaving him with memories and the awareness that they never made their dream journey to Paradise Falls in South America. When well-meaning officials consign Carl to Shady Oaks Retirement Home, he rigs thousands of helium balloons to his house and floats to South America. The journey's scarcely begun when he discovers a stowaway: Russell (Jordan Nagai), a chubby, maladroit Wilderness Explorer Scout who's out to earn his Elderly Assistance Badge. In the tropical jungle, Carl and Russell find more than they bargained for: Charles Muntz (Christopher Plummer), a crazed explorer whose newsreels once inspired Carl and Ellie; Kevin, an exotic bird with a weakness for chocolate; and Dug (Bob Peterson), a...
Amazing animation, 2010-03-10
Possibly the best film of 2009 for me. Went with the children and was utterly moved by the opening scenes and amazed at how they had managed to have that effect on me.
Moving, exciting, funny, sad, this has it all.
Brilliant.

Excellent Watson!, 2010-03-02
What a great film this is! I was hugely surprised at how good it is when I first saw it. I have always loved Sherlock Holmes and was unsure whether this would be true to the classics.
Well, as far as I am concerned, this IS the classic Holmes movie. I loved the way the relationship with Watson was portrayed, and the Victorian London imagery was a pleasure to behold. The story unfolds with magnificant charm, as mysteries unravel before our eyes, and seemingly innocuous observations become crucial to the game. There is plenty of action, some of which is portrayed almost in bullet time, with Holmes' thought processes being narrated before the actual event. It works really well.
I can't really say more without giving away spoilers. And I hate spoilers.
There must be more Holmes films made with this new cast. Not to do so would be a crime.
Incidently if you are a fan of the TV series House, you may watch this movie and see some similarities between House - Wilson and Holmes - Watson. As House was based on Holmes this is hardly a surprise!

Michael Jackson
It's hard not to watch This Is It without feeling a mixture of sorrow and elation. When he passed away in the summer of 2009, Michael Jackson was in the midst of rehearsals for his final tour, an ambitious 50-date engagement. In editing 120 hours of rehearsal footage together, Jackson producer Kenny Ortega proves that it would've been an event for the ages. Michael performs material that spans his career, from a Motown medley to multi-platinum hits from Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad. Though he hadn't toured in 10 years, it becomes instantly apparent, despite rumours to the contrary, that Jackson was still in full possession of that unmistakable voice--high-pitched whoops and all--and that he still had the gravity-defying moves of a man half his age. Jackson and Ortega also collaborated on some real showstoppers, such as a graveyard-set "Thriller"; an imposing "They Don't Care About Us," in which several dancers appear to morph into thousands; and a film noir sequence in which the singer slides in and out of Gilda and other black-and-white classics, singing "Smooth Criminal" all the while. Not everything works, like the Jackson 5 numbers, in whi...
this IS it, 2010-03-03
I thought twice about going to see this at the cinema because his early death did shock me but I'm glad I did.The concerts would have been legendary had Michael lived to perform them.This film goes behind the scenes and shows a true entertainer at work.This Is It IS it not a film or documentary but enough to keep the dream alive!I bought the 2 disc version and I loved every minute of it.If you buy this(I urge you to)get one of his Concert DVDs and it'll tell that we will never see another musical entertainer again-but memories live forever.

Director:
Wes Anderson
The visually ravishing animated movie Fantastic Mr. Fox follows a fox, voiced by George Clooney and dressed in a natty brown corduroy suit, as he cheerfully and recklessly takes his thieving ways a little too far and brings down the wrath of some sour-faced poultry farmers on his family and friends. Based on a book by children's author Roald Dahl (who wrote Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and James and the Giant Peach), the movie is the work of Wes Anderson (writer-director of Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums), who expanded and elaborated on the original story; the combination is inspired. Anderson's sensibility--his fondness for meticulous compositions, coordinated colors, and narrative filigree--can sometimes seem finicky and stiff in live-action movies, but it's exquisitely suited to the painstaking art of stop-motion animation. Every corner of the screen crackles with visual invention and whimsical humor. The top-notch vocal cast (which also features Meryl Streep, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Michael Gambon, Owen Wilson, and others) create vivid personalities that perfectly mesh with the movie's lush colors and luscious textures. Fant...
underrated, 2010-03-08
this film is amazing and up there with the great films of 2009 (in the loop, synecdoche new york, where the wild things are etc...). anyone familiar with wes anderson will recognize his style instantly, and it lends itself perfectly to this traditionally made take on roald dahl's classic novel. i wouldn't say it's a kids film. the script is quite adult in it's underlying messages, only substituting any swear words with the word 'cuss', which is a bit weird at first, and the dialogue is absolute wes anderson genius, voiced brilliantly by bill murray and jason schwartzman in particular.
it looks beautiful. it could easily have been made 50 years ago and would still look exactly like this. just goes to prove theres no need for disney 3d for a film look special, and this looks more special than anything else out there.
everything about it is awesome!
ive never written a review before but i just couldn't bear to see this films average brought down by unappreciative philistines. it makes me really sad that it seems a lot of people just don't get it. their loss.

Cute romantic drama, 2010-03-07
I enjoyed watching this movie, and the end almost made me cry. A really beautiful, romantic drama. I would recommend watching it for all women (or men, who like romantic dramas)
I have not read the book before watching the movie, but i understood everything, i think the plot is clear.
About the bluray dics: i was very disappointed by what it had to offer. When you insert the disc, you have to watch three trailers, lasting over ten minutes. Then there is no menu, the film starts playing straight away. Later i was able to find a menu of some sort, but there is no BD LIVE option and no extras menu. I'd expect more from a BRD!

Kathryn Bigelow
Rightly attracting major awards attention, The Hurt Locker is a supreme, tense and gripping piece of drama. And it grabs your attention from the stunning opening scene, which perfectly gets across the dangers faced by the specialist bomb disposal squad that we spend the rest of the film following. Chief among them is Jeremy Renner’s Sergeant William James, who is the focal point for much of The Hurt Locker. The film spends some time digging into his head and why he does what he does, and his approach doesn’t always leave him eye-to-eye with the rest of his squad. Renner, in surely a star-making performance, delivers a rounded, three-dimensional portrayal of a man you could easily write off as a maverick, and the film is significantly enriched as a result. But then with director Kathryn Bigelow behind the camera delivering her best film to date, The Hurt Locker excels still further. Her gritty, haunting visuals look superb in high definition too, evoking the down-to-earth shooting style Bigelow employs, and making the most of the assorted set-pieces she puts on film. It’s the sound that really gets you too, cleverly eating up the full breadth of a ...
