THE FAMILY GUY MOVIE NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE


HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE THE FAMILY GUY MOVIE FROM IMDB


  • The major sub-plot circles around the youngest Griffin, Stewie, who has a near-death experience at a pool when a lifeguard chair falls on him, but he survives. After having a vision of being in Hell, he decides to change his ways, but this doesn't last long. While watching television, he and Brian spot a man that looks like Stewie. Brian is convinced that he is Stewie's real father, until Stewie learns that the man is actually himself as an adult, taking a vacation from his own time period. Baby Stewie visits thirty years later to discover that his adult self, going by the name Stu, is a single blue-collar middle-aged virgin working at a Circuit City-type store. Meanwhile, Peter and Lois are trying to teach their two older kids, Meg and Chris, to date. In the future, Chris, who hasn't changed much, is working as a cop and is married to a foul-mouthed hustler named Vanessa. Meg is now called Ron, since she had a sex-change after college.

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE THE FAMILY GUY MOVIE FROM DVDTALK


The Movie:

  • Out of the small animation boom that happened a couple of years ago (see also "Futurama", "Clerks", "Dilbert" and a couple of WB animated shows I can't remember the names of) came "Family Guy", one of the most hilarious and controversial shows that Fox has aired. A mixture of "The Simpsons" and the darkest parts of "Married With Children", the TV-MA show seemed to take pride in pushing the limits and seeking out as many targets in current society to goof on as possible. The show developed a cult audience that followed it despite Fox's frequent shifts in the show's timeslot.
  • For those unfamiliar with the show, it focuses on the Griffin family, residents of Quahog, Rhode Island. Peter (creator Seth MacFarlane) is the heavy-drinking father who works in a toy factory, Lois (Alex Borstein of "Mad TV") is the calm leader, Meg (Mila Kunis of "That 70's Show" and Lacey Chabert for the earlier episodes) is the insecure daughter, Chris (Seth Green) the chubby and dim-witted son, Brian (MacFarlane) is the alcoholic dog who talks and Stewie (creator Seth MacFarlane earned an Emmy for his voice work on the character) is the diabolical baby who is bent on world domination.
  • The show's cult following and success on DVD had Fox reconsidering the show's cancellation, bringing it back for a new season (one episode's parody of A-HA's "Take On Me" video is one of the funniest things I've seen in ages) and this feature-length flick, which is essentially a lengthy episode of the show (the movie will be broken up into three episodes and broadcast on TV.)

You can check in, but you can't check out!!! Written by Anonymous

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE VACANCY FROM DVDTALK

There's something to be said about efficiency, especially in a spooky suspense picture. There's no berry sweeter than a chiller that doesn't allow itself to be swallowed by excess or indulgence. "Vacancy" is a furious get-in-and-get-out viewing experience, and it's a humdinger of a thrill ride.

David and Amy Fox (Luke Wilson and Kate Beckinsale) are an unhappy couple taking a road trip together before they finalize their divorce plans. When their car breaks down on a secluded country road, the couple takes up residence at the Pinewood Motel, run by the unnerving Mason (Frank Whaley). Once settled in their ramshackle room, David and Amy determine their car troubles were no accident, and this ominous motel room might cost them their lives.

Director Nimrod Antal made quite a splash on the international cinema scene years back with the brooding "Kontroll." A stylish thriller set in the Hungarian subway system, Antal showed imagination and ease with unsettling images. "Vacancy" ushers Antal into the Hollywood system and either through luck or talent (I'm betting on the latter), he's ducked under many of the traps laid for thriller filmmakers to create a picture that's heavy on frightening might and menace, and unsettlingly light on stupidity.

EUROTRIP NOW AVAILABLE

EUROTRIP NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE EUROTRIP FROM IMDB.


When Scotty's German online pen pal suggests they meet, he initially freaks out. But then he discovers that she's gorgeous, and heads out with three friends after graduation to meet her. As they travel across Europe, the four friends have comical misadventures. Written by lcheala@imdb.com

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE EUROTRIP FROM DVDTALK

"From the producers of Road Trip and Old School!" I guess that plays better than "From the writers of The Cat in the Hat!" Don't let that taint your perception of Eurotrip, though. The movie comes courtesy of Seinfeld scribes David Mandel, Alec Berg, and Jeff Schaffer, and although their screenplay doesn't boast the level of wit that propelled that TV series to the top of the ratings, it's one of the funnier teen comedies from the past couple of years.Eurotrip begins with Scotty (Scott Mechlowicz) getting dumped at graduation by his girlfriend Fiona (Smallville's Kristen Kreuk). He's consoled by a longtime German pen pal who suggests hooking up with him in the U.S., and Scotty not being up for rape and evisceration at the hand of some dude off the Internet, he drunkenly sends an e-mail telling him off. Scotty groggily wakes up the next morning and realizes that "he" isn't a "he", but a stunning blonde bombshell. Unable to send Mieke an apology message or to dig up her phone number, Scott, spurred on by his best friend Cooper (Jacob Pitts), decides to make a not-so-predictable trip to Berlin to tell her how he feels in person. Without enough cash to head directly to Germany, they land in London instead, meeting up with their twin pals Jamie and Jenny (Travis Wester and Michelle Trachtenberg) as they trek across the continent. Of course, they stop and see the sights along the way, including a visit to a nude beach in France, wolfing down brownies in Amsterdam, hitting the red light district, and taking a tour of the Vatican, none of which go quite the way they expect.

HERE ARE THE SPOILERS FROM SPOILERFIX.COM

Episode 7.06: Lara
Airdate: November 1, 2007

  • 10/17 - Zor-El is being played by Christopher Heyerdahl. Source: KryptonSite
  • 10/14 - Clark learns Kara is in Washington searching for the crystal. Kara is captured after she breaks into the lab and sedated with a kryptonite-infused truth serum. The serum causes her to relive a prior trip to Earth when she followed Clark's biological mother, Lara (guest star Helen Slater), to the Kent farm. Clark arrives in time to save her but, after searing the machine with heat vision, he also falls victim to the serum and sees what Kara sees: his mother. Kristin Kreuk, Michael Rosenbaum, Allison Mack, Erica Durance, Aaron Ashmore and John Glover also star. Source: The CW
  • 09/02 - The role of Zor-El might be played by Kevin Sorbo of Hercules: The Legendary Journey's fame, though this has not yet been confirmed. A red and blue blur (Kara) is reported to be seen over the Washington, D.C. skyline, though before you get excited, she isn't there to see Martha Kent. Kara is kidnapped by a government agent who has realized the connection between her and her crashed ship. Chloe discovers a secret that Lana is keeping from Clark. Source: KryptonSite
  • 08/17 - Some government agents have an aquamarine crystal in their possession. The crystal came from Kara's ship. While they are studying it, an intrigued Lex enters the lab. Roles now being cast for the episode include a Hallwell Guard, Lead Tech, Manager, and Kevin. No title for this episode is known at this time. Erica Durance (Lois) does not appear in this episode. We'll also see Kara's father, Zor-El, in this episode. Source: KryptonSite
  • 08/06 - Former Supergirl star Helen Slater will appear in an episode of The CW's Smallville next season, Variety reported. Slater is set to guest star in the sixth episode of the season as the aunt of the show's Supergirl, played by Laura Vandervoort. Source: Sci Fi Wire [Note: It could mean that she'll play Clark's birth mother, Lara.]

Episode 7.07: Wrath
Airdate: November 8, 2007

  • new 10/29 - Kryptonite and high voltage mix during a lightning storm, causing Lana to absorb Clark's powers. Using her newfound super powers, she breaks into Lex's safe and steals incriminating evidence which she then delivers to Lois and Grant, demanding they run a story exposing Lex's secrets. After Grant refuses to use stolen material, Lana decides to take care of Lex herself. Clark tries to stop Lana from killing Lex and a super battle ensues between the two. Allison Mack, Erica Durance, Aaron Ashmore and John Glover also star. Source: The CW
  • 09/12 - Thanks to an accident, Lana has Clark's powers! Clark learns what Lana has been hiding from him. Lana behaves a bit recklessly with this power and her behavior disturbs both Lex and Clark. The power-transference inspires a mention of Eric Summers, though sadly, Jimmy's not around to hear about his lookalike, as Aaron Ashmore is not in this episode. Don't expect Kara to save the day in this one, either... Laura Vandervoort is also not in this episode. Source: KryptonSite

Episode 7.08: Blue
Airdate: November 15, 2007

  • new 10/29 - Clark hears the voice of his biological mother, Lara (guest star Helen Slater), calling for help from Kara's crystal and decides to release her, despite Jor-El's warnings. Lara and Clark reunite and she gives him Jor-El's ring, which contains blue kryptonite. As Clark puts it on, he realizes Zor-El (guest star Christopher Heyerdahl) manipulated the whole thing and that blue kryptonite strips him of his powers, enabling Zor-El to take control of the Fortress of Solitude. Meanwhile, Chloe and Lex each discover Lois and Grant have been seeing each other and warn them to stop. Kristin Kreuk, Aaron Ashmore and John Glover also star. Source: The CW
  • 09/30 - One-time Supergirl Helen Slater returns for her second appearance as Lara in this episode. Source: KryptonSite
  • 09/19 - One of the high-profile guest stars that has already been announced for Season Seven makes a return appearance in this episode. Clark encounters a new color of kryptonite in this episode. Source: KryptonSite

Episode 7.09: Gemini
Airdate: December 13, 2007

  • 10/14 - Chloe and Jimmy are stuck on an elevator with a bomb, and Jimmy really doesn't understand why Chloe uses her one phone call to contact Clark. The "Gemini" in this title refers to a new experiment Lex is working on, much like Project: Ares and Project: Mercury before it. This episode has enough twists, turns, and surprises, you'd swear it was a season finale. Laura Vandervoort (Kara) does not appear in this episode. Source: KryptonSite
  • 09/30 - "Gemini" is not so much of a holiday episode per se, though story elements pertaining to the holidays do occur this time around. It's a backgound part of the story kind of like how the holidays fit in to the first Die Hard or Lethal Weapon movies. There are some very big revelations in this episode, including the return of a foe from the past. (No, not Brainiac - he's coming later.) Look for some changes for at least one of Smallville's Season 7 couples in this one. (For those of you keeping track at home, those couples include Clark/Lana, Lois/Grant, Chloe/Jimmy, and Jimmy/Kara.) Source: KryptonSite
  • 09/12 - No details on this one, but apparently the CW has announced that the December 13 episodes of Smallville and Supernatural will be holiday-themed. Source: KryptonSite

Episode 7.10: Persona
Airdate: January 2008

  • 10/14 - Clark is so happy about his relationship with Lana that he tells her he feels like he could fly. James Marsters returns as Milton Fine/Brainiac in this episode. (That is, unless he appears sooner than that...) Lex has a major new business venture. There is another Kryptonian hidden somewhere on Earth, posing as a human as their alien nature has been taken away. Something like Professor Yana on Doctor Who, it sounds like. Source: KryptonSite

Episode 7.11: Title Unknown
Airdate: January 2008

  • 10/14 - Executive producer Al Gough reveals: You will see Chloe in quasi-Watchtower mode around Episode 11. You'll discover that she is still doing odd jobs for Oliver and the gang on the side. Source: TV Guide Online

General Spoilers:

  • 10/17 - Executive producer Al Gough reveals: [Clark will not join the Daily Planet staff this season.] Eventually [Lois and Kara] will [become friends]; she is, after all, Clark's cousin, and Lois has a soft spot for the Kents. [Clark should start to develop feelings for Lois near the end of the season.] Source: TV Guide Online
  • 10/17 - There'll be a major November-sweeps showdown in the Fortress of Solitude that involves Clark, Kara and two Kryptonians to be named later. Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide
  • 10/14 - Executive producer Al Gough reveals: We are sticking with [the "No Tights, No Flights"] policy as far as Clark is concerned. (Obviously Bizarro can fly as well as Kara.) But following up on what Chloe said about his lack of flying in the season premiere ("Clark, you need to get on that"), Kara will be giving him "flying lessons" later in the season. Although with Clark, they end up being more like "falling lessons." [...] You'll see Martian Manhunter, Supergirl, Bizarro, and the return of Brainiac and the Green Arrow... as well as a future hero to be named later! [...] [There will be a major character who will at least start on Lex's side.] There may also be someone on the show who is currently on Lex's side and we don't know it yet. [...] Clark's journey this season revolves around his struggle between his Kryptonian heritage and his earthly upbringing, and dealing with his cousin - which ain't easy! Kara will give him an insight into his family (which is seriously screwed up) and his birth planet (which went boom, so there was something seriously screwed up there as well). He will grapple with his past and his future. And now that Lana is back, will he finally realize that this relationship, no matter how hard he tries, is ultimately doomed? Stay tuned. Source: TV Guide Online
  • 10/14 - While the new editor in chief of the Daily Planet seems like the picture of perfection, you might want to think again. There's something dark behind those pearly whites. Source: Kristin on E!Online
  • 10/14 - Let's just say that two words will leave [the new editor]'s jaw on the floor: Lana's resurrection. Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide
  • 09/26 - Producer Al Gough [revealed that] "Lois is going to get a job at the 'Planet,' which puts her in contention with Chloe." Gough also spilled some super-scoop on this season's Clana reunion: "She knows the secret, all the cards are on the table, so we're going to play their relationship honestly. But now that she's been married to Lex and that relationship has scarred her, the question becomes, 'What sort of secrets is she bringing to the relationship?' You will definitely see some reversals. You'll definitely see a darker Lana." Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide
  • 09/26 - When Lana returns to Smallville, she will be making the Kent farm her permanent residence. Look for some good Clana kissing soon after Clark finds out Lana is alive. Reliable insiders tell me-and the CW confirms-that James Marsters is returning for four episodes of the superseries during the new season. We last saw Marsters's character, Dr. Milton Fine (aka Brainiac), in Smallville's fifth season finale. While it's unclear exactly how James is returning, I can tell you he's reprising the exact same character, he's returning to set very soon and his episodes begin airing in January. Source: Kristin on E!Online
  • 08/22 - [Miles] Millar stated in no uncertain terms that Lana would be back, and would, for the first time, take a shot at an actual relation with the young man of steel. [...] Aside from the Lana revelations, Millar made reference to the return of a mysterious and deadly villain but only teased the identity. Source: BuddyTV
  • 08/17 - Kristin Kreuk has signed on for the upcoming season and Lana will definitely be back. Lana's salvation involves cloning. Source: Kristin on E!Online
  • 08/14 - Kara, aka Supergirl, and the Martian Manhunter are both aware of each other from the past and they, to say the least, are anything but friends. Sources tell me there is a showdown between Kara and someone very close to Clark's heart. Source: Kristin on E!Online [Note: In another question, it is implied that the "someone very close to Clark's heart" is Lana.]
  • 07/29 - New from the Voices From Krypton Podcast: There will be a reference made to the other "Kara" (from "Covenant") and there might be another confrontation or conversation with Jor-El on the way. Kara will be more of a presence than Green Arrow, and she'll be in at least half of the episodes of the new season. If there is a Season 8, she'll still be around. Look for tension and conflict between Lex and Lois. Clark MAY fly in Season Eight. Source: KryptonSite
  • 07/29 - Phil Morris (aka Martian Manhunter) [...] will be back next season along with old and new Justice League members. Green Arrow will be back next season, but not until mid-season. The first of next season's arcs belongs to Supergirl and Bizarro Clark. Source: TV Squad
  • 07/29 - Supergirl will give Clark flying lessons. Lois will get more and more involved at The Daily Planet. Source: BuddyTV
  • 07/23 - The latest edition of TV Guide reveals: Watching over Kara is "another step in Clark's journey," creator Al Gough told TV Guide. "He's no longer in child mode. He's given responsibility over someone else." Kara has strength, speed, and X-ray vision... plus she can fly. "He's got to keep her out of trouble and make sure she doesn't use the abilities for the wrong reason," Gough says. Also in danger in Season 7? Lois. "They're still far from their romantic destiny, but you'll sense that they care for each other," Gough says. He says that Lois will become more of "the Lois Lane we know from the Superman mythology" as she continues to develop as a reporter, landing at the Daily Planet. The new character of Grant Gabriel, Lois's Daily Planet editor, will have more than a professional interest in Lois. Armed with the Planet's journalistic credibility, expect Lois to take on the Luthors. "This of course puts her in various stages of danger, much to Clark's chagrin," Gough says. "After all, hell hath no fury like a bald billionaire scorned." The Justice League may show up again, but Gough says that it will not be happening in the first eight or nine episodes of the season, and that they will most likely show up individually, rather than as a group. "And hopefully we can introduce some new members," Gough says. Source: KryptonSite
  • 07/04 - Kristin Kreuk is still in contract negotiations with the show. It is possible she does not come back. Source: SpoilerFix BuddyTV Spoilers Chat
  • 05/24 - On Michael Ausiello's latest Vodcast, John Glover (Lionel Luthor) spilled the beans that Martha Kent is definitely moving to Washington and therefore, Annette O'Toole would not be back next season as a series regular. Ausiello confirmed that she will probably pop up occasionally as a guest appearance. Also, according to Erica Durance (Lois Lane), Chloe is not really dead. That has NOT been confirmed. Source: The Ausiello Report
  • 02/14 - Michael Rosenbaum reveals: I think next season will definitely happen. [...] Next year will be my last year. I had a great run. I loved it, but that will be it for me. I think other people have longer contracts. I’m not going to say who, but I know that next year is the last for me. So, it will be very sad when it happens, but all good things must come to an end. Source: Kristin on E!Online
  • 02/10 - Alfred Gough reveals: Martian Manhunter will be an ongoing presence this season and perhaps into next. There are a finite number of Zoners, or so we are led to believe. But who knows, there may be more! Source: TV Guide Online
  • 12/07/2006 - Alfred Gough reveals: [Jonathan Kent will probably not appear again. If we get a 7th season,] we'll just keep moving [Clark's] journey towards Superman further and introduce other DC comic characters. Source: BuddyTV

SHREK THE THIRD NOW AVAILABLE

SHREK THE THIRD AVAILABLE ONLINE


HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE SHREK THE THIRD FROM IMDB


When Fiona's father and King of Far Far Away passes away, the clumsy Shrek becomes the immediate successor of the throne. However, Shrek decides to find the legitimate heir Artie in a distant kingdom with his friends Donkey and Puss in Boots to be able return to his beloved house in the swamp with the pregnant Fiona. Meanwhile, the envious and ambitious Prince Charming joins the villains of the fairytales plotting a coup d'état to become the new king. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil



HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE SHREK THE THIRD FROM DVDTALK

  • The cast of characters continues to expand in "Shrek the Third," the latest rowdy adventure in the ever-amusing fairy-tale-spoof series. A petulant young King Arthur and a baffled old Merlin are among the new arrivals, while princesses such as Snow White and Rapunzel -- previously referred to but not given much screen time -- get a chance to demonstrate their unique skill sets. (We knew Snow White could summon birds with her voice. Who knew she could make them attack by singing Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song"?)
  • This outing looks toward the next generation, as Far Far Away's King Harold (John Cleese) is dying, and he's named Shrek (Mike Myers) as his heir. The ogre doesn't want the gig, though, and defers to Plan B: a royal nephew named Arthur (Justin Timberlake) who is presently a gawky teenager who gets picked on even by the Dungeons & Dragons geeks. (Shouldn't there be a joke about playing Dungeons & Dragons at a time when there really ARE dungeons and dragons?) Artie doesn't want the job either, once he learns how hard it is, so Shrek has to persuade him, lest he be saddled with it himself.
  • Meanwhile, Shrek's beloved wife Fiona (Cameron Diaz) is pregnant, sending more ripples of panic into Shrek's green heart. Ogres aren't known for their nurturing, fatherly attributes, after all. Sure, Donkey (Eddie Murphy) and the dragon have spawned a litter of happy, if horrifyingly freakish, donkey-dragon hybrids. But is there any hope for a pair of swamp-dwelling ogres?
  • Meanwhile (there is a lot of meanwhile in this movie), Prince Charming (Rupert Everett) is enduring nightly humiliation playing himself in a bad dinner theater play. Determined to seize the throne once and for all, he rallies all the other fictional losers -- Captain Hook, Snow White's wicked queen, various witches, and so forth -- and stages a coup while Shrek, Donkey, and Puss-in-Boots (Antonio Banderas) are off looking for Arthur. Fiona, Queen Lillian (Julie Andrews), and their bickering princess girlfriends are tossed into prison.

Written by Anonymous


HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE DRAGON WARS FROM DVDTALK


  • South Korea is a land of unparalleled beauty and rich cinematic language. Now why would they want to screw all that up by making an extraordinarily dreadful fantasy picture to compete in the worldwide film market? The short answer is money (perhaps the only answer), but the reality is that America does just fine making cringingly terrible special-effect extravaganzas, so back off, South Korea!
  • "Dragon Wars" (or "D-War" for those with less imagination) is a 70-million-dollar action spectacle in the vein of "Lord of the Rings" or, more accurately, a monster-budgeted episode of "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers." The film takes the viewer into the world of poor CGI and no-talent actors, hoping to weave a tale of mayhem so noisy, crowds won't notice the whole shebang barely makes sense, approaches continuity as a mere suggestion, and features nothing in the way of recognizable excitement.
  • Certainly kids will take to "D-War" with a more open mind. After all, the film is intended for those with an unlimited reservoir of big-screen forgiveness. Only a child could ignore the casting of vacant pretty boy Jason Behr in the lead role (my word, is that guy one horrible actor), keep up with a script that's pretty liberal passing around head-spinning mythical nuggets, and follow a plot that frankly I found completely baffling. Something about gigantic snake-like "Imoogis" and humdrum prophecies. Ah, who cares, really. It's all just used to eat away screentime before the titular battle heats up.
  • Now, when the dragons start to bust a move, "D-War" doesn't reach for epic intentions, just earsplitting chaos. Director Shim Hyung-rae piles on the explosions and crashing helicopters, futilely trying to out-Bay his American competition. Clearly the action would be far more effective and thrilling if "D-War" didn't suffer from a low-budget simplemindedness and muted visual ambition that usually mucks with Sci-Fi Channel movies ("D-War" will live a long life on a double bill with "Mansquito"). It's an Asian director trying to duplicate western nonsense, absent the crucial ego and glossy technical support afforded to the knuckleheads we have making movies here.
  • Watching the "Imoogis" wage their city-toppling campaign against man, spying Behr literally executing some "smell the fart" acting moves, and furiously trying to imagine what the hell "D-War" must've looked like in script form (assuming they had a script), I wasn't so much offended by the lack of quality of "D-War," just amazed that a filmmaker would put such effort into a losing proposition. Call it B-movie cheese or a perfect pre-teen matinee diversion, but one could never accuse "Dragon Wars" of possessing an ounce of legitimate fun.

THE KINGDOM NOW AVAILABLE

THE KINGDOM NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE THE KINGDOM FROM IMDB

When a terrorist bomb detonates inside a Western housing compound in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, an international incident is ignited. While diplomats slowly debate equations of territorialism, FBI Special Agent Ronald Fleury (Jamie Foxx) quickly assembles an elite team (Chris Cooper, Jennifer Garner, and Jason Bateman) and negotiates a secret five-day trip into Saudi Arabia to locate the madman behind the bombing. Upon landing in the desert kingdom, however, Fleury and his team discover Saudi authorities suspicious and unwelcoming of American interlopers into what they consider a local matter. Hamstrung by protocol-and with the clock ticking on their five days-the FBI agents find their expertise worthless without the trust of their Saudi counterparts, who want to locate the terrorist in their homeland on their own terms. Fleury's crew finds a like-minded partner in Saudi Colonel Al-Ghazi (Ashraf Barhoum), who helps them navigate royal politics and unlock the secrets of the crime scene and the workings of an extremist cell bent on further destruction. With these unlikely allies sharing a propulsive commitment to crack the case, the team is led to the killer's front door in a blistering do-or-die confrontation. Now in a fight for their own lives, strangers united by one mission won't stop until justice is found in The Kingdom. Written by Universal Pictures

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE THE KINGDOM FROM DVDTALK

Note to Hollywood filmmaking preachers: we know the "enemy" is just like us, and that we share the same hopes and fears...we get it! "The Kingdom" is a 70-million-dollar lesson in the obvious, costumed up as a brainless action film, but still preoccupied with teaching a master class in being grotesquely manipulative and shamefully transparent.

When a suicide bombing takes down an American community located in the heart of Saudi Arabia, a small FBI taskforce (Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman, and Chris Cooper), led by Ronald Fluery (Jamie Foxx), is sent in to investigate the remains of the blast site and hunt for the terrorist group responsible. Now inside the country, the freedoms Ronald and his team are accustomed to have been restricted by a new chain of command, forcing the elite squad to use their own tricks and methods of communication to locate the source of the hostility, putting their own lives in the line once enemies find Americans digging around foreign soil.

In several cringing ways, "Kingdom" covers the exact same ground as 1999's "Three Kings." Both films have a lust to be both a strident political statement and jingoistic action blockbuster, but I'm not convinced the mix should be allowed, or perhaps I haven't seen a filmmaker talented enough to pull off such a dichotomy. Here, the director is Peter Berg ("Very Bad Things," "The Rundown," "Friday Night Lights"), who has yet to meet a sickening camera quake or cheap audience-baiting tool he didn't like. Berg is a seasoned vet when it comes to "of the moment" movies, but that doesn't make him competent. It just makes him twitchy and chaotic.

"The Kingdom," however, doesn't offer much chaos for Berg to push around. If you read elsewhere that "Kingdom" is "non-stop action," you have my permission to slap that writer in the face. The picture is actually quite a sluggish production, playing like "CSI: Saudi Arabia," and taking its time trying to pack an elaborate sand castle of a plot containing political intrigue and procedural minutiae. Led by a subtle, refined performance from Jamie Foxx, "Kingdom" has moments of triumphant suspense and affable Team USA bonding, complete with Bateman as the clich�d wisecracking wuss.

Trust me when I write that you've seen this movie before. You've heard this dialogue. You've seen these performances. As a selection of commentary on Middle East politics and social graces, "Kingdom" is not offering anything novel, and what's here is barely of interest. Berg can tart up the film with nauseating shaky-cam work and orgasmic gunfire, but the only ingredient that's going to make the film as relevant and powerful as it is in Berg's head is innovation. "Kingdom" is woefully short-sheeted in that department.

THE BREAK-UP NOW AVAILBLE

THE BREAK-UP NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE THE BREAK-UP FROM IMDB


  • In Chicago, the art dealer Brooke Meyers feels not appreciated and neglected by her immature husband Gary Grobowski, who is partner of his two brothers in a tourism business, and decides to break-up with him to make Gary misses her. Gary misunderstands her true intention, both follows the wrong advices of family members and friends, beginning a war of sexes with no winner. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE THE BREAK-UP FROM DVDTALK


The Movie:
  • Starring the latest celebrity couple to be wholly and completely overexposed by the tabloid media, "The Break Up" opens with a scene that will amuse anyone from the South side of Chicago. Gary (Vince Vaughn) sits next to Johnny (Vaughn's BFF Jon Favreau) at Wrigley Field in Chicago. As the Cubs make it obvious on the field that they're not going to the Series in October, Johnny proudly stands up and displays his Sox jersey to those sitting behind them.
  • As Gary takes in the loss, he spots Brooke (Jennifer Aniston) sitting down the row. He verbally forces (as Vaughn is capable of) a hot dog down to her. She doesn't want one. He talks her into it. Despite the fact that she's there with someone, he literally gets in her way as she's trying to leave the game and verbally steamrolls her, telling her that, in fact, the guy that she's with isn't the right guy for her. Does he succeed? The montage of photos of the Aniston and Vaughn characters under the credits show that, yep, he did.
  • As we learn about the two, we find that they couldn't be more different. He's a tour company guide (and Vaughn's scenes on the bus are priceless; he'd make an ace guide if he ever gives up the whole acting thing), while she works at an elite art gallery. She cooks (Chicagoans will notice that Vaughn brings in a Treasure Island bag early on), cleans and notes how he doesn't listen to her or thank her. She hates his video games (one of the funniest scenes in the movie has Vaughn's character yelling at a little kid via an XBOX Live headset), as well. The movie is certainly one-sided, making Gary almost entirely to blame (although she's wrong for not liking video games - who doesn't like video games?) for the problems in the relationship.

30 DAYS OF NIGHT NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE 30 DAYS OF NIGHT FROM IMDB

This is the story of an isolated Alaskan town that is plunged into darkness for a month each year when the sun sinks below the horizon. As the last rays of light fade, the town is attacked by a bloodthirsty gang of vampires bent on an uninterrupted orgy of destruction. Only the small town's husband-and-wife Sheriff team stand between the survivors and certain destruction. Written by Risin' Outlaw

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE 30 DAYS OF NIGHT FROM DVDTALK

"30 Days of Night" has a marvelous premise, a reasonable cast, and a sublime location to play around with. But the producers just had to give the material to director David Slade, a hack filmmaker of the worst kind, who drowns any promise this nihilistic tale of frosty survival held by smothering the picture in excessive, pedestrian visual gymnastics.

In the remote town of Barrow, Alaska, the sun takes a vacation for 30 days every year, leaving the locals isolated from the rest of the world. During this particular permanent night, a group of vampires (led by Danny Houston) swarm the town, gobbling up the locals without fear of sunlight to hinder their efforts. With most of the community reduced to food for the bloodsuckers, it's up to Sheriff Eben (Josh Hartnett), his estranged wife Stella (Melissa George), and a small cluster of Barrow neighbors to survive the month while the vampires methodically stalk them.

Adapted from a well-received (and thoroughly franchised) graphic novel, "30 Days" is a concentrated horror stand-off; a survival tale with fantastical fringes, slicked with waves of blood and gore. The very concept of vampires let loose in a location that contains no sunlight to temper their hunger pains holds fantastic promise. However, "30 Days" as a movie is frustrating, more concerned with artifice than primal scream results.

I place the blame squarely on Slade's shoulders. His debut film, 2006's pedophile yawner "Hard Candy," introduced a director who holds no concept of suspense, only chaos. "30 Days" is another experiment in Slade's theory that tension is not something to nurture, it's something to detonate. After a chilly, epic introduction to the setting and the conflict, it doesn't take long for Slade to start digging into his bag of tricks once the vampire reign commences. A favorite of the director is clichéd open-shutter photography, executed by a cameraman who forgot to pop his seizer medication that day.

Every time a vampire moves, Slade's frame is hurled around, making the film impossible to comprehend at times. He pulled the same tired stunt in "Candy," and it's even more transparent in "30 Days." After nearly two solid hours of ocular abuse, it made me long for the John Carpenter glory years, where a filmmaker would trust his audience enough to allow them to search the details of the screen and encourage their fears, not bury them in noise and beat them into submission.

ELIZABETH THE GOLDEN AGE NOW AVAILABLE

ELIZABETH THE GOLDEN AGE NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE


HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE ELIZABETH THE GOLDEN AGE FROM IMDB


An exploration of the relationship between Elizabeth I (Blanchett) and the adventurer Sir Walter Raleigh (Owen).


HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE ELIZABETH THE GOLDEN AGE FROM DVDTALK

  • You don't want to mess with Elizabeth fans. I learned that the hard way. Loyal subjects of the 1998 costume drama, which put Cate Blanchett on everyone's map, are possessed of a fervent dedication you don't want to cross. Trust me. Having somehow spent years not seeing the film, only renting it this past summer in anticipation of the long-awaited sequel, I encountered the faithful regularly, and when I admitted my failing, they all looked at me with the sort of disgust reserved for the worst heretic. I often worried they would storm my apartment, tearing my Audrey Hepburn and Wong Kar-Wai posters from my walls and dumping my DVD collection in the nearest river.

  • I suspect director Shekhar Kapur had a righteous fear when he set out to make the second segment of his proposed trilogy. Elizabeth: The Golden Age had to be good or the fans would lynch the poor guy. I'm happy to say, Kapur succeeded in every way. So, if you're nervously pacing the room wondering if The Golden Age is the biggest mistitling in movie history, calm your nerves, sit down, and relax. There is reason to go on living.

  • Elizabeth: The Golden Age picks up a small distance into the Virgin Queen's reign. Blanchett reprises her role, returning with the commanding gait that the monarch had adopted at the end of the first picture, yet tempering it with the kind of confidence that only experience can instill. You can see why the actress made her director wait nearly ten years before she'd climb into the royal costume again. It required a different performer than the relative newcomer that so wowed us back in the day, as Elizabeth has become a completely different woman.

  • As it stands, the Protestant ruler is still in hot water with the papist powers back in Rome. Many believe Elizabeth's half-sister, the devoutly Catholic Mary Stuart (Samantha Morton), is the rightful heir to the throne, and Philip II of Spain (Jordi Molla) sees it as his divine mission to restore the proper Christian faith to this lost kingdom. Elizabeth remains staunch in all things. She won't revert back to the old ways, she won't yield to foreign powers, and she certainly won't take some simpering prince for her husband.

  • Yet, England is no paradise. Financially, they don't have the money they need, and Elizabeth's most trusted advisor, Sir Francis Walshingham, fears the country won't survive a clash with Spain. He'd rather position his Queen politically by finding her the most advantageous conjugal union. Walshingham is once again played by Geoffery Rush, who was marvelously conniving last time around. Here, like Blanchett, he takes his character forward in years. He has grown older, less sharp, and his insecurity leaves him brittle and vulnerable.

Written by vb

When an Egyptian terrorism suspect "disappears" on a flight from Africa to Washington DC, his American wife and a CIA analyst find themselves caught up in a struggle to secure his release from a secret detention facility somewhere outside the US. Written by Gavin Hood (director)




HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE RENDITION FROM DVDTALK


  • As a feature film about the evils of political torture, "Rendition" is crude and shrill. As a thriller, it's a complete snooze. It sounds unfair to nail a do-gooder film such as this to the wall, but rarely do you find a ripped-from-the-headlines motion picture as bloodless and pedestrian. My apologies to "The Kingdom."
  • On his way from South Africa to his Chicago home to see his wife (Reese Witherspoon) and child, engineer Anwar El-Ibrahimi (Omar Metwally) is detained by US (Jake Gyllenhaal) and North African (Yigal Naor) agents hunting for a connection to a recent terrorist bombing. Anwar is tortured without much success, while his concerned wife starts knocking on the doors of government officials (Peter Sarsgaard and Alan Arkin), leading to the mastermind of the detention: WASPy, southern-fried CIA head stooge Corrinne Whitman (Meryl Streep). Meanwhile, a terrorist group grows in power and radical might, ticking down the clock to when they will strike again.

  • It should be noted that if you plan to see "Rendition" for the acting efforts of Gyllenhaal, Witherspoon, or Streep, remember to bring a magazine with you to the cinema. It shouldn't count against "Rendition" that the A-list talents have glorified cameos in the final film (the bulk of the picture makes time with the terrorists), yet it's a part of a larger problem with the picture: too many characters running too many mindgames.

  • "Rendition" is director Gavin Hood's Hollywood-bred follow-up to his South African drama, "Tsotsi," and I would love to know what happened to the man's sense of self-respect. "Rendition" is a soulless sermon on wrongful imprisonment, torture, and the cyclical nature of terrorism. If you've read these elements in a movie description before, welcome to fall 2007, where every other film appears to be about the Middle East battle grounds, interchanging only the casts. Heavens, I never thought I'd be so excited to see "Saw IV."

WHY DID I GET MARRIED NOW AVAILABLE

WHY DID I GET MARRIED NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE


HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE WHY DID I GET MARRIED FROM IMDB



The big screen adaptation of Perry's stage play about the trials of marriage, and what happens to one family when a sexy young temptress arrives on the scene.

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE WHY DID I GET MARRIED FROM DVDTALK


  • "Why Did I Get Married?" is Tyler Perry's best screen effort to date, which is to say it's comfortably mediocre instead of criminally intolerable.
  • Four couples, Terry (Tyler Perry) and Diane (Sherry Leal), Patricia (Janet Jackson) and Gavin (Malik Yoba), Marcus (Michael Jai White) and Angela (Tasha Smith), and Mike (Richard T. Jones) and Shelia (Jill Scott), gather together every year for a vacation to clear their heads. Now in the snowy Colorado Mountains, the couples find this year to be their most explosive, with everyone's dirty laundry aired out over the course of the hellish week, ending friendships and marriages. With their lives now scattered, the couples do their best to revive their love, only to find they might be better off apart.
  • Last February's "Daddy's Little Girls" brought mogul/filmmaker Tyler Perry to his lowest point. Not only was the feature a cancerous, socially irresponsible catastrophe, it was greeted with his lowest box office grosses yet. Perhaps the diminished reception of "Girls" played a subconscious role in the creation of "Married," because this new film shows incredible growth on Perry's part as a storyteller and director.
  • Perry loves to play with stereotypes and melodrama. They are his preferred tools to fashion his string of plays, cinematic efforts, and recent television forays (the excretal "House of Payne"). "Married" is another slice of obvious to fit snugly in Perry's oeuvre, playing broadly to his core audience with an expected buffet of obnoxious characters and "Guiding Light" plotting. However, there's a spark to "Married" that's never revealed itself in the filmmaker's work before. Dare I call it maturation?

MICHAEL CLAYTON NOW AVAILABLE

MICHAEL CLAYTON NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE MICHAEL CLAYTON FROM IMDB

Michael Clayton (George Clooney) is an in-house "fixer" at one of the largest corporate law firms in New York. A former criminal prosecutor, Clayton takes care of Kenner, Bach & Ledeen's dirtiest work at the behest of the firm's co-founder Marty Bach (Sydney Pollack). Though burned out and hardly content with his job as a fixer, his divorce, a failed business venture and mounting debt have left Clayton inextricably tied to the firm. At U/North, meanwhile, the career of litigator Karen Crowder (Tilda Swinton) rests on the multi-million dollar settlement of a class action suit that Clayton's firm is leading to a seemingly successful conclusion. But when Kenner Bach's brilliant and guilt-ridden attorney Arthur Edens (Tom Wilkinson) sabotages the U/North case, Clayton faces the biggest challenge of his career and his life. Written by Warner Bros. Pictures

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE MICHAEL CLAYTON FROM DVDTALK



Now here's a picture perfect for those who bemoan the lack of quality coming out of Hollywood, or, at the very least, assume a dearth of intelligence. "Michael Clayton" is an assuredly dense, thematically sticky piece of thrillerdom, piloted by complicated psychological impulses, not convention. It's another stab by George Clooney to bring back a little old fashioned character ambiguity to the big screen, and it's his most successful effort yet.

Michael Clayton (Clooney) is a "janitor," a person brought in by his law firm to clean up messes that can't demand the time of a proper legal team. When a protracted lawsuit against a billion-dollar chemical corporation is tripped up by the mental instability of the primary attorney (Tim Wilkinson), Michael is called in to contain the fallout. Once inside the case, Michael's eyes are opened by a multitude of inconsistencies and damaging secrets, putting his own life in jeopardy as he investigates how far the deception leads.

For better (the "Bourne Identity" trilogy) or for worse ("Bait," "The Devil's Advocate") writer Tony Gilroy has survived the business long enough to earn his stars as a director. "Clayton" is an incredible debut for the screenwriter, pulling together a pointed, intelligent legal thriller that isn't quite a legal thriller at all. Gilroy has molded an impassion character study of morally queasy individuals, in a film that handles like a sleek suspense creation custom fitted for mass audiences with a supreme level of patience.


What's so admirable about "Clayton" is that it remains such a moody effort from start to finish. This is a dark film infested with lowlife characters, but Gilroy is infatuated with their choices when shoved up against a wall. The story has little time for heroes and villains, instead conveying the richness of uncertainty, where right and wrong buttress an instinctive hunger for survival. For Clayton and the lawyer characters that line the film (portrayed by Tilda Swinton and Sydney Pollack), justice is almost never a consideration. It's almost as though any proper edict seen to conclusion is only randomly uncovered by routine selfishness, not a sense of moral duty. Gilroy loves to live in these tight spaces, and that's where "Clayton" finds the juiciest bits of drama and legal interaction.

NEWS: JASON VOORHEES FROM FRIDAY THE 13TH WILL BE ON SUPERNATURAL THIS SEASON

JASON FROM FRIDAY THE 13TH WILL BE ON SUPERNATURAL THIS SEASON

JASON STARTED HIS CAREER AS A MURDER BY KILLING OFF ALL OF HIS COUNSELORS AND THEN TEENAGERS.














THEN HE WENT INTO SPACE AND FACED SOME MORE TEENS























NEXT HE WENT AFTER A LEGEND IN THE KILLING BUSINESS AND THAT IS FREDDY KRUGER IN FREDDY VS JASON.

















NOW HE IS GOING AFTER THE GOOD OLD BOYS FROM SUPERNATURAL IN THIS SEASON'S 10TH EPISODE.













HERE IS THE ARTICLE FOR YOU GUYS THAT EXPLAINS HOW JASON WILL BE MEETING THE WINCHESTERS IN A GOOD OLD FIGHT.

I'm not sure how many horror fans actually watch the show Supernatural but soon you will have a reason to at least catch one episode. I had always thought it was a show for 14 year old little girls to oogle over the guys. Kind of like a TV version of The Covenant.

In the new season the creators were granted an appearence by Jason Voorhees himself. Creator Eric Kripke tells the fanzine, "We have Jason from Friday the 13th, the character with the hockey mask. He shows up in episode 10. We have cleared the rights to actually use Jason. We have a twist on it so it is not really Jason out there but we have found an interesting way to bring him in so Sam and Dean fight Jason from Friday the 13th. In our world, that is a pretty cool guest star."

The way he puts it is a little odd. They have him but not really him. OK.. Well it should be interesting anyway before Platinum Dunes does there remake. This maybe the last time we see Jason with his established history intact.

  • In 1945, the Marines attack twelve thousand Japaneses protecting the twenty square kilometers of the sacred Iwo Jima island in a very violent battle. When they reach the Mount Suribachi and six soldiers raise their flag on the top, the picture become a symbol in a post Great Depression America. The government brings the three survivors to America to raise funds of war, bringing hope to desolated people, and making the three men heroes of war. However, the traumatized trio has difficulties to deal with the image build by their superiors, sharing the heroism with their mates. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
  • During WW2 the American Government's war chest was empty because the American people didn't have faith that they could win so they stopped buying war bonds. So a campaign was launched using the photo of the Flag Raising at Iwo Jima. Now the three surviving men in the picture, Doc Bradley, Rene Gagnon and Ira Hayes are brought back to the U.S. for the bond drive. But when they arrive they learn that the story the government released to the press is full inaccuracies and they have keep on saying the story even though it's not true. While Rene Gagnon has no trouble saying it, Doc Bradley and Ira Hayes are not comfortable with it. Written by rcs0411@yahoo.com
  • In February, 1945, one of the fiercest battles of the Pacific theater of World War II occurs on the tiny island of Iwo Jima. Thousands of Marines attack the stronghold maintained by thousands of Japanese, and the slaughter on both sides is horrific. Early in the battle, an American flag is raised atop the high point, Mount Suribachi, and a photograph of the raising becomes an American cause celebre. As a powerful inspiration to war-sick Americans, the photo becomes a symbol of the Allied cause. The three surviving flag raisers, Rene Gagnon, John Bradley, and Ira Hayes, are whisked back to civilization to help raise funds for the war effort. But the accolades for heroism heaped upon the three men are at odds with their own personal realizations that thousands of real heroes lie dead on Iwo Jima, and that their own contributions to the fight are only symbolic and not deserving of the singling out they are experiencing. Each of the three must come to terms with the honors, exploitation, and grief that they face simply for being in a photograph. Written by Jim Beaver {jumblejim@prodigy.net}

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS FROM DVDTALK

The Movie:
  • "Flags of Our Fathers" focuses on three men that took part in raising a flag that inspired a nation when it needed it most. Iwo Jima was a tactically important WWII battle near the end of the war...five marines and a navy corpsman raised the second American flag at the top of the island's mountain, after the first smaller one was taken down. A war photojournalist happened to catch the raising of the flag in one quick photograph, which started a huge chain of events. Back in the states, the photo was instantly recognized for its propaganda and campaign potential. "Flags of Our Fathers" focuses on the three men who remained alive after the picture was published. It's a story of war, love, and the struggle these three men go through in their lives with the weight of our nation on their shoulders.

  • Within a week of the photograph being taken, three out of the six flag raisers had been killed in action. John (Doc) Bradley (Ryan Phillippe), Rene Gagnon (Jesse Bradford), and Ira Hayes (Adam Beach)are immediately sent back to the states to raise money for the war effort. With the realization that they are home safe while their brothers are still fighting and being killed over on Iwo Jima, they are struggling with some serious guilt and flashbacks. They must attempt to come together and help each other bear the burden the photograph put on their shoulders.

  • The thing that I love about Clint Eastwood as a director is that he knows his stuff. He is not afraid to go above and beyond, just to show us something that might not be the biggest detail but is an important detail. His attention to every significant fact, no matter how small, is fantastic and the accuracy of the war is absolutely moving. Clint Eastwood creates an intense and compelling drama that motivates, informs, and draws us in for more.

  • My favorite part about "Flags of Our Fathers" is the absolute accuracy of the film. As my wife and I were watching we had Wikipedia.com pulled up and were reading the story of Iwo Jima and the flag raisers. This was by far the best way to watch the film since we could really understand each detail and event. After reading about Iwo Jima we were able to see exactly what was described on the page happen during "Flags of Our Fathers." It was interesting to begin to understand the intricacies of the events as well. For instance, the fact that there were two flag raisings could get confusing, because only the second became of any importance. And because the photograph didn't show the faces of the flag raisers, the identities of the individuals became an issue when one was misidentified. The film goes over everything with amazing precision and is definitely more compelling than those school history lessons.
