movie reviews 2011 so far part 2

Paul

if you like scifi and the work of pegg and frost you might like this, but i have a feeling its not for everyone
paul is a like rude and crude sometimes, but ends up showing he cares about others too. funny, fast paced after a slow start but overall good scifi comedy.

SuckerPunch              
so this one is going to be a bit longer than usual, the trailer got a lot of people hyped to see this movie.
i wasnt able to see it in theaters so i saw it online, i was disappointed the plot is simple a greedy uncle wants the heritage of his niece and puts her in a mental asylum and shes scheduled for a lobotomy what unravels when we get there is a combination of alternate realities that dont make sense , some cool action scenes finding out that this movie doesnt have a strong story.

 

Hop

so this had its moments though there werent many to be honest, eb had some likeable traits but didnt fully convinced me. its ok mainly for kids.

Insidious

for everyone saying this is the best horror movie of the year, i dont think so but i agree that it is good specially at the beginning i didnt liked the second half of the movie mainly when they were in the astral project. apart from that it has some creepy moments and a dark atmosphere most of the movie.

Source Code

 so parallel realities is the major theme of this movie, i wont tell the twist because it would ruin the movie for a lot of people, what i can say is this the ending was ok i thought something completely different was going to happen based on how the story unfolded.

Rio

this was a fun movie, one of the most colourful movies of the year mainly because of all the exotic birds that are in the beginning of the film. i liked how the relationship between blu and belle blossomed as the film progressed. i liked the bulldog and the toucan they had some funny parts

Dylan Dog: Dead of Night

 a movie based on and italian comic that doesnt take anything from the source materials, this has zombies, werewolves and vampires and in spite of that its not a good movie. though marcus dylans sidekick had his moments that were funny.

Thor

 the first of three marvel movies that premiered this year, the introduction of the god of thunder to a lot of people tying with the avengers movie like iron man and the incredible hulk had done before. solid acting , the stuff on earth was ok but everything in asgard was amazing hope in the sequel we can see more of that. and hemsworth did a good job portraying thor.

Kung Fu Panda 2

 one of the most fun animated movies of the year, i liked how they developed pos story and how he form a bond of friendship with some of the furious five they looked like a team of friends. and the introduction of the other masters was great.

X-Men First Class

i admit this movie surprised me after x mens wolverine i was about to give up on the franchise, but first class reinserted what made the first two movies fun but adding elements that the others didnt have. i liked magnetos backstory fassbender was great in the role, mcavoy as xavier was good too. i scratched my head when one of the characters died at the i think middle of the film darwin. because i read up on him and he doesnt die.
