Man on a Ledge, Sam Worthington Can Stand on my Ledge

The title isn't suppose to be dirty. I mean stand on my ledge as a in a ledge outside my window. Haha. Well Man on a Ledge is freaking awesome (Rotten Tomatoes and Katie can suck it!) Sam Worthington is super hot and so is Jamie Bell and so is Edward Burns. This movie was super intense and good. I was on the edge of my seat (Woman on an edge).
The movie is about Nick Cassidy (Sam Worhtington) who is an escape convict standing on the ledge of a huge building in New York. Nick is an excop who was accused of stealing the Monarch diamond from David Englander (Ed Harris). When negotiators go to talk him down (Edward Burns and Elizabeth Banks), the feel that his is not out to jump but has alterior motives. His alterior motives is to get the Monarch diamond from David Englander and prove that Nick is innocent. Nick's brother, Joey (Jamie Bell), and Joey's girlfriend, Angie (Genesis Rodriguez) are sneaking into Englander's bank to get to the diamond.
This movie is super intense and there are some twists and turns that you don't expect. Then Sam Worthington is jumping around on the building and the made me super nervous. I didn't want him to fall (you know that he won't but it still makes you nervous). If you like heist movies and hot dudes, check this movie out. The movie is rated PG-13 for violence and some language.

Contraband, Oh Yeah

Contraband, awesome. Mark Wahlberg, freaking hot. This movie had lots of action and crazy twists and turns. Mark Wahlberg is his usual good self by being a bad guy while fighting even badder guys and he does it with hot abs. Haha.
Mark Wahlberg is Chris Farraday, an exsmuggler. He got out of smuggling to have a family, but his brother in law, Andy (Caleb Laundry Jones), messes up his smuggling job when Customs boards the boat he is on. Andy then dumps the drugs he was hiding and goes to the man who he was working for. The man, Tim Briggs (Giovanni Ribisi), is not happy and hurts Andy. Chris tries to reason with Briggs, but Briggs wants the money and gives him two weeks to get it to him or he will come after Chris's family. So to get the money, Chris gets onto a cargo ship to Panama City to buy 50 million dollars of counterfeit money. Chris and his friend, Sebastian (Ben Foster), set up the deal and get Chris and Andy on the boat. Chris devises a plan to get the boat to stop long enough for him to get the money from the dealer and get back on the boat and hide the money. But the captain, Captain Camp (JK Simmons) is suspicious and is watching Chris. When Chris goes to get the money, the plan goes wrong and starts Chris into a tailspin that jeopardizes the plan, while at home, Briggs is harassing Chris's wife, Kate (Kate Beckinsale).
This movie was very good. A bit violent and a lot of swearing, but a good movie if you like movies like the Italian Job (also starring Mark Wahlberg). There was one twist in the movie that surprised me and the end was making me really worried, but of course it all comes together in a way you don't expect. I would say check it out!
