Act of Valor, Dedicated to Our Serivce Men and Women

Act of Valor was a very good movie. If you like movies that are like this, then this is one for you. There were explosions like every five seconds and shoot outs and awesomeness all over. The cool thing is that the actors are real active duty Navy SEALs. When I went, there was approximately 5 women to about 40 men. Haha.
The movie is about a team of Navy SEALs that have to go after a terrorist who wants to bomb America. It starts with a CIA operative getting captured and tourtured to give up the information that she knows. The SEALs are called in to go and get her back out and find out any information that she had. They go into Costa Rica to get her and have huge shoot outs. They find out that the bad guys are working with a terrorist who is going to bombs in the the US. The bombs are ceramic ball bearings that are hidden in vests that explode and do a ton of damage. They follow these terrorists to the town of Mexicali and have to take out the terrorists and the Mexican cartels that are hiding them in the city.
The movie is very fast paced and loud with some sad parts. At the movie, there were a bunch of guys from different brances of the military, including the Navy, and it sounded like they didn't like it so much. So if you are in the armed services, I kind of don't suggest it for you, but if you are a civilian like me who likes war movies, I highly recommend it. I will say that the movie is rated R for war violence, war gore, and language, so if you have a adversion to a lot of blood don't see it.

This Means War, Funny

This Means War is really good. I was laughing so hard. There was a lot of action and comedy and hot dudes. What would you do if you had two hot guys fighting over you? Well this is what the movie is about.
FDR (Chris Pine) and Tuck (Tom Hardy) are two best friends who work for the CIA. They are assigned to take down a man named Heinrich, but fail to capture him. So they are sent home to wait for him to turn up. Tuck then decides that he needs to start dating again and so he goes online and puts his profile up. Meanwhile, Lauren (Reese Witherspoon) is a single, working woman who constantly keeps running into her old boyfriend, Steve (Warren Christie, the guy from Apollo 18). So her friend, Trish (Chelsea Handler) decides that she needs to put Lauren up on the internet too. Well Lauren finds Tuck and they go out on a date. They hit if off and have a wonderful time.  After the date, Lauren runs into FDR and he gets her to go on a date with him. This puts Lauren in a dilemma because she likes both of the guys. She goes on a bunch of dates to try to determine which she likes more. Tuck and FDR find out that they are dating the same girl and decide that they need to let her pick. That doesn't mean that they are not going to try to sway her vote. They bug her house and track her to find out what she likes and all these covert things. They also try to ruin each other's dates by hilarious means. All the while Heinrich is looking for them to make them pay.
This movie is really funny and awesome. There are some cute parts in it for the girls to enjoy. When I was in the theater, all I could hear was guys laughing super hard, so this also a good movie for any guy. It was fun to try to figure out who Lauren would choose and see if you guess right in the end. If it were me, I would have a hard time choosing, too. I would probably have to choose Chris Pine so I could say that I accomplished a life goal and got with Captain Kirk. Haha.

The Bourne Legacy First Trailer!!!! (8/3)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1194173/#lb-vi2705301785

OMG! I have been waiting for this! Jeremy Renner is soooooo hot. So excited this looks super cool.

Chronical, I Wish I Had Telokenisis

Chronical was pretty darn good. What would you do if you suddenly had the power to move things with your mind? I would probably do a bunch of stupid things, then become a superhero ("with great power..."). This movie is simple in its special effects, but still looks very real.
This movie is about Andrew (Dane DeHaan), a kid who buys a video camera to document his life and show what is happening to him in his home (his mom is dying and his dad beats him). Andrew goes to school with his cousin, Matt (Alex Russell), who tells him that he needs to be more cool and go to a party. Andrew goes to the party with Matt and ends up out in the woods with Matt and the cool kid, Steve (Michael B. Jordan). There is a huge hole in the ground and they decided to go down and find out what is in it. In the hole, there is a strange looking, glowing, crystal-like thing. Then the ground starts shaking and the screen goes black. The story then rejoins some days later where they are practicing their new powers in the backyard. They had the ability to control objects with the power of their minds. The more they use their power, the stronger they get, eventually getting to the point where they can fly. One day when they are all driving in the car, a truck pulls up behind and is honking at them. Well Andrew uses his powers on the car and ends up pushing the car over the road and into a pond. The man is the car is injured and they decide that they need to have rules on their powers so they don't hurt people. The boys continue to get stronger and some problems arise.
This movie was great and kind of funny. It makes you think of what you would do if you were in the same spot as these boys. What would you do if you came across great power like this? I suggest you check this movie out. Rate PG-13 for intense action and violence, thematic material, some language, sexual content and teen drinking.

7500 (10/31/2012)

Screw snakes on a plane, this movie has ghosts!!!
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1975159/#lb-vi968925465

This is the first trailer for the movie 7500. I decided that I want to see it cause the main guy is kind of attractive and it's a ghost movie. Super cool looking. I love scary movies!

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!
