Parental guidance

Trailer: http://youtu.be/Hgt5KOVKoqc

Sypnosis: Old school grandfather Artie (Billy Crystal), who is accustomed to calling the shots, meets his match when he and his eager-to-please wife Diane (Bette Midler) agree to babysit their three grandkids when their type-A helicopter parents (Marisa Tomei, Tom Everett Scott) go away for work. But when 21st century problems collide with Artie and Diane's old-school methods of tough rules, lots of love and old-fashioned games, it's learning to bend--and not holding your ground--that binds a family together.

Review: just your predictable family comedy movie the same old predictable moral of the story with brand mention for ESPN and even tony hawk appears. Watch only if you have nothing else to do. Good cast though.

Kung Fu Panda Review + Trailer + Sypnosis

Have you watched kungfu panda yet?
No?
Just one simple question okay?

WHY AND WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
GO BOOK YOUR TICKETS NOW!
GO HEAD TO THE CINEMA NEAR YOU AND WATCH IT!

uh, still not working for you eh? haiz. ok. let me convince everyone to watch it.
Here it goes:

1) MAGNIFICIANT ANIMATION!!!
This is seriously a great work done by DreamWorks Animations! The animations looked so real. The animations have like real human features, movement and stuff and I felt as if I was in the movie not watching it. Take that pixar and let's see how great Wall-e is going to be since its being dragged like way way way too long.
2) GREAT CASTS!!
Jack Black was able to played his part really well while still letting his personality shine through! All the actors were able to make each of their characters their own.

3) EVERYTHING WAS BRIGHT, VIBRANT AND FUN FUN FUN!
I felt as if the movie seemed to jump off the screen. The art design for each of the different areas like the Jade Palace, The Valley of Peace, and the Chorh-Gom Prison are breathtaking. not to mention the shading, water, and fire effects. Especially impressive was how smooth all of the scenes flowed together. With all that was going on and the speed at which it was happening, I thought it might not look that great, but I was proven wrong.
4) KICKASS FIGHT SHOTS!!
This isn't your normal cheesy animated fights. These are in your face, edge-of-your seat martial arts fight scenes. When The Matrix first came out on DVD, were you one of those who watched just the fight scenes over and over? I was one of those people, and I can tell you I'm going to do the same for parts of Kung Fu Panda.
5) OVERWHELMING COMEDY!!!!
i think the laughter rating was great, the theatre burst into laughter at the many different parts of the movie together. From the start to the end of the movie, there was funny funny funny all over it.
6) THERE'S A MORAL OF THE STORY!
no matter what your age, a good piece of advice embeded in a nice movie is always a plus isn't it? NO?!?! okay atleast for me it was. I like sentiments. just like moses lim in under one roof. LOL.
OK. have i made you wanna watch the movie? Atleast a little? Good. SO let me tell you about the story. Promise me you will watch the two great trailers and catch the movie in the cinemas soon okay?

Just like heaven


Elizabeth Masterson (Reese Witherspoon) is a work-alcoholic San Francisco doctor with no time for a life and David Abbott is a grieving widow. One fateful night will change both of their lives forever.

Dr. Masterson meddling older sister, Abby, has set her up on yet another blind dinner date at her house and has ordered her younger sister to join. Running late and excited about a recent promotion, Elizabeth doesnt see the semi-truck coming at her head on before its too late.

David Abbott (Mark Ruffalo) has decided to rent out the cozy apartment with the comfortable couch as a place to drink himself numb to his wife's untimely death two years ago. One night, (after some heavy drinking), he is shocked to see a woman yelling at him to get out of her apartment. It turns out to be Elizabeth, who doesnt believe she is dead, even though no one else can see her but him and she can't psychically pick anything up.

With the help of an eccentric bookseller who has the gift of reading aura's, David finds that Elizabeth isnt dead, she is too alive of a spirit to be dead. With the help of clues in her apartment and Elizabeth's shaky memory, he learns that she really isnt dead, but in a coma from her accident and has some unfinished business that has enabled her to stay on Earth.

Now, he is a race aganist time and the hospital to stop them from pulling her plug and killing the woman he loves.



here's the trailer:








Review from rotten tomatoes:


Delightfully sweet like a lollipop, Just Like Heaven is a dreamy romantic comedy that may give you a toothache when it attempts to broach difficult end of life issues by throwing a cherry on top.
