Governess
PostedMarch 17, 2011
A lot of stuff has been done with this title but I like this one the best. The pace is not slow but not fast either and the corky one liners of humor makes this movie a comfortable and entertaining film to enjoy. Jane Eyre was hated by her aunt and was sent to a very strict boarding school, where a “time out” just means its a break from the teacher not to discipline you again. After leaving the school Jane (Mia Wasikowska) was employed at Thornfield Hall as a governess by a Mr Rochester (Michael Fassbender). While employed, a strong love yearning for one another begins to grow between Jane and Rochester. A secret of Rochester may rip them apart, leaving Jane the only love she has ever known. 4 stars out of 5
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Martians Needs A Big Momma
PostedMarch 17, 2011
Every so often a bunch of kids are born on mars. The supervisor (Mindy Sterling) has made a decision to steal moms from Earth. Their first target, Milo’s house. Milo after an argument not to eat his broccoli finds himself telling his mom “his life would be better off without her”. While asleep that night the Martians came and took Milo’s mom. Before they could take off in their ship Milo manages to get inside the ship and go to mars with them. On mars he makes a great friend with a fellow human named Gribble (Dan Fogler). Willing to help them also is KI (Elisabeth Harnois). KI who is the assistant to the supervisor. It’s a mad dash for Milo and his friends to save his mom from the martians. Love the Gribble and Ki. Fun and entertaining. Milo gets a little whinny. A big improvement from “Polar Express” but still I think the kids are gonna think the characters are creepy. 3 ½ stars out of 5

What Big Eyes You Have
PostedMarch 17, 2011
The werewolf has been around the village of Daggerhorn for two generations. First, killing entire families then over the years the wolf was content with animal offerings. Tonight is the dawn of the Blood Moon and offerings are not enough anymore for the wolf. It wants more. Some of the villagers have sought the assistance of one Father Solomon (Gary Oldman) who is an expert in this field. Seems like the wolf is after Red Riding Hood (Amanda Seyfried) but she has a love, a protector named Peter (Shiloh Fernandez). “Under the blood moon, once bitten is a man cursed”. Before the werewolf kills or turns all the people of Daggerhorn into werewolves it’s a mad dash to find and kill this beast. A little slow at first but a good movie. I mean were looking at a kid’s tale, a priest, a village, and a childhood sweetheart. PG-13 1 hr. 40 min. The attention goes back and forth between the Red Riding Hood and the wolf, not to mention the heartthrob of Red. That’s where it lost it for me. But still entertaining 3 ½ stars out of 5
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Smallville and Twilight Fusion
PostedMarch 4, 2011
A evil alien race called Mogadorians attacked the planet Lorien killing everyone except 9 special Lorien Teens and their guardians. The teens escaped to Earth. The 9 can only be killed in sequence. These special Lorian teens each possess legacy powers. As they mature a new legacy is revealed but the Mog’s have traced the teens to earth and they are now being hunted down one by one. One was killed in Malaysia, Two in England, and Three was murdered in Kenya. John is Number Four. Staying alive and finding the others is all that matters. You want to talk about a meal, how about a fusion of the Smallville formula and a sprinkle of Twilight. This movie has a little bit of both, just enough to capture all age groups in what I foresee a Healthy Franchise on the road for Success. I’m not a critic but I know what makes money and THIS IS MONEY. A must see and a 5 out 5 stars.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Purgatory
PostedMarch 4, 2011
Imagine seeing all the suffering on earth and not being able to do anything about it. This is hell. Especially if you’re John Milton (Nicolas Cage). When John died his 16 year old daughter hung around the wrong people and she ended up in a cult. Later she married a Hippie tree hugging husband and they both had a baby girl. In comes Jonah King (Billy Burke) who steals her baby, and executes the couple in cold blood. John saw all this from hell and he breaks out of the underworld in a 1964 Buick Riviera. Not far behind comes the accountant from hell (William Fichtner) to bring Mr Milton back. Jonah King’s plan is to sacrifice the baby at the next full moon to open the gates hell. John meets up with a waitress (Amber Heard) and they both run off to save his daughter. I liked it. Look it’s a plate of steaks. Nothing fancy just meat. A A.D.D movie. Straight up shoot 'em up movie. 4 out 5 stars
